Open Arms Preschool has felt like home for the past 2 and a half years. My daughter started going there when she was 18 months old and she's been cared for by loving and patient teachers. The facility is clean and organized, and did such a good job maintaining the safety protocol during COVID. The webcam and apps were great communication tools to receive updates and see what the kids are up to. I am so grateful to have found such a warm and caring environment for my daughter!Read more
This is a wonderful place for children to gain social skills with other children. The teachers are nurturing and my kids love the meals and activities even though they are limited. I'm looking to the day things can go back to normal so our kids can get more activity outdoors in their giant playground.Read more

I am a proud mother of 2 and both of my kids attend Early Years DC for the last 8 months. I can only say the love and care, the service the entire staff provides day in day out is really one of a kind. You have to be very passionate about kids to work the way they work. Rooms are spotless, on-site cooking always fresh and tasty to kids. I had big concern at first as it was first time for my kids to be in DC, but they always listened to my calls and concerns. I honestly can only recommend them.Read more

As a busy single mom, it’s not easy to trust a daycare to take care of your child while you’re at work all day. Botsford Academy has been a home away from home for my son, and I am so grateful. My son started at Botsford when he was nine months, and is now in their before and after school program, and I am dreading the day that he grows out of this amazing daycare. My son is leaps and bounds ahead of others thanks to the preparation in the Montessori Casa class. Read more
Thanks to the Sanazy’s preschool and Preschool Staff for a job well done with providing care for my son Shawn. I appreciate all of the support and service they offer to the families.

She loves daycare now and built up very healthy, strong relationship with us, caregivers and the other kids. They provide healthy food/snacks freshlyRead more

My son has grown so much over the past few months & I know a huge part of it has to do with the dedication of the team at Jelly Bean. Wish we signed up earlier!Read more

The best daycare in Richmond hill! I have been with this daycare since 2007 all my 4 kids had started at this daycare from the pre-school class; until kindergarten. They follow the Reggio method of teaching to the JK & SK students. It's always been an easy progress for my kids to Grade 1 as they knew more than most of the other kids in class. Currently my youngest is doing great at JK when I compare him with kids going to the school. The staff is very polite and nurturing, always accommodating to parents requests. An onsite Chef to prepare Hot healthy lunches provided with two snacks, beautiful ambience and colourful setting for the little creative minds with lots of pictures to keep the little troopers on their toes:) last but not least the Owner - Orit Gal is an amazing person inside out and her love for children has led her business grow so successful- Keep up the good work!Read more

Zoe's Tender Years Child Care And Nursery Will Provide Children And Their Families With An Exceptional Early Learning Experience Within A Supportive And Caring Environment.more...See more text
So I have had my son in Zoe's now for about 5 months and both my husband and I are just so happy with them. My husband and I went searching for the day care that would work best for the 3 of us, and when we found Zoe's we signed up with them on the spot.
The first thing we loved about them was they work with my husband's schedule which is amazing as my husband does not have a 9-5, Monday to Friday job.
The second thing we loved about them was the home made food that the cook makes for the kids every day. You can smell the delicious food every time you walk in there and you can see the cook hard at work. Its nice knowing my son is getting a delicious home made hot lunch.
Third thing we love about the school (and this we only got to see once my son started going there) is the staff. The love and affection my son gets from his teachers is amazing and it makes me happy as a mom to know my son is being taken care of. My son goes to few people willingly but when he see's his teachers he has no problem going into their arms. He has adjusted so well into this school that I know my son is in great hands.
Another couple of things that we really like about the school is the webcam. Its nice knowing I can take a peek at what my son is up to at that moment.
And lastly is the great director that Zoe's has on staff. The directors name is Stephanie...such a joy to see and talk to every time I walk in with my son. Always has a smile ready to great the parents and has not let us down when helping us out with my husbands schedule.
I recommend this school to all my friends who have had kids and I will continue to recommend them as I could not have found a better day care!Read more

Great! My experience so far has been just great!!!First they are actively involved in weaning him off completely from training pants.Then, my son before now won’t let me hold his hands when we are out of the house.He just wants to run free & he knows nothing of the dangers of moving vehicles, etc. Going to the mall or just about anywhere that we need to walk is a nightmare.But guess what?His teachers/caregivers have taught him to hold my hand. It’s all so surreal.Thank u!Thank u!!Thank u!!!Read more

The confirmation is in: the stork will be flying overhead in a few months. Quick! It’s time to get looking for childcare services. That’s no joke; your return to work will come fast enough, and daycare waiting lists are long in Richmond Hill ON.
Step one: Listen Word of mouth is always a good starting point. If you have friends who already have children in childcare services, ask them how they found their babysitter or daycare centre. Get several points of view so you can make a list of all the advantages and disadvantages of each kind of child care provider.
Step two: Browse the Internet and newspapers A search on your provincial government’s family services website may turn up a list of regulated childcare services in Richmond Hill ON. You can also find information on their website about financial assistance for child care. Whether regulated or not, home daycares sometimes advertise in newspapers or on community websites providing information on available space.
Step three: Visit See if it’s possible to visit the daycares or home child care facilities you’re considering. Ask lots of questions and gather information about their policies on the following things:
Staff training
Emergency care plans
Hygiene and cleanliness
Food and allergies

Late pick-up policy
Step four: Register Once you’ve made the rounds of the childcare services available in Richmond Hill ON, it’s time to pick the ones you like best and put your name on their waiting lists. Depending on the situation in your area, it may be a good idea to put your name on several lists. In the meantime, make the most of your pregnancy to get ready and be sure to enjoy every precious minute at home with your baby.
