My son started here fairly young (11 months) and he was eagerly welcomed by each member. They all remembered and knew his name right away. They were loving and engaged him in a variety of activities. He came home happy everyday and had quickly established trusting bonds with his leaders.

The Churchill Park daycare near Riley Park has been outstanding with our little human being. He is treated like family, grows and learns so much from the staff, and genuinely loves to be there. We leave him there daily without feeling an ounce of guilt! I would highly recommended this daycare for anyone in the area needing child care. The staff are top notch and friendly! The only sad part is they only take kids up to 2 years old! I would love to leave our guy here longer.

I cannot possibly express the full extent of my gratitude for this daycare centre and the wonderful group that runs it. It was always clean, safe and efficiently run, but just as much if not more importantly it was always filled with so much love and joy. The care takers are such a positive, cohesive group that work so well together, and they truly do love all the kids that come into their care. I always felt that my kids were in the very best hands they could be outside of my own and I'll always be so grateful I found such a wonderful place for them.

My son went to more than 3 different daycares in the past. To be honest, this is the first time I feel comfortable and truly happy that he goes to a daycare! The place is very clean, organized, and safe for the kids. I like how they keep the parents updated of everything through the phone app everyday. They let the kids explore and learn through the daily indoor and outdoor activities. I have met with the teachers and the manager many times and they were very patient, well educated, and experts in their job. My son loves his teachers and friends A LOT!! he keep saying their names and gets so excited

I love Kids at Churchill Park Sunridge location. As a first time parent, it was a hard decision to enroll our son in a daycare. We were fortunate to find this new location and be part of the first generation of kids at the centre. The educators are so lovely and I can really tell that my son is comfortable and at ease around them. Every morning I leave him there knowing that he is in good hands. One of my favorite things is to receive updates during the day as of what he is up to. They plan the kids' days with different activities that are age appropriate and feed them in-house prepared food and

We are so grateful for the quality of care our two daughters have received at Babyworks. We're always impressed with the variety of educational (and fun!) activities the staff have planned for the children. The outdoor space is great and the staff often take the kids to nearby Riley Park. Our daughters have learned so much and have been given so much love, attention and encouragement from all the educators. They really take the time to get to know the children, and foster each child's individual development. We couldn't have asked for a better daycare experience and are forever grateful to the
