Little Leaders home child care programs are built upon learnings from the document How Does Learning Happen? Ontario’s Pedagogy for the Early Years. HDLH? guides licensed child care in Ontario with focus on four foundations essential for every child’s optimal learning and healthy development. 

​

These foundations can be observed every day at Little Leaders:

• belonging

• engagement

• well-being

• expression

 

All Little Leaders programs are based on the beliefs that children are competent learners, and capable of complex thinking, but each child care provider has the unique ability to add their own style and design to their programming.

 
Your child care provider will combine indoor and outdoor activities with resources and materials that will support your child through play-based learning. The child care provider’s guiding hand through child-lead play will aid your little one as they make sense of the world around them.
