Childcare in North Vancouver, Metro Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Lonsdale Creek Day Care Centre - Creekside
We believe that children are unique individuals whose behavior and development are affected by their culture, environment, and experiences. We also believe that communication between parents, children, and caregivers is essential when guiding young children towards a healthy and happy life.
The Lonsdale Creek Daycare Centre Society (LCDCS) first opened at the Lonsdale School Annex site in 1974. Over the years, LCDCS has grown from one small portable unit serving 25 families to eight childcare programs serving 130 families, in three locations. The success of our centres is a testament to our sustainability and longevity in the community.
LCDCS gratefully acknowledges the financial assistance of the Province of British Columbia through the Childcare Operating Fund Grant and the BC Gaming Grant. These funds are used to enhance the quality of care provided to the children at the centres. The society has also received support from the City of North Vancouver to help maintain some of the daycare’s facilities.
We offer Infant Toddler care at our Mahon Park and Jean Christie Building locations. Our staff work hard to form individual bonds with each child and his/her family. They focus on nurturing each child as an individual and enjoy sharing in the stages of their development with their family.
We offer a preschool program within a daycare day at our Annex, Mahon Park and Margaret Heights locations. Staff continually incorporate new and interesting programming and create an engaging environment where spontaneous learning occurs on a daily basis.
At our Margaret Heights location we offer care for children 3 to 5 years of age including children attending kindergarten at Eastview Elementary School. Children are walked to and from the school by a supervisor and spend the remainder of their day engaged in activities in the centre.
