children, Edleun has partnered with a Registered Dietician and

certifies their menu, ingredients in their menu and provides proper
substitutions in case of personal beliefs or allergies. Their meals are made
in-house, fresh daily and from scratch. Their full meal program is included at

fish are cut into fillets, breaded using eggs, milk and bread crumbs, and then
baked in the oven until done. This is served alongside rice, steamed broccoli,
cauliflower, fresh fruit and a glass of milk).
This Centre is located at
20 Shepherd Road (just off of Speers Rd and Kerr St), a quick 3
minute drive to the Oakville Go-Train Station. They offer convenient operating
hours for commuting parents and are open from 6:45am to 6:00pm. Knowing how
important fun and safe before and out of school care is, they also offer care to
children enrolled at Patricia Picknell, Pinegrove, Oakwood and St.Marie.
In order to experience the full
breadth of benefits this Centre can provide your family, the Oakville
Learning & Childcare Centre warmly invites and encourages all
interested parents to call and schedule a visit. You might be amazed at what
