At Jemasen Early Explorers, we offer part-time and flexible childcare services in Ottawa, Ontario. You get safe, trusted, and convenient care without committing to a full-day program. Families choose our flexible care services because they meet real needs. Your routine changes, and your childcare should adapt with it.
Our programs help parents manage everyday responsibilities with confidence. We support you with dependable caregivers and a welcoming environment.
We offer several programs to match different needs. Every program is designed to give children a safe, engaging, and supportive environment.
Hourly care support is perfect for parents who only need childcare for a short time. You can book a few hours whenever you need to handle errands, appointments, or work tasks. This option is ideal when you want quick, reliable coverage without a full-day commitment.
You pay only for the hours you use, making it one of the most flexible care services in Ottawa.
Our part-day care services offer structured learning and play for children during morning or afternoon sessions. These programs give your child time to explore, interact, and learn in a safe environment.
Part-day care works well for parents who want a consistent schedule but a shorter one. Your child enjoys activities, outdoor play, and early learning while they are with us. Our part-time caregiving options give you the freedom to plan your day.
Short-shift caregiving is designed for 2–5 hour blocks. This is ideal for part-time workers or parents who need short-term daytime support. It provides dependable coverage while you manage work or personal responsibilities.
Your child stays engaged and supervised throughout the entire shift.
Some parents work rotating shifts. Others have schedules that change every week. Our rotating and custom schedule care allows families to update their child's hours as needed.
You choose your weekly plan without long-term contracts. This flexible scheduling helps parents stay organized even when work hours shift often.
Life happens. That is why we offer occasional childcare and backup care to support families during unexpected moments. If a meeting pops up, a shift changes, or your regular childcare falls through, we are here to help.
This option gives you peace of mind, knowing that safe childcare is available when you need it most.
Jemansen Early Explorers provides flexible part-time child care services within a licensed home child care setting, operating in compliance with the Child Care and Early Years Act (CCEYA) and all applicable Ontario regulations.
Our part-time program is designed to support families who require care for specific days or hours while ensuring children experience consistency, safety, and high-quality care. Children enrolled part-time are fully integrated into the daily program and participate in planned routines, learning experiences, meals, and rest periods alongside full-time children.
Our program is guided by Ontario’s pedagogy for the early years, How Does Learning Happen? and is grounded in the four foundations of Belonging, Well-Being, Engagement, and Expression. Through a play-based, child-centred approach, we support each child’s social, emotional, physical, and cognitive development in a nurturing home environment.
Care is provided in accordance with provincial requirements for:
Health and safety practices
Supervision and child-to-provider ratios
Daily routines and transitions
Responsive and inclusive caregiving
We work collaboratively with families to develop part-time schedules that align with licensing standards, promote continuity of care, and support each child’s individual needs and well-being. Part-time enrollment is subject to availability and schedule compatibility to ensure compliance and the highest quality of care for all children.
