Staffing

We actively search for staff that brings unique qualities to our center. Each member of our staff has either a University degree and/or an Early Childhood Education. In addition, each staff member has training in the education of children with special needs and each staff takes additional training during the school year.

We have been fortunate not to have a high turnover of staff. Most of our administration, teachers, and assistants have been with the Preschool for more than three years, compared to and average stay of 18 months for staff in many childcare centers.

For our enrolment of 35 children our staff consists of: Director, Assistant Director/Resource, five full-time teachers, five full-time program assistants, cleaner, and a cook.

Depending on enrolment, our teacher to child ratio is 1 to 3 compared to an average ratio of 1 to 7 in most childcare centers!
