WELCOME TO ECOG DROP IN CHILDCARE CENTRE
If you need a few hours to focus on work, go to an appointment, run errands, or maybe you want to spend time with a friend – we would love to help you do that!
What is a drop in childcare centre?
Estevan Church Of God (ECOG) is so excited to offer such a needed program that we believe, will be essential to the community and impact many families. Our program is NOT a substitute full time daycare but instead is meant to aid parents who may not have full time care by allowing them some time to be away from their children while having peace of mind knowing that their child is in a safe, secure, and loving environment.
You might have a few questions... Lets get to those!
What days/times does our program run?
Our drop in centre will run (normally) every Tuesday and Wednesday from 9:15am - 12:15pm. Date/times are subject to change but will be always be updated accordingly when monthly availability is posted.
What are our rates?
Our current rates are $15/day per child however, if you are enrolling more than one child from the same family on the same day, the additional children will only be an additional $10/day. Rates are subject to change with 30 days notice.
How do you know your child is safe in our care?
Our church facility has cameras in all areas where your child will be with the exception of the bathrooms. Your child will never be left unattended. Our staff is required to provide criminal record check and CPR certification. Only grownups who have been approved by you will be able to pick up your child.
What will a day at our facility look like for your child?
Doors to our center will open at 9:05am. You will come through the front doors of the church and follow the signage to the drop in centre sign in desk. Here you will sign in your child and they will be let into the morning playroom. Gates will lock to prevent any children from leaving the monitored areas. Over the next 3 hours your child will have accesses to 3 playrooms, a nursery room if naps are needed, crafts, music and reading. Your child will be provided with one healthy snack while in our care. Menu will be posted on a monthly basis. Pick up time is 12:15pm and we will have your child all cleaned up, dressed in outdoor clothing and ready to go!
What ages of children do we accept?
We accept children between the ages of 18 months & 10 years. (We are however limited to only 3 open spots per day being open to little ones aged 18months - 2 years.)
