I dropped my child off on the first day and when we came to get her, they didn't know where she was. They didn't have her on their 'list' despite having extensive communication. They ended up dropping her off in a different program in the back building (side entrance) where they didn't know her. It scared us out of our mind THEM not knowing where our kid was. This is by far the worst daycare. Also, side note, the few positive reviews on here are staff members that work there. They should probably change their names if they're going to be doing that. read more

Horrible Daycare! I have (2) two year old's that attended this place. If you don't want your children to be locked up like animals for months on end find another daycare! They don't take the kids out daily as required by law, they make excuse after excuse when its simple laziness. They don't watch the children attentively. My son comes home with numerus scratch/claw marks on his face. They don't do simply tasks like wiping their noses or anything. AVOID at all costs. read more

My children love being at this center. The teachers are very friendly and caring. The management has been running so much better since new supervisor is there. The facility is updated all the time. I strongly recommend this center. read more

Valley Farm Daycare - Preschools Near Me - Pickering, Ontario

My child never attended this daycare so I can't say anything about their care but I contacted them about a placement for my daughter. I did a virtual tour and they told me I could hold a spot for her by filling out a form and giving a $200 deposit. I emailed the form back to them promptly with all my daughters personal information, her health card number, my address, all my emergency contacts and asked what the best way to get the deposit to them was. I never heard back from them. It's been a month so needless to say even if they did eventually get back to me, this would not be a place I'd be comfortable sending my child. I sent a few emails and asked if there was an issue to simply let me know and I would look for alternative care. Still nothing in response. It doesn't take much to reply to an email. Unprofessional, to say the least. read more

My 6-year-old has been attending this daycare since she was a year old. She absolutely loves it! In fact, I moved heaven and earth to change her school so that she could continue on at Valley Farm once she stared kindergarten. The staff are so loving. Even the teachers who aren't hers know my daughter's name and speak to her with such warmth. I feel she is so well cared-for there. I also feel that the food is of good quality, especially since they are feeding so many children at once. Parking can be a bit tricky sometimes, but we always seem to manage it. It's nice to know that the people caring for my little girl really love her. read more

The staff themselves are amazing. They're caring, and attentive to the children. However, I would not recommend this daycare to any parent though. Due to how the administration staff plays favourites. Leaping younger children to higher levels even though the children are at the same development level. Pros: - Caring staff. - Lunch is provided (albeit non-organic) Cons: - More expensive then Montessori schools around the area. (This is a daycare) - Administration staff plays favourites with families - This is extremely close to construction site. Use at your own risk. You may be left feeling that you are treated unfairly. read more

Upon entry you can already notice the smell. Smells like the place hasn't been cleaned for years. Smells like a combination of kids' pee, sweat and dirt. Inside, the area and the things are not neat. Looks dirty, unhygienic and messy. It is normal that a place with kids will look like a ransacked place but this place really doesn't come looking and smelling nice and clean for kids. read more

The supervisor is very unapproachable. She is unfriendly to staff in front of parents and does not even show interest in the children at the centre. She is very rarely at the centre. Every time I call she is never available. I do not recommend this centre to any parent that wants quality care for their child read more

This is a great daycare! My daughter is always excited to see her teachers, and always enjoys the crafts and activities they have planned for the day. The supervisor is really sweet, very approachable, extremely understanding, and always makes herself available to parents. read more

Valley Farm is an amazing daycare ! My 14 month old daughter has been attending this Centre for 2 months and we already feel like apart of their daycare family!
