As a centre operated by qualified Early Childhood Educators and assistants, it is our goal to give the children new and exciting opportunities to learn about themselves and the world around them. Our mission is to create a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment that will develop and guide the social, emotional, intellectual, physical, and creative growth of each child.
Chez Tintin et Milou : Childcare services
We offer childcare for children aged 30 months to five years of age. The daycare gives children an introduction to the French language and culture. Children are encouraged to use the basic French they are learning on a daily basis and are given new opportunities to expand their language skills, no matter which level they start a
Before and After-School services
Offered to children attending the Collines-d’Or francophone school and Lloyd George Elementary, our before and after school program allows children’s immersion into French to continue beyond the classroom, in fun and social ways.

Our educative values
At Chez Tintin et Milou it is our belief that children learn best and most naturally through play. It is our goal to plan experiences and activities that are derived from individual and group needs and interests. By getting the children’s input into planning and observing them during play we can achieve this goal, giving them valuable learning opportunities.
Children are provided with a variety of different toys, activities, and games on a daily basis. They enjoy songs and stories in both French and English, as well as group and individual games and activities. Each day includes time where children can choose freely among the different areas of the centre. A circle time, with stories, songs, or group discussions is also a part of each day. At circle time children take turns listening to others and speaking when it is their turn.
Our program puts an emphasis on developing social skills among the children. These skills include problem solving and expressing thoughts and feelings to others. Educators encourage the children to work through different social situations with their peers and offer assistance when needed.
