Bluebird Daycare Centre — Daycare & Preschool in North Vancouver, British Columbia

What parents say

• Pam P

  I simply do not have the words to describe what a true blessing Puran and Bluebird Daycare is. It is so daunting to leave your child in the care of someone else. Puran was made for this role..it is her love and her calling. It is quickly obvious that she completely and totally loves/adores each and every little human that is in her care. Loves them like her very own. We had the most amazing experience with her and her team. Very very highly recommended.

  We enrolled our 14month old son at another daycare, because we thought a social setting would help him get comfortable around other people and be more social. He was extremely shy and would cry a lot near strangers. I gave him a few weeks to settle but clearly he was very unhappy there and in just 2 months, I was searching again for someone who would understand the situation and help my son get through that phase. I visited 3-4 daycares before coming to Bluebird. After I met Puran, I knew this was the place for him. She really listened to my concerns. She is great with kids; very patient, caring and disciplined at the same time and in the right way. I admire the way she has handled and looked after our son. He's been there for 2 yrs now and has never complained of not going to his daycare even once! My younger son has also joined Bluebird now and is very happy there. I highly recommend it.

  Our daughter has been going to Bluebird Daycare since she was 10 months old and absolutely loves it! The owner and care workers are kind and loving with the children. Anytime I drop off or pick our daughter, I see the children having fun. Not sure where someone got the idea Bluebird are spanking the children, perhaps that's a problem in their own home. It is difficult leaving your child in daycare for the first time, but this has been an excellent experience for us. We highly recommend this daycare and I'm sure others will agree.

• Erin Dermer

  Our son has been at this daycare since he was 10 months old and we wouldn't want him to be anywhere else; I would recommend Bluebird to any parent that wants their child to develop social, cognitive and physical skills in a safe and nurturing environment. Puran and her team are adored by the children and their parents and genuinely care for each child under their care. They routinely report stories and anecdotes about which children have special bonds with one another, which songs are their favourites, how their eating skills are coming along, etc. They are genuinely invested in the development, happiness and health of the children. We looked at several facilities before selecting Bluebird and continue to feel that we made the very best choice for our son, and our family.

  From the daddy- Bluebird Daycare is a home away from home for our son! We looked at many daycare options and after visiting at least a dozen on the north shore and near our work, we went back to the first one we visited which was Bluebird. Our son has been in now for over 7 months and loves it. Puran has assembled an amazing team and I would highly recommend Bluebird to any caring parents. Leaving a child in daycare especially for the first time can be and was very hard but knowing that he is so cared for by the Bluebird family is a special feeling. I would be happy to share our wonderful experience with anyone looking into day homes daycares Montessori schools etc on the north shore. We have met with many of the parents and have only heard great things about their experience. For somebody to make these claims is shocking but is ABSOLUTELY not a reflection of Bluebird. They are amazing people that not only we love but more importantly our son loves. I don’t want to dwell on the negative review but please understand that some children may not be suitable for such a loving and caring environment. Not to mention our sons grandmother has been in child and family care for over 30 years and has been so impressed with every aspect of Bluebirds operation! - JARED RAND • • • ***** Our son has been going to Bluebird Daycare for almost 8 months now. I'm one of those parents that researched every daycare on & off the North Shore and went to visit about 10 daycare's in North Vancouver and I can honestly say without a doubt that Bluebird was the best choice. This is our first son and I found the transition of going back to work and leaving him with someone really hard. Bluebird was amazing and understood what I was going through as a new mama. They are educated, kind, loving and most of all my husband & I trust them with our son. When we pick up our son a lot of the time he doesn't want to leave right away. He is such a happy kid there and has so much fun with Puran & all the staff. He has meet some really wonderful friends and I feel totally confident that Puran & the staff treat these children as their own. So if you are considering Bluebird simply talk to any of the parents that have their children there (for longer than 5 days or whatever the parent who wrote this awful review had their child there for) including me because in my option picking a daycare was our biggest decision as parents so far. - Amie Rand
