Happy, Busy Days at
Our Toddler Daycare in North Vancouver
Toddlers are busy people. Between 12 and 36 months, walking turns into climbing, and everything needs to be touched, tried and done “all by myself.” At Laugh Life Child Care, they get the room, the play and the patient grown-ups to do exactly that.
Our toddler program has a dedicated indoor playground, outdoor play twice a day and Infant/Toddler-certified educators, one for every four children.
Come see us on Delbrook Ave in North Vancouver. We're open 7:30 AM to 5:00 PM, with full-time and part-time spaces.
An Indoor Playground for Toddlers
North Shore rain doesn’t slow toddlers down, and it doesn’t have to. Our indoor playground has climbing equipment, ride-on toys and open space to move, so there’s always somewhere to wiggle, climb and giggle.
Outdoor Play Twice a Day
Toddlers head out to our outdoor playground for about an hour in the morning and another hour in the afternoon. It's free play time to run, explore, and burn off some of that toddler energy. Dress your little one for the weather: sun hat and sunscreen in summer, a warm jacket and boots in winter.
Art, Sensory Play and Make-Believe
Toddlers enjoy sensory play, art at child-sized tables, pretend play in the little kitchen, and quieter moments with books. Seasonal activities and special events add something different throughout the year.
Potty-Training Support for Toddlers
When your toddler shows they're ready, we work with you so daycare and home feel the same. That means regular bathroom visits, lots of encouragement and plenty of cheering for every success. Tell us what you're doing at home, and we'll keep it consistent.
Snacks, Lunch and a Good Rest
We provide snacks and fresh fruit through the day. You pack your toddler's lunch, so they eat food you've chosen and they know. Please tell us about any allergies before enrolment. After a full morning, toddlers rest on their own cot in our quiet, separate nap room.
Toddler ECE Educators Who Love This Age
Our two main teachers hold Early Childhood Education and Infant/Toddler certification, and toddlers are in small groups of four children per educator. You’ll get photos and updates on WhatsApp throughout the day. Meet the team on our About Us page.
Every staff member completes a background check.
