Colonel By Child Care Centre is located on the Carleton University campus and provides child care for families currently 

connected with Carleton University (current students, faculty and employees). On rare occasions, we may have a space 

for a community family. We offer a full day infant program for children under 18 months, as well as a full day toddler 

program for children ages 18 months to 2.5. Finally, we offer a full day preschool program for children between the ages 

of 2.5 and 5 years old. Our program promotes inquiry-based learning by reflecting on the interests and ideas of the 

children as well as the Educators. Our Early Childhood Educators plan the environment to guide the children’s learning, 

enhance their knowledge and meet their individual development needs. We provide a supportive environment that 

encourages positive social interactions and an understanding of each child’s uniqueness.
