What’s Happening?
What families have to say…
The following are quotes from parents and childcare providers who attend our programs.
“It’s nice to have a safe play space for the children while parents can drink coffee and relate to one another. These playgroups are a need not a want. Life would have been much, much harder without them. My kids and I very much look forward to them.”
“Cooking with Kids was an excellent opportunity to get my child exposed to different foods. Great group.”
“Daybreak playgroup has impacted my life in a positive way; having access to free play groups is an amazing thing for parents and care givers. We appreciate everything that is provided from the coffee, snacks conversations and support. Thank-you”
