The structure of the school is great - but the teachers and its parent involvement aspect are what make this school truly special. Teachers Jasmina and Nalini provide guidance, have the utmost care for their kids and make every day special for them. Parent involvement brings this community closer together. If you're looking for a place for your kids to learn and explore, teachers that guide your toddlers, and a great community, I encourage you to check out Wesbrook.

To say just a few great things about it: it has got wonderful teachers, who are most kind, caring, and creative; it has a fabulous school yard and garden; it's next to the forest, which the kids often explore. My son has been having such a wonder time, and he could not wait to start a new week during the weekends. We, the parents, also got a lot of friendships from the fellow parents.

Love! Love! Love! This preschool!…read more My eldest started at a different preschool but unfortunately they closed their doors and we had to find a new preschool. We are sooooo grateful we found University Hill Preschool. This preschool is top notch. After being at two different preschools we can see the difference in care. The Teachers at UHill are so caring, loving and motherly. After sending our eldest here, there was no doubt in our minds that we would send our youngest as well. We live in Dunbar and there is a bit of a commute, but we know our youngest is in great hands. She absolutely adores the preschool, all the Teachers and her friends. Thanks to Uhill my kids LOVE going to school. They ask to go to school even on their days off. Best Vancouver Preschool for sure!

They have an opening for part time enrollment (Mondays and Fridays) if anyone is interested (a rare and potentially very attractive arrangement for someone who wants to ease a young child into school). Matoula and her team are awesome, the program is intimate with about 8-10 kids, and the families we met were great. Thanks!

After only 5 weeks at this school Teacher Nicole approached me in the doorway of the school( in…read morefront of all the other parents and children) and told me she believed my son was Autistic and non verbal. I was not only shocked with the statement but the way she brought this to my attention was very unprofessional and disrespectful. When I asked for examples as to why she thought this the only thing she could say was that he 'liked to line up his toys'. We pulled him from environment immediately as we were deeply worried about how little they knew about my very talkative and expressive son. Since then when chatting with other parents in the community I have respectfully shared (when asked) that it wasn't a right fit for us, but I have heard from over 8 different families that they have been told similar autistic diagnoses from Nicole. I only write this review in hopes that the next parent that is told this difficult news knows the school's backwards enthusiasm for diagnosising children and placing huge amounts of unnecessary stress on parents.

My child is only 19 month and she took the chance to let her discover and learn, without teaching her with patience. After circle time that teacher stood up walking with out care and bumped into my child and kicked her into a very sharp table corner, dented her forehead and my child started bleeding. The whole classroom wasn't protected, but right after this happened they started to put up all the protection for sharp corners......I was very upset and disappointed. The principal also called me after, but her phone call made me felt worse, and she said she was going to check back with me and I never received another phone call from her! My child has a scar on her forehead and the dent is still there after more than a month. I have taken my child to many daycare and community center, and we are still waiting to be called on a few wait list, since this school has opening, I thought I could take her there for the time being, but This is the worst school we have been to, and I suggest moms that wants to apply think twice, because they are very unprofessional. If this system could let me choose no star, I wouldn't have given one！
