We offer an educational, nurturing, and fun environment for babies, toddlers, and young children. At Rainforest Learning Centre, we do much more than babysitting. While keeping daycare prices as affordable as we can, our focus is to keep your child occupied with fun activities while ensuring they are adequately prepared for kindergarten or grade school!
We instill positive behaviours and educational values in children.
Our toddler programs are effective because they provide a customized curriculum of structured play and academic learning. It is designed to always keep your child engaged and interested. Your child will love coming to our Coquitlam and Burnaby daycare — and may never have a reason to be bored!
Our team of licensed early childhood educators love working with kids and are dedicated to being attentive to your child’s needs while guiding them through positive behaviours and constructive social interaction.
At our local Coquitlam day care centre, your child benefits from the following:
Respectful peer interaction
Whether it be working alongside an older ‘buddy’ during our ‘Buddy Days,’ learning how to share, taking turns and playing nicely with others, or respecting teachers, your child will practise being mindful and considerate of others around them.
Creative interest
Through our art activities such as painting, crafts, music, acting, singing, and dancing, your child will be able to positively use their bodies to release energy and have fun!
Acquiring an academic foundation
We present a variety of topics related to math, science and English. To do this, we use phonics, workbooks, colouring, and more.
Confidence and independence
Some young children may not have experienced a day without their parents. Furthermore, infants can have adverse emotional reactions in an unfamiliar environment. We aim to make this transition into preschool or daycare smoother by keeping them occupied with tasks and activities and challenging their brains while ensuring they are having fun. 
Benefit from meaningful, ‘no time wasted’ days at our local Coquitlam daycare centre.
We believe toddlers and preschool children are eager to learn. They just have to be in an environment that properly facilitates learning. When your child walks, crawls, or runs through our doors, we will make sure their curiosities about their surroundings are met with engaging and focused activities.
Our Coquitlam daycare is not just here to ‘watch’ your child.
We’ll prove it to you! Here are just some of the things your child will experience at our group daycare:
- Circle time: Where we share stories, sing and listen to music, and even practise sign language!
- Snack time: One of our initiatives is to encourage healthy eating and learn about food in a tangible way. Children bring in their own fruit and vegetable snacks to share with the class.
- Theme days: Usually centered around a ‘nature’ component. Whether it be the rainforest, trees, or animals, we design interactive activities around a theme to increase a child’s overall understanding of it.
- Academic phonics: We introduce math and science concepts in ways that can be learned by all ability levels. We also aim to improve English speaking and vocabulary while learning a bit of French too! All at preschool, age-appropriate levels, of course!
- Field trips: Our group daycare values real-life experiences where children can discover more about the city in which they live. We go to the bowling alley, community parks, the recycling depot, Science World and the library.
- Play time: Both indoors and outdoors. We make sure your child gets lots of fresh air — especially with convenient access to our rooftop playground!
