Rooted in the commitment of fostering empathy, our learning environments aim to cultivate a true understanding of and genuine care for each individual. Our programming is enriched by diversity and inclusion, facilitating the development of compassionate, imaginative and helpful humans.
Garden Grow Playschool's founder handpicks each educational assistant based on their unique talents and professional experiences in working with children. Genuine gratitude, compassion and exceptional nonviolent-communication skills are the guiding grounds that each member of the teaching team stems from.
Learning through play and the environment is how most children grow to understand the world we share. Providing opportunities to be a part of spaces that are both nurturing and nourishing is a focus of this centre. Developing experiences in nature and within community facilitates connection to source and society, reinforcing the belief that we are all one.

Our expectations for daycare were crazy high going in and we were not disappointed! Our daughter loved the years she spent at Garden Grow Playschool. I think part of the reason she is turning into a fine citizen is due to the great values that were reinforced there.
Trinati and Garden Grow Playschool are a dream! The team of educators is devoted, caring and reliable. My son was happy there and I always felt like he was in a loving, safe, and healthy environment. We’ve moved on to school now, and we miss this group a lot!
We feel that Trinati truly cares about our child and we are so happy that we found her.
Our daughter started attending the Playschool after having been at home full time for the first 4 years of her life. The human approach of the entire Playschool team has helped her transition to this new phase very smoothly. Trinati, Michelle, Jennifer and Mau are extremely attentive and respectful of all the children. We are very fortunate that our daughter can attend such a pleasant and loving environment.
My husband and I were so lucky to have found Trinati when we needed daycare for our two year old son Leo. The first day we met Trinati, walking into her home we knew she was right for us and our son. Her wonderful care and inspired approach taught our son all about friendship and caring for one another, about the small adventures in the big city and how to greet every day with a smile. Most days we picked Leo up, he would rather stay at Playschool and continue to play than come home - take that as a sign of how great his days were with Trinati and his Playschool friends. Trinati has become close friends of our family and we were fortunate to send our second born son Kai to Trinati's Playschool as well.
We have been with Trinati since she opened in 2014 until Spring 2019. Our 3 kids all attended. They received tremendous nurturing, patience, love and energy from the educators. The physical place is gorgeous, with a beautiful backyard, equipped with a play module. The daycare is very much art-oriented, with emphasis on respect, autonomy and friendship.
Since we left (we moved cities) we miss dearly the amazing community around the daycare. Other parents became friends to this day, and Trinati is a part of our family now.
We haven’t been able to find something that compares. It is a unique and wonderful place.
