Parent Testimonials

"My son did his preprimary at the school and was set up for great success when he transitioned to the public school system. The kids enjoy many unique experiences and have learned many practical skills under Leah’s care. I am grateful for the support the Montessori has shown our family on more than one occasion."

"The best daycare! The environment is warm, safe, and welcoming. The staff members are incredibly caring and treat every child with love and attention. The owner is wonderful—always kind, professional, and truly dedicated to providing the best care and learning experience. I'm so happy my child is part of this amazing daycare family"

"We absolutely love this daycare! My girls (3 and 4) are so happy here. It's always super clean, organized, and structured — you can tell they really care. The owner and staff are amazing and have been so patient and supportive with my daughter who has separation anxiety. They make her feel safe and loved every day. Both of my girls are learning so much and always come home smiling. I'm so thankful we found this place!"

"Having had 3 kids go through every classroom level of this daycare over a course of 4 years I can say that it's an excellent choice for anyone who values child enrichment, as opposed to just occupying kids time until pick up. Everything they do with the children has underlying benefits for age appropriate development. From having a yoga instructor come in to the classes, to learning valuable fine and gross motor skills, and teaching social skills, acceptance, and neurodivergent aspects as well. The owner is extremely educated on child development and is always happy to have a chat about how your kid is doing, or if you have questions about behaviour/ development she's invaluable. The long term staff here are very caring and treat the kids with kindness and respect. They truly have really great teachers. Other positives: -They serve hot, homemade balanced meals, with flexibility for more picky eaters. - They have their own sprinter busses for pre school outings, so no worries about public transit. - The backyard play area is fabulous - They always have different crafts coming home, different activities and education topics on the go. Highly recommend."

"My children attended this daycare over a period of 4 years, so we have experienced every level of classes here. While they did have staffing issues over the Covid time period like everyone else, I found it the best match for my family because they strive to enrich the kids, not just occupy them. The owner is insanely knowledgeable about child development, the activities that the kids engage in often has hidden core skills. (Social, fine and gross motor skills, etc) One of my children has high functioning ASD. They have done so much to help her, and to understand her way of thinking and communicating so she has a better experience. The owner cooks homemade, nutritious meals and snacks for the kids, they have a fantastic back yard play area, the pre school kids go on field trips in the Center owned sprinter vans, so no public transport worries, they do age appropriate 'lessons' instead of just free play, and I feel my kids were very well prepared for public school and had a great head start from attending this daycare. I could go on but it's all to say the same thing. My experience has been, and continues to be great with this daycare. I have and will continue to refer them to my friends and neighbours."

"I'm very grateful to the Montessori House of Learning, especially to director Leah. They kindly accepted my daughter right away without a long waitlist. The teachers were always patient and caring, and even though my daughter can be challenging at times, they took the time to understand her interests and help her grow. She truly misses her teachers, it was such a warm and welcoming place for her."

"Being an experienced Mom of 3 now and having all my children attend Montessori Daycare, The Montessori House of Learning (MHOL) is, in my experience, the most professional, compassionate, and responsive childcare centre we have encountered. The staff are attentive and kind, and the principal has implemented advanced communication tools that allow parents to receive real-time updates — including photos, meal details, naps, and diaper changes. For a working parent of very young children, this level of transparency provides an invaluable sense of connection and peace of mind. My little one joined in the summer but given the short time he has been there, he has flourished — his vocabulary, motor skills, and social confidence have grown remarkably. It has been heartening to see him settle in so happily and thrive under the care of such dedicated educators. Keep up the good work, we are glad to have found a gem in our neighbourhood!"
