The Best Start For your Child
The North Dumfries Preschool Co-operative Inc. was founded in Ayr
over 40 years ago by a group of parents, who believed that parents are
a child's first and most important teachers. Our program is licensed by
the Ministry of Education and is funded partly by the Region of Waterloo.
We provide services for children ages 18 months to 4 years old who are
divided into age appropriate classes for toddlers and preschoolers.
These children are nurtured and encouraged our wonderful
teachers who work in the classroom, helping them
to get prepared for the kindergarten years.
​
We serve a large area of communities around Ayr, Ontario.
About Us
What Parents Are Saying
"(My child) was always eager to share who he played with, which to me, reflects how the staff created a safe and nurturing environment. It was clear he was forming connections with different friends nearly every time, which shows how well the children are supported socially at NDPCI."​
​​
"Myself, as a parent, enjoyed hearing about all the cool activities my child would participate in and his relationship with the other children! My child often told me how much he enjoyed interacting with his peers everyday and also doing so many fun activities."
​
"I can't even drive by the Preschool without my kid getting excited saying "I go to Preschool today?""
​
"My daughter is loving preschool and working on potty training herself at preschool. Great work!"
"Another great day. [My daughter] said she had a fun day today. Also I noticed she recognized her name on something we had at home thanks to preschool! Thank you!".
