Combination keyless entry is required for entrance into the centre as keeping your children safe and secure is our first priority. Lunch and snacks are prepared daily by our on-site cook and are served family-style. the play area to the side and back of the building is large and divided into two areas to allow the different age groups to play safely.

Danae McGinn
Danae has grown up all over western Canada and has returned to Alberta after living for a time in Saskatchewan. It was there that she graduated from Saskatchewan Polytechnic with a diploma in Early Childhood Education. Danae has been working in child care ever since. She joined B.C.D. as Director of Altadore Daycare in September of 2018, and is excited to learn and teach beside the staff and children there.
Danae’s favourite thing about child care is making connections with the children. She loves to sing and read with them, and she especially loves to laugh with them. Danae believes that child care should be a safe place where children are able to learn who they are, and are challenged to become the best they can be. Watching children master their challenges is the most rewarding part of being an educator.
