This childcare centre was our first visit when looking for a place for our daughter to spend the day and learn with other kids in the local community. We didn’t go anywhere else after the tour, the staff was great and welcoming, the facilities are clean. We are very happy with this place to be our girl’s first learning centre. The food is amazing too !! 100% recommend

And we’re so glad the food is a hit too—our chefs will be thrilled to hear that! 😊 Thanks again for your kind words and recommendation. It truly means the world to us.

My little one started going here when he was 10 months old. Even though it took him about four months to really stop crying when I was dropping him off, after just a few weeks I already saw him enjoying the place at pickup time. After a few months, he would run away from me every time he saw me coming for him — at least that was a good sign he didn’t want to leave! All the amenities are in good condition, and their open backyard is where my boy enjoys himself the most. The educators are lovely, and he has already bonded with a few of them. I love the fact that I receive daily photos of my toddler — seeing him grow and enjoy time with his peers makes my day. I’ve had a good experience here, and I can tell everyone takes great care of him, always greeting him with a big smile and a warm welcome. Special thanks to Maria, who from day one made me feel absolutely comfortable when she showed me around, giving me the trust that my boy would be in a good place.
Response from the owner3 months agoMaria, it means the world to us to hear how much your little one has grown to love his time here. We know how emotional those early drop-offs can be, so it’s incredibly rewarding to see him now running off to play and enjoying his days with us. We're so glad you’ve felt supported and welcomed, especially by Maria, who will be thrilled to hear your kind words. The daily photos are one of our favorite ways to stay connected with families, and we’re so happy they brighten your day. Thank you again for your trust and for being such a wonderful part of our community!
