What Families Think About St. Jacobs Dayare

“Thank you so much for making my son’s daycare experience truly memorable.”

He met so many fantastic people and learned so much. His experience at daycare helped him grow to be a caring, funny, energetic and talkative six year old! Words can’t describe how grateful we are that he was part of such a great ‘family’ at St. Jacobs Daycare! Thank You!

“A big thank you to all of you taking care of my baby girl.”

I can’t believe she is going into grade one. I want you to know how much I really appreciated all those mornings I would come in with a little girl who wasn’t in the greatest of moods yet and you somehow got her to leave mom and be on her way. You are amazing and I tell everyone with small children looking for childcare about you and the centre. Thank you so much!

“Each day we had confidence that our children were in good hands.”

Both of our children went to the St. Jacobs Daycare from 18 months old through to kindergarten. Each day we had confidence that our children were in good hands. The educators were always so thoughtful, creative, and knew our children well which made a big difference. Our children learned so much there. Denise and Meghan were also very welcoming, approachable, and accommodating. We continue to recommend this daycare to our friends and family members. We miss it already!

“I am so appreciative for the love, care, fun and learning my granddaughters experienced at St. Jacobs Daycare.”

I was an educator and spent my last dozen years as an elementary principal. 
Your care, activities and programming for all the children give them such an advantage when they start kindergarten. Part of me wishes they could stay here until grade 1 as I think your program excels. 
They loved coming every day and loved all their teachers. You have had such a profound effect and have been a true gift to my grandgirls.
Your playground is superlative and surpasses any I have seen. 
Thank you also for your kindness and support to me.
