Dream of owning your own small family business?

Whether you’re a stay-at-home-parent, or a seasoned Early Childhood Educator, you have something to offer families. Be present, and earn a sustainable income.

We work with each provider to offer set-up guidance, onboarding support, and training.

Our program adheres to the Family Dayhome Standards of Alberta, and works with providers to learn the framework, guidelines and requirements. Consultants provide monthly home monitoring visits to observe the program, the children and the home. These visits are an essential part what we do, and offer our providers with ongoing support of their program.

With access to available government funding, qualifying Educators can receive reimbursements for course costs from approved institions upon completion of these courses.
