About the Company
KidFit 60, in collaboration with Vince Leah Community Centre, presents a childcare centre for pre-school children ages 2-5. KidFit 60 Jr. Childcare Academy is a place where being active, learning, imagination, and interaction come together and create success. We exist to provide a quality active learning environment for pre-school aged children.
Each day children will engage in a structured teacher-led physical activity in our full-size gym and dance studio. Structured activities, such as yoga, dance, balance exercises, and basic movement skills. Low organized games and a free play block are also included to promote socialization and creativity. This will improve coordination, strength, skill, and the appreciation of being physically active.
KidFit 60 Jr. offers full child care, from 7:30 am to 5:30 pm, Monday through Friday, at the Vince Leah Community Centre located at 1295 Salter Avenue. We have done many facility upgrades and improvements to the community club, to help create a facility that will benefit our program and the needs of the community.
Our facility features a 3000 square foot gymnasium with indoor artificial grass and safety flooring, a dance studio, a multipurpose area, kitchen, renovated daycare classrooms, and it will provide many other indoor and outdoor active learning opportunities for our children.
