Whiby Free Press, Wednesday, Match 9, 1994, Page il advertisement I Wee Watch Home Day Care provides your children with a program where a chiîd's total development is encouraged by initiating a philosophy of learning through play. Home day care is best!e Wee Watch Home Day Care has a very simple philosophy that has been the basis of its success for the last ten years - that day care in a home environment is the best form of child care. Kathy Powell, Wee Watch's Whitby area supervisor, says that programming within each home stresses learning through play, outdoor play, nutritious lunches and snacks and ____ safety. M Through play, a child's total development W (cognitive, social, physicalIV and creative) is encouraged. 4 _____ Founded in 1984, Wee pvrgIia. Watch is wholly Canadian owned and is the largest a license home day care operation in the country. Each provider home is backed by the full resources, knowledge and trai ning capabilities of the Wee Watch network. "There is a chronic shortage of day care in Ontario," says Kathy. "Health and Welfare Canada estimates that children in need of some form of day care now outnumber spaces in licensed centres by more than ten to one.-- DÉ ed Kathy has a Master's Degree in Education from the University of Toronto and a B.A. from McMaster, and is mother te, a 7-year-old. "Wee Watch caters to children from six weeks to twelve years, full or part-time," Kathy e«plains. "They are placed-in homes where trained Wee Watch providers care for them." _______Providers are carefully screened by a qualified E.C.E. (Early Childhood Education) consultapt, references are obtained, as well as checks with the th___ police and Children's Aid ______Society. Ail homes meet local YAgencyfire standards and are f Agencyregularly înspected for safety. "Because each Wee Watch home will only accept a small number of children, we can offer your child personal, individual attention," says Kathy. "Within this natural home setting, we can be more flexible and accommodati ng." Wee Watch day care homes are available right in your neighbourhood. For more information, cail 686-3995.
