Licensed Infant Care in L Ile Bizard, QC

Infant Care in L Ile Bizard

Four of the eight licensed daycares on L'Île-Bizard belong to a single operator. All eight are centres. Six carry enough reviews to average, and that average is 4.47, close to the Québec figure of 4.52 that MapleCub calculates across roughly eighteen hundred rated listings in the province. Age licensing is complete here. That is unusual anywhere in Canada, and it means the numbers on this page are reportable rather than inferred: seven of the eight are approved for infants, and all eight take toddlers and preschoolers, so a parent looking for a poupon place has real information to work from instead of a blank field.

What to know about childcare in L Ile Bizard

Le Petit Castel is that operator. Three of its four sites show an identical 4.0 across 21 reviews, which means one Google profile is being reported against several installations rather than three separate verdicts. Garderie le Berceau Enchanté holds a 5.0 across 26, the deepest independent review base on the island.

This is a Montréal borough, not a separate municipality. L'Île-Bizard–Sainte-Geneviève sits at the northwest corner of the island and connects to Pierrefonds by a single bridge, which is the whole story of child care here, because a congested or closed bridge turns a five-minute drop-off into a forty-minute one and there is no second route to fall back on.

Licensed capacity runs from 21 places to 90. Centre Éducatif à Ciel Ouvert and CPE la Campamuse have no public rating yet. The Petit Castel group's four sites hold roughly 290 of the 531 licensed places listed on this page, so a single operator controls more than half the supply on the island, and a bad experience with that operator narrows your remaining options sharply.

Ask about the waiting list registry. The Portail d'inscription aux services de garde is the provincial system, and a garderie that tells you to register there is following the rules rather than brushing you off.
