"My daughter attended Rugrats Daycare and we have nothing but great things to say about Ena and her staff. They go above and beyond to ensure that the children are all cared for and cater to their unique personalities, needs and interests. As a parent I never felt worried and was always assured of how my daughter was doing! Ena cooks delicious and nutritious meals for the kids as well as snacks. My daughter came home with art work from fun activities that they would do with the kids and Ena would send photos of my daughter happily playing which was always lovely to receive. We are all going to miss the Rugrats family very much and would highly recommend this daycare to anyone looking!"

"My son currently attends Rugrats Academy and he is flourishing. Ena and her staff are friendly, professional and most of all kind. She greets him every morning with a big hug and a warm smile. I am able to have peace of mind when I leave. One of the best aspects of Enas daycare is that she provides all the food for the day. She cooks nutritious and delicious food for all the children. This has helped my son to eat better and gain some weight as he is a very finicky eater. Not only do the kids enjoy a variety of fun toys and games they also focus on educational pursuits like learning numbers, letters, months and days of the week etc. The daycare also supports toilet training and will work with each family to support specific goals for that child. I would highly recommend this daycare."

"Ena and her staff of teachers are amazing! My son is well taken care of and provided with nutritious meals daily. Ena is great with communicating with parents. She sends updates and photos during the day of how my son is doing, any issues arising as well as daycare events and happenings. I’m especially grateful this centre is keen to follow its health and wellness policy (not surprising because Ena is a nurse!) unlike our previous one where kids are sickly more often due to poor health practises. I will definitely recommend Rugrats Academy."

"I cannot say enough good things about this daycare and the care they give my daughter. She has been going there for a year now and I couldn’t be happier. They provide quarterly reports on how she is developing, milestones she has reached and goals for her future development. They provide all meals and snacks which is such a time saver for me. Every day my daughter is so excited to see Ena, the ECE’s and her friends. They are always doing educational activities but also make lots of time to play outside and do art. Transitioning back to work was mde so much easier because I had piece of mind that my daughter is in such great hands. I would absolutely recommend this daycare without any hesitation."

I obtained services from this family / home daycare, dayhome and I find that:
"My daughter started attending at Rugrats Academy since she was 1 year old. Although it took her a while to adjust at first, Ena and the caregivers made a comfortable and loving environment for her. They provided me with photos and detailed information when I had questions throughout the day. They provide healthy meals/snacks for children so I didn’t have to worry about packing food for her and she got to try many different food. They keep children quite active so she falls asleep right away at night! She learned so many songs, how to count and how to interact with others. I absolutely love her art pieces that she took home almost every month. She looked forward to going to Rugrats everyday to meet with caregivers and all of her friends! I highly recommend Rugrats!!!"

"I absolutely love Ena and her staff, they are so good with my son. One of the things I value most is the connection with him, he tells me what they did together and asks about them on the weekends. He has been quite a difficult napper for previous daycares but on his first day at Rugrats Academy he went down for a nap. They provide nutritious, quality meals. They constantly challenge his mental development with workbooks and learning games/toys. I get very detailed monthly milestone reports, saying what skills my sons mastered, is working on and the goal by three. I highly recommend this daycare."

"My kids have changed a lot since they attended Rugrats. Ena potty trained my son and is now training my daughter. My son didn't know how to put on his own pants and shirt before and now he tells me that he can do it by himself! They even know to put away their plates when they are done eating. I'm glad that they have become more independent.
This Reggio Emilia school is filled with colourful toys (some are handmade just like the ones I saw on Pinterest which I never had time to make), art and craft supplies and a cozy reading corner. At first, I was worried about how much they will learn compared to a Montessori school. After seeing how happy my kids are at the end of the day, I know that Ena did give them the attention that they need during the day to guide them through their explorations. This is especially true for my daughter because she demands your attention. My kids love the water table and sandbox in the backyard. They love playing with Ena.
Ena definitely has high standards when it comes to food. Popsicle sticks are homemade, and fresh fruit smoothie is served during breakfast. My daughter eats a lot and Ena makes sure she is well fed. Food is always presented nicely with fruits, some meat, and carbs on three different sections of the plates. My daughter got so much sturdier after going to rugrats that I'm starting to think maybe I didn't feed her enough before!!
Ena is very knowledgeable in terms of health and care. For instance, she would feed my kids 2% Greek yogurt and not the other ones that are too fatty. She also puts on gloves when she prepares food.. (maybe because she was a nurse!)
Because my kids are doing so well with Ena, I was able to focus on my work while they are gone. She sent me pictures of my kids when we were transitioning so I knew they were ok. Ena adjusted the closing time of the school which helped us out a lot. In addition to the brief daily updates, she is willing to spend the time to have parent meetings once a month. Ena truly cares about the development of my children.
All in all, I think Rugrats really raised the bar for daycares. This school deserves a 5 out of 5 if not more!! Thank you, Ena! I'm glad we found you. :)"
