Excellent preschool…read more The teachers are wonderful and really love working with little ones. They offer half day classes for 3-5 yr olds 2, 3 or 5 days a week. The crafts are great. My daughter is always singing songs she learns at school. This location is for residents of surrounding communities, Harvest Hills and Country Hills. I highly recommend this preschool for your precious little ones.

11 year alumni here! This place is trash. I got bullied from grade 3 to grade 9 by both students…read moreand teachers, I was yelled at for not doing work fast enough due to medical reasons, as well as not achieving excellence in every class. Waldorf did not prepare me for highschool in the slightest either. There are barely any science or social studies classes (apparently dance and woodshop are more important), nor is there any learning or emotional support from any staff. A kid in my class killed a bird during recess and was only warned not to do it again. Preschool and kindergarden aren't bad, but in the end your kid is going to be traumatized by the education system anyways, so its up to you if you want to pay for it. (also don't send your kid to Clearwater Academy (it's worse))

I was on phone with the owner Marlene several times before the enrolment and could tell she was really struggled and trying really hard to make this happen especially in the pandemic environment. No need to mention how great the teachers, food and facilities are. My boys are treated like families and are so happy and leaning a lot everyday. They even ask if they can go to the daycare on weekends :)

This daycare is great, the teachers are very nice and try to make each kid feel special. They know everyone's names and all the parents' names. Every evening after picking my daughter up, I receive a few photos of her with the day's activities and a full report, which is so nice to get and is very helpful. The curriculum is awesome, my 1 year old is active throughout the day, and they are so creative with activities: from art to music to crafts even at this young age. They also go for a walk or play in their outside yard most days if the weather permits. The food at the daycare is pretty good, but is somewhat grains heavy, includes a lot of bread, pasta, rice etc. Of course, kids like it. I try to balance it out at home by giving more meat and veggies.

My kids & I are greeted each morning with a genuine welcome and breakfast which is a relief as I'm always rushed to get to work. When I arrive to pick them up, I am personally told how they were through the day, something special they enjoyed doing , even if it was how much they loved their lunch.(Salmon rice pilaf & pancake Friday's are their favourites ! ) My toddlers face is always freshly washed & a fresh diaper change for the drive home. My older daughter is always excited to show & tell me about new Montessori activities, and seems to be learning way more than her cousins of same age. Thank you ladies for the wonderful care you provide. Can't wait for her to start kindergarten with you in Sept to give me one more year of assurance that I am leaving them in safe hands before starting Elementary.

Hi, former graduate here! I thought that I should add my two cents to this yelp page…read more MVA was an amazing place to learn and connect. I attended from grade 2 - 12 and enjoyed every minute of it. The academic integrity of this school is above any other that I know of, and the teachers are incredibly passionate about their jobs. I wasn't a role model student, I needed a little bit more help than some, but the teachers would always put in the extra time to help me and to make sure that I understood the material. My colleagues that left MVA for another high school have often told me that the switch wasn't worth it because they were receiving a lower grade of education in trade of a bigger school with my more kids. If it weren't for the extra care and attention I received while I was attending school, I would likely not be studying for my B.Sc Psyc at UVic today. MVA helped build a solid foundation for my education, and as a result have opened many doors for me that may not have been available otherwise. Though I am bias in my opinion, obviously, it is only because I did go to the school for over a decade; I experienced first hand the quality and care that all the teachers (including the administration, as they often switch between teaching and managing) give to their students. If I could go back in time and choose differently, I wouldn't. I love this school, and if I have children in the future, MVA is my first choice. 5/5 - Would attend again

As an ESL student, I often needed extra help from the teachers due to my English level at the time, the teachers always stayed after school to assist me to go over the materials I needed help with. Because the class size was relatively small compared to public high schools, the teachers were able to ensure each one of their students was getting the best education they deserved. As an international student who came to Canada alone, I needed help not only with school but also with things in life in Calgary, i.e. finding a homestay family to stay with, extending my study permit and having someone there for me to talk to when I needed. I couldn't thank Mrs. P and Mrs S enough for all they've done for me throughout my journey here. They've gone above and beyond for what their responsibilities were as my high school principals. They took care of me like I was one of their children. My parents to this day still talk about them and thank them for taking such a good care of me. As cheesy as it may sound, MVA to me was not only my high school, but also my home. The help I received from MVA did not stop after I graduated from the school. After I graduated from MVA, I was accepted to University of Calgary. I was able to come back to school and asked the teachers to help me to go over my papers when I needed help. I graduated from the university 4 years later, and have been working for an oil and gas company since. Without the education and the help I received from MVA, I wouldn't be where I am today. Yelp only allows me to give 5 stars, I give MVA 1,000,000 stars!!
