About
We offer programs that encourage young children to nurture their nature through fun and exploration.
Our history
Merita childcare family was established in 2016. With our experience, expertise, and multicultural background, we create a fun and safe environment where young children can learn, grow, and thrive.
Throughout the COVID19 pandemic, we grew stronger and became a proud childcare family that provided services to our essential workers. What we do makes a huge impact on our children and their families.
- 2 Child Care Centers in British Columbia.
- Year-round childcare in a safe, nurturing environment.
- Supporting each child and family individually.
Our graduates
As well as the local language in each country our preschools are based in, we offer various ‘immersion classes’ in the afternoons, such as Mandarin, French or Arabic. In some centers, we give bilingual lessons – although primarily, the native tongue of every Safari Kid kindergarten branch is English!
Our community
Our families come from nearby neighborhoods, creating a close-knit environment and strong parent partnerships. Whether we’re close to home or near the office, our center is ideal for busy working families and easy to get to – for pick-up and drop-off or to stop in for a visit.
We use fun, research-based, multi-sensory strategies to help children develop early learning skills, including Lively Letters, Open Court for phonics and literacy, Handwriting Without Tears, and Everyday Math. We use Responsive Classroom as the basis for our social and emotional learning curriculum throughout the school.
Health & Safety
Our top priority is your children’s health, safety and well-being. We strictly follow Fraser Health Authorities health and safety guidelines.
