Before and After School Care For Every Child

We understand that regular school hours do not fit well with every family’s schedule. That’s why we offer before and after school care in Calgary to provide a safe place for children outside of regular school hours. Why limit fun and learning to school hours? At Seedlings Preschool and Daycare, we think any time is a good time for learning and fun, and are excited to offer additional hours each day to help your child develop. Children are given the opportunity to enjoy outdoor play as well as indoor activities depending on the weather. Children are able to choose from a variety of non-directed fun activities during after care but there are also bi-weekly activities guided by teachers such as: art with plasticine and clay, painting with different techniques, science projects, construction with lego, construction with recycled materials, and garden projects. Our before and after school programs are currently offered at our Strathcona and Palliser locations. Please contact us for hours and age groups.

Testimonials

Seedlings school and the staff at Seedlings are wonderful, nurturing, caring and kind. My son attended Seedlings for 2.5 years. The last year was supplemental kindergarten. The teachers spent 1:1 time with him to improve his Spanish. It was time well spent. I would fully recommend the Seedlings school for young children and kindergarten aged children.

My two kids attended Seedlings Preschool since they were 2.5. The overall experience has been FANTASTIC. They provide a Fun and Nurturing environment for kids between 2.5 - 5 years old. The one on one attention they provide is unique, making sure every kid is engaged and having fun. I would encourage any parent to choose Seedlings as a Preschool for their kids.

Seedlings is a wonderfully apt name for this preschool program in that the environment and the relationship between teacher and child nurtures and supports growth of the young person. The environment is friendly and inviting and the neutral palate and light filled interior gives a sense of calm. Interesting and stimulating materials encourage exploration and discovery. The teachers are genuine and caring in their relationships with each student. They model an attitude of kindness, respect and friendliness.

Both my girls attended the Seedlings Spanish Preschool. I was struggling with what to do for preschool in Cougar Ridge, when a neighbour told us about the Seedlings Spanish Preschool. Making the call to Judith to come check out the preschool was one of the best decisions we ever made. We do not speak Spanish at home, so I was nervous dropping them off the first day, but upon meeting Judith and the other teachers, and seeing the wonderful learning space for the kids at the preschool, it was an easy decision.

What an incredible gift to help them learn another language. Aivry and Marlie both joined when they were 2 & 1/2, and I could not ask for a more loving, supportive and caring learning environment. They get immersed in it immediately and they have absolutely flourished with the Spanish language. I never cease to be impressed when I drop them off at school and listen to them converse back and forth with the teachers in Spanish! It's so amazing! Parents drive from across the city to take their kids to this preschool, so I feel very fortunate to have it so close to home. Judith has built a very strong school with some incredibly talented and caring teachers and assistants. This is the last year for my youngest at the preschool, and I have to say, I'm really going to miss the teachers and the school. Thank you Judith for creating such a wonderful experience for my girls. We're so blessed.

Both of my children have attended Seedlings Spanish preschool. It is a nurturing class setting that I feel has helped my children not only learn the Spanish language, but it has taught them social skills that have prepared them for kindergarten. The teachers are very caring and I have nothing but positive comments about the program and I highly recommend it.

Lynda Fung

Seedlings Strathcona is absolutely amazing. We love it. It is a wonderful learning environment for Spanish and all things Kindergarten/Preschool.We love the learning style and the warmth and caring of the teachers.Our son loves it and looks forward to each and every day at Seedlings. The program is very flexible as well. There are various drop off times and many schedule options.We could not imagine him going anywhere else and know he will miss this lovely school very much when he has to graduate and go to Grade 1 next year. I will miss it too. We love it and would recommend it to anyone!

Magdalena

I am a grandmother of two boys living in the PBP community. I have lived in Oakridge for 42 years. Our 4year old grandson has attended the SEEDLINGS preschool at Nellie for the past two years. I find the preschool teachers OUTSTANDING in their care for the children and the wealth and variety of Spanish/English learning opportunities. I have had experiences with other preschools with my children and grandchildren. Although very good- this experience at SEEDLINGS truly stands apart. I would highly recommend it.

Trudie Clark

Our son loves to go play with his friends! Staff and teachers foster a loving, caring, creative environment in which learning is natural. We love that our son is happy in the morning when we leave him and equally as happy when we greet him. It makes our day knowing he is happy and in caring hands. We really appreciate the community approach the daycare uses.

Fun Never Stop at our After School Care Program

Take advantage of every moment with after school care for your child. If your schedule does not work with regular school hours, give your child a place where they can continue to have fun, learn and develop. We are proud to extend our programs beyond regular school hours to encourage further learning for the children at our Calgary daycare. A love of learning should not be limited to a few hours during the school day; give your child more opportunities to explore with our extended hours.
