Work that fills your heart (and theirs)

Caring for children is both a responsibility and a gift. At Paramount, you’ll use your gifts to nurture kids during some of the most important years of their lives, while supporting families who trust us every day. Guided by Christian values, our educators go beyond supervision—making sure each child feels safe, known, and encouraged to grow into the person God created them to be.

We’re looking for people who share that calling: warm, attentive caregivers who build genuine relationships, bring creativity to daily routines, and model kindness in all they do. If that sounds like you, you’ll find a team here that feels like family.

BECAUSE CAREGIVERS DESERVE TO BE CARED FOR TOO

From meaningful work to meaningful benefits, Paramount is committed to helping you thrive—personally and professionally.

OUR HISTORY

Paramount Family Centre opened in November 1993 as a ministry of Paramount Drive Alliance Church, serving just 32 children.

Over the years, our programs have grown steadily, and today we’re proud to provide care and support for more than 75 families across Hamilton and Stoney Creek.

OUR MISSION

Paramount Family Centre is a Christian childcare centre that embraces every child as a unique gift from God, nurturing the holistic development of children in an environment of kindness, respect and forgiveness. We foster a community of creative and compassionate playmates who treat others as they would want to be treated.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

We believe that positive early learning experiences set the foundation for lifelong growth. Each child is unique, so we follow an Emergent Approach to play-based learning—an approach that nurtures the whole child through physical, cognitive, language, emotional, social, and spiritual development. For us, these aren’t just classroom skills—they’re tools for life.

Our Guiding Principles

Early childhood development lays the foundation for lifelong learning, behaviour, and health.

Strong partnerships with families and communities help children thrive.

Respect for diversity, equality, and inclusion is essential for growth and learning.

A planned curriculum supports early learning.
