Our West Island Daycare Activities
At Garderie DDO, our West Island daycare’s educational program targets the overall development of a child, with particular attention on intellectual, language, motor, and social skills development.
The educational program is based on the Ministère de la Famille’s “Accueillir la petite enfance” directive. Each day, a child experiences directed activities as well as various play areas within the classroom: pretend play, handling (blocks, cars, figurines), arts and crafts, and reading. Experiences from all of these activities promote your child’s overall development.
