Five of Amherstburg's seven licensed centres carry enough reviews to average, which is unusually good coverage for a town this size. The average is 4.32. There is no licensed home care on the list at all. Two rate at 4.9. Both are Creative Child Learning Centre sites, and both show the same seven reviews, so that pair is really one operator's score reported twice. Little Buddies Preschool Centre carries the deepest feedback at 25 reviews and 4.2, and a second Little Buddies record sits at 3.3 across seven, which is worth noticing before you treat the brand as a single known quantity.
Amherstburg sits at the southwest tip of Essex County, below Windsor. Commuting patterns run north. That matters for child care because a fair number of families here place a child near work in Windsor rather than near home, which thins local demand and makes waitlists less brutal than the listing count would suggest.
Franco-Sol operates a French-language site at St. Jean Baptiste. Bright Child Montessori is the only Montessori listing. Good Shepherd Lutheran Christian Day Care sits at 4.3 across six reviews and is the one faith-based option in the set, so between them the seven listings cover more distinct programme types than most towns this size manage.
Fee support runs through the Windsor-Essex service system. Centres in the Canada-Wide agreement charge reduced fees for children under six, and the older income-tested subsidy is administered separately by the City of Windsor on behalf of the county.
No Amherstburg listing carries licensed age ranges. Ontario's registry data is sparse on that field generally, running around 82% unknown, so the absence here says nothing about whether infant rooms exist. Phone and ask. The licence posted in the lobby names the age groups the centre is approved for.

Verify Licensing
Confirm the centre holds a current provincial licence. A licence means the province checked baseline health, safety and staffing standards — it is a floor, not a ranking.
Read Parent Reviews
Reviews cover what an inspection report never will: what drop-off feels like, whether messages get answered, how long staff stay.
Ask About Curriculum
Ask what a Tuesday actually looks like. "Montessori" and "play-based" mean different things at different centres, so the daily schedule tells you more than the label does.
Consider Schedule Fit
Check the posted open and close times against your commute, not just your workday. Then ask what happens when you're late.

Do daycares in Amherstburg take the CWELCC subsidy?

How much does daycare cost in Amherstburg, ON?
Fees vary by age group and whether a centre is in CWELCC. Subsidised and $10-a-day spaces cost far less than market-rate care. Each MapleCub listing shows the provider's fee details where available so you can compare Amherstburg centres directly.
What should I look for when choosing a daycare in Amherstburg?
Check for an active provincial licence, staff-to-child ratios, program approach (play-based, Montessori, francophone), age-group coverage, CWELCC participation, and parent reviews. MapleCub lets you filter Amherstburg daycares by all of these.
Which daycares in Amherstburg have the strongest Google ratings?
Among Amherstburg centres with enough reviews to judge, Creative Child Learning Centre holds 4.9★ (7 reviews), Creative Child Learning Centre-Stellamaris holds 4.9★ (7 reviews), and Good Shepherd Lutheran Christian Day Care holds 4.3★ (6 reviews). A small number of reviews is weak evidence: treat a handful of 5-star ratings as a starting point, not proof of quality.
Ask about spots near you
We email the centre and ask whether they have room for your child's age group. If they answer, we send you what they said. We don't hold live vacancy data, and centres aren't obliged to reply.
