They go above and beyond

"I have been impressed by the level of care and attention that my daughter has received from PELC and although I have received offers to place my daughter in a centre closer to my work, I have never considered taking her out of this centre. They pay such close attention that I was approached when they thought my daughter may have a speech impediment. PELC not only approached me with the concern but also a solution. They have a speech therapist visit on site and Charlotte was seen and assessed expediently. This is just one of the many ways they go above and beyond to ensure our children receive the best care possible. My daughter has learned so much from attending PELC. She has confidence in herself, she is aware of her feelings, she knows she has a voice and it matters... They are a clean, well-run child care centre with amazing, caring staff who make me having to leave my child to go to work much less stressful. I am thankful and appreciative for them."

Thank you letter from a Parent:

Dear Staff of PELC:

As our daughter attended her last week of care at the PELC Willowgove location we had the chance to relect on the time that she & our son were so fortunate to have had there.

Our son entered care as a toddler at the Willowgrove location when it first opened & at the time, as new parents, we did not know any other environment besides the dayhomes that he had attended up to that point. However, it very quickly became evident that we made the right decision in putting him in the caring hands of the staff at PELC.

Throughout the years he spent there the opportunities he had to learn and grow as well as the seemingly endless patience and kindness of all the staff members helped us to feel so much more comfortable dropping him off each day.

By the time our daughter was ready to enter PELC care, we recognized the amazing environment they both were able to enjoy every day. She was able to start in the infant room and spend almost four years at the Willow Grove location. Throughout her time there she made friends, learned to use her imagination and be creative, and was even willing to try new foods that could never get her to try at home. (She found she really liked them.)

We have brought one or both of our children to the PELC Willowgrove location since 2015 and as they will both be full time at school this fall it will be a huge change to our family.

We would like to thank all the amazing childcare workers, support staff, and administration for all of the hard work that they put in to make each day special for our two kids and many others. You will no doubt continue to provide exceptional care for many families, but we can say, without a doubt, that for both our children we could not have asked for a better place for them to be throughout the last six years. Thank you again for everything that you do and all the best in the future.

"I have had the privilege of working alongside PELC at the Charles Red Hawk Elementary School located on the Whitecap Dakota First Nation. The staff employed by PELC are very welcoming and that is why they quickly developed trusting relationships with the children, staff members, and families of the Whitecap Dakota First Nation. It is very evident that the children in their centre are the focus of all of their efforts."
