What is an EarlyON Centre?

It is a Family Centre for you and your children to learn, play and grow. The EarlyON Centre offers free programs for parents/caregivers and children from birth to 6 years old. You can learn and play with your child, meet people and get advice from our knowledgeable staff of Early Childhood Educators.

Our centres are no longer "drop-in."
