Nursery Educational Le Pinceau - Samson — Daycare & Preschool in Laval, Quebec

What parents say

• Megane Hanan

  This daycare was an absolute nightmare for my nephew. From the very beginning, it was clear that the staff cared more about convenience and money than the well-being of the kids. There’s no warmth, no effort to create a positive environment, and definitely no respect for families. The children are basically left to fend for themselves with zero engaging activities. Outdoor time is neglected, there are no stimulating programs, and the atmosphere feels cold and unwelcoming. My nephew came home every day miserable, and it broke my heart to see how little this place seemed to care. When we finally decided to pull him out, the reaction from the director was dismissive and borderline hostile, as if losing a child’s enrollment meant nothing. No concern, no empathy, not even a basic acknowledgment of the issues we raised. Just indifference. This is not a safe or nurturing environment. If you value your child’s happiness, growth, and safety, keep them as far away from this daycare as possible.

  The teachers at my daughter’s daycare are incredibly caring, and the caregivers are very responsible and attentive to the children’s needs. They are so sweet with the kids and truly take care of them in the best way possible. I feel completely at ease knowing my child is in such loving and capable hands. Highly recommended!

• Mary Kahwajian

  ​The center is always clean, organized, and provides a safe and stimulating environment for the kids. Also, I really appreciate the excellent communication. Getting daily updates and photos gives us so much comfort throughout the day. ​Highly recommend Garderie Éducative Le Pinceau to any family looking for a loving and supportive place for their child. It's truly a 5-star experience.

  @Annabelle TS As a parent whose children have been attending this daycare for over six years, my experience has been completely different from what you described. The daycare regularly organizes parent meetings, and in all these years, I’ve never seen you attend any of them. If your child was truly enrolled here, you would have had the chance to meet the owners in person during these meetings — they are always present and available to speak with parents. That’s why I find your claims surprising and not consistent with the reality many of us experience. I’m also curious to know the name of the educator responsible for your child, because in my long experience here, the staff have always shown genuine care and treated the children as if they were their own. From my perspective, this daycare provides a safe and caring environment, and I felt it was important to share my experience so others can see a different side based on real, long-term involvement.
