What sets Alpha apart from other child care centres is its family atmosphere and commitment to the ongoing training or our long-term staff. Parents who visit Alpha for the first time often comment on how the centre feels comfortable and safe.

Catherine Humphreys - Owner
Operating a child care centre requires a unique balance between business principles and a warm, loving, fun and educational place for children. My name is Catherine Humphreys and I have been in the child care field for over 30 years. In 1981 I started Alpha Child Care Ltd. Over the years it has grown and now accommodates approximately 183 children. My partner and my son, Greg, and I employ and work with approximately 40 child care professionals. Child care is a complicated and ever-changing business. It is imperative that we stay informed about new trends in early childhood education and often take the industry lead in child care development. We participate in and maintain membership in several child care organizations. As a result of our leadership role in Peel's child care field we have been asked to consult and advise on new and unusual situations for many other child care operators across the province. Our commitment to you and your family is to provide the highest standard of child care for your children in a safe and nurturing environment.

Greg Humphreys - Owner
Welcome to a new school year at Alpha Child Care! My name is Greg Humphreys and I am one of the owners of Alpha which is 26 years old this year. When Alpha opened its doors in 1981, I can remember organizing all my school friends to help with assembling equipment and distributing flyers to local houses and apartments. Since then I have graduated Central Peel Secondary School and graduated with my Specialized Honors Degree from York University. In 26 years I have progressed from cleaning the day care after school to being part owner of the company.

You will usually find me at the office working on staff development, budgets, payroll, accounts receivable, accounts payable, lease issues, advertising and other miscellaneous office duties. I regularly drop in to our two day care locations to do repairs and improvements and talk with staff and parents.

Maintaining quality care is my number one priority since there is nothing more important to me than the health and safety of your child(ren). I believe that all the Alpha staff provide a unique family environment for your child(ren) that distinguishes us from other day cares. It is a great honor working with our staff who care for your children as if they were their own. Alpha is continuously training and coaching staff to be the best they can. I believe that our focus on staff development is the reason why we have such low staff turnover and consequently, why our program is of such high-quality.


I look forward to growing with you.
