Kinder College Early Learning Centre

My son has been going here since he was like 7 months old. He’s now almost 3 and we are only leaving because we are moving away from Canada. This school has taken amazing care of my son and he’s learned so much! I can’t say enough good things about the teachers and Directors here and I would definitely recommend trusting them with your children.

Enrolling my child at Kinder College has been an incredibly rewarding journey, especially as a first-time parent. The teachers there are truly exceptional; they have a wonderful rapport with my baby, evident from his excited smiles and eager arms reaching out each morning at drop-off. The range of stimulating activities they provide throughout the day is impressive, and I’ve noticed remarkable progress in my baby’s behavior and development in just a short period. He’s now more adventurous with food, his appetite has grown, he smiles more frequently, and his play is increasingly varied and creative.

What I particularly appreciate is the daycare’s excellent communication. They not only have live cameras but also regularly update us with photos, ensuring we’re connected to our child’s day-to-day experiences. Additionally, their attention to detail in caring for my baby’s belongings is commendable.

In summary, Kinder College offers an outstanding daycare experience, combining a nurturing environment with professional and loving care. I highly recommend it to any parent seeking a place where their child can flourish.

I am compelled to share my deeply concerning experience at Kinder College. The safety and well-being of our children should always be the top priority, but unfortunately, this establishment falls far short of meeting even the most basic standards.

During my child's time there, we encountered alarming issues:

Electrical Hazards: There was a dangerous situation with an exposed electrical cable in one of the classrooms. Shockingly, it took several days for this serious issue to be addressed.

Hazardous Materials: On multiple occasions, I discovered syringes on the floor at the back entrance. Shockingly, when reported, the center chose to keep this information from other parents, fearing reputational damage.

Hygiene Neglect: Basic hygienic standards were consistently ignored. Children with severe runny noses were neglected, and staff failed to attend to their basic needs.

Health Risks: I personally witnessed a visibly unwell staff member continue to serve food to the children, potentially exposing them to illness.

Incident Reporting: Shockingly, there was a complete lack of incident reporting. Numerous children suffered injuries due to a lack of adequate supervision, yet these incidents were not properly documented.

Unstable Staffing: The constant turnover of both management and teaching staff is a clear indicator of underlying problems within the organization. This instability has a detrimental impact on the quality of care provided.

In the interest of the safety and well-being of all children, I strongly advise against enrolling them in this facility.

For the safety of our little ones, please reconsider choosing Kinder College

Our daughter started at KCELC when she was 18 months old during the height of the pandemoc. All staff made the transition smooth and made us feel so comfortable. She started in the toddler room and is now in the preschool room and all of her teachers have been amazing. They treat all the children like they are their own. I love that we get daily updates of the kids in class and play through pictures and videos throughout the day. I also love they have a chef on site who exposes the kids to different kinds of foods. The activities they have for the kids are engaging and I have seen such great strides and growth in our daughter. She has made and built amazing friendships, and it will make me sad when it will be time for her to leave.

Great spot and close to my office! Our kid loves going here and seeing the teachers. Don’t believe the bad cyber attach reviews that all got posted at the same period.

My daughter who is just over a year lights up when she enters the daycare. The staff are so warm and welcoming and I can see the kindness they show her is genuine and always there. I never feel like I have to worry as they communicate well throughout the day and always provide end of day feedback. Couldn’t ask for a better team!

Our son has had a great experience in the Preschool room at Kinder College. He is excited to arrive in the mornings and loves telling us about all the fun activities he did during his day there. The staff are all really friendly and have helped our son to grow in confidence during his time there. Would definitely recommend Kinder College to anyone looking for a daycare in downtown

Our daughter has had a great time here in both the infant room and in the toddler room. I always get the sense that she is forming healthy attachments to her teachers and peers. The school has helped us overcome challenges like getting our baby to sleep in her crib during the day. The teachers truly love taking care of our kid and we are always safe and secure that she will be well fed, changed, and have a great educational time with her little friends.

We love Kinder College! It is an incredible daycare that takes good care of our children. My son started in 2019 and just graduated in the summer and now my daughter goes there too. The women who run the center are kind, empathetic, and compassionate. They make you feel safe leaving your children in their care. There is an amazing rooftop playground and an in house kitchen. My son could count to 20, write his name, and identify the letters of the alphabet by the time he left at age 3. He was so ready for junior kindergarten. So not just a place to play but also so much learning takes place here. Highly recommended.

We love Kinder College. My son joined at 1 year and adjusted very fast. He loves his teachers, eats and sleeps well and is learning so much every day. The staff is incredibly friendly and I am happy we have found a beautiful community of people to share the care for our son with.

Great daycare for our daughter, very nice teachers, great communication, good food! Our daughter learned a lot of new things at this daycare! No issues at all.

At first we thought our kids were having trouble adjusting. They were always crying when we dropped them off and groggy when we picked them up. But each time we spoke to Joseph Ko he redirected blame onto us and our children. On one occasion we questioned if our kids were given sleeping pills because they were unusually groggy. The camera didnt help. It has a tiny angle view with numerous blind spots. These were issues that weren't resolved. It was clear to us after communicating with Joseph Ko that his primary focus is money not quality child care, which resulted in our unhappy family leaving this place.

We gave the center our cell number for our daughter. She was told no when she wanted to call home. She was told to stop crying. We addressed the matter with the owner and he was arguing with us instead of listening and problem solving. Best decision was leaving.

My son has been attending Kinder College for one year and he has been the happiest kid. When I drop him off to when I pick him up, he is a very happy child and I am fortunate to have the care of the teachers and staff at Kinder College.

Unfortunately, we didn’t have a good experience at this daycare and left approximately 3 months later. Very shortly after we joined, the educators start leaving and were replaced with different new staff members. This is when my toddler start feeling uncomfortable. Parents usually were not informed about the changes in the room. Some educators seemed not qualified and had poor communication skills with the parents. No consistency with the daily activities, sometimes toddlers were just playing all day. Very poor camera view. Just before we were leaving, seemed like things were getting better with the new educators, but still, my toddler was crying every morning. I could sense he is not enjoying there much, except for their playground.

Il never have enough words to describe how good this place has been for my daughter. Coming from India where the concept of daycares is fairly new I was extremely concerned to put my daughter away from me for 6-8hrs a day and always felt guilty when she started going to Kinder. But the teachers, supervisor (Maryam) and Kana (director) are all so supportive, caring and amazing that this daycare became a second home for my daughter. She would look forward to going to Kinder every single day. She went to Kinder right from infant to preschool room and at every stage she had an amazing experience. She bonded well with all the teachers, loved the food and simply loved her time there. All teachers at this center are exceptional and super caring. They always welcome you and the kids with a big smile every morning and take very good care of them during the day. Every kid here has their own favorite teacher which tells you how passionate they are about their work and these kids. All the teachers remain super vigilant of all the instructions given to them and take care that all your requests are always met. I am so glad that my daughter's initial years were spent at Kinder as we wouldn't have been able to find a better place than this one!

I had the best experience at kinder college with my daughter. I always felt heard and they easily won our trust. My daughter loves her teachers and she has learned and developed so much since she started.
Maryam, the director, is just the sweetest!
Thank you so much!

Our experience with Kinder College has been fantastic from the beginning. Our daughter joined the infant room when she was 15 months and progressed through the toddler and preschool rooms. All the teachers, support staff and management have been incredibly caring, warm and supportive. The classes are well structured with a wide range of activities and there is a great outdoor space for the kids to use. Our daughter has thrived in this environment and always looks forward to going to daycare. Throughout the pandemic, we felt the Centre took every precaution to keep the children and staff safe and always felt secure leaving our daughter in their hands. We highly recommend Kinder College Early Learning Center.

My daughter really liked going to kinder college. She joined in toddler classroom and then graduated in preschool. The staff are very enthusiastic and super professional. The space is clean and they do lots of interesting and educational stuff with the kids. They have onsite kitchen which is a plus. My kid definitely going to miss kinder college and amazing friends she made at the center

Our daughter started when she turned 1 in the middle of the pandemic. And how she's grown under the loving care of her teachers! She's now turning 3 and loves going to school with all her friends and teachers. We have felt always safe knowing she's there. The teachers took COVID precautions pretty well and we were very happy with our experience there.

Our daughter enjoyed her time here. Staff were very kind and treated her very well - it was a good experience overall for our whole family and a good option if you live downtown Toronto.

We had an incredible experience with Kinder College’ during the pandemic and highly recommend their program. We have seen our little truly blossom into an independent little lady thanks in part to their wonderful program and incredible and warm staff.

My son has been with Kinder since he was 13 Months old. He started in the infant class and transitioned to toddler. He developed strong bonds with his teachers and all of the teachers are extremely loving and caring for him. He learned his first step, his first sentence and a lot more in Kinder. We really enjoyed our experience there and it is very sad for us to have to say good bye with all the staffs in Kinder.

My son attended Kinder College when he was one year old. We were expected a difficult time when he first started. The teachers were super nice to comfort him, hold him and pat him to help with the transition. Only after 2 days, he was getting used to the new environment and made a lot of friends. Now he is almost 3 and he enjoys every single day in the DayCare. Every single teacher knows him in person by greeting him in the morning to make him feel at home. The preschool program is also very organized with lots of activities and also exercises to help his transit to the junior kinder garden. We are super happy to see his progression and thanks to all the teachers! They really care about each kid's growth and feeling. A great place to put your kid in and I will highly recommend it to anyone!

Our daughter started at Kinder College at 12 months. She loved daycare from the very start and is always happy to see the staff at drop off. The staff here are wonderful and very communicative. I enjoy the short videos they send us every day!

All service businesses are not created equal. You can write reviews of restaurants but you sit there for 2 hours and leave, daycares are a different matter. You experience their support on a daily basis over many months. You entrust them with your most precious loved ones, and if you are lucky, you give your kid/s to a place like Kinder.

We experienced Kinder's care for over a year for our daughter, this being our first experience of daycares we were nervous. Kana and her extremely capable & loving team made her many transitions much easier than they could have been. The teachers personalize their attention and every teacher knows her and she knows every teacher. The live camera feed also shows Kinder's confidence in the care they are providing.

Anyone who' is around the area and considering a daycare for their kid, we cannot recommend Kinder highly enough.

We had an incredible experience at Kinder College with our son. We came to Toronto in 2019 and since then my son attending Kinder College and now that we are going back home we will miss this amazing Daycare. He began in the toddler program and moved to the preschooler program, and all of the teachers were great. I would highly recommend Kinder College since it is excellent in everything (Teachers, administration, food and all the other things).

I highly recommend Kinder College, my son started in the infant room and is now in the toddler room, he is having a great time! The teachers and the management staff genuinely care about the kids and they have been doing a great job keeping everyone safe during the pandemic. We had an awesome experience at this learning center.

We have had such a great experience with Kinder but are moving out of the city and sad to be leaving the program. Our son started in the infant room and is currently in the toddler room. He LOVES going to daycare everyday and has learned so much already.

Our LO was very inconsistent with naps and it was a big concern of ours. The staff have been so patient and persistent, and we can finally say we have a toddler who naps!

As parents we love the communication: daily pictures and reports, weekly indoor and outdoor curriculum and zoom meetings.

Our next daycare has big shoes to fill.

What can I say that Kinder College made us extremely secure in our son's adaptation during the pandemic, the Child Center provided access to cameras, daily reports, Taplodes application with photos that record moments and daily activities, as well as weekly meetings to report the learning and development of our child. I leave here my thanks to the Pre-School team, especially to Professor Amélia, who has always been so friendly, patient, caring and concerned to promote the development and growth of my 3-year-old son, preparing him in the best way for Kindergarten.

Our daughter enrolled there as a infant and left there as a blooming toddler. Great staff, location and communication through their app of Tadpoles. Thank you to the wonderful teachers.

Kinder College is an absolutely wonderful early learning centre and my family is very fortunate to have both our sons enrolled. My eldest son started Kinder College at 9 months old and is now about to go to kindergarten. It has been a truly amazing journey. The teachers and the rest of the staff are outstanding. They have created a warm, caring, positive environment where my boys absolutely thrive and I am always amazed with how much they learn as well as their emotional development. The communication with the teachers is also fantastic. The staff always goes above and beyond. A big heartfelt thank you to everyone at Kinder College, you have been amazing.

Our child thrived and enjoyed her experiences at Kinder College. It is really impressive how well organized and attentive they are to personalize the lessons for each child. Our child attended the Toddler and Pre-school classes and really blossomed. We were blessed to attended the daycare and recommended it to friend who now have their children attending. Many thanks to the staff for their care and professionalism during the pandemic.

My daughter attended toddler program at Kinder College and I highly recommend this centre. The staff was very professional, clean and caring. Having camera in the room is a big plus to sneak peek on the little one every once in a while. The rooms seemed spacious and clean. Weekly parents meeting, program schedule and daily reports definitely gave us a feeling that our little one is in good care.

We enrolled our son at Kinder College when he was 6 month old and were very nervous, especially with the pandemic. It's been a pleasure to see him adapt very quickly to the daycare, with the amazing help of his teachers. We've always felt like our son was very loved and exeptionally well taken care of, and the communication with the teachers was outstanding. Definitely recommend!

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with sending our son to Kinder College. The staff took incredible care of him and created an outstanding learning environment that has helped him grow in more ways than one. Every employee we interacted with was very professional and kind, putting parents at ease with every transition.

Our son just finished over three years at Kinder College. They've done a great job caring for and bringing him along in his development both cognitive and emotional. We're very happy and couldn't ask for much more, particularly during this challenging past 12-15 months. Special thanks to all his teachers and the support staff but especially Amelia who's been an instrumental figure in his life so far.

We were pretty nervous new parents when we enrolled our 4 month old baby at Kinder College. He was the youngest baby in his class during that time and the teachers took amazing care. They followed our feeding notes and nap schedule. Introduced solids at the right time. Our baby loves going to the day care and did not require any transition period to get adjusted. The management is also wonderful to interact with. Thanks Victoria, Kushdeep and Chandan, for taking good care for our newborn!

My child has attending Kinder College for 3.5 years. I have always felt confident that he is safe and loved there. The teachers are wonderful; they are thoughtful, attentive, caring, and provide rich learning opportunities. There has always been good communication and response to administrative needs. I know my child is well-prepared to JK and that he will miss his teachers, and I think that is the greatest value I have received from KC.

The School is very well maintained and has professional staff. The Administration team is having good knowledge about the programs. We were happy and satisfied with the services and support from everyone at the school.

I highly recommend Kinder College. This was the very first school my 20 month old attended. The staff made him feel welcomed, loved and happy. He transitioned very quickly and loved going to school. Meals are balanced and of good quality. There is a camera in the classroom if parents want to check in. They also send multiple pics to the parents during the day and provide a detailed daily report at the end of the day.

Really happy with the care our daughter received at Kinder College - she started when she was 3 months old and they were very caring and attentive. Seems to be a well run day care centre and staff were extremely pleasant. The kids always seemed happy too!

Our son has been at Kinder College from 12 months to almost 4 years old. In every room, Infant/Toddler/Preschool, he was met and supported by teachers who were kind, patient, loving and responsible. The teachers across all the rooms our son was in were invested in tracking and encouraging his learning and growth. The administration staff is equally supportive and quick to respond to inquiries. They managed the covid pandemic very well and took great precautions to ensure everyone could return safely. It was an overwhelmingly positive experience. As our son is moving on to Kindergarten, we will all be sad to be leaving this wonderful institution.

We have nothing but positive experiences with Kindercollege. Being our son's first daycare, we were quite nervous about how he would settle in, especially in the COVID times as we were unable to physically accompany him during the transition.

He ended up adapting very quickly, no doubt due to all the teachers' care and we as parents were also very reassured with plenty of photo updates provided during the day. You can also log in to their security camera during the day (we were very nervous!). We were also very impressed with how their daycare has adapted to COVID and all the procedures they have put in place. We are sad to have to move our son away (as we are moving) and would not hesitate to recommend Kindercollege.

My daughter attended Kinder College from infant to preschool. Kinder College was a part of my daughter's daily life, and she was excited to talk about her toddler and preschool classes. The educators and staff are wonderful, and communicate with you on a daily basis. They send daily reports and pictures, and you're able to monitor your child from the password protected camera feed. I'm glad we chose Kinder College to be a part of my daughter's education, and I'm very thankful for all that they've done.

I had my son at Kinder from 1.5 - 4 years old. All of the teachers / care givers were patient, kind and great with the kids. The facility itself is well kept with large pre-school rooms and a great roof patio for the kids to play safely all year round. The COVID protocols in place have worked wonderfully at keeping the kids safe. My little guy was happy to be back with his friends and will miss everyone at Kinder!

My daughter has attended Kinder College for almost 4 years, since she was 6 months old. I've always have felt that the staff and teachers have my daughter's best interests in mind. The teachers are loving and supportive. They have helped my child with her cognitive, emotional, and social growth.

We will be moving on to Junior Kindergarten this month and will be sad to say good-bye.

Our daughter started at Kinder College at 12 months old. From the start, the care, safety, curriculum and environment fostered her social, cognitive and language development. Over the past 3 years, the care and support that she's received from her teachers in the Infant, Toddler and Preschool rooms has been outstanding. The curriculum has sparked curiosity and creativity, and has honed her social and problem-solving skills. Kinder College creates and ensures a safe, stimulating and inclusive care and learning environment.
We are so thankful for her time at Kinder. Thanks to the wonderful teachers and stellar learning environment, she has the perfect foundation to begin kindergarten.

I would caution parents considering this daycare; when you're not obviously there to give them money, they are very rude and lack attention to detail.

We visited the area to observe the environment around the daycare, as it's imperative for us to understand the nature and hours of immediate surrounding businesses in an area filled with theaters, bars/clubs, shelters, businesses and plenty of thoroughfare.

While reading the covid screening guidelines posted on the door for the business next door, my service dog waited infront of Kinder's door. A staff member came out from Kinder to literally "shoo" my service dog away, and said my service dog couldn't be there, outside of Kinder's door, in case she pees because it's a daycare. While I understand and appreciate a hygienic environment for the children attending daycare, it was awful being treated that way as an adult, and I would not want my child to pick up that "teacher's" attitude and lack of empathy. Most importantly, if a childcare worker is not able to see a dog with a visible service vest, what other blatant details would she miss throughout the day while caring for multiple children?

We found Kinder College when we were planning to move to Canada. As a newcomer family, we cannot say enough good things about the Kinder College Team. They are endlessly patient and responsible. We could register our son when we were overseas, Kana answered our questions and conducted us through this process wonderfully. When we arrived here, the Preschool team was amazing. They were careful and responsive, supporting our son’s adaptation, development, and communication in a very different language to him (English). Life for newcomers is challenging and parents have their own concerns regarding their kids, but, definitely, the Kinder College Team helped us to make it as painless as possible. We highly recommend them.

Our child went there from age 1 to 4 and she loved it there! They really care about the children as a whole. We will miss the care they have provided to our child. They have all sorts of educational and fun activities for the children and address each child's individual learning needs. Management is also very accomodating to work schedule needs, especially since we are shift workers.

Parents are always nervous and worried about good childcare, especially when you are moving from one country to another. Kinder College put our minds at ease and provided a seamless enrolment process while we were overseas.
Kinder College has been a home away from home for our child. The teachers and caregivers are excellent. We have seen our child flourish and shine over the past few months. I highly recommend this daycare!

My daughter has been in this daycare for almost half a year now, and we're only leaving it because we're moving.
Kinder college is great. My daughter's teachers, Karen, Desit, and Tayo, have been nothing but caring and awesome. Kana, the manager was always helpful and accomodating, even when we had to change our moving date, or with our dietary restrictions, etc.

My daughter was enrolled at Kinder College at 26 months and I cannot be thankful enough for all the support and reassurance i received from the staff and teachers. She was diagnosed with Autism a few months later whilst she was in Toddler class and the teachers have been amazing in supporting her development. We have since relocated back home to UK but I am so grateful for all the support, patience and care everyone at Kinder College provided. Thank you

The team at Kinder College is attentive, kind and adapts to your child’s needs. They offer varied menus with lots of vegetarian dishes (that my kids actually eat), easy stroller drop off and pick up, despite the stairs.
Tons of crafts, circle times & singing in the infant room; alphabet and counting awareness in toddler class and lots experiments in pre-school (STEM based). My son could recognize and arrange all letters alphabetically by 2.5. I also love that Mandarin, French and Korean were introduced (6 months each). Educators and support staff create a caring environment and foster a positive learning setting. Over time, we have had our two kids there and I only have positive comments and a great experience. Also, the app with the photos and the daily report (incl.nap timing, meals, diaper changes) is so nice to have and makes it easy to ask questions about their day.

Kinder college has been my son's first daycare. We got the spot as soon as we wanted it. I was anxious about leaving my son who was so dependent on me for several hours. But the transition went smoothly and I can't thank the staff of Kinder college enough. They also helped potty train him, eat independently, play with other kids (that was a huge achievement). The staff is very humble and co operative. The day care was like a second home for my son. Special thanks to Michelle, Mawada and Tania for being amazing and patient. Shout out to Maryam and Kana for being so supportive and empathetic in times of issues.

Our son was at Kinder from 12 months to 4.5 years old (infant to toddler to pre-school). He very much enjoyed his time there.

He had great teachers at each stage along the way. They organized lots of interesting and useful activities both in the classroom and in outdoor activities/field trips. They also showed a great amount of care and attention for the kids.

All the staff in general were friendly and helpful as well.

They did great job with our son.

We have had wonderful experience at Kinder College! Our daughter really enjoyed her time in the infant room and in the toddler room. The teachers are amazing, paying attention to the children’s needs. The food is delicious and very well balanced. Our daughter has been having so much fun with the daily activities. I’d recommend this daycare to any parent looking for high quality childcare.

We had a wonderful experience at Kinder College. Infant room 2 teachers Miss Anita, Miss Bushra and Miss Lakshmi were fantastic. My son enjoyed every single day at daycare and we will really miss you guys. Thanks for all your care.

My main reason to put my daughter here was purely the location but I feel this was the best decision and I was so lucky!
(Well, compared to other daycare in the area, they were always quick to respond and very much accommodating, I liked that part as well).

In the span of 18 months (from 2.5years to 4years) being there, my daughter has learned a lot. She became more independent, caring, able share her food/toys, and speaks English (as we speak other language at home, she spoke almost no English when she started). She always wanted to go to daycare and all long weekend, she didn’t like the holiday Monday.

Both my daughter and myself loves the staff and teachers. They are very caring and passionate. They pay close attention to the children so we never had any outbreaks, my daughter didn’t get anything from daycare, always healthy! There are so many events happening, kept my daughter (somewhat myself as well) busy.

All our family will miss everything about here and with passion, I will recommend here for your child care option!

Kinder College was my daughter’s first day care. She was only 7 mo when she first started. I was a concerned mom then but thanks to the loving atmosphere at Kinder college, all my worries disappeared. The teachers (Esmeralda, Kasha and Victoria) were very kind and loving. They helped my daughter adjust to the day care within a matter of a week. I loved that they have monthly schedule with various activities like violin days, flute days, random red color day, pajama day, celebrating bday and graduations even for infants. Every day art work, circle time and sensory activities were my favorite. They even have a schedule for each day so you exactly know what’s taking place through out the day. Kids are taken for stroll daily and every thing is very timely so breakfast, lunch, nap time, snack time, strolls happen at a set time and this helped my daughter develop a routine. They also pay great deal of attention to proper hygiene. And the teachers listen to you if you want to try something different with your kid and they are willing to work with you. Best of all the overall staff is all smily and happy faces even the Managers Mariam and Kana.

We had a really great experience with Kinder College. The staff are great and our daughter warmed up to them immediately. We really enjoyed the email (picture) updates throughout the day, but those were just a small plus on top of all the great things about this place: the warmth and friendliness of the staff; the in-house cooked meals; and the place itself - they have a great patio for the toddlers to play on that's covered in artificial grass and our daughter loved it! Thank you all.

Kinder College has been an amazing experience for us. Our daughter (13 m.o.) has enjoyed her experience there a lot. We loved that she got be exposed to so many new activities from arts and crafts, cooking to exploring new toys. We liked how accommodating they were to our needs and especially loved all the pictures taken throughout the day. Her teachers (Anita, Lakshmi, Bushra) were very attentive and caring. We ended up switching to a different daycare after 3 months because the location was closer. It was a very tough decision because we liked Kinder College so much and our daughter adapted so well. We will definitely be back to visit.

I just called in to make an inquiry about the curriculum since there was nothing mentioned on the website but the staff was very rude. Would not recommend this day care

We have loved having our daughter at Kinder College since 2016. She has flourished and learned so much from the entire staff who have been so warm and loving for her entire experience. Finding daycare in Toronto is difficult, and I am so thankful that she ended up under their amazing care.
