One provider in Pembroke has enough Google reviews to average, and it holds 3.7 from seven of them. That is the entire rating evidence for the town. MapleCub lists six licensed services here. Five are centres and one is County of Renfrew Licensed Home Child Care, which is an agency placing children with approved providers in their own homes rather than a single site you can visit.

What to know about childcare in Pembroke
Two of the six deliver care in French. Centre Educatif Coeur des Jeunes l'Equinoxe and Garderie Les Petites Mains both serve the francophone community in the Ottawa Valley, which has a long-established French-speaking population that the provincial school boards have served for generations, and for a town of about fourteen thousand that is meaningful coverage.
Young Parent Support Program at the Pembroke site is targeted rather than open enrolment. Check eligibility first. Wise Owl Daycare Centre is the rated one, at 3.7 from seven reviews, which is thin enough that one strong or one bad year would move it noticeably. The Children's Garden Nursery School is a nursery school, and that usually means part-day sessions rather than full-day care.
Age bands are missing on all six records. Ontario publishes them inconsistently and roughly four in five listings in this dataset lack them, so infant availability has to be confirmed by phone. All six fall under CWELCC. Enrolment is still worth confirming separately.

Tips for choosing childcare in Pembroke
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.
