Special Education
Lilybug Learning provides a supportive and inclusive environment for children with a wide range of learning styles, abilities, and developmental needs. We recognize that every child is unique and that some children benefit from additional understanding, flexibility, and individualized support.
Our home-based setting allows for close observation, strong relationships, and a calm, predictable routine that supports children who thrive in smaller group environments.
Individualized Support
Some children require additional guidance in areas such as communication, behaviour, social interaction, or daily transitions. Lilybug Learning works to support these needs in a respectful and responsive way, while maintaining a positive experience for all children in care.
- Support for a variety of learning styles and developmental needs
- Flexible approaches to daily routines and activities
- Patience, consistency, and clear expectations
- Encouragement of independence and confidence at an individual pace
Inclusive Daily Routines
Daily routines are structured to provide consistency while allowing room for individual differences. Predictable schedules, clear transitions, and a supportive environment help children feel secure and comfortable throughout the day.
Children are encouraged to participate in activities at a level that feels appropriate for them, while still being included as valued members of the group.
Collaborative Approach
When appropriate, Lilybug Learning supports a collaborative approach that may include communication with parents and, where applicable, external professionals involved in a child’s development.
- Open communication with families
- Consistency between home and child care environments
- Respect for existing strategies and supports already in place
This collaborative approach helps ensure children receive consistent support and clear expectations across settings.
A Safe and Supportive Environment
The home-based environment at Lilybug Learning offers a quieter, more personal setting that can be especially beneficial for children who are sensitive to noise, transitions, or large group sizes.
Our goal is to provide care that is inclusive, respectful, and supportive — helping each child feel safe, valued, and capable as they learn and grow at their own pace.
