    As one of New York City’s largest commuter towns, the need for a quality childcare facility in South Orange, New Jersey is something Dana Kearney noticed early on. Beginning with a babysitting service operated from her home, Kearney used her fifteen years of nursing experience to provide the best care possible for her children and the children of others in the community.

    As her business grew over the years, she outgrew her small home-based business, registered an LLC and created what is now known as Village Babies Development Center. With a spacious facility, Kearney’s business now offers not only care to children between the ages of six weeks and five years of age, but a variety of learning programs for children in each age category.

    Hitting the road again, our partners at Construction Proulx got us involved with one of their projects in the great province of Quebec. As part of this project in the small town of Amos, they enlisted our help to design and supply a highly customized divider curtain for a local school gym.

    Taking accurate measurements at Ecole La Foret, our team was able to get the exact dimensions and specifications required for the project. The school was interested in one of our top-roll gym divider curtains for their maintenance-free and aesthetically pleasing design but had some additional requests for customization.

    The sounds of our local parks and recreational areas are often found by following the joyful shrieks and giggles of happy children. As more municipalities across Canada and the United States continue to allocate funding to these outdoor areas, their popularity is growing in tandem with said investment.

    Heading to your local park or playground is the best way to appreciate these types of investments. The design and quality of the equipment found onsite has progressed a great deal from what was being installed just a few short years ago.

    Today’s playgrounds and recreational areas are built with safety in mind. Outside of the equipment, however, much attention must be paid to the amenities located around these areas as well. Posts, columns, trash receptacles, planters and other site additions must also be taken into account when assessing the overall safety of the recreational area.

    Nestled along the Gaspé Peninsula in eastern Quebec lies the town of Matane.  Bordered by the eastern province of New Brunswick, this picturesque area of Quebec runs along the south shore of the Saint Lawrence River. 

    The area was once a haven for fisheries, forestry and agriculture but has since become a tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world. Home to a number of National Parks, the peninsula is an eco-tourist’s dream and is offers a unique opportunity to spot whales from within the province of Quebec.

    One of our more recent projects gave us the opportunity to work in this unique landscape as we were awarded a tendered contract to provide Cégep de Matane with a new bank of telescopic bleachers. Providing students in the region with a pre-university and technical college, the school’s programming gives students the skills needed to continue in post-secondary education.
