Childcare provider: Teresa
I obtained services from this family / home daycare, dayhome and I find that:
"My son’s daycare seems to really be taking a hit this year and I feel the need to spread the word on some more sites so people know she has spots avail. Teresa has been running her daycare for over 20 years and used to be affiliated with Andrew Fleck until they changed their boundaries. She is located on Albion road just after the racetrack, before Mitch Owens, she has a huge play area both inside and out, she cooks all fresh meals with quality ingredients, she has circle time, teaches letters, numbers and songs and so much more. My child is constantly singing songs that she taught him. Most importantly, she loves the kids like they are her own and many families stay in touch with her well after daycare years are over. I know I will stay in touch with her and her family! They are great and I ❤️ Teresa!
I’m happy to answer any questions, but I cannot say enough about her and the care she provides. I don’t have one negative thing to say. Her rates are good and she is totally great at updates at the end of each day."

"My son is currently at Teresa's daycare, and my daughter went there until she was ready for school. Teresa is fantastic! Somehow she gets the kids to eat all this healthy homemade food (it always smells like some delicious soup at the morning at drop off) and spends a lot of time outdoors. Both my kids love Teresa and I trust her 100% to take good care of them and would highly recommend her to anyone. Her house is a very loving atmosphere and feels like family."

"As a first time mom, I found it extremely difficult finding someone I was comfortable leaving my son with when I returned to work. Upon meeting Teresa and walking into her home, I immediately knew that she was the one I wanted to take care of my son.
My son clearly loves Teresa and has a wonderful time with her and the other children. I have seen him change in such amazing ways in such a short time in her care and he is so happy at the end of every day and sleeping so well at night. From the incredible home made food, the huge playroom in the basement, and the very spacious yard, the kids are so happy that they are never in a hurry to go home at the end of the day....my son included. ☺️
Teresa is an incredible woman who i would recommend to anyone looking for daycare. She clearly loves the children in her care and they feel the same way about her."

"Teresa is a wonderful and caring provider and we were very fortunate that our son was in her home care for the last two years. Her home is perfect for little ones with a big basement full of toys and a huge backyard filled with things for kids to do. Our son very much enjoyed his time there and always looked forward to going in the mornings. Teresa is also an amazing cook and she always provides healthy, homemade lunches every day. We would highly recommend Teresa's home care and would be happy to provide a reference to anyone who is interested."

"This is our second review of Teresas's daycare, which we thought we would post here to provide an update. We have now known Teresa for 3 years and she, at the time this review is written,now takes care of our two daughters.
Our oldest will be starting school in September and we feel she is more then ready, having learned alot from her time spent with Teresa. Not only do the kids practice the basics (numbers, letters, shapes, etc) but they also learn very important social skills. when our yougest daughter started daycare here, she immediately fell in love with Teresa and all the other children, just as our oldest did two years prior.
Great basement play area for rainy days and a huge backyard with swings, slides and anything else a child could want. the kids play outside every chance they get and really lear to love the outdoors!
Anyone looking for a daycare provider in this area should give Teresa a call and arrange for a visit."

"We are extremely pleased with our decision to leave our son in the care of Teresa at Rainbow Daycare. She has a fantastic facility - big fenced yard, nice play area and single rooms with cribs for each child. But it's when we see the big grin on our son's face when he sees her every morning and when she kisses him at the end of each day that we know with certainty that he is indeed in good care.

I obtained services from this family / home daycare, dayhome and I find that:
"Prior to meeting Teresa, we met with no less than 12 other daycare providers. Upon walking into her home, we immediately knew that Teresa was the one we wanted to take care of our daughter. As first time parents, we were very reluctant to leave our child with a "stranger" for the first time but seeing how well they immediately bonded together gave us a lot of confidence.
The atmosphere at Teresa's is great. From the home made food, to the huge playroom in the basement, the kids there never want to leave! Teresa creates a family atmosphere and you can tell that, even when there is a difference in age between the kids, they still all feel and are treated like family. Lots of hugs and kisses when they all see each other.
Teresa is an incredible woman who treats our daughter like she was her own. We can't wait for her to take care of the next one on the way."

"Teresa was referenced through a neighbour who also had Teresa as a daycare provider for both her boys. My first son Luka was under her care from 13 months and is still (he is now 3 1/2). My second son Xavier is also under her care (started at 1 and is now almost 2). My boys absolutely love her. They learn alot because we are a French speaking home and they are perfectly bilingual! We never count, sing or say the ABC's in English but they come home with all that knowledge.
The meals that Teresa prepares are fantastic. I don't know where she finds the time or energy but she is one well organized woman! She gives them a complete breakfast, great snacks and wonderful lunch, all homemade! They are very well fed!
Every year for Christmas santa comes over! She also makes sure to celebrate each birthday with a homemade cake! When the weather is nice, you can be sure the kids are playing outside in her amazing (huge!) backyard.
In a few words, Teresa is fantastic and we are privileged to have her in our lives!"

"This daycare is exceptional! We moved to Ottawa from Montreal and that was already a very big change for a 1yr old so I was extremely hesitant to put her in a daycare. I went to 2 daycares prior to finding Teresa. The moment my husband and I walked in we knew we had "found the one". Teresa cooks homemade food every single day. She jars her own preserves which are then fed to the children throughout the winter, in the summer she makes lovely nutritional food with vegetables from her garden. Our daughter absolutely loves going there, in the morning she nags us to hurry up because we take too long to leave the house and when we pick her up we always have to play a little while longer in the large backyard or on the swing set. In our home we call her "Mother Teresa". I cannot express enough how amazing this daycare is, she has learned to count, Abc's, sing all kinds of songs and is always bringing home lots of art. I dread the day our daughter has to start school because I cannot imagine our baby not attending Rainbow daycare anymore she has flourished so much since she started. Needless to say my second child will also be attending Teresa's home daycare. Teresa keep up the excellent work."

"Love, love, love Teresa and her abilities to care for our son. The home environment and close bond Teresa maintains with each of the children is so comforting and very much like an extended family feeling. Her food is fabulous and nutricious. Our son will eat better for her than he will for us! She always ensures that everyone gets outside for fresh air in her vast, fenced, play yard and fosters the growth of these wonderful little ones in so many ways. We drive a long way daily just to bring him there. Overall description: Clean, safe, loving, fun, organized place for your child. We are lucky to have found her!!"

"I only have one child that has been with Teresa for just about 1.5 years. When looking for daycare before retuning to work I have to say I wasn't comfortable leaving her until at the last moment I met Teresa. She loves and takes care of the children in her care and my little one is happy to go there every morning.
Teresa feeds the kids exceptionally well, every morning she is up cooking them a great homemade meal and sometimes I wish I could come and eat lunch with them! They are outside playing every chance they get. Her house is clean and welcoming. I trust Teresa to watch my daughter and to make sure she is safe while in her care."
