History
Established in 1995.
In 1995, we were known as Ecole Face a Face, offering only a half-day bilingual program catered to 2 – 5 year olds. We used to have a bus service and were solely a preschool. The demand for full days became a need in Laval and the preschool became a private daycare in 2002 – 2003. Thus changing the name from Ecole Face a Face to Garderie Educative Bilingue Face a Face. The owner, Christina Strigas, runs and operates the daycare with 35 spots available.
She has a degree in English Literature from Concordia, a degree from Universite de Montréal in Teaching English as a Second Language to high school students and an AEC from Vanier College in the field of Early Childhood Education.
Seventeen solid years of teaching young minds in a bilingual environment.
