Special Guest Star- Dance Teacher

This week we had a very special guest star join us for a few days as a treat for the children, Jessie Cox, filling in as our Dance Teacher for Ms Deanne who is away on holidays for a few weeks. Jessie is originally from a suburb of Vancouver and growing up, she trained in musical theatre before coming to Toronto when she was 18 so she could attend Sheridan College where she earned an advanced diploma in Musical theatre. She has also danced her whole life, attending Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Acro, Musical Theatre, Lyrical & Hip Hop classes but finding that Musical Theatre was her favourite as it allowed her to be a singer, actor and dancer all in one. She has been performing professionally the last 3 years, having a role in "Anne of Green Gables" at the Charlottetown Festival where she played Diana Barry and also performed at the Young Peoples Theatre in "Annie" as one of the orphans. Currently she is substituting where she can as she is always moving around due to where Musical Theatre will take her, taking into consideration being fair to any employer in case she finds a role that will take her away from any permanent position. We are so very lucky to have had her join us, even for such a short period of time, and the children just adored being entertained by Jessie. Thanks Jessie for all your dance wisdom and guidance, and we hope to see you soon again in the future!

Welcome to Little Feet Little Faces Preschool!

We are a private Licensed Day Care (Licensed with the Ministry of Education) that offers high quality care for children aged 2.5 yrs – 6 yrs.

You have taken the first step of offering your child a 3 year framework that will extend and challenge their academic learning and expose them to a creative and imaginative world of artistic elements and possibilities.

Our low class size and student: teacher ratio allows your child to be taught at their own academic level and their learning to be tailored to their own strengths and challenges. By giving your child the opportunity to be part of this journey with us they are being immersed in an all encompassing curriculum that intertwines the academic and artistic learning that is relevant to real world success. This curriculum caters for all learners using Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences as well as Blooms Taxonomy to give your child the best learning outcomes. Themes are carried throughout the academic curriculum as well as the artistic curriculum to reinforce concepts and offer all types of learners to interpret and extend.

At Little Feet Little Faces your child is not just another face in the classroom. They are part of our team where every staff member knows their name and has taken the time to personally bond with your child and ensure a secure and trusting attachment has been forged. As a result of this your child comes to preschool happy and excited every day as they know they are safe and the staff love them. Our 3 year plan ensures that your child will receive a solid and comprehensive foundation of emergent and early literacy and mathematical concepts and skills allowing them to transition easily into some of Toronto’s most elite private elementary schools.

Thank you for taking this journey with us. We are excited to become part of your family and educate your child to become the most confident, expressive, academic, creative and well rounded individual they can be.
