Welcome to our world of childcare, a journey I’ve been passionately navigating for over a quarter of a century.

Since 1997, the charming city of Medicine Hat has been my base, a place I proudly call home. Alongside my husband, our life is joyfully filled with the hustle and bustle of raising four wonderful children. Interestingly, our journey with BBPS began right from its inception, with one of our own experiencing the nurturing environment during our very first year.

What truly sets my heart alight in this profession is the unique partnership we form with you, the parents. Together, we embark on a remarkable journey, setting and achieving lifelong milestones for your child.

From mastering the art of self-feeding to the significant leap of potty training, we are here to guide and celebrate every step towards independence and self-reliance. These skills, once acquired, are invaluable assets your child carries throughout their life.

Our website is designed with you in mind, aiming to provide comprehensive answers to all your queries about our program.

We hope it serves as a helpful guide and an insightful window into our world. Your visit here is much appreciated, and we eagerly invite you to experience our warm, loving facilities in person. Please don’t hesitate to reach out and schedule a tour. We look forward to welcoming you and your child into our BBPS family.
