Confidence:

An Important Predictor For Success

Confidence is a powerful predictor of success, just as important as academic achievement. We believe courage to take first steps is already half the journey to success.

In every Newstead Academy classroom, children and educators work together as a caring community. Through positive social interactions and a supportive learning environment, children build self-confidence, explore new ideas, and develop the skills they need for lifelong success in school and beyond.

What Parents

Have To Say About Newstead

Best kindergarten in GTA

This is really the best kindergarten in the GTA. High quality toys, children's favorite indoor playground, small theater! The daycare is full of the humanistic care! My baby cried every day in the previous daycare, but since she came to Newstead, she looks forward to coming to school every day and don't cry anymore. Every teacher is great: professional background, patience, and great care to children. The owners pay great attention to detail and try their best to build a great daycare for children! The teachers need to update the teaching goals every week based on children's development. Each child will have their own learning goals every week. The teacher just takes care of the kids. There are other coworkers to take pictures, clean, decorate. This leaves everything to a professional level. So that teachers can pay all attention to children. Taking pictures of children every day is like professional child photography. Every day when I pick up my baby, I find new baby pictures on the wall. Let me sigh, the teachers here do not rest? That's so dedicated! Three meals are provided here. Foods are fresh and organic every day. Chef is from star hotels. Thats why my baby like eat all three meals here.

Excellent Daycare

Excellent Daycare. Our son has had so much fun since he switched over from another place. Everyday there is a smile on his face. The facility is clean, bright, and full of materials for kids to learn and play with. Teachers are super nice and adequate to take care of the little ones. My wife and I like the place a lot and we highly recommend it for anyone looking for a daycare facility.

Great experience

We have had such a great experience with Newstead. The facility is brand new and beautiful, but the most important thing is that you can really feel the love here!! All of the staff are warm and welcoming and treat the children and parents like family. Just by walking through the halls, you hear the teachers singing and laughing with the children and you can tell they truly enjoy what they do.
