About

The Joy of Learning is an early learning environment offering Child Development and Private Educational services through Applied Behaviour Analysis (ABA), Speech Language Pathology (SLP), Occupational Therapy (OT), and modified Ontario Curriculum educational services.


Open Monday to Friday, in the beautiful setting of Bronte Creek Provincial Park our private school offers children the opportunity to engage in natural environment learning and a greater opportunity to generalize the skills they learn in a safe and healthy environment. Hiking, nature walks, visiting the farm learning about the animals in the barn, swimming in summer are just a few of the positive learning, innovative teaching modules that our school focuses on in addition to self-help skills and independence, academic skills, language and communication, and social skills.

Our programs are eligible for reimbursement through the Ontario Autism Program (OAP), with the exception of our Toddler/Preschool program. SLP and OT services may also be eligible for reimbursement through personal insurance benefits.


Focus


At the Joy of Learning our focus is on early learning for improved communication and language, behavioural, social and academic skills. We are committed to providing our children with the tools and knowledge to experience confidence, success and joy. At the Joy of Learning, we adopt a consent-based practice of ABA, whereby we follow the natural interest of the child and design each program based on the needs of the individual.

Our goal is to make their world a bigger place.

To ensure transitions between home and therapy is consistent, family/provider involvement is an integral part of your child’s therapy. We provide regular parent/guardian training, deliver regular updates, recommend program observations, as well as programs for use in the home.
