Philosophy: 

At Discovery Nest Early Learning Center, we aim to guide children using a holistic approach. We provide
experiences for children that are intentional, developmentally appropriate, and meet the unique needs of each
child. We value the importance of early childhood by creating an environment that is up-to-date on best practice
and encourages learning through play.
Mission Statement: 
Creating meaningful experiences that empower children to discover life-long tools for reaching their potential. 

Curriculum: 
We believe that children are important citizens in our world; they are strong, capable, and resourceful. Our classrooms reflect this belief as the materials provided for the children connect them to nature, promote creativity,  require problem solving, and help them create and test theories about their world. As valued citizens in our world, our center provides children with an environment that promotes well-being and longevity. Vitality and health will be nurtured by providing intentional physical activity every week (Discovery Movement), outdoor experiences daily (weather permitting), nutritious food, a safe and clean environment, and minimal sedentary behavior.

Emergent Planning: the classroom programs are created weekly based on observation's of children; personalized to meet the needs of the children. Educators ensure all developmental domains are covered: social, emotional, physical, intellectual, language, and creativity.

Both of my children attend Discovery Nest and I feel like we won the lottery. Each educator is amazing. My children are learning skill to get them ready for school but also emotional skills. This not really a daycare but more a learning centre. They follow an amazing eating plan with both my picky eaters. They truly have become extended family to us and I’m so grateful my kids attend Discovery Nest.

Discovery Nest is an exceptional early learning childcare centre. It is a place where children feel at home, find their own community, and form genuine connections. The staff are extremely warm, kind, and nurturing. They strive to really get to know the children and family unit - everything from the child’s preferences & interests, and the routines & traditions celebrated in the child’s home. Staff are professional, approachable, good communicators (quick to inform as needed and always sharing celebrations) and reflective in their work. They share their planning and observations around your child’s development. All programming is developmentally appropriate and inspiring in so many ways. The environment itself is gorgeous - clean, calming, inviting, and thoughtfully planned with the children in mind. Their snack menu is very diverse and offers lots of variety and options. Our kids always share their excitement about the β€œyummy food” they get to eat there. Discovery Nest incorporates tons of natural, Reggio-inspired materials and loose parts play. They provide rich play activities and value physical activity and outdoor play which is HUGE! Children are always offered with the opportunity to have plenty of time outside, both on site and off site (nature walks). We can’t say enough about β€œThe Nest” - they are simply amazing β™₯️

Our 2 year old son goes to Discovery Nest and absolutely loves it! Finding a daycare can be daunting and we tried two daycares in the past that did not meet our expectations but have struck gold finding Scarlet, Gloria and their team. They provide AMAZING updates and I can tell Jaxon is really learning there because he comes home saying something new each day. Jaxon is always in high spirits when he leaves for the day and we know Fiona and Sara give him lots of love and care!!

My daughter loves her daycare and couldn’t wait to see her educator and friends everyday. Ruw and Scarlet are both very professional. I can see that they care about kids. They have different activities everyday for kids to explore the world. They also summarize each day and communicate through an APP with parents. Discovery Nest is one of the best daycare in Edmonton. I really appreciate their work and have recommended to my friends!

I can not say enough positive things about Discovery Nest!!! Starting daycare with a child that was born at the start of the covid pandemic was an uncomfortable feeling but Discovery Nest staff were so kind, thoughtful and professional. The daycare facility has a homely feel, the staff are happy and so caring and warm towards the children. My girl loves attending she is encouraged to learn new skills and enjoys the activities which are always varied, child centered and purposeful. The communication is also fantastic, I'm always kept upto date on my child's day and to be able to see the photos during my working breaks gives me a smile. Thank you Discovery Nest!!!!

We are new to Discovery Nest as of this fall. We had been on the wait list since I was five months pregnant and were so hopeful to get a spot as it was the best daycare out of all the ones we toured. Thankfully, we got a spot and couldn't be happier. The educators are kind, caring and communicative. They make their space inclusive and kept safety top of mind with COVID protocols. My son is learning a lot and I like the lesson plans that they develop. My son always smiles and waves at his teachers when we leave because clearly they've made an impact in a short period of time. The app they use to give us parents updates is fantastic. Having that peace of mind is everything. Lastly, the orientation process was helpful. They gave us an overview of what to bring to daycare, what to expect and enough time to adapt to their schedule before starting at the center. Overall, it has been a huge relief to find safe, high-quality childcare that is close to our home. My son can meet kids who will be living in our same community at the center because they make the daycare feel like one big family. Thank you Scarlet and team!

We truly feel privileged to have found Discovery Nest Early Learning Centre. The Directors are responsive, organized, and very kind. They communicate quickly with parents, and I always trust that my child is in very good hands. The programming is evidence-based, contemporary, varied, and puts the child’s learning and wellness first. Everyday is filled with developmentally appropriate activities (with environmentally friendly materials) that are inclusive and diverse. The language and problem-solving strategies that are used with the children are similarly intentional and thoughtful. The activities are then posted regularly on an app, thus helping parents feel connected to the Centre. The Directors/Educators ask for parental input into the activities and are so responsive to feedback. Guidelines and regulations are rigorously thought-out and make us feel safe even in a pandemic. Our kiddo loves having new adventures and dare I say sleeps/eats better at the Nest than at home! Thank you to the educators for your hard work, dedication, and genuine care for our children!
