ABOUT CECP
About Us
Caledon East Children’s Place (CECP) is a non-profit, licensed child care centre under the Ministry of Education. Since 1988, we’ve proudly served families in the Caledon East community, offering high-quality early learning and care for toddler and preschool children.
We are also proud partners of both the DPCDSB and the PDSB, offering before and after school programs that support children and families during their transition to and from the school day.
In addition to child care, CECP is a long-standing hub for professional growth—providing meaningful employment opportunities and hands-on field placements for student educators.
ABOUT US
Our Commitment
Caledon East Children’s Place is committed to ensuring that every child is:
- Valued as an individual and connected to others in our environment. They form authentic caring relationships with others, contribute and create a sense of belonging with their peers, their group, their classroom community and their world.
- Nurtured and supported to promote positive well-being, healthy development and a positive sense of self. Children are reinforced with positive forms of attachment to support their development.
- An active participant in their environment. They are co-constructors of their world. Children are active learners that engage as they plan, play, inquire and recount their experiences. They problem solve, think creatively and express ideas which is essential to their success and development.
- Recognized as capable, competent, curious and rich in potential. Children are encouraged to express themselves physically, verbally, or through the use of different materials. This promotes positive communication; language skills and a strong sense of self where they can be become equal partners and develop problem solving skills. Each child is valued as an individual.
