Little Buddies Extended Care Program
Extended Hours (all ages)
Providing the opportunity for child care at evening hours will help parents that may either work late or shift work. Children attending the extended care program will have fun participating in activities like crafts, science and group time where we share exciting new adventures and have cooperative play with new friends. Homework time is allotted to make sure this is done before going home so parents do not have to worry about doing it in the morning or when they get home late. Dinner is served as part of the extended hours care for families that may not have time to feed their children before work or if working shift work and the child attends care at dinner time. Children may have some free time to themselves while the other children are eating and we will continue with group time after dinner time. Children will have a light snack before getting ready for rest, along with their bedtime routine of brushing their teeth and putting pjs on. When parents pick up the children will be ready to transition right to bed and all they have to do is tuck them in and say their goodnights. |

When using extended care service the rate is based on the total hours used. eg if your child attends the centre from 2pm till 11pm the rate would be a full day extended care charge only. If you have any questions on how the rate works please just ask we will be more than happy to help. |
