BrightPath Kids is the proud recipient of its third Prime Minister’s Awards for Excellence in Early Childhood Education for 2019 at Sage Hill location. Previously we received this top honour for outstanding and innovative early childhood education in 2014 and 2017.
What Sets Us Apart
Our award-winning curriculum was formed through in-depth research into early childhood learning and development. A blend of play-based (Frog Street) and child-led (Emergent) curriculums, all activities are hands-on, child-guided and exceed provincial early learning frameworks.
Our dedicated and passionate early childhood educators deliver an innovative, engaging and proven curriculum that ignites a love of learning and inspires and encourages individuality in every BrightPath child. Their nurturing and attentive approach offers each child a home-away-from-home experience.
Two-way communication is important. Monthly newsletters, curriculum nights, parent interviews, open houses and our proprietary app (BrightPath Connect™) are designed to increase the interaction between our centres and families.
Children need nutrition to grow in both mind and body. Believing that food choices throughout childhood fuel life long eating habits, our menu is crafted by a Registered Nutritionist and prepared in-house daily and reflects those beliefs.

About The Centre
BrightPath Sage Hill is located in a newly developed shopping complex that has great access to Shaganappi Trail. Located in the same building as the Sage Hill London Drugs, the centre is just off the second traffic circle on the north side of the shopping development.
The centre offers 130 child care spaces for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and is fully licensed and accredited. The location’s front features curved walls and the whole facility boasts large windows that bring in a lot of natural light. The outdoor play yards curve around the centre and are divided into three sections that provide age-appropriate environments for the various age groups present at the centre. An indoor gym offers space for physical activity during inclement weather, inter-curricular programming such as Body Movement or Yoga, as well as studio space for additional recreational programs such as Ballet, Hip Hop, Karate and Sports Jam.
This centre is a sister location to BrightPath Creekside which is only 5 minutes away and located on Symons Valley Road. BrightPath Creekside has a spacious kitchen and hot meals are brought in from there while all snacks are prepared onsite at BrightPath Sage Hill. The Creekside centre also offers onsite Kindergarten and kindergarten-aged children at Sage Hill have the option of being bussed to half day classes there.
