Language Nest
The vision of our Language Nest is that all children and adults attending will become fluent speakers of the Gitksan language; that culturally relevant materials and programming will be provided for all our children; and that the program will provide a healthy and safe environment for all our children between the ages of 0 to 4 years of age.
Our center and community will aim to guide parents and students’ learning in a way that includes our language, culture and traditions. Our educational program will give our students the tools to understand themselves and the world around them and enable them to live independent lives

Gitanmaax Daycare
The Gitanmaax Daycare programs are based on the importance of nurturing each child’s self-concept and enhancing his/her development by providing many successful experiences. We feel that it is vitally important in the early years to provide a variety of experiences which foster brain development, realizing that this is critical for each child to develop to their fullest potential.
We believe it is important to introduce your children to areas that will encourage their natural curiosity and exploration of their surroundings. The use of hands-on manipulative activities will enrich concept development and enhance intellectual development. Motor development is an equally important component. Our play equipment and activities are designed to facilitate physical strength, agility, and coordination. Children are provided with many opportunities to learn and practice social skills such as: taking turns, good manners, problem solving, and communication with other children and adults.
Our emphasis is on a well-rounded program for children, that is designed with their developmental needs in mind. We feel each child is special, and this is evident through the individual attention and care each child receives at our center.
