Feeling steady enough to climb, explore, and join in can make a big difference in a child’s day. K is practising the skills that support those moments with Idan, our physiotherapist, and Giselle, our consultant. On the swing, they’re working on his balance, coordination, muscle strength, and body awareness.

As the swing moves, K gets opportunities to adjust his body and practise staying steady. That work supports everyday movements, from reaching for a toy to finding his footing on uneven ground. We choose play with purpose, helping children build skills they can carry into the things they want to do.

Thank you for trusting us with the questions, hopes, and milestones that matter to your family. Sharing in your children’s progress and getting to know the people who love them means a great deal to our team. This Thanksgiving, we’re grateful for that trust, and for the communities and partners who help us support families.

Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at Children North. 🧡 We hope your weekend brings a good meal, laughter with someone you love, and a chance to catch your breath. To the parents and caregivers who give so much of themselves, we hope you feel cared for, too.

When someone meets your child for the first time, you want them to see the child you know and love. At Jaelyn’s first appointment with the Doc, she gave us a place to start. A whole shelf of toys, and the balls were her favourite. Throw it, chase it, do it again. That was her idea of a great time.

We followed her lead because getting to know Jaelyn means paying attention to what matters to her. Her choice gave us a way to connect, understand how she explores, and help her feel comfortable in a new place. We want children to feel welcome here, with people who enjoy getting to know them and make room for their ideas.

Z loves playing in the kitchen, and Torino decided he needed to be part of it.
He wandered over, stayed close, and joined her play in his own way, calm, curious, and happy to be invited into her world. Z kept the game going, and Torino followed her lead like he always does.
Every so often the best moments are simple: a child playing, a dog showing up, and connection happening without anyone forcing it.

Crystal Peters and Anita Rainville, INSK Consultants, were at the Support Fair in Creighton.

Events like this make it easier for families to find the right supports without having to chase information from place to place. It’s one room, real conversations, and people who can point families in the right direction.

We’re glad Crystal and Anita could be there, connecting with community and helping families access what they need.

Ensley gets to be herself here. She doesn’t speak yet, and she has her own ideas about how play should go. Today, we followed her lead with cars, adding little “vrooms” and engine sounds, then pausing to give her room to respond.

That pause matters. It gives her a chance to join in and take a turn without the pressure to say a word. Following her interests keeps her engaged as we build those early exchanges together. We’re making space for her to experience something every child deserves: having someone take an interest in what they’re sharing and respond with care.

We walked to remember children who should have had the chance to grow up. On September 30, our team joined the community in La Ronge for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day walk. Together, we honoured the children who never came home, Survivors, and the families and communities who continue to carry the impacts of residential schools.

Thank you to the Lac La Ronge Indian Band for bringing our community together in remembrance. As people working with children and families, we carry a responsibility to listen to Indigenous families, respect their languages and cultures, and build relationships where children feel safe and valued. Every Child Matters must guide the care we provide every day.

🐾 When your child feels unsure about an appointment, that first smile means a lot. Hemi helps make room for those smiles, even while appointing herself our official toy inspector. She gave our new toys a thorough sniff before settling in, looking quite satisfied with her work.

Her silliness gives children something to smile about and a gentle way to connect. For a parent watching their child begin to feel comfortable, that matters. Building trust takes patience, and Hemi is right there with us, helping children feel welcome as they explore, play, and learn.
