Early Learning Centres
Research shows that successful child development outcomes are rooted in early experience. Where, how and with whom children spend their time in the earlier years has a major impact on their healthy development. Parents and those who take on parental responsibilities have the primary role in raising healthy children. The Bethlehem Early Learning Centre and Brighter Day Early Learning Centre support families and caregivers and assist children to learn and grow.
The Bethlehem Projects of Niagara operates two Early Learning Centres:
The Bethlehem Early Learning Centre located on site at Bethlehem Place and the Brighter Day Early Learning Centre located at Edith Cavell School in St. Catharines.
