alico Saints Child Care - North York is a community based, non-profit Childcare Centre that has been providing service to the community since 1988. The centre originated as a project of neighbourhood mothers, who felt that there was a demand for childcare in their community. They developed a plan of action and took advantage of the Ministry of Education's offer to house childcare centres within its buildings. After the intensive planning with the School Board and Toronto Children Services the centre opened in December 1988.The centre started with providing care for preschool (21/2 to 5 years) and school age children (6 to 9 years). In 1995 the centre negotiated its contract and license with the School Board and Ministry of Education to increase its capacity and include a toddler program.more...See more text
