My Mission

To Engage, Encourage and Empower each child, every day.

As a parent myself, I searched for high quality, age appropriate child care for my own two children. I wanted a place I felt confident they would always feel safe, loved and excited to spend time after school with their peers as they develop memories that will last a lifetime.

Years Living in Bridgeland

Moving here from Ontario it was easy to fall in love with Calgary, and more specifically Bridgeland. We put our roots down in this neighbourhood without hesitation and purchased a home, eventually building a 3 story home in 2012. I have run the after school care program here successfully since moving in. I live happily with my husband Paul Bazay and our two children Miles & Lilly.

Years Serving Families & youth

With a B.A. specializing in psychology and a diploma in social service work, I have worked in several different Not-for-profit programs serving both families and youth since graduating in 2000. It is truly my passion to build the self esteem and confidence of children in my care and something that feeds my energy and soul. Without a doubt, what I was meant to do.

Thousands of positive memories

The true impact of unconditional positive regard allows for security and confidence to grow with ease. The love and laughter here each day is abundant as they really get to know one another and show their true colours. The result is beautiful lasting friendships and memories they can look back on fondly. I promise once they join our group, they do not want to leave :)

 
 

Programs

Each program has a strong focus on giving children the opportunity to gain confidence, self esteem and respect for themselves and their peers, while learning at their leisure through thoughtful interactive indoor/outdoor games, crafts and creative projects. Through fun small group activities as well as a good balance of free play, we see them thrive while also letting them simply be kids each day.
