About Us
Welcome
Red Deer’s newly developed, licensed childcare facility, Asma Family Childcare!
Located at the edge of Timberlands North, on the corner of Thorburn Avenue and Timberlands Drive, Asma Family Childcare provides parents with perfect accessibility from the comfort of a safe residential area.
Our centre is fully licensed and accredited, with 67 spaces to accommodate children from the ages of 19 months to 12-years old.
Our secure location in the newly developed community of Timberlands, allows us to incorporate outdoor experiences into our childcare program bringing nature into the children’s environment and invoking positive mental, emotional and physical development. As a result, we have personally designated 1600 square feet of our area towards an outdoor playground area.
We pride ourselves on the meaningful relationships we have built with families in the Red Deer community over the past 15 years with the support of our long-term staff. Hence, our new centre offers consistent support for children as they progress through the centre’s programs.

ABOUT ASMA MUNEER
Asma Muneer has been working in the childcare field for 20 years. She is extremely passionate about families and children. She grew up in a small town in Pakistan and moved to Ontario in 1999 with her husband and two children. Her husband is a professional engineer at Stantec, while her two kids are currently in medical and law school. She has developed a deep connection with the Red Deer community over the past several years, engaging and maintaining genuine connections with families, with whom she can see the fruits of her labour ripen through the positive influence she has on children. She began her career in the childcare industry at a daycare in Toronto before moving to Red Deer in 2005, where she began operating a day home through an agency, Red Deer Childcare. Her favourite part of being a childcare professional is when her former families come back to visit her after years to see how far the children have come. She takes maximal pride in her work knowing that the strong foundation she sets children up with, is conducive to their future successes. In her free time Asma enjoys baking and catching up with friends and family.
