  I’m very impressed with this Daycare my little one has been there for just over a year now. The program is amazing. The care is amazing the The teachers are very empathetic, caring, attentive, focused, and fun. The daycare does a lot of extra things for the families during the holidays, which I appreciated. The artwork is amazing. The daily programs that they have planned are very constructive and encouraging for parents that want their kids to be focussed and task Oriented also the kitchen staff is amazing. The food menu is one of the best I’ve seen at any Daycare. I’m so proud to have my child being taken care of at this facility. Thank you for everything you do, ladies.

  I did 3 days orientation with my daughter in the toddler room. The administrator Sandy was rude and wouldn't make time to speak with me. On several occasions i asked to meet and i was told "i don't need to meet with you". I wasnt clear on what the expectations were of our orientation and even though i tried to seek clarification they wouldn't meet with me. I was told by the other administrator Lori that I could stay as long as I wanted so on the 3rd day we stayed for lunch and attempted nap time. Sandy yelled at me from the door that naps happen the second week. She embarrassed me in front of everyone . The 2nd day i witnessed the teacher Amina grabbing the kids by the arms and plunking them on and off the toilet aggressively. She also said to the other teacher it was ok to skip part of the curriculum they post for the ministry. When i called the day care to voice my concerns i barely got an apology and i was blamed for everything. They wouldn't give me a portion of my $250 deposit.

  They were amazing with both my kids! Lovely staff that really care about the kids. I felt good knowing they were in good,caring hands. My kids now only go in the summer and they make it fun for them at an older age!! Would recommend!!

  I used to go there and honestly its great, the staff make it fun during the summer for children of a lower age but for older age they maybe need to do some work on that. during school days thought there great and make sure the children go outside for a good amount of time and make sure the children have a great selection of activities during the evening. I would highly recommend!!!!!!

  I dont think that lunch should be at 10.30am and last snack at 2.30pm. As well if I call during the day to check how kids are doing , they dont have time to answer. I had twins there and reprts were identical for both of them, I dont think they eat and slept equally... manager is nice but staff is rude...
