Our family is SO thankful for the 2 years our son spent at Parkdale - during the COVID-19 pandemic, nonetheless! Ms. Chalcea is a fearless, patient, and compassionate leader, and her staff are a reflection of her incredible leadership. The staff really do care about the children, you can see that at the centre in so many different ways, and it is evident that they want to see each child succeed and HAVE FUN. The staff always greet you in the morning with smiles on their faces, and the activities that are planned each week are always creative and age appropriate. Honestly, it's unlike any other

wonderful, personable, professional, creative, attentive, warm and welcoming. My anxious boy felt comfortable very quickly, a huge relief for us. They are covid safe, clean, safe, fun, inventive, creative and simply fabulous. My son is is not an arts & crafts child but he home with artwork he was so proud of. What else can I say? It's great.

Parkdale is a great place where your children learn through art, play and experiments. Teachers are awesome and treat your children like their own family.
All the educators work closely planning and prepping for activities that children can enjoy and learn from that experience.

It was a great decision I made to entrust my daughter in this centre because the teachers are all very responsible and caring. My daughter really love going to daycare where she developed her communication skills and social abilities and now she's in kindergarten she misses everyone in Parkdale.

If I could give 10 stars I would! After going through a number of private daycares we were nervous to start over yet again but Parkdale was 1000% the right decision. Our daughter attended this centre from the time she was 2.5 to 4.5 and we cannot say enough good things about the people here. Staff became more like family and my daughter absolutely loved her time here. The staff are not only extremely caring but so creative when it comes to activities and teaching the children. During the quarantine they did everything they could to keep in touch with the children which was so nice when the kids
