Daycare History

Garderie Les Jardins de Midas first opened its doors to welcome families in 1994. At the time of our daycare’s creation, it was a small family owned business that focused on providing personalized services to all. Today we are proud to say that it remains a family owned business that prides itself on providing high quality, individualized child care, using the best practices recognized by the Ministère de la Famille.

Our sense of family has remained at the core of our practices and we consider every child, parent and staff member to be part of our inclusive and multicultural family.

Our Mission

At Garderie Les Jardins de Midas, respect, autonomy, creativity, cooperation and self-esteem are values that are conveyed and solidified daily through play.

We favor an educational approach where the child is free to make his own choices, at his own pace and according to his personality. The children are therefore active participants and the educators are there to support and guide them. In fact, the educational staff supports the child with an open and democratic approach, based on our values, and in collaboration with the parents. Children remain our priority, and together we promote their overall development, with mutual respect.
