Anne Ross
Day Nursery

Founded very early on in the clinic’s history, the Anne Ross Day Nursery (ARDN) provided a necessary support to families with young children who required health care services. In modern times, ARDN operates as an early learning and childcare/infant centre, providing 48 fully subsidized preschool spaces, and 16 infant spaces, in a culturally-safe and supportive atmosphere. In addition to providing childcare to families in need, ARDN provides lunch and snacks to the kids daily, and also helps connect families to services such as speech pathology, FASD treatment and services, and child development counselling.

For more information, or to access the program, please contact us.
