After a lot of research into daycares in the area I finally settled upon Educara and I was not disappointed. Kayleigh, the owner, took her time to help answer all my question, the facilities are beautiful, the intergenerational program is exceptional, and best of all, the staff truly care about each and every child. Both of my children were happy and excited to go to school every morning; I miss those day! 😄 I would highly recommend this school to anyone; it genuinely is one of a kind.

This centre is a magnificent daycare!! The best decision and best investment my wife and I have made for our daughter so far has been to place her in Educara Montessori. The philosophy of this daycare is totally innovative and very much about giving the child a chance to express themselves independently. Our daughter has grown so much at Educara, we can't even believe it!! It's a really structured system that prepares the children for Kindergarten but at the same time, there is enough time for the kids to just be kids, to have sufficient play time as well. The staff is amazing and loving, and they have a ton of practical experience. After daycare one day, our three-year old daughter was singing a song naming all the continents, and talking about making scones and lemonade, and incubating baby chicks in the classroom! This daycare is incredible and the staff are rock stars!!! My wife and I cannot recommend this place enough. If possible, place your child in this centre! Believe me, you won't regret it!!!

Our family’s journey with Educara in Ottawa was one of those experiences that you don’t fully appreciate until it’s no longer within reach. We had the privilege of entrusting our children to their exceptional toddler and preschool programs, and in hindsight, we realize we may have taken the extraordinary quality of their care for granted. Educara’s staff exudes warmth, compassion, and a personal touch that is truly rare. They consistently went above and beyond to meet our children’s needs, creating a nurturing and welcoming environment. Upon relocating, we were confronted with the stark reality that not all childcare services are created equal. The void left by Educara’s absence in our daily lives has been palpable. The level of personal attention, commitment, and genuine care that was a daily norm at Educara is something we now realize is not easy to find. It’s a testament to their excellence that our expectations were so high - because they consistently met them. We wholeheartedly recommend Educara to any parent seeking more than just childcare - for those seeking a supportive, educational, and loving community for their children.

My daughter attended Educara for 2 years. The difference between home daycare and Educara was huge. My daughter built confidence thatade starting kindergarten a breeze. Also, her education level was beyond other children in her k Kindergarten class. Educara is a safe and caring environment for little ones. Worth every penny. My daughter misses her teachers and the delicious food.

I love this daycare. My son graduated last year but still missed the days when he was in this daycare. The owner, Ms. Kayleigh, and the staffs are very nice and caring. Their intergenerational program is amazing and the lunches they offer to kids are well planned. For me as a parent I think it is important that the teachers love kids and treat them with hearts and professionalism so that I can rest assured that they are in good hands. I will highly recommend this daycare.
