We offer a range of classes tailored to support your child’s growth at every developmental stage
At Orchard Brae Early Learning Center, we believe in providing a well-rounded and enriching learning experience for every child. We’ve thoughtfully integrated elements from four highly respected educational philosophies: Waldorf, Montessori, Reggio Emilia, and the Alberta Flight Program. Each of these approaches brings unique strengths to our program, and together they create a holistic environment where children can thrive academically, socially, emotionally, and creatively.
