Welcome to the web site of the Ontario Early Years Centre - Elgin-Middlesex-London!

The Ontario government created Ontario Early Years Centres to be a place where parents and caregivers can get answers to questions, information about programs and services that are available for young children, and an opportunity to talk to early years professionals, as well as other parents and caregivers in the community. You and your child can visit the Elgin-Middlesex-London Ontario Early Years Centre for a range of free services including:

Early learning and literacy programs for parents and their children;
Parenting programs that support parents and caregivers of young children in all aspects of early child development;
Information and training for new parents about pregnancy and parenting.
Supports for families who have children with special needs
The Elgin-Middlesex-London Ontario Early Years Centre also brings together in one location information about children's services and programs in the community. If you have questions about your child's development, or want to know how to get information or services for your child aged 0-6 in Elgin-Middlesex-London, please visit your Ontario Early Years Centre at 7 Morrison Drive, St. Thomas, call us at (519) 631-9496, or e-mail us at oeycelginmiddlesexlondon@eyc.eacl.on.ca
