Parents and Children Together (PACT)
What We Offer...

 

PACT is a playgroup/preschool/parent program for you and your children, aged 0-5, to attend together.

 

For Your Child

The playgroup is stimulating, child-directed, and supports your child’s development through play centres that consist of play-dough, painting, crafts, floor toys, dress-up, books, puzzles, building blocks, song/music instruments and more!

For You

​​Along with the playgroup, PACT offers a parent program. While the children play, parents, grandparents and caregivers participate in thought-provoking discussion groups that are facilitated by a parent mentor. These discussions focus on child development and navigating the joys and challenges of parenting, while supporting caregiver friendships.

Help your child build confidence, curiosity, communication skills, and cooperativeness by participating in a fun, centre-based playgroup/preschool. They will gain readiness skills for school and life! Learn about respectful parenting practices and come out and make some new friends! 

"This is a great program for parents of preschool children."
