Itty Bitty Scholars Daycare — Kid-friendly Daycare & Preschool in Toronto, Ontario

What parents say

• Daniela

  My boys attened this daycare from 1 years old until they went to JK. We had a wonderful experience here. The environment was truly loving and supportive. The kids learned so much during their time there—not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. By the time they graduated, they were confident and ready for school. We could not have been luckier to have found this daycare are very grateful for the dedication and care shown to our kids.

  I could not recommend Rosemary, the wonderful owner, enough! She is such a professional and truly cares for your child like they are her own. Her daily schedule is organized with learning goals, fun adventures and lots of love! She has high expectations for the kids and as a result, the children have an opportunity to really shine and be their best selves. Rosemary took care of my daughter for her youngest learning years and my daughter absolutely loved her and going to daycare to learn, play with friends and be with Rosemary, Rosa and other helpers. Rosemary also took care of my son off and on on PD days etc and she was absolutely wonderful with him. We wished we had found Rosemary during my son's younger years as she is an absolute gem. You are blessed if you have the privilege of your child being in Rosemary's care!

  From the moment we walked into Itty Bitty Scholars we felt something truly special. It's not just a daycare - it's a warm, welcoming home filled with love, laughter and genuine care. The atmosphere is calm, nurturing and full of the kind of kindness that only comes from people who truly love what they do. One of the things that immediately stood out to us was the strong family feel. Every child is treated as if they're one of their own and you can see the joy and comfort on the children's faces every single day. It's the perfect space for little ones to begin their journey - safe, loving and thoughtfully set up to encourage growth, exploration and confidence. The environment is cozy yet full of enriching activities, with just the right balance of structure and free play. Our daughter absolutely thrived here and we felt complete peace of mind knowing she was in such capable, gentle and genuinely caring hands. Twelve years later my daughter still talks fondly about her time at Itty Bitty Scholars and always wants to go back and see Ms. Rosemary.

  Rosemary is an exceptional caregiver and daycare provider. My son has been with Rosemary for over a year(since about 16 months old) and he always looks forward to going, running in the door and eager to join the group. I have peace of mind knowing he is in loving and caring hands. Rosemary goes above and beyond for the kids she cares for, and she is always open and communicative with the parents. It is apparent that she loves what she does. Rosemary is the epitome of what home daycare should be. It’s exciting that she is moving into a new space in 2026. We love you Roro!!

  I wish I could rate this daycare facility higher than 5 stars just so readers can understand how wonderfully exceptional and unique this place is. Rosemary (the Director) is lovely and she works so hard to maintain the highest of standards. Her staff works just as hard and go out of their way to accommodate every child’s needs. Their warm and equitable nature are complemented by their enthusiasm and willingness to get their hands dirty with the kids. All of the children love them; the only tears shed are those when parents are trying to get their kids to go home! My son, under Rosemary’s tutelage, not only learned the alphabet and how to count, but also manners, kindness and charity. This daycare has a solid curriculum that prepares the kids for kindergarten both academically and socially. Rosemary and her staff make you feel as part of their family and you easily make them a part of yours. Please be assured that the superlatives mentioned here have not been casually spent; I would relive my child’s preschool experiences at Itty Bitty Scholars in a heartbeat.
