I’m so happy that I chose this daycare for my son. The calm and welcoming environment, along with Ellie’s kindness and the caring staff, made it so much easier for me to leave my son with peace of mind. The daycare is always clean and well organized. My son comes home every day happy and excited, often bringing beautiful arts and crafts that he made. It’s clear that the children are engaged in fun and creative activities. One thing I really appreciate is that Ellie regularly sends me photos and videos of my son throughout the day. It gives me so much peace of mind and lets me see how happy and comfortable he is. Ellie truly cares about every child and always makes sure they are safe, happy, and well looked after. I’m very grateful for all the love, patience, and care they give, and I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a warm and nurturing place for their child.

My daughter had never been away from me before starting daycare, so I was very careful when choosing the right place for her. Thanks to the patience and kindness of the manager and staff, she adjusted beautifully and now happily goes to daycare every day. My daughter has been attending this daycare for two months, and we are very happy with our experience. The manager is a wonderful, patient, and caring lady who truly loves what she does. She teaches the children through play and makes every activity fun and educational. She is also very responsible and creates a warm and positive environment for the kids. I’m really grateful for all her effort and highly recommend this daycare to other parents.

We’ve had a really good experience with this daycare. Ellie, the manager, is kind, caring, and easy to talk to. She creates a warm and comfortable environment for both kids and parents. My daughter is 3 years old and she really enjoys being there—she especially likes Ellie, which gives me a lot of peace of mind. It’s clear that Ellie genuinely cares about the kids and puts in the effort to make sure they feel safe and happy. I’d definitely recommend this daycare.

We had such a wonderful experience at Growville Early Child Care. My son started there when he was just 2.5 years old, and now he just turned 3 last month .I can truly say how amazing this place has been for him and for us as a family. From the very beginning, the staff were incredibly supportive, patient, and caring. Starting daycare can be a big transition for a young child, but they made him feel safe, comfortable, and welcomed every single day. I’ve seen so much growth in his confidence, social skills, and independence since joining. The educators genuinely care about the children and create a nurturing, positive environment where kids can learn and thrive. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing my son is in such good hands. I’m truly grateful for everything they’ve done to support my son’s development. Growville is an amazing place, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a caring and supportive daycare.

Such a lovely daycare environment. The location is great, and it’s clean and spacious, which made it a wonderful choice for our child who had never been to daycare before. Miss Ellie is incredibly kind and nurturing, and it shows in how comfortable our child feels overall. Of course, some days are harder than others, but the teachers are very approachable and supportive, which makes communication easy and reassuring.I would definitely recommend this daycare to parents or prospective parents looking in North Vancouver or near downtown
