A wonderful daycare with amazing educators! The children are happy and spend plenty of time outdoors, enjoying a great balance of free play and group activities. The centre has a lovely, fenced outdoor space next to a peaceful street and is professionally run, with a thoughtful educational program focused on learning and development. The home-cooked meals are fantastic. Highly recommend!
