Shaping little minds since 1996

Pioneer Daycare centre is operated by Pioneer Education Society, a non-profit organization established in July 1996. We are proud to be the first bilingual daycare centre to be found in Richmond, B.C.

Welcome to Pioneer Daycare

The center provides full time and part time daycare programs for children aged 2.5 to 5. We operate 5 days a week from 8am to 6pm. We are open year round, closing only for statutory holidays.

All our staff are experienced qualified Early Childhood Educators licensed with Provincial Community Care Facilities Licensing Board.

We are happy to have the opportunity to work together with you and are sure that your child will enjoy a fruitful learning experience here.

Our Philosophy

Every child is unique

At Pioneer Daycare Centre we believe each child is unique, with an individual pattern and timing of growth and development. By providing opportunities for active participation through play and positive interaction with the world around them, the child's individual development is fostered towards establishing a positive self-concept.

Our Program

Learning through play

Our program is designed to help young children to develop socially, emotionally, intellectually and physically. We recognize playing as a means of learning. We have set up the environment into "learning centres" and encourage the children to choose those areas which are of interest to them.

The theme approach is used to facilitate the learning process. Each month a new theme is introduced to the children through the integration of literacy, activities, music, science experiment, field trip and many other avenues of learning.

The group care setting is a valuable family support system, allowing parents to pursue their own interests with peace of mind for their child's welfare.
