## Reviews
### null review (5/5)

Smoochie McGills has been an outstanding day care for our daughter. She joined at 9 months and is only leaving because we are moving.

All the teachers have been incredible. They have created an amazing educational environment where our daughter is now teaching us songs and has been exposed to great learning opportunities through play, painting and music.

I really recommend them. It’s been our daughter’s home away from home.

My daughter has been attending Smoochie since she was 2 years old, and it has been an absolute blessing. The environment feels incredibly warm and welcoming, just like home. The outdoor space is beautiful with plenty of shade, perfect for little ones to explore.
The teachers are all fantastic – professional, approachable, and clearly deeply care about the children. They've formed wonderful bonds with my daughter, and I always feel confident leaving her in their care.
The daycare is well-resourced with stimulating learning activities and provides nutritious meals. The occasional walks to the nearby reserve are a fantastic way for the children to get some fresh air and explore nature.
Overall, Smoochie fosters a wonderful sense of community, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a loving and nurturing environment for their child.

I cannot recommend Smoochie McGill highly enough! We’ve had the pleasure of having our daughter at Smoochie since she was 3 years old, and after 2 wonderful years, it’s clear that this center truly goes above and beyond.

From day one, the staff has been incredibly caring and attentive, always ensuring that my little one feels safe, loved, and engaged. The nurturing environment they’ve created has allowed our daughter to thrive both socially and developmentally.

If you’re looking for a childcare center where your child will receive exceptional care and attention, Smoochie is the perfect choice.
