Our focus is on a child’s needs. We believe in providing the highest standards of childcare possible.

All our Academies have unique features; biometric fingerprint access control, on-site kitchens and chefs, professional cleaning staff, large classrooms with lots of natural light, separate sleep rooms for infants, outdoor secure playgrounds and Liveview HD cameras.

SEEDS represents everything we do to ensure delivery of high quality education in a safe and nurturing environment.

Willowbrae has partnered with Hal Johnson & Joanne McLeod, of BodyBreak to develop BodyBreak KID FIT - a healthy-living initiative designed to educate children and parents about the importance of daily physical activity, rest & sleep, healthy food choices, and other positive lifestyle habits.

Dietitian-designed snacks and lunches are prepared on site following Canada’s Food Guide and are prepared from scratch using only the freshest ingredients. 

Braeview is our exclusive on-line communication tool for parents and staff with extensive features including daily email reports sent to parents, a secure access area, functionality on mobile device.

Parents can feel reassured that their children are safe, as only authorized personnel can enter the premises via our biometric access control with fingerprint scanning. 

All classrooms and playgrounds are equipped with secure Liveview High Definition cameras which enables parents to view their child throughout the day in real time. 

Academies designed by professionals with a focus on children's needs. 

At Willowbrae Childcare Academy in Squamish we realize the importance of providing a safe, secure environment for children. Our Academies are committed to putting each child’s well-being foremost. We offer a safe-haven for children and the peace of mind for parents knowing their children are safe.

Mr. Naginder Brar joined Willowbrae Academy in January 2023 as a Preschool Teacher at our Langley location after completing his Early Childhood Education diploma at Canada College in Montreal. During his time in Langley, he also served as Program Coordinator, where he developed innovative programming and led tours for prospective families.

In April 2024, Mr. Brar transitioned to the role of Assistant Director at Willowbrae Academy Squamish, where he focused on supporting educators, enhancing family engagement, and fostering a nurturing learning environment. Most recently, in November 2024, he stepped into the Interim Director role, where he continues to lead with a commitment to excellence in early childhood education.

Throughout his career at Willowbrae, Mr. Brar has been passionate about creating enriching experiences for children, building strong relationships with families, and supporting the dedicated team of educators. He believes in the power of innovation in early learning and takes pride in cultivating a warm, inclusive school community where every child can thrive.

Outside of work, Mr. Brar enjoys spending time reading and consistently seeks opportunities for personal and professional growth.

Infancy is a wondrous period of growth and exploration. Our infant programs focus on building meaningful relationships with our families, built on trust, care and attention. By recognizing and acknowledging the needs of each individual child, infants feel secure and safe in their environment and thus creates a strong foundation to support the rapidly developing social, emotional and physical needs of infants while they explore the world around them.

While the focus is still largely on their primary care, toddlers begin to take their first steps towards greater independence. We promote their development through play and natural exploration of their surroundings. We begin to lay the basis for positive social interaction and support their positive relationships with peers. We focus on using our words, being gentle with our friends, sharing, and turn taking.

Pre-school rooms are equipped with age and developmentally appropriate learning materials and activities reflect the interests of the group and are often child directed. We encourage and promote positive social interaction and develop the many tools necessary to ensure a positive transition to “big” school and a lifelong love of learning.
