Educational Program

We use a private Educational program designed by a Qualified Nursery School Teacher that is aligned with the Department of Education’s CAPS requirements and Elda Foundation Phase guidelines. Our daily program is age appropriate and lessons are presented in both Afrikaans and English.

Our educational program covers the following dimensions of a child’s development:

Cognitive Development (thinking skills)

Social Development (play and work in groups)

Emotional Development (feelings and emotions)

Creative Development (smaller body movements)

Intellectual Development (Understanding and recognise numbers)

With our own Inhouse Psychometrist, we also offer psychometric assessment services to assess school readiness and assessments for school beginners, development assessments, NBI Brain profiling for kids and adults as well as Sensory Intelligence assessments on demand and at an extra cost.

What Our Families are Saying

The best daycare thus far in Alberton, their level of education is out of this world.
The teachers are absolutely amazing and principal simply the best ????.The educational activities and effort they put each week, it's extraordinary...
Teacher Ester, thank you so much for your teaching skills, patience and love you give to the little ones. We are truly grateful for the professional advice and the feedback????
My son has never been exposed to a group of his peers and because I work from home his speech was delayed and was introvert of note. We had to unexpectedly relocate to the east rand and he starts at grace in March but his progress amazes me daily.Everyone at school is super awesome. Special thank you to Principal Madeline and Teacher Esther. They are God sent.
Grace Daycare is an awesome, interactive and creative school that provides kids the opportunity to learn through play. Staff are friendly and always willing to assist. The school goes the extra mile when it comes to teaching the children real-life concepts and always presents activities in a fun way. A Christian school where you can always see and feel the love of Jesus. Definitely a school that is highly recommended if you want your child to grow up in a safe, loving and fun environment.
I am a happy parent, within few months of my child attending at Grace Daycare and Aftercare Alberton I saw great progress in him. The teachers are amazing and they really do care about our kids, they treat them like their own.
Great daycare and aftercare. My child spent her time here from 2017 to 2021. She learnt all her foundation skills and made friends easily with the other children. Great teachers and staff and rates are very reasonable. I highly recommend.
The best decision I ever made as a parent was to start my kids at this daycare. My 1st was at her happy place here and her little sister is also having the best time and love loves her daycare. A wonderful environment to watch kids flourish.
