High Quality Care
from Dedicated Educators 
Little Scholars Child Care
Located in Cambridge, Ontario, Little Scholars is dedicated to providing children with a safe and secure environment where each child feels comfortable to explore and build confidence through a variety of learning experiences. Our programs practice a unique curriculum focused both on play and academics. Little Scholars executes an emergent curriculum that is based on the children’s interests and this approach of planning is utilized in both our play based and our skill based activities.
Safe, Secure Child Care in CambridgeFostering Your Child's Skills Development
We value play as it is a vehicle that propels learning and development. We understand that play fosters skill development through offering opportunities to gain new skills as well as refine existing ones. Our intention is to provide the best possible environment to meet the play needs of all children and to do whatever possible to support the natural urge to play so that each child can develop an excitement for learning.
Reader’s Choice Awards
2022 marks the third year in a row that we have won first place in the Reader’s Choice Awards for the best childcare in the Region of Waterloo. Our team is absolutely amazing and we wouldn’t be where we are today without our educators. Our families have shown us so much support since opening in May 2018 and we enjoy working closely with you all. Our kiddos are the reason why we are all here and we love seeing you everyday and learning along side you. Thank you everyone!
