I had to find a day camp for my daughter for the week and it was difficult as it was very last…read moreminute so I called them asking if they had room and they said they would squeeze her in. I was thankful because I work full time and she needed to be taken care of somewhere so I followed their instructions and filled out the registration to e-mail but in the registration, it said that if someone has special needs (autism), that they absolutely need a shadow. My daughter is very high functioning and did not have a shadow for the previous 7 weeks at another day camp but I called them back, told them that she did not have a shadow and that she could not attend their camp. The person on the phone insisted that it was okay and that she could come anyhow. In the registration application, I indicated that she does wander and just to keep an eye on her. Saint-Raymond's daycamp did not have a problem with her and just kept an eye on her. They took the registration and were like great, come in Monday etc. Monday, her father picks her up and the daycamp kid complains that she is wandering. Yes, this was mentioned on the phone before applying and on the application. Her father said that he would speak to her and they go home. Tuesday, we get a call at around noon saying that she can no longer stay at the camp because she is wandering around, IN THE GYM. When I told them that it was them that insisted that she go regardless, she apologized but it put me in a bad predicament. When I picked her up, Anna was really happy to see me, squealed and came running to me but I look at the other girl daycamp educator kid and she is cringing, holding her ears cause Anna squealed too loud. Then the guy tells me that I probably spoke to someone different on the phone and they gave conflicting information. What the hell? My daughter is telling me that this is her new day camp and that she likes it, but I had to drag her out. It was terrible. They did not even give her a chance. All they had to do was keep an eye on her. They had no patience for her and I was going to find another day camp and they INSISTED that she did not need a shadow even though the application clearly states that every kid with special needs has to have a shadow. That was complete misrepresentation, it put me in a terrible position and no one even wanted to look me in the eyes. They gave me my cheque back and ignored me. Except the blonde teenage guy and the girl teenager who cringed when Anna squealed my name and came running to me but those were 2 second conversations and the girl just told me where here bag was. Worst place ever.

Les Services des Génies was recommended to me by a friend who had worked there when she was a…read moreuniversity student. I used their services for a year and a half for homework help for my 9-year-old son who had great difficulties in school. The tutor went to pick him up at school and spent three hours with him at the library and always went at my son's pace. The tutor was always professional and helpful. My son was later diagnosed with severe dyslexia, so I discontinued their services for something more suitable, but if it had not been the case I would still be using their services. I highly recommend (They also offer other services, household help, children's party.... which I haven't used yet).

I love Kids and Co Ste.Cathrine Street. My 3.5year old and 2year old have been here for almost a…read moreyear. Top rate daycare (of albeit top price rates). This is an all too rare example of a good corporate run franchise filling the Montreal void of businesses that care about customer service. Indeed Montrealers have been weaned off the idea of customer satisfaction and into the dogma of corporate skepticism (look how long they kept Starbucks at bay), but Kids and Co. has clearly benefited from corporate-HQ delegated programing and management of employee turnover. The teachers are extremely energetic and thoughtful of toddler needs and education. The ratio of kid/teacher is low! I feel this keeps employees fresh and motivated. Their general service is accommodating, receiving the kids at hours that suit our family's schedule (this is not a general philosophy of subsidized daycares that we have tried out). Complimentary service a few evenings and weekends per year is commendable. Food is fresh and regulated by nationally (presumably that assures quality/nutritional control). Educational programing is obviously more than what is provided by subsidized daycare i.e. Mini-Masters Art program, Alphabet lessons, French lessons, yoga sessions. I'm sure I've forgotten to mention many other great attributes.

I've been a member of the OIIQ since 2011. Overall I'm a pretty satisfied member…read more I used to feel that we pay too much for our licenses. But in speaking with other nurses in other privinces who may pay less yearly, they don't seem to have the reduced pricing we pay for training (also in other provinces nurses are expected to pay for their own trainings whereas here in Québec it's our employers who foot that bill). Also, in speaking with my interdisciplinary colleagues, we also get the best bang for our buck in that respect too. My social work and psychoeducator colleagues pay way more than us nurses annually for their permits and don't have any perks included. The quality of the trainings offered by the OIIQ are impressive. I have only taken 2 so far (ADD/ADHD and Into to MI), but both times I left with a renewed hope for my profession and a genuine sense of having improved my practice (versus having wasted 7hours of my life...which is often the case with internal trainings, I find). I do highly appreciate the quarterly magazine subscription included with our membership too, though lately I've been wishing they would stop with the actual magazine and just send us a link via email for an electronic version. They're really beautiful and super useful, but I don't need a hardcopy I need a permanent resource I can click when needed. They just end up in recycling eventually because they're my first targets when I get a decluttering itch ... Every little gesture helps save the planet right? Go electronic! The reason for the minus 1 star is while I do applaud the OIIQ for being pro-Québec to the umpteenth degree, the 100% refusal to have any OIIQ-related information whatsoever (talking ZERO) available to translate to english is downright borderline hostile. Which to me, sends a pretty mixed message. It makes it very difficult for nurses from the states, for example, or the rest of Canada etc.. to come practice in Québec. It personally doesn't affect me in the slightest (totally proficient in french), but I feel we all lose out when we put up walls instead of bridges. (And I'm not saying translate everything even, but at least the part about how to renew your license/ transfer your license to Québec (ummm nursing shortage much?! Helloooooo..) and having the magazine available as an option in english too would be handy). So yes, overall satisfied member, but really would appreciate a bit of leniency with the language laws. Keep it up with fantastic quality trainings! (which by the way are available to non-members too at an increased price (~30$ more))
