WVCDC History

1954

Wendy House was built through the dedicated efforts of local parents who wished to have a special place for their children to grow and learn.  Mrs. Alma Reynolds was the kindergarten teacher who provided her students with many opportunities to learn through music exploration.

1975

Wendy House became the West Vancouver Daycare Society, delivering child care for the changing needs of the families of West Vancouver.

1991

The Centre underwent another name change, becoming the West Vancouver Child Development Centre.  We had four full-time staff offering care for 28 children on a full and part time basis.

1996

Plans began to develop an Infant and Toddler Program.

1998

With a lot of hard work from parents and staff, the Infant and Toddler Room was opened creating 8 more spaces for children under the age of 3.  We also welcomed 2 more full time staff members.

Present 

We are still providing high quality child care for families on the North Shore.  We currently offer space to 33 children on a full and part time basis.
