We have them here in Ottawa (Canada) too and they have training programs for it. Part of me wants to do it but part of me feels like I already do it to an extent. I used to take my daughter to their half day drop ins so I got a feel for how everything was run.

I think it is a great selling point BUT the type of parents who like that kind of thing are very much “crunchy” and big into attachment parenting/cosleeping that sort of thing. I used to advertise with pictures of my loose parts backyard and my natural philosophy and I attracted a lot of kooks with kids with attachment disorders!
