BrightPath Midnapore Child Care Centre

Our centre has been a proud part of its community since 1978. Close to the Macleod Trail and Shawnessy Boulevard intersection, the centre provides easy access to major thoroughfares while being tucked away in a quiet, mature residential area.

Fully licensed and accredited, the centre offers 100 spaces for child care to infants to 5-year olds and before and after school care for 6 to 12-year olds. The centre and its staff give a warm welcome to all that enter and make you feel part of the family. This feeling of home as well as the centre’s longevity has inspired second-generation BrightPath families – parents that came to the centre as children themselves years ago are now bringing their own children to the centre for care.
