The Imagination Tree — Daycare & Preschool in Calgary, Alberta

What parents say

• Jo Gaudette

  I can’t say enough good things about Imagination Tree! The staff are absolutely fantastic and the entire team works so so hard to keep our kids happy, well fed and comfortable. The communication from the team is also top notch. It’s so hard leaving my kids during the day but it makes it so much easier when I know I’m leaving them with what feels like a second family

  I can't possibly put into words how amazing this daycare is. Our child has attended for almsot a year now, and has been flourishing. Every day he comes home with a new phrase or a new song, he loves the food provided, and every time we we check in on him through the camera system you can see all the love, patience, appreciation and support the staff puts into the kids. We seriously cannot thank this daycare enough. I feel so confident in the care of the staff while leaving my child here during the day, thank you IT staff ❤️

  The Imagination Tree Daycare is truly exceptional—beyond what we could have ever imagined! The love and care they provide for our little one are simply incredible. The rooms are immaculate, reminiscent of a 5-star hotel. The vibrant patterns and paintings on the walls create a magical atmosphere, almost like being in Disneyland. The selection of books and toys is extensive, far beyond what you’d expect to find in a daycare. The homemade food prepared by Patricia, who is like a super caring, energetic mom to all the kids and parents, is fantastic. Our daughter's teacher, Zara, goes above and beyond in her role. Her love for the children is comparable to the love a mother has for her own kids. Zara ensures that the long days fly by for the kids who miss their parents, making them feel warm and cozy. Des is always there, making sure everything runs smoothly with her passionate and warm demeanor. Bailey and the rest of the staff are also incredibly friendly. We want to extend a big thank you to Sarah and her team for making this daycare a dreamland for our daughter.

  It’s hard to put into words just how unbelievably exceptional Imagination Tree is….. This is not just a childcare centre, it is a family. I feel incredibly lucky to have found such a magical place for my child to learn and grow. Our children are truly loved, accepted, appreciated and celebrated for the unique individuals they are. Sarah and her staff are outstanding professionals who are always respectful, calm, fair, and patient beyond belief. Sarah has poured her heart and soul into this centre and it is clearly her passion. The centre has an open door policy for parents creating a true sense of transparency. The home cooked, made from scratch meals are incredible and my son eats like a king. It warms my heart to walk in and smell freshly baked muffins, banana bread, spaghetti, roast chicken, etc. The kitchen at IT is a special place where children having a hard day and in need of some extra one on one time are welcomed in for a special snack, some extra attention and a calm, quiet moment to work through their feelings until they’re ready to join their class again. The classroom staff clearly love their jobs and love our children. I don’t know how they are so patient. They deserve medals in that toddler room! Ms. Des is an incredible human and I am unbelievably thankful to have her in my life. I have learned so much about my own son’s unique personality from her and I am eternally grateful for the wisdom and insight she has provided. Thank you imagination Tree….. you are truly exceptional. ❤️

  We are so happy with the care our daughter is receiving at Imagination Tree! The cleanliness of the space is great, the food is excellent, and I love the play-focused approach (in addition to a great outdoor space). Our daughter is so happy going here and the care the staff provide is truly incredible. I am amazed at the energy they bring everyday and the work they put into making sure the kids are having fun, learning, napping, eating well, etc. We feel fortunate to have found this wonderful facility!
