About Aurora Children's Centre

Aurora Children’s Centre (formerly Our Lady of Grace Childcare Centre) was established January 18, 1988. The corporation began with Community members surveying the Aurora community for services needed in the area. The survey results showed a dire need for quality childcare. Hence, Our Lady of Grace Childcare Centre, Inc. was created through the hard work and dedication of the very first Board of Directors back in 1987. Our Lady of Grace continued to expand and in 1993, we went through the first ‘conversion’ with a ‘not for profit’ centre and added a school age component to the centre. We also opened Cardinal Carter Childcare Centre in August that same year. With the passing of the years came changes and the necessity to find a new location for Our Lady of Grace. We found our present site and the centre grew from 7,784 sq ft and a licensed capacity of 142 children to approximately 17,726 sq. ft. with a licensed capacity of 212 children. We changed our name to Aurora Children’s Centre and opened our doors on September 5, 2006. The rest as they say is history! We now have two quality childcare centres with a fabulous reputation and a healthy waitlist. This is primarily due to the collaborative efforts of our strong Administration Team, our skilled program staff and the much appreciated support of our volunteer Board of Directors.
