Welcome to the U of T OISE Early Learning Centre (ELC)!

At the Early Learning Centre, we create a safe and nurturing space where your little ones can explore, learn, and grow to their fullest potential. Our environment is not just secure; it’s also supportive and stimulating, designed to inspire curiosity and joy in every child.

Our Philosophy

We believe in learning through play! Our program is built on the idea that children learn best when they are actively involved in their own experiences. We strive to provide a developmentally appropriate setting that is inclusive and free from bias. Here, every child is valued and encouraged to express themselves freely.

What We Offer

Our program focuses on several key areas of development:

• Creativity: We encourage imaginative play and artistic expression.
• Individual Growth: Each child is unique, and we celebrate their individual journeys.
• Motor Skills: Through fun activities, children develop their physical abilities.
• Listening and Communication Skills: We foster strong communication through interactive play.
• Cognitive Skills: Our activities challenge young minds and promote critical thinking.
• Social and Emotional Skills: We help children learn to interact positively with others and understand their feelings.
• Environmental Awareness: We teach children to appreciate and care for the world around them.

Indoor and Outdoor Activities

We offer a variety of indoor and outdoor activities tailored to meet the individual needs and abilities of each child. Our environment encourages manipulation and exploration of materials, allowing children to engage with the world in a hands-on way.

At the Early Learning Centre, we are dedicated to providing a joyful and enriching experience for every child. Join us in this exciting journey of discovery and growth!
