IMAGO DEI Child Care — Daycare & Preschool in Richmond, British Columbia

What parents say

• Gladys Yam

  This is a most wonderful find of a child care. We were very fortunate to have a spot when our previous daycare had to shutter down. Priska (owner and main teacher) has a wonderful heart for the kids and has taken a lot of care in this daycare, seen in the details of the actual location and furnishings, as well as in her teaching. She understands the trust that parents put in her. The annual graduation for the graduating kids is a very sweet event! Her teaching philosophy is child-directed (any other daycare would have slapped the name "Montessori" on) and she maintains a teacher-student ratio that is lower than required. The other teachers share her passion and the lower ratio allows for much greater attention, which was much needed for my very shy daughter. My daughter loved this place and it was sad for us to go. Highly recommend if you can get a spot!

  Imago Dei Child Care is the BEST choice I have ever made in my life. My child was a sensitive kid but the moment we met, my child fell in love with the teachers and the place immediately. We had visited many child care before this one; nothing comparable. The place was decorated with art works by the teachers and the students and you can feel the place is filled of imagination and creativity. It’s unique and special. The teachers are full of love and patient and they treasure and value each child’s uniqueness. Because of Imago Dei, my child grows up and changes a lot; from shy and sensitive to strong and confident. Really thankful for how the teachers have raised the kids. Thank you Teacher Priska and Teacher Cherry!

  We are really glad that we found IMAGO DEI Child Care for our 4 year old. After having looked around at many childcare with different teaching methods, we are so glad that the hands on teaching style here is perfect for our daughter. Most importantly, we loved the fact that Teacher Priska and Teacher Cherry taught our daughter with love and wisdom, and the amount of details they put into their teaching plans is simply amazing. With COVID messing up a lot of for our children the last 2+ years, we are glad to have found IMAGO DEI to provide our daughter a safe and clean environment to learn and interact with other kids. Even though she had only been here for 8 months, but we feel she is well prepared as she heads into Kindergarten next year!

  I am very fortunate to have my son learn in this preschool. After experiencing two other big-name day cares, i knew Imago Dei is the right place for my son. I loved this school when i first came to visit. I can feel dedication, caring and love in the every detail of the decoration and furnishings. Teacher Priska, who is also the owner, is a truly early-educational expert. I am very impressed by how creative and imaginative she teaches through play and how she enlightens child with provoking questions to improve their communication, cooperation and problem-solving skills. Teacher Cherry is also loved by child. She is passionate, committed and hard-working. The kids here are wonderful, caring and willing to help. My son loves going to school and loves all the teachers and friends. It's the best preschool you could ever find.
