Little Orchard Day Care — Daycare & Preschool in Whitby, Ontario

What parents say

• Tanya Bredin

  Enrolling your first born into daycare is never easy, and during these trying times the task is even more daunting. But the compassion and empathy of Maria and her team helped make the transition an easy one. They have gone above and beyond to ensure our child’s safety, while pivoting their procedures to help make us (parents) still feel informed and included in our child’s daily activities and progress. My daughter’s teachers (and even the teachers in the other room) are some of the most caring, kind and patient people I have ever met, always friendly and going out of their way to make each child feel special. They support and encourage diversity and inclusion, and provide a safe and supportive environment for growth and development. The staff at Little Orchard has quickly became part of our extended family, and we are so lucky to have found them!

  Our daughter adores her teachers and has so much fun at Little Orchard Day Care. The kind, smart and compassionate teachers give the children lots of attention and individualized care as needed, which means the world to me. They always have fun and different indoor and outdoor activities planned for the day and are great at keeping parents informed of what the kids enjoyed and how they spent the day. The meals are great too and have been a huge help at encouraging our daughter to try new foods and eat a more rounded diet. The bi-monthly music classes are a favourite too. So grateful for the wonderful work done by the teachers at Little Orchard!

  What a wonderful place. I had my first baby two years ago and I found it so difficult to think of leaving her with strangers. I looked at nine daycares before I came across Little Orchard Daycare. I can't even express what a difference in environment and staffing. First I had the great experience of meeting with Maria who was just so warm and welcoming. She took the time to talk to me one on one and answer all of my questions. Then came the introduction to the wonderful staff, who are beyond great expectations. My daughter is well taken care of and she has developed so many skills and vocabulary. I'm so glad I found this wonderful gem.

  Google review Little Orchard Daycare located in Brooklin Ontario, provides the BEST childcare available for toddlers and preschoolers. I would strongly recommend Little Orchard Daycare to my friends and neighbours who are looking for reliable and loving staff to teach and look after their children. Both of my children have attended Little Orchard Daycare and all of their teachers have been fantastic! The staff are all extremely nurturing, patient, caring and understanding with the individual needs of the children. Also, they do an excellent job of program planning activities that are meaningful and relevant to how children learn. The location itself is on a beautiful property that includes two separate yards and lots of open green space for the children to play and explore. Knowing that my children are in the capable hands of these wonderful teachers has been such a comfort for me and my family. I feel so fortunate to know that my little ones have been able to benefit from their program. Thanks to all the wonderful staff at Little Orchard Daycare for making it such an amazing place for our kids to learn and play.

  Our family loves Little Orchard! Our daughter began attending at 18 months old and since then runs in every morning thrilled to be there. The staff are so kind and patience, their communication is phenomenal, and we see how well they know our daughter. We couldn’t be happier with our experience there.
