JUNIPER EARLY LEARNING CENTER
JUNIPER EARLY LEARNING CENTER
Welcome!
Welcome!
Montessori education is known for following the child, respecting their own pace of development while fostering their interests, and promoting independence, both within the structure of the classroom and out in the wider world. Juniper Early Learning Center is a vibrant, international community of learners, where children and adults can learn from each other, by teaching and by doing. We strive to create a respectful and peaceful environment where students can grow and be who they are. At Juniper Early Learning Center, we believe that each person- child, parent and staff, brings something unique and valuable to our community.
We invite you to visit our school, and spend time in our classrooms, to see how children interact with one another and with the adults who are their guides and teachers. See how responsibility and independence are fostered, how the child-appropriate environment makes it possible for children to do what they are capable of, and how adults follow the child's lead to meet his/her developmental needs. Come meet our faculty, learn more about our programs for children aged 18 months to 6 years, (as well as for school aged children attending our program before/after school). Call our office to book a tour and see why children love being here. We look forward to meeting you!

Application Process
To be considered for admission, families must complete the following steps:

- **NOTE: Due to the Pandemic, and our effort to provide the safest environment possible for our students and staff, we invite you to watch our Video Tour.
- The Application: Completed applications, including Signed Fee Schedule Agreement, Registration Form, Health Form, Consent Forms, Emergency Card and $100 Enrollment Fee must be submitted together to begin the application process. You will be contacted as soon as possible to confirm if we have a space for your child.

2024/2025 Registration Packages​
​​
- We would be happy to print the Registration package for you, if you would like to pick up from the Centre, please contact the office at (250) 374-9565, between 9:00 a.m. and 11:30 a.m. Monday through Friday to make this request.
- Please return completed Registration packages to the Office at 202-2049 Highland Place, during the hours stated above, and someone will get back to you as soon as possible.
Please note: If your child is going to age out of their program throughout the school year, you must speak to the classroom teacher in the next program to secure a spot. This would apply to toddlers turning 3 or 5 year old's moving to kindergarten. While we will do our best to ensure a spot in the next age group, we cannot guarantee the same scheduled days or immediate availability. If you wish to pay a holding fee throughout the year to guarantee the spot, that can be arranged. Please inquire about this upon registration if your child will be changing programs throughout the year.
