For parents of children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or developmental delays, finding the right balance of care, learning, and socialization can feel like a puzzle. Daycare is often a cornerstone of early childhood, offering kids a chance to play, interact, and grow alongside their peers. But what if your child needs extra support to thrive in that environment? That’s where Advance Therapy Canada steps in with our innovative ABA Therapy at Daycare program—bringing personalized support right into your child’s daily routine.
What is ABA Therapy at Daycare?
Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) is a proven, evidence-based approach that helps children with autism develop key skills—like communication, social interaction, and behavior management—while reducing challenges that might hold them back. At Advance Therapy Canada, we take this powerful therapy out of the clinic and into the daycare setting, blending it seamlessly into your child’s day. Our trained therapists work alongside daycare staff to provide one-on-one support, ensuring your child gets the most out of their time with peers.
Think of it as a bridge: ABA therapy at daycare connects the structure of therapy with the natural, social world of early childhood education. It’s individualized support delivered in a group setting, tailored to your child’s unique needs.
Why ABA Therapy at Daycare Works
Daycare is more than just a place to spend the day—it’s a hub of learning and connection. By bringing ABA therapy into this environment, Advance Therapy Canada unlocks a range of benefits that help your child shine. Here’s why it’s a game-changer:
- Social Skills in Action
Daycare is a social playground, and that’s exactly where kids with autism can practice skills like sharing, taking turns, or saying “hello.” Our therapists use these real-time moments to teach and reinforce social behaviors, helping your child build friendships and feel included. - Learning in Context
Skills stick best when they’re practiced where they’re needed. Whether it’s following a group routine, asking for a snack, or joining circle time, our ABA therapists guide your child through these everyday scenarios. This hands-on approach helps them generalize skills beyond therapy sessions. - Smooth Transitions
For many kids with autism, moving between activities or environments can be tough. At daycare, our therapists work on transitions—like going from playtime to storytime—making them less stressful and more manageable, both at daycare and at home. - Collaboration with Daycare Staff
Advance Therapy Canada partners with daycare providers to create a consistent, supportive experience. We train staff on your child’s goals and strategies, turning the whole daycare team into allies in your child’s progress. - A Boost for Busy Families
No extra trips to a therapy center—just drop your child off at daycare as usual, and we’ll handle the rest. It’s a convenient way to fit high-quality ABA therapy into your packed schedule without missing a beat.
How Advance Therapy Canada Makes It Happen
At Advance Therapy Canada, we’re all about personalization and practicality. Here’s what our ABA Therapy at Daycare program looks like in action:

- On-Site Support: Our skilled therapists join your child at daycare, providing one-on-one guidance during key moments of the day. They’re there to teach, encourage, and celebrate every milestone.
- Teamwork with Families: We keep you in the loop with regular updates and tips you can use at home. Plus, our parent coaching sessions empower you to reinforce what your child learns.
- Flexible and Local: Serving families across the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and beyond, we work with your chosen daycare to bring therapy where it’s needed most.
A Day in the Life
Imagine this: your child arrives at daycare in Mississauga, greeted by familiar faces. One of our Advance Therapy Canada therapists is there too, ready to help. During craft time, they guide your child to ask for glue instead of grabbing it. At snack time, they practice saying “please” with a big smile. By pickup, your child’s beaming—not just because they had fun, but because they’re growing in ways that matter.
Our therapists track progress, tweak strategies, and collaborate with daycare staff to ensure every day builds on the last. It’s therapy that feels like play—and fits right into your child’s world.
