In order to support children in their development, our team has set up a pedagogy which consists of 4 stages based on the recommendations of the “Ministère de la Famille.”

The Educational Daycare Program
Garderie Les Jardins de Midas
Safe environment
Garderie Les Jardins de Midas allows children to grow up in a balanced and safe environment. Our educational program allows children to be physically and socially active. They learn by interacting with their environment, their peers and the adults around them. The child learns to know himself, to express himself, to make choices and to become more and more autonomous in order to eventually enter school.
We listen to children’s ideas and offer them activities that interest them and that are tailored to their needs. Parents’ collaboration is essential. Our educators support parents in the overall development of their child.

Healthy lifestyles
It is very important to note that children’s growth and learning ability are closely influenced by nutrition and that children eat more than half of their daily meals at daycare.
At Garderie Les Jardins de Midas, we are aware of the responsibility we have to provide children with quality, healthy food.
To grow well, your child must eat well.
- Our meals are prepared on site.
- Our menus are developed according to the Gazelle and Potiron ministerial reference framework and the Canadian Food Guide.
- The menu was designed by our cooks and management, in close collaboration with a nutritionist, to ensure that we provide nutritious, healthy and quality meals.
- We adapt meals in case of food allergies.
- We also offer Halal and vegetarian meals on request.
- The menus vary over 4 weeks and change according to the season to offer varied and nutritious meals to the children.
To grow well, your child must move.
- Regular movement positively influences the overall development of children.
- Physical activities are highlighted daily in our outdoor and indoor educational program.
- Our outdoor yard with a play structure and a colorful, fun and protective anti shock surface promotes overall and social development.
