    The heritage building was used by milestone early centre, where our son was enrolled earlier. Unfortunately they moved out and all the kids had to relocate which was quite traumatic for the kids and inconvenient for the parents. To tell you the truth, we were little hesitant to start with Dashing ducks, same building but new provider. As it was closer to our home and has perfect location, we decided to book a tour. I am glad we stepped out of our comfort zone and fell in love with the place the moment we stepped through the door. Bright, polished, clean, new resources, fully renovated with warm smiling new teachers. Our son transitioned smoothly and loves it here now as he is getting prepared for the school next year. We get to see lovely photos of activities, meal times and play time with kids of different age. They all are like a family nurtured with love and affection while sharpening their academic skills at the same time. We will highly recommend parents to come and try out this place and surprise yourself by seeing how quickly your kid will settle down in their environment.

    Dashing Ducks is an absolute gem of a childcare center! From the moment we stepped in, we could feel the warmth, dedication, and genuine care that sets this place apart. They have turned around this heritage property to an amazing learning hub! Warm space where kids thrive, learn, and have an absolute blast! A massive shoutout to the incredible Amie, Shania ,Darshana,Kate,Phillipa and Poorthi including the rest of the team who go above and beyond every single day. They’re mentors, nurturers, and the heart of this place. Their patience, kindness, and passion for what they do shine through in every interaction. They truly know and care for each child, making them feel safe, loved, and encouraged to grow. Every day is packed with creativity, exploration, and learning through play. Whether it’s arts and crafts, sensory activities, outdoor fun, or early learning experiences, there’s never a dull moment. Our daughter is absolutely loving it! She comes home excited, full of stories, and eager to share all the fun and new things she’s learned. Seeing her so happy and engaged reassures us. The center itself is clean, well-organized, and thoughtfully designed for kids to explore and enjoy. The level of communication from the staff is also fantastic—we always feel informed and involved in Vanshi’s day, which is such a comfort as parents. If you’re looking for a place where your child isn’t just looked after but truly cherished, Dashing Ducks is the one. We can’t recommend them enough!
