Our Curriculum
Our Emergent Curriculum is a child initiated, teacher facilitated program that offers play based learning which reflects the interests and needs of the children in our care. Our role as educators is to document, observe, and engage children in projects both short and long term, as well as daily learning experiences. These experiences and projects help develop children’s social, emotional, communication, language, literacy, cognitive and physical skills. We use a tool titled “The Continuum of Development” (located in the ELECT document), to derive our goals for the children; and as a result we are able to focus on the children’s individual skills, as well as goals for the classroom as a whole.
In addition to providing quality programming, we also offer a yoga program for all children enrolled. Yoga provides an opportunity for children to enhance their concentration, increase flexibility and balance, improve their general well-being, boost their confidence and relax their minds.
Muppets Children’s Centre is a very multicultural childcare centre. We have staff who speak a variety of languages including English, Spanish, French, Persian, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Mandarin, Chinese, Cantonese, and Tagalog. This is very beneficial to open the lines of communication with parents, guardians, and other family members alike. We are a very accessible centre when it comes to Public Transit located right on the Bloor/Danforth subway line across from Main Station and walking distance to the GO Transit.
As a licensed child care centre, we are inspected at least once a year by the Ministry of Education, local Municipalities and Public Health to ensure that our centre meets the requirements set out in the Day Nurseries Act. There is a minimum of one Registered Early Childhood Educator per room, along with assistants that possess a thorough knowledge of child development. Ongoing training is provided to all staff that assist in the care of your child.
First Aid and criminal reference checks are mandatory for all staff.
