A Safe, Structured, and Creative Preschool Experience

At A Special Kind of Play Nursery School, our program is built on balance — structure and freedom, routine and creativity, guidance and independence. We welcome children aged 2.5 to 5 years, supporting their growth through meaningful play and a calm, consistent environment.

• Daily routines that build confidence and self-regulation
• Creative activities like art, music, and sensory play
• Group time that encourages sharing, listening, and social skills
• Emotional coaching to help children express and manage big feelings
• Open-ended play that sparks curiosity and imagination
• Opportunities to build skills at their own pace

Every child is unique, and we adjust our approach to meet their needs. With small group sizes, our educators get to know each child and help them grow in a way that feels natural and supported.

We keep parents informed and involved with:

• Regular communication
• Progress updates
• Optional Mom Support Workshops throughout the year

Our goal is simple: 

To help children feel safe, confident, and capable as they explore the world around them.

Because when learning happens in the right environment — life changes for real.

Skill-Building Focus: Instead of a one-size-fits-all curriculum, we design individualized learning experiences that help children build practical life skills, emotional resilience, and a love for learning.

Creative Expression: From art to movement to sensory exploration, creativity is infused into every part of the day.

Supportive Community: We walk alongside families — offering parent workshops, open communication, and genuine partnerships that support your child’s growth beyond the classroom.

At A Special Kind of Play, we believe in raising confident, kind, and capable children by creating a culture where both kids and educators enjoy the journey of learning. Because when learning happens — life changes for real!

• Small classroom sizes
• Calm, structured environments
• Play-based learning
• Daily routines that help children feel secure
• Intentional activities with clear purpose
• Strong relationships with families

Preschool Events in Ajax | Simple. Meaningful. Community-Focused.

At A Special Kind of Play Nursery School, we believe in creating intentional moments that strengthen community, celebrate growth, and support families. Our events may be few, but they are thoughtfully planned to make a lasting impact on both children and parents.

• 🎄 Christmas Party

Each year, we host a joyful Christmas celebration for our preschool children and their families. With festive music, crafts, treats, and lots of laughter, this event is a warm, memory-making moment that brings our entire school community together. It’s a time for children to shine and for parents to join in the celebration of the season.

• 🎓 Graduation Celebration

Our Preschool Graduation Party is a proud and emotional highlight of the year. We honour each child’s growth, accomplishments, and transition to their next stage of development. Families are invited to witness and celebrate this milestone through songs, certificates, and shared joy. It’s more than a ceremony — it’s a celebration of who your child is becoming.

• 💬 Mom Support Workshops

Parenting isn’t easy, and we believe moms deserve support too. Throughout the year, we offer Mom Support Workshops— safe, welcoming sessions designed to encourage, equip, and uplift mothers in our community. Topics range from emotional well-being to parenting strategies, and each session is rooted in real-life connection and care.

These workshops are optional, free to attend for enrolled families, and part of our commitment to nurturing the whole family, not just the child.
