A place where educators feel at home
At Community Vision Family Day Care, we understand what it means to want something more personal. More connected. That’s what led Sandra, an experienced teacher of 25 years, to make the shift from long day care to opening her own centre, Pixie Hollow Family Day Care.
Sandra’s journey is just one example of how our Family Day Care team walks alongside educators as they create something that reflects who they are and what they value. When she joined us three years ago, she was looking for something genuine. Something steady. A network that didn’t feel like a system, but like people.
She found it here – with coordinators who know her by name, who check in regularly, and who offer support that’s grounded in respect.
Support that meets you where you’re at
Running a Family Day Care means balancing care, learning, admin, and more – often all at once. We know that what educators need most is someone they can count on, without being told how to do things or made to feel like they have to fit into a mould.
Our team builds relationships first. That’s why we’re always just a phone call or visit away, offering guidance that feels like working together, not being managed.
- We offer thoughtful advice that supports your independence.
- We stay present in the background – always available, never intrusive.
- We understand that care doesn’t stop with your centre – sometimes, life outside work needs attention too.
Educators like Sandra tell us they feel genuinely supported. Not in a surface-level, check-the-box kind of way, but in the way that matters when things get overwhelming.
The value of feeling connected
When you work in your own space, it’s easy to feel like you’re doing it all alone. That’s why connection is such a core part of how we work.
Through regular communication, inclusive events, and private online groups, we help our educators build real relationships – not just with us, but with each other. Sandra describes our team not just as colleagues, but as part of her extended family. That sense of belonging isn’t accidental. It’s built over time, with trust.
We’re here for the long haul
We’re proud to support educators who want to build something meaningful – not just for a few months, but for years to come. Our role isn’t to set the rules or take credit. It’s to walk alongside people who care deeply about the work they do, and to be there when they need a steady hand.
Sandra’s story is one of many. The care she provides at Pixie Hollow is hers, shaped by her values and experience. Our job is to make sure she’s never left to manage it all on her own.
