No words will ever be enough to fully express how wonderful our experience at Sunnyside was for my little one and me. The staff is absolutely amazing. They are so attentive and patient. I am in awe with how at ease my child was with them from the very first day. The building is clean, well designed. And they have a chef who cooks such tasty looking meals! My child made so many friends, and has learned so much during his time there.I highly recommend Sunnyside to any parent looking for a safe and warm environment for their kiddo! Truly without a doubt the best daycare in Montreal.

Sunnyside is hands down the best daycare! As a first time mom I was extremely apprehensive about sending my son to daycare and going back to work. Sunnyside staff are extremely welcoming, caring, attentive, nurturing and professional. We have witnessed our son flourish since attending Sunnyside. They foster an inclusive environment and a developmentally appropriate curriculum. The educators do an excellent job at keeping us updated throughout the day of our child’s progress and mood. The facilities are bright and clean and we love how much time they spend playing outdoors. The nutritious meals prepared daily are a true blessing. We are so grateful to have such an enriching environment to send our son!

My son started at sunnyside daycare when he was about 12 months old, he is slow to warm up and didn’t like strangers but Sunnyside made the transition easy. The small classroom sizes and caring gentle approach from the educators helped him transition easily. They provide a lot of outdoor play which is very important to me as a parent and have a fantastic menu all made on site. The small establishment also makes for easy transition between rooms as the child gets older, it truly feels like a family at Sunnyside. Stefani, the owner is very passionate about early childhood and will answer all your questions and concerns. I highly recommend this daycare 😊

My son has been attending Sunnyside for about 6 months now after a bad experience with a home daycare. He started in the infant room and will be moving up to the toddler room soon. All of the educators are FANTASTIC. You walk into the daycare and it really feels like a community where the children are respected and cared for. There is TONS of outdoor play, even during the colder months. The menu is catered in house by a trained chef, so the kids eat better than we do haha!They provide tons of age appropriate creative activities that let their imaginations run wild!A special shout out to their educator Mary in the infant room! My son adores her and sometimes cries when we need to take him home. If that doesn’t show you that it’s a good daycare, I don’t know what does 🤣

Welcoming and warm daycare. Perfect atmosphere for kids who are extremely well surrounded by excellent staff. The director is very hands on and implements fun and creative activities for the kids daily. The facility is great and the kids get lots of outdoor time as well. 5 stars all across the board: staff, food, learning activities , structure, creativeness and most importantly love and support for the kids. An overall wonderful Daycare.

I visited a lot of daycares and sunnyside was the only daycare that I felt I could trust to send my daughter to. My daughter loves her daycare and educators. Most importantly, I like their philosophy and how much Stefani, the director, is supportive.
