  • Good people I trust them with my life

    Narender KaurJul 30, 2026

  • My daughter started here when she was 20 months old and she enjoys it from the first day.. the transition in the beginning was smooth and everyone in the school is warm and friendly. It’s like a home away from home. Also, good etiquette is being taught, food is well thought and I see that my daughter has been learning a lot!! Also very affordable, recommend this play school for anyone looking to have a safe, healthy and good learning environment for the child :)

  • I highly recommend this daycare! My 2-year-old son absolutely loves it. The environment is safe and clean, which gives me peace of mind. They provide nutritious meals, and there's a great variety of activities that keep the kids engaged and happy. I trust the staff completely, and it's clear they genuinely care about the children. A fantastic place for little ones.

  • My two-year old daughter loved Play Ways Daycare. Every morning, she couldn’t wait to go to her daycare, and she always leave with a big smile on her face, which is how I knew she really enjoyed her time there. The school has a great well balanced curriculum. They do ton of arts and craft, reading, dancing time and playtime. The teachers and staff are wonderful and flexible, which I really appreciate it as a working parent. Overall I highly recommend Play Ways Day Care!!
