M.T.J.B. offers a safe and nurturing environment, with a wide range of opportunities for children to learn and grow. We provide nutritious snacks & lunches, a play-based curriculum, plenty of outdoor activities, kindergarten readiness programming and much, much more.

The kids love going to daycare each day! They are engaged in the programs and really respond well to the structure that MTJB provides. The best part is that the staff truly love all the children and they make sure that each day is a great day! The kids are in a safe and clean environment with a wonderful staff, and they are happy! Let's be honest, what more could we ask for?!

The early childhood educator staff at MTJB have been exceptional over the last 4 1/2 years. We have always felt very safe leaving our daughter with the wonderful staff and support.
Our daughter has formed life long bonds with some of the loving educators and we appreciate you all.

A million thank you's doesn't seem like enough.
You all are able to connect and care for our most important, valued possessions... our children!
It takes incredible dedication and patience to do what you all do and we are all so grateful.

Thank you for creating the best "home away from home" for our kids! Sending our children to MTJB was one of the best/easiest parenting decisions we've ever made. They've both learned so much from you, and E is thriving in JK thanks to all your hard work!

Allison, Kemptville Parent

Thank you for your patience and kindness.
Thank you for caring and teaching children how to care and share.
Thank you for your dedication to young minds, and helping them grow.

The staff at MTJB have been so friendly, kind, and welcoming. Our daughter has been having a blast in her class.

All of the educators have made a point to tell us how great R is doing! As first-time parents we are blown away and so happy to have these wonderful ECE's looking after our girl!

Heather & Tom, Kemptville Parents

They are absolutely amazing with the kids and the kids love going everyday. Very highly recommend whenever asked.

Mark, Maynard Parent

Staff truly care and love my children. My kids are excited to see their teachers/care givers each day. They pay attention to details and extra special instructions I ask them to follow even though I know they are busy. They have lots of out door time and stay current on learning activities to push and educate. We are very happy with the care we have been receiving.

Rachel, Maynard Parent

MTJB is more than just a daycare - it really is a family for the kids who attend their programs. I love that my daughter is cared for by exceptionally talented and caring staff. She is exposed to educational programming while having the freedom to be her creative little self. She looks forward to attending each day, and is full of wonderful stories when she comes home. Thank you for all you do!

Robyn, Maynard Parent

These AMAZING WONDERFUL educators help to shape our kids with their fun-filled, loving, caring and very patience words and actions.

Tracy, Kemptville Parent

I can honestly say that the MTJB staff have become family. Every ECE that has taken care of our son since he started at MTJB has been kind, understanding and loving. When he shouts “Bye! Love you!” at the end of everyday, it puts a smile on my face because I know he means it. The past year has been extraordinarily difficult for everyone, but you all continue to show up with a smile for our kids and it’s means the world to me. Thank you for being you, for being there for my son, and for me too!

The MTJB staff make my boys feel special and important. They've encouraged them and taught them throughout the levels and different rooms they've been in. We've noticed with each of them that they have grown exponentially both socially and personally since the first week they started at MTJB. They love going to MTJB every day and my wife and I appreciate the effort and care the staff put into each of them every day.

Phil, Maynard Parent

From day one we have loved MTJB!
I remember having so many questions as a first-time mom. I was worried about his sleep, his lack of desire for any food that wasn't fruit or veggies, how he'd interact with the other kids etc. The ladies in the infant room took every single fear away. As he's moved up through the rooms, he's grown more confident and social, and with each room change his vocabulary has exploded. He loves all his teachers and all the staff. At some point in time, each of you has been his best friend and he's talked about you all endlessly. Knowing how much he loves you all, makes us so happy with our choice.

My daughter has now moved on from the main site and is attending school and the before & after program. She has had a seamless transition and we have all of you to thank for this. You set her up for success teaching her skills like: listening, waiting for her turn, how to care for others, how to share, how to sit and eat together with others, and the list could go on. But coming from a parent who has a shy child, I cried on her first day and not because she was scared but the complete opposite. She walked into the school yard with her head held high knowing the environment would be structured similar to the environment you provide. Thank you for moulding the start of her academic future to be a positive one.

Colby, Kemptville Parent

What is not to love?! All the ladies I've had the pleasure of being around, I treat as family! I never knew any of them before I enrolled my kids 7 years ago...and they have all earned my respect and love. They treat my children like they were their own. To top it off, they've always been accommodating to our family's needs, and that's not easy to come by with our always fluctuating work schedules. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

We would like to thank each of you for your ongoing support with L's daycare journey. As a first time Mom during COVID, I was terrified of the idea of her starting daycare without seeing the rooms and meeting all of you. You made a point to introduce yourselves at pickup and make me feel comfortable and updated about her transition. Now as she moves from infant to toddler, I have no worries that she will get all of the support and care she needs from your amazing team!

Natalie, Kemptville Parent

Ever since my kids started at MTJB, they were welcomed with opened arms and have always felt at home. We are so happy we made the transition and that is 100% because of the staff!

Jordan, Kemptville Parent

There's no better feeling in the morning when you can drop off your child at a daycare where you have the utmost confidence in the staff and teachers. It's also written all over J's face when we pick him up - he loves his time at MTJB! Thank you for taking such great care of the ones we love the most, and for all that you do!

Emma, Kemptville Parent

I just wanted to send a quick note to tell you just how much I appreciate each and every one of the MTJB staff. From you and the friendly and compassionate ladies at the front door, to my child's educators who go above and beyond to give extra love to our daughter each and every day! We truly appreciate all that you do! (and even more so during this crazy pandemic) Finding MTJB childcare centre was one of the best things we ever did!

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

Emily, Kemptville Parent

We cannot express enough thanks for everyone at MTJB including our daughters teachers. Even though we are still going through the adjustment period, you all have been so accommodating and welcoming. N always comes home being so happy after her weekdays spent with all of you. She loves all of the toys and crafts. She even tells us about her delicious snacks! Dropping her off to all of you for the day leaves myself and my husband with total peace of mind. Thank you all a million for what you do!
