I am so pleased with North Nanaimo Early Learning Centre. My daughter loves it there so much she doesn't want to be picked up! She has not only learned her alphabet this year, she has learned the letter sounds and is now reading before entering Kindergarten. She has also learned to count & can make it to 100. The program is more than I expected in a day care - it really is an "early learning centre".Read more
This preschool is an undiscovered gem, I am so glad I found this place! Teachers are very dedicated, full of energy and honest! My child brings a bag full of projects she makes. Teachers also prepare your child for Kindergarten by teaching letters and numbers. Every month they teach the kids a new topic through play, crafts or education.
