Dedicated care and attention for your child
The Radiance Children's Centre provides dedicated care for children aged 19 months to 6 years old in Calgary. We’re committed to delivering more than expected, and to supporting each child’s healthy growth and development.
We put your child first and respond to their unique way of learning and developing so they feel seen and heard.
Feeling seen, heard, and understood is crucial to children’s healthy well-being and development. Our enhanced staff-to-child ratio ensures each child has our attention and opportunities to interact with a caring Child Support worker.
More staff. More care.
In Partnership with Parents.
At Radiance Children’s Centre, parents are partners - because you know your child like no one else. Through communication and involvement, we problem solve and address the needs of your child together.
We use two-way communication, including a daily child-friendly app, monthly newsletters, frequent family social events, bi-annual parent-staff meetings, frequent formal and informal meetings, and private tours.
serious about play.
We believe that children learn through play and that play is the work of the child. Through play, children learn about and experience the world. We use evidence-based tools and a wide range of toys, activities, and games to support these mighty learners to continue exploring and delight in their discoveries.
Theraplay: builds and enhance attachment, self-esteem, trust in other and joyful engagement.
Sensory play: explores a child’s way of examining, discovering, categorizing and making sense of the world.
committed to healthy diets.
We care about your children’s growth and development, and we believe healthy nutrition is the best fuel for play, learning, smiles, and general well-being.
That’s why our menus are evaluated by a Registered Dietician to make sure they meet the highest nutritional value, and our chef prepares all snacks and lunches on-site from scratch.
You’ll also get recipes, tips, and short videos so you can bring their favourite Radiance snacks home. Our centre is a nut-free environment, and staff pay close attention to each child’s allergy and dietary restrictions.
evidence-based child development.
Radiance Children’s Centre is dedicated to early childhood brain and social-emotional development. The centre uses child-friendly and evidence-based approaches to ensure that each child’s way of learning and developing is seen. Then we incorporate it into the daily curriculum, so children can explore, learn, experiment, discover, and grow.
Each day we provide children with stimulating and nurturing activities and play that foster their creativity and curiosity. Our team of professionals uses the PATHS curriculum, GRIT evidence-based pyramid models, Alberta’s Early Learning & Care (FLIGHT) framework, Theraplay, and sensory play to enhance the inclusive early learning and care children receive.
