Our Guiding Principles at Jane’s Place ELC
At Jane’s Place ELC, we believe that early childhood education should feel like an extension of home—warm, inviting, and reassuring. When children feel safe and comfortable, they are more open to exploring, learning, and growing at their own pace. Our approach ensures every child is supported in a way that nurtures their individuality while preparing them for future learning.
A Child-Focused, Interest-Based Approach
To get the best out of your children, freedom is the only thing that will allow them to explore their interests.
Our learning environments encourage curiosity, decision-making, and concentration by allowing children to take an active role in their education.
Encouraging Autonomy – We provide a space where children can make choices, helping them build confidence and independence.
Supporting Natural Curiosity – Our educators observe each child’s interests and use them as a foundation for meaningful learning experiences.
Blending Structure with Flexibility – While children lead their learning, our educators provide gentle guidance to ensure they engage with key developmental areas.
Preparing for the Next Step with Our School Readiness Program
Every child develops at their own pace, and we respect that. Our School Readiness Program is designed to meet each child where they are, helping them build the skills needed for a smooth transition to school.
Holistic Development – We focus on all areas of growth, including personal, social, emotional, cognitive, language, literacy, motor skills, and self-help abilities.
Consistent Routines – Familiarity and structure help children feel secure while allowing them to express their individuality.
Engaging and Meaningful Learning – By integrating real-life experiences and hands-on activities, we ensure children develop skills that will support them beyond the classroom.

Diversity is at the heart of Jane’s Place ELC. We celebrate different backgrounds, cultures, and learning styles, ensuring every child and family feels valued and included.
A Blend of Educational Approaches – We draw from various philosophies and techniques to create a well-rounded experience that supports each child's unique learning style.
