I cannot say enough good things about this school and its teachers. My daughter loves the…read moreenvironment and the teachers are so sweet and thoughtful. We are not overly religious, so I appreciate that they celebrate more than the Christian holidays. I would recommend St. Catherine's Childcare Society to anyone looking for a preschool or childcare.

Baking, making art, walking around the neighborhood, themed parties, singing, dancing... they do it all! We will miss them next year when my youngest is off to Kindergarten.

Based upon how expensive this daycare is, I expected it to be exceptional. When the person in…read morecharge admit to me that she doesn't care much for babies, I thought, "that's ok, I'm sure the actual caregivers are better, let's give them a chance." The workers seem exhausted, chatted very little with the children, and seemed to not understand much about early childhood development when I asked them for opinions on techniques and practices. They didn't read to the kids (storytime consisted of PLAYING A CD while flipping corresponding pages). The floors were dirty, many toys were grimey and broken. The play area was tiny and neglected. Not much room to explore and no stations to try out different things. A place where imagination goes to die. One kid kept pushing another while no workers caught it. My child (11 months) was slowly falling off a bike and was going to fall in a bad position so I ran over to stop. The outside "play area" had a rubber surface in poor condition and which had crumbled. Children (including mine) were eating bits of it and no one was stopping them. One kid had a mouth full of black rubber for at least an hour. A child found a housepaint brush in the (empty) sandbox with a VERY sharp handle and was putting it in her mouth when I stopped her. In all fairness, the worker had no idea how it got there. But why was a dangerous object there in the first place? Most of all I was disturbed by how little the workers paid attention to the kids. They all seemed clocked out. I know childcare is tough work but the two other daycares that my family is familiar with are cheaper, and STELLAR (unfortunately we moved away). The workers at the daycares I knew all had Education degrees and a sincere, genuine interest in early development approaches and provided compassionate, present, care. I thought this $$ corporate daycare would be at least as good. :/

Don't recommend to anyone. Just a horrible experience. On May 20, I arrived at the daycare earlier…read moreand found both of my children (twins) crying loudly. Their faces were red from prolonged distress, and they were both strapped into bouncer chairs in the kitchen area. Staff members, casually chatting and completely ignoring the children's cries. We had paid a deposit of $3,100 for both children, as well as fees covering the remain of May. Puran (owner) said she would return the deposit but refused to refund the fees for the 10 remaining days for each child. I chose to prioritize my children's well-being and removed them from the facility without further argument.

We have very bad experience with this daycare where policy above children. We highly not recommend…read morethis daycare. Our son have spent 2 hours and was crying so badly and was complaining that he was spanked. On suggestion that we have decided not to go ahead Puran replied that it was their policy to keep all money ($2000) for 2 hours we have spent. If you want to sign your child with this facility think twice and may be take your lawyer with you.
