Child Care
Éenda Noochiikiing (Where They Start in the Lenape language) provides high-quality licensed childcare and early learning experiences in a play-based environment rooted in the languages and cultural knowledge of the three neighbouring First Nations—the Lunaape, Anishinaabe, and Haudenosaunee. With an operating capacity of 40 children, we currently serve 6 infants, 10 toddlers, and 24 preschoolers.
