Little Leaf Port Credit
At Little Leaf Daycare, we believe that every child thrives when learning feels joyful, engaging, and meaningful. Rooted in both play-based learning and the Montessori philosophy, our approach blends structure with freedom — creating a safe, nurturing environment where children can explore, discover, and grow at their own pace.
Our educators combine one-on-one academic guidance with open-ended play experiences, encouraging curiosity and creativity while building focus and confidence. We understand that learning happens best when children can balance active exploration with calm reflection, so our programs are designed to support every child’s unique rhythm and learning style.
With four convenient locations across the GTA, Little Leaf Daycare offers flexible options to fit your family’s needs — including 2-day, 3-day, and 5-day programs. Each of our centres provides bright, welcoming spaces where children feel at home and parents feel confident knowing their little ones are supported every step of the way.

What Parents Say...
Little Leaf Daycare has given us a great preschool experience. Not only do the teachers provide a wonderfully nurturing and safe environment, but the educational curriculum is thoughtfully planned out to expose the children to an incredible range of topics and experiences.
My children are learning the traits of good citizenship and my daughter willingly cleans up after herself and treats others with kindness and respect for the most part! Lol. We have been so pleased with the quality of the Little Leaf Daycare experience!
The school is the closest environment to having your children at home but with many more opportunities to learn, grow and blossom as individuals.

My son was at a corporate daycare with multiple locations prior to Little Leaf Daycare and our experience there was terrible. So we were anxious when we transitioned our son to Little Leaf, but we are so glad we did!! He loved it! Prior to Little Leaf he would cry everyday at drop off, not wanting to go and after we switched, he jumped into the supervisor's hands and didn't look back. He was always so happy to go there.
The staff are very friendly, reliable and professional. He felt very welcomed and we felt confident that he was getting great care. Since he started going to Little Leaf, my mind was at ease. The staff also posts lots of pictures and updates during the day so we can see what our little one has been up to!

Deciding on the right daycare can be a huge decision, which is why we recommend Little Leaf Daycare to all our neighbors! We share in Little Leaf's believe that, children have the right to quality care, which is safe, healthy and provides learning opportunities promoting growth and development. Lauren and her team are caring, fun, supportive, and very committed to safety, which is why we can’t wait to expose our second son to all that Little Leaf Daycare has to offer!
