Magic Mountain Childcare is a distinguished early learning institution serving children from 12 months through kindergarten. We provide comprehensive daycare, preschool, and before- and after-school programs within state-of-the-art facilities designed to cultivate an inclusive, stimulating, and active environment.


Our inquiry-based curriculum fosters curiosity, creativity, and confidence, while emphasizing physical literacy and holistic child development.

  • Leading and supporting children in integrated learning and recreational activities.
  • Actively supervising and engaging with children while ensuring their well-being.
  • Providing regular communication to parents through monthly newsletters and daily updates.
  • Cultivating positive relationships with children, families, and colleagues.
  • Participating in professional development initiatives.
  • Adhering to Alberta Early Learning and Child Care Regulations and Active Start's policies and procedures to ensure quality care.

  • Proficiency in computer applications and administrative systems
  • Knowledge of Alberta Child Care Licensing Regulations (preferred)
