BrightPath Okotoks Child Care Centre

Welcome to our BrightPath Okotoks Child Care Centre, located in a quiet part of downtown Okotoks near you. We pride ourselves on the warm feeling you experience when you walk through our doors and our child care staff are eager to envelop you in the feeling of family. Due to its smallness, everyone in our centre is familiar with each other and our child care centre's community is tight-knit and warm. This provides children with a comforting child care environment to learn, grow and play in. 

BrightPath Okotoks is conveniently situated on McRae Street in a quieter part of downtown Okotoks across from the Okotoks Olde Towne Plaza, home of the “Light Up Okotoks” tree.

The fully licensed and accredited centre offers 56 spaces for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years.
