Greenlane Montessori has collected 114 Google reviews, which is more than most childcare centres in towns ten times the size of East Gwillimbury manage. It averages 4.3. Little Einstein Day Care Centre is close behind on volume at eighty-one reviews and slightly ahead on score at 4.5. MapleCub lists six licensed centres across the town, which covers Holland Landing, Sharon, Mount Albert and Queensville. Five carry enough reviews to average. The mean across them is 4.50, marginally above the Ontario figure of 4.46 that MapleCub calculates across more than two thousand rated centres.
That review depth is unusual. It is also the most useful thing on this page, because five of six rated is a far better evidence base than most Ontario towns this size offer, and it means the ordering here rests on something more than a handful of opinions.
East Gwillimbury Children's Centre holds 4.5 from eight reviews. Our Lady of Good Counsel Children's Academy sits at 4.2 from five. Good Shepherd Child Care Centre carries a 5.0. That comes from four reviews, which is the thinnest evidence on the page, and a single unhappy family would move it a long way.
French-language care exists here. Centres Educatifs de l'AFRY runs a campus in Holland Landing. It is the only French option among the six, and it has no reviews on record yet.
Age bands are missing across all six listings, and that gap runs through roughly four in five Ontario records in this dataset, so it says nothing about East Gwillimbury in particular and everything about how the provincial registry publishes its data. It does mean we cannot tell you which of these take infants under twelve months. That question has to go to the centre directly, and in York Region it is worth asking early, because infant rooms in this corridor fill from waitlists that open well before a birth.
All six operate under CWELCC. That is Ontario's fee-reduction agreement. It caps what parents pay for children under six, and confirming enrolment matters, because licensing and participation are separate things.
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 they take infants?

MapleCub isn't a waitlist. Signing up here doesn't hold a spot.
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.
