The Wellness for Children program at Canadore College is a non-degree course for students who want to learn about children's wellness in a child care setting. This English-language course lasts several weeks and is open to students with a high school education. Its main advantage is that it helps students create a healthy environment for kids.

The curriculum covers health, safety, and nutrition practices for children. Students learn strategies for maintaining a healthy child care environment and examine accessories, behaviors, and conditions that pose safety risks. They also learn about healthy nutrition and activity for kids.

After completing this course, students can work as child care workers, early childhood educators, or youth workers. They can also find jobs as family support workers, or recreation workers for children. These careers are available in schools, community centers, and child care facilities.
