Collingwood Neighbourhood Centre - Grenfell School Age Child Care Centre

Collingwood Neighbourhood House (CNH) provides services and community development initiatives aimed at improving the quality of life of residents in the Renfrew-Collingwood area of east Vancouver. Activities are targeted primarily to low and middle income families. Services are delivered in a variety of languages with emphasis on building social connections, capacity, cross-cultural sharing and life-long learning. Residents of all ages participate in educational, cultural, social, health, economic and recreational services, as well as contribute towards building a safe and caring community through volunteer contributions, leadership and partnership development.

CNH is a non-profit, social services agency serving the community since 1985. We are guided by our vision, mission, and values statements to provide services and opportunities to our community. We offer licensed child care (including $10/day child care), immigrant services, recreation, youth, seniors and intercultural opportunities, including programs related to food, arts and celebrations, community initiatives, intercultural projects, and homelessness outreach.

Our wide range of age-appropriate activities and opportunities promote confidence and success. Each day includes a variety of activities such as creative arts and crafts, music and movement, literacy skills, drama, indoor/outdoor play for fine and gross motor development, community outings (walks, library trips, etc.), all with a focus on early learning with plenty of time for free play and friendship.

Parents are encouraged to apply for the Affordable Child Care Benefit, which can be applied toward the child care fee (application available at http://bit.ly/BCACCB).
