Question 1

Q: What is the difference between FFJCP and full time daycare?

Answer

A: FFJCP is a preschool, we do not provide primary caregiving. Fulltime daycare facilities provide primary caregiving to children who have no one at home to care for them. The majority of FFJCP students have some kind of caregiver at home and come to FFJCPfor social, emotional and academic learning.

Question 2

Q: Why is our full day 9:00am - 2:45pm?

Answer

A: The Ministry of Education has 2 kinds of programs in licensed childcare in Ontario; those that run longer than 6 hours (full time daycare) and those that run for six hours or less. Programs that run longer than 6 hours fall into the full time daycare category and have different regulations that govern them (i.e. children have to nap for 2 hours each day).

Question 3

Q: Does my child need to be toilet trained?

Answer

A: No. We will do whatever you are doing at home. If they start to train while at FFJCP, we will support them through it.
