LIH Daycare

Our primary goal at LIH daycare is to provide a nurturing and inclusive atmosphere where children can engage in play, education, and personal development within a bilingual setting.

LIH daycare welcomes children between the ages of 18 months and 2 years old, offering them a unique experience in a French-English bilingual setting. This early exposure lays the foundation for their future engagement as responsible members of the global community.

Our Curriculum 

Our curriculum ensures that children are immersed in both the French and English languages throughout the day. Our dedicated teachers engage the children in conversations and instruction in both languages, fostering a bilingual environment. Through a variety of activities such as reading books and stories, listening to songs and nursery rhymes, and participating in activities conducted in both languages, children develop pre-literacy skills while freely using and appreciating both languages. Additionally, our curriculum promotes self-awareness and a sense of belonging through art, music, free play.
