My son absolutely loves the Royal York Road Nursery School. I was worried when we first joined because he wasn't exposed to social programming during the pandemic but the teachers made the transition very easy. He is excited to go to 'school' each day to play with his friends and participate in the super fun activities. Arts and crafts, gym day, yoga and music with Mr. B are just a few examples of the activities the teachers plan for the kids. I highly recommend this program.

Amazing! My daughter is always excited to go to nursery school! This is her last year, but my youngest will be attending next year and she is so excited! They taught our daughter so much and she has met so many nice friends. The teachers are all fabulous and I would highly recommend sending your children here!

Having just moved back to Toronto after living abroad, we were looking for a nursery school for our youngest pretty late and were thrilled to find RYRNS. I still can't believe they had a spot available, because this has been an absolutely outstanding experience for our daughter. The staff are so caring and wonderful, and they go above and beyond. They introduce a different theme each week complete with new toys and activities, so there is always something engaging happening. They are consummate professionals, but also welcoming and warm. You really get the sense that they love their jobs and our kids. I would recommend this nursery school to anyone.

I am thrilled to write this review about the fabulous nursery school that my daughter adores! From the moment she started attending this school, she has been so happy and excited to go to class every school day. Firstly, the staff at this nursery school are absolutely fantastic. They are warm, welcoming, and genuinely care about each and every child in their care. They always take the time to greet my daughter and make her feel comfortable and at ease. Secondly, the facilities at this nursery school are top-notch. The classrooms are bright and cheerful with plenty of toys, games, and learning materials. Most importantly, my daughter is thriving at this nursery school. She has made lots of new friends, is learning so much, and is always full of stories about her day when I pick her up. I am so grateful to have found such an amazing school for my daughter to attend. In conclusion, I cannot recommend this nursery school highly enough. The staff are wonderful, the facilities are excellent, and most importantly, my daughter absolutely adores it there!

We’ve had a wonderful experience at Royal York Road Nursery School! The staff is so lovely, I have always felt that my child is in excellent hands. Their programming is fun and my son always gets picked up with a huge smile on his face. Though my son has had a hard time transitioning to nursery school at times, his teachers have been amazing at making him comfortable and making sure he feels at home. Highly recommend the half day for the 2 year olds and the full day program for the 3 year olds!
