Saskatoon Dayhome in Sasktoon daycare openings, reviews and ratings

Daycare description / philosophy

I am a 32 year old mother and wife. My family and I moved into Montgomery 3 years ago and just love this neighbourhood!

I absolutely love children and believe they learn so much when they are small. They need to be in a safe home like environment to thrive, while they are away from their parents. I make healthy meals and snacks and have structured activities mixed with unstructured ones. I believe each child and their parents are different and will try to meet everyones needs. Children need good role model to teach them values and respect of themselves and others. I love knowing that I can be a part of that!
