Parent Testimonials
"Our daughter recently started the full-day program and is thriving. She loves MySchool so the more time spent there the better. The program is great preparation for JK next year - her sense of pride about staying for the extended-hours, openness to trying new foods at lunch, and growing independence have been wonderful to watch develop in her." Ash & John
"Since enrolling at MySchool, I have seen my daughter blossom into a happier, more confident version of her already curious and imaginative self thanks to the gentle, responsive, nurturing care she receives from her teachers. We have participated in the extended lunch program since it was first piloted, and we highly recommend it to anyone considering it as an option. The food is nutritious and delicious, and it has transformed my picky eater into a person who always reaches for second helpings. The daily rhythm of sitting down to share a meal with peers creates beautiful moments of connection and conversation around food – one of the greatest joys in life, and a practice I hope she'll carry with her always. Outside of mealtime, the children have more free time to play and explore the world around them through reading stories, dressing up, making art, dancing to music, building forts, and more. Every day I am regaled with amazing stories about the wonderful things she gets up to at school." Rosie Prata
"Our daughter Briar has LOVED the extended program! In particular, the unique time spent one-on-one with teachers and classmates she wouldn’t normally get in the full, busy class. The lunch options have been excellent and we’re so happy she’s taking part" Melissa & Scott
"Wonderful preschool, with gifted teachers, that also fostered a real sense of community. Our son really thrived at My School and it helped ready him for kindergarten." M.M.
"I would highly recommend My School. My twin boys both had wonderful experiences. Caring, creative, fun teachers. Has helped to give my boys some autonomy away from home in a caring, and warm environment. Wish we could go another year but JK is calling!" J.M.
"My School is a treasure in the neighbourhood. The atmosphere is inviting and nurturing. The teachers are true gems: warm, caring, highly knowledgeable about kids this age and what makes them tick. Each child is appreciated as an individual with his/her own strengths and vulnerabilities, and each is nurtured accordingly. The program is play-based and the children can choose how they spend much of their time - whether painting, crafting, reading, building, imagining, playing, or all of the above. Most tellingly, my daughter loves My School, and her teachers! We will miss My School sorely when we move to JK next year, but younger sister will be enrolled as soon as she is old enough." S.G.
"The incredible teachers and environment at MySchool has helped my son transition to the incredible 4.5 year old he is today. With MySchool, kids as young as 2.5 get to learn what it's like to go to school in a completely safe, nurturing and loving environment. My son has met his best friends at MySchool and in turn I have met some of the most amazing parents and kids in my neighbourhood. I'm so lucky to be able to send my second son next year so I get to stay in this incredible community for 2 more years." J.P.
"It has been our third year with My School as a family and parting will be hard. Pauline and Susan are wonderful teachers and thanks to them (and those warm hugs from Mariana!) our children are growing to be curious and confident little people. It is hard to describe why My School is such a parenting highlight but, oh well, I just cannot imagine giving those tiny ones a better start. I have often had the impression that the teachers know my children better than I do. And the wonderful program, the crafts, numerous activities to nurture the interests of literally each little one. I learned a lot and I think that bonded with my children more. Finally the numbers: for the maximum of 24 or 25 children, there is six fully engaged adults. You can't beat that!" M.J.
"One of the most AMAZING highlights of my parenting experience..We were there for four irreplaceable years...I would absolutely recommend MySchool. Wonderful, caring, creative, brilliant teachers (who will teach you a lot too if you watch closely!) :o) Don't miss this chance to enrich the lives of your entire family, connect with your neighbourhood, meet like minded families and new friends. Volunteer to give something back to your neighbourhood and spend this time with your small children." K.M.
