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 Woodlands is located on the corner of Woodpark Boulevard and Woodstock Road with the centre easily accessed on the way to Anderson Road and out of the residential communities.
The centre is licensed and accredited with 94 spaces for child care for children aged 12 months to 5 years and before and after school care for those aged 6 to 12 years. With many long-term staff in residence, everyone is afforded a warm welcome at the centre. When walking through the doors you can feel the love extended to the attending children and their families. The team is passionate and shares experiences regularly, to learn from and to inspire each other in their daily work.
BrightPath Woodlands works closely with its parent group to provide learning sessions to their children. Parents are encouraged to share cultural customs and celebrations, job-related information (police, fire, doctors, etc.) as well as interesting hobbies (beekeeping, etc.) with the children, to enhance and enrich their learning and build an even more tight-knit community within the centre.

Lorna Mayomis, Centre DirectorBrightPath Woodlands
Meet The Centre Director
Lorna started working in children’s education after graduating with a Bachelor of Education degree in the Philippines. Upon her arrival in Canada, she wanted to work in the same field so gained experience working in both a preschool and Montessori setting. Lorna joined the BrightPath team in 2014 and is our Director at Woodlands.
Lorna’s favourite part about being a Director is learning something new every day, leading her to be more passionate and committed in her role to provide a safe, loving and nurturing environment for the children. She loves the teamwork of the staff at the centre and the supportive parents she sees every day.
After immigrating to Canada from the Philippines, Lorna lives blissfully with her husband and daughter. Other than English, Lorna speaks Tagalog and other Filipino languages that are spoken in some provinces. In her spare time, she loves to spend time with her family watching movies, cooking, going for walks, sightseeing and gathering with church friends.
