Our childcare services offer a warm, safe, nurturing environment where children can learn, grow and thrive. With a focus on safety, creativity and multiculturalism, an experienced MAGMA team aims to create a positive and enriching experience for every child while their parents can focus on building a better future through education and skill development with the tranquility of knowing their child is being well looked after:

• Long term care for children whose parents attend language classes ensuring that they can immerse themselves in their studies with a peace of mind knowing their children are well cared for.
• Short term care is meant for children whose parents participate in workshops or meetings with their settlement counselors; it provides convenient short term care solutions through CNC’s drop-off program allowing children to enjoy our child care services for the day.

HIPPY (Home Instruction for Parents of Preschool Youngsters)

HIPPY is a home-based educational program that empowers parents to prepare their children—ages 3 to 5—for school success. Through weekly home visits, trained home visitors provide parents with structured materials and engaging activities to use with their child for 15–20 minutes each day. The program runs for 30 weeks, from fall to spring.

Throughout the year, families receive 7–9 books, all necessary materials for activities, and are invited to a graduation celebration at the end of the program.

In addition to home visits, HIPPY offers monthly or bi-monthly group meetings. These gatherings give parents the opportunity to:

• Connect with other families
• Participate in workshops
• Attend special events
• Hear from guest speakers
