The MWMFF is joining with the government of Nova Scotia to establish three early years centres across the province that will provide support for young children and their families at accessible community locations.
These centres will build on the highly successful SchoolsPlus model being used in schools that help bring seamless access to regulated child care, early learning programs, early intervention and parent education.
Early Years Centres in PEI, Nova Scotia and Ontario have proven invaluable in demonstrating the integration of early childhood services and public education to better serve children and families. “We’re confident the same lessons will be learned in Nova Scotia and it too can make take the necessary steps to modernize its early childhood services to meet the needs of today’s families,” says MWMFF chair Honourable Margaret McCain.
