Welcome to Ivy's Family Day Home. I am a childcare provider who has been licensed since September 1999, and is CPR certified. I am also associated with the NWT Early Childhood Programming. Ivy's Family Day Home is dedicated to providing a warm and inviting atmosphere that allows children to develop at their pace. I believe that children need to have a positive self-image. I foster that image, along with their developmental growth in the areas of intellectual, social, physical, and emotional skills, through a variety of group activities, individual play, and quiet periods. My program makes use of many play and learning materials that help the children gain confidence in their abilities to do and make things. At Ivy's Family Day Home, I am parent-friendly. I welcome parents visits anytime, and seriously consider all parent suggestions and comments.
