On behalf of our family I would like to thank Holly and the team of Discovery Tots for the care provided to my little one. Its been an absolute pleasure working with their team. Words fall short for the care taken by Ms Alyaa (sage hill location). We have been so grateful for her. She is an absolute angel. She always went above and beyond for my daughter and the other kids. We wish their team all the success and best for your future. Kindest and sincerest thanks. Chawla Family

Our experience with our dayhome and Discovery Tots was exceptional. We were looking for a “family feel” and that’s what our little one had while enrolled. It helped that my two friends also had their toddlers enrolled, there’s a strong community! Would absolutely recommend to other families.

Thank you so much, Stephanie! It means so much to hear that your family felt the warm, family atmosphere we work so hard to create. One of the things we love most about Discovery Tots is the sense of community that grows between our families, educators, and little ones. Thank you for trusting us with your daughter and we wish your family nothing but the very best! 💙

We've been with Ms. Jaci's Discovery Tots day home in Dalhousie coming up to cumulatively 3.5 years now, both my son and now my daughter were and are under her care. I can only say great things! Prior to coming to DTD, my son had been in a very poorly managed daycare for nearly a year, where the entire time he was there he was becoming increasingly shy, closed off and quiet. Only a couple months after switching him over to Ms. Jaci's dayhome, he started noticeably blossoming!! He quickly started talking more, playing with friends, laughing and happily sharing with us about his adventures at dayhome. Ms. Jaci's love for the kids in her care is very apparent, she treats them as her own, lovingly instructs them to be good people, makes very delicious healthy foods, always brings them outdoors to play, prepares engaging activities and crafts, and also works hard to continue developing her credentials as a child care professional. She is great at communicating whenever I have questions! We trust her highly, and have placed our daughter in her care as well. We are incredibly sad to be saying goodbye this year as our daughter heads off to pre-school in the Fall, but I wouldn't hesitate at all to recommend Ms. Jaci and DTD.

Your kiddos have been such a gift to Ms. Jaci and our program! We can't thank you enough for this glowing review :) Wishing you all the best and please do stay in touch!

Mike 2025.12.11

Highly recommend Miss. Nazia at the Rosscarrock dayhome. Our son is normally shy and at previous care centers he was not comfortable with anyone. Every morning he is excited and happy to see Miss. Nazia. He has learned and grown so much since we started care with her.

What a wonderful surprise to see this review! Thank you so much Mike :) We are beyond happy to hear this!!

My family and I are very happy with the way that Ms Yani interacts and cares for our daughter. Our baby girl displays so much joy and excitement whenever she’s being dropped off/ picked up from Yanis home. She always looks forward to going to her dayhome (even on weekends, haha). I simply love how Yani helped her gel in to her dayhome—makes me cry a little (tears of joy), when my daughter prefers her teacher over me some days 🥹🫶🏽 Otherwise, I say congratulations to Discovery Tots agency, Yani is representing you so gracefully and passionately 🙂 Big up!! 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽

This brings tears to our eyes, Precious!! Thank you entrusting your daughter into our care and we're so thankful that your experience has been wonderful!!

Julia Appave 2025.10.20

Holly and her team run a wonderful operation and we were very happy with the care provided to our daughter over the past 2 years. She really enjoyed her time with Miss Mina and developed genuine connections with the other children there. Wholesome food, fun activities, and a warm, nurturing environment for learning. Communication was always excellent with quick responses and a collaborative approach for any issues that arose. Thanks Holly and Miss Mina!😊

Thank you for your lovely review! We’ve loved having your daughter with us and are so glad she’s thrived in our care. We’ll miss her and wish your family all the very best!

A X 2025.08.14

We registered our son for the summer break program to help with his speech and social interaction skills. He has been attending DTD at Auburn Bay with Miss Ruby and she is beyond amazing. Her passion and continued patience with our son has been super helpful and we feel sad that our time with DTD is coming to an end. We would definitely recommend DTD to family and friends and looking forward to registering our son again next summer break :) thank you Holly and Miss Ruby for all you do!!!

Reply from Discovery Tots Dayhome 2025.08.26

This is so every kind and having your kiddo in our program for the summer was truly our pleasure! You're welcome back anytime :)

Jaylene R 2025.08.05

We’ve had a fantastic experience with Discovery Tots. Holly has gone out of her way to help us — she’s organized, caring, and proactive. Miss Jennifer’s day home has been a warm and nurturing environment that our family has absolutely adored. The annual carnival is a perfect example of how much they care — complete with a magician, bouncy castles, and face painting. It’s clear they put their hearts into everything they do. We highly recommend Discovery Tots to any family looking for a day home that truly cares.

Reply from Discovery Tots Dayhome 2025.08.05

Such a sweet review, Jaylene! We can't thank you enough for this :)

Caitlin Akins 2025.07.06

Our son was in the care of a provider in Tuscany and we couldn’t have asked for a better Dayhome. She is engaging, caring , attentive and celebrates holidays/birthdays/victories with all of the kids like they are one of her own. He always came home happy after a good day of play and learning. Our son started school and we were sad to leave ! I will forever remember her kindness and generosity towards the kids. I’m sure all of the providers are as great as her. Holly and her whole agency in general are so friendly and very easy to deal with

Faye Wong 2025.07.04

Absolutely thankful for Discovery Tots Dayhome! Holly and Scott have built such a wonderful agency focusing on helping educators and families needing child care. The set ups are inspiring - making me wish I had a space like this when I was child. I really love the continuity of the set ups; this made it easier for my son to get comfortable when visiting other locations. I also like how the policies and procedures help ensure high quality care is provided to children and at the same time, set the educators up for success. Communication has been excellent; response times are fast and my questions are always answered. I used to think dayhomes were not great; ever since joining DTD, my view with dayhomes have changed. My son is very happy at Ms. Grace's dayhome in Tuscany.

Oh Faye, this warmed my heart and we are so thankful for you and this beautiful review! We have loved having you be a part of the Discovery Tots Family!!

Laura and Jordan Blatz 2025.06.25

We have been incredibly fortunate to have had two of our children attend Miss Ellen’s Discovery Tots Dayhome over the past several years. The programming Ellen provides is entertaining, educational and inspires creativity and inquisitiveness. Above all, Miss Ellen is incredibly loving and kind. We couldn’t have asked for more in a childcare provider.

Beautiful review for Ms. Ellen! Thank you so very much!

sandeep kaur 2025.06.24

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Ms. Raman’s day-home. The space is always clean, organized, and filled with age-appropriate toys. Highly recommended to any parent looking for a quality home-based childcare option in Kinniburgh, Chestermere. Thank you.

Shelby R 2025.06.24

Discovery Tots is amazing! My son loves Miss Hailey’s dayhome, some days he doesn’t even want to leave, he has so much fun there! I am always blown away by the activities and the space is nice and clean. You can tell a lot of care and thought goes into everything they do. We were originally looking at larger daycares but I’m so glad we found Discovery Tots! It feels like a second home for my son and he’s really enjoying interacting with kids of different ages too!

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to Discovery Tots Agency for the incredible support and dedication they’ve shown throughout my entire dayhome setup journey. From our first conversation to the final touches in my space, they’ve been nothing short of amazing. The transformation of my dayhome, brought tears to my eyes — it was everything I envisioned and more. The materials, the layout, the organization — every detail was thoughtfully planned to create a warm, welcoming, and enriching space for the children. The team truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Holly, Scott and Faye were so kind, patient, and encouraging through every step. They answered all my questions, helped me feel confident, and made the licensing process feel manageable and exciting. I’ve had so many compliments from families already, and I know none of it would have been possible without the help of Discovery Tots. Thank you from the bottom of my heart — your support has meant the world to me. I feel so proud to be part of such a caring and passionate agency.

I can’t say enough good things about Miss Hailey and the amazing day home she runs through Discovery Tots Dayhome. As a parent, it’s never easy to trust someone else with your child, but Miss Hailey made that transition so smooth. She’s kind, attentive, and truly has a gift with children. My little one loves it there so much that I often have to bribe them just to come home! The crafts they do are absolutely amazing — thoughtful, creative, and something we always look forward to bringing home. You can tell a lot of care and effort goes into every activity. The agency itself has also been fantastic. Discovery Tots is organized, easy to communicate with, and clearly dedicated to quality care. From start to finish, the entire experience has been nothing but positive. I feel so lucky to have found them and would recommend them in a heartbeat.

I had a really good experience with Discovery Tots Dayhome! They were very patient with me and my situation. They were actually able to work with me so that my little one could start daycare sooner then I was originally thinking. They were kind, the lady I am set up with is also so sweet, she has a lot of experience working in a daycare, her place is SO clean, she has a really really nice set up which actually set her apart from other daycares. They have cribs which was nice to see considering my kid is crib trained and he would not just sleep on the floor with a blanket. They really tried hard to make it a good experience for every child.

We’ve had a wonderful experience with Discovery Tots Dayhome. The team is not only very professional but also exceptionally responsive to any questions or concerns. The environment is clean, safe, and nurturing, and it’s clear the staff truly care about the well-being and development of each child. They maintain excellent communication with parents and always keep us informed about daily activities and progress. It’s comforting to know our child is in such capable and caring hands. Highly recommend Discovery Tots to any parent looking for quality childcare in a supportive and engaging setting.

JDJ RN 2025.06.16

We just signed up our daughter with Discovery Tots and the entire process has been smooth and reassuring from start to finish. Holly, the admin, was incredibly accommodating and patiently answered all our questions. She guided us through every step with warmth and professionalism. The dayhome setup was so inviting clean, organized, and truly child-friendly. Our daughter felt comfortable right away and really enjoyed our first visit. The toys were clean and neatly arranged, and there were lots of thoughtful touches that made the space even more appealing. We also love that they provide an app for updates and monitoring, which gives us peace of mind as parents. It’s such a relief to know our daughter is in a safe, nurturing, and well organized environment. We’re so happy to have found Discovery Tots!

Oli Auz 2025.06.16

We are extremely pleased with our experience with Discovery Tots. Our kids are thriving in a loving, safe, and stimulating environment that feels like a second home. They adore their caregiver (Miss Ellen, in Dalhousie NW) who goes above and beyond every day, creating fun learning experiences and supporting their emotional growth. We also get regular updates from the app (Lillio), which is a plus. We recommend contacting the agency if you are looking for a dayhome !
