My child has been attending MDNS since she was a toddler and I'm thrilled with the level of care she receives. The teachers are compassionate and loving, educated in child care techniques, respectful and professional in dealing with parents. The staff have never used physical punishments. Assuming parents discipline properly at home and teach children to be respectful, the staff can focus on teaching and preparing children for school. Can't say enough wonderful things about MDNS!

Whether regulated or not, home daycares sometimes advertise in newspapers or on community websites providing information on available space.
Step three: Visit See if it’s possible to visit the daycares or home child care facilities you’re considering. Ask lots of questions and gather information about their policies on the following things:
Staff training
Emergency care plans
Hygiene and cleanliness
Food and allergies

Step four: Register Once you’ve made the rounds of the childcare services available in Lyn ON, it’s time to pick the ones you like best and put your name on their waiting lists. Depending on the situation in your area, it may be a good idea to put your name on several lists.
