Bambi Child Care Newsletter

Dear Parents,

Once again, we will remind you to please bring your children to the daycare no later than 9:30AM so they can fully enjoy our program. Preschool room children are going on a field trip to the fire station on Monday the 16th. Our program has an open door policy, which means that parents are always welcome to visit the daycare any time. If you like to volunteer on any field trips or just come and read stories or share some of your cultural experiences with the children, we will be happy to have you.

Our staff members see your children learn and grow. By completing observations, they can identify developmental milestones in your child’s life. This helps us develop programs that cater to your child’s learning abilities. All these observations are located in a binder in your child’s room.

Dear Parents,

We have created an online parent committee. So far only 3 parents are participating. We would like to invite everyone who is interested, to email: bpevzner@shaw.ca with Parent Committee as the subject line.

This Friday, our staff completed part of the professional workshops about observation and planning for different age groups.

Spring is slowly arriving and some days it is very wet outside, but children still like to go and play. So please bring extra clothes, snow pants and boots for your child. As some of you already noticed, we have a new staff member who joined our team:

Kawyar Mohammed  has her level 1 certificate and she is working in Toddler Room 1 and the Baby Room.

She is enjoying working with your children.

Michelle from the Southwood Public Library is visiting our center every second Friday to read stories to your children and to teach them some nursery rhymes.

Dear Parents:

Our daycare will be closed Monday February 20 2012 for Family Day.

Last month we started a music and gymnastic program for ages 19 months-6 years. The music teacher is coming every Wednesday. She spends half an hour in each room teaching different songs, where children have an opportunity to dance and play different instruments. On Thursday, the gymnastic teacher uses a variety of props(hoops, sticks, balls, scarves) to teach the children flexibility, strength, and movement.

We still are asking all the parents to bring 3 or 4 pictures of your children and their families to make individual posters to be displayed in the rooms.

In December, we asked parents who would like to join our parent committee to let our staff members know, so far we have had one parent approach us. We know that parents are busy and have a limited amount of free time; as a result we are proposing a parent committee communicate via email regarding any questions or suggestions in order to improve your child’s experience in our program. If you would like to join our parent committee, please contact us directly at bpevzner@shaw.ca with the subject line “parent committee”.

Yours Truly,

Jane Pevzner
