It's really neat to start to see my thoughts and plans that were in my mind for so long finally come to fruition!  It's pretty incredible how the people have come together to help create my vision.  It's a bit surreal!  Is this actually happening?


This month, on top of the work getting done at the new location and preparing for the bulk of renovations, we've continued with our wonderful DMS Montessori Programming.  We learned about Remembrance Day and started practicing for our Christmas/Holiday concert!  Once again, we plan to do the concert virtually due to the pandemic.  So I will give a copy of the video to each parent with their child's gift!


We also continue to keep our children/families safe by doing our part during this pandemic.  Our COVID policies are being adhered to, and we are all doing great with our pre-screenings, temperature checks and frequent health updates.  Thank you to all parents who are doing a fantastic job at cooperating with us and adhering to our strict policies.


DRUM ROLL PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!  THANK YOU SO MUCH for voting DMS Montessori Preschool and Daycare Inc. BEST CHILDCARE/DAYCARE, BEST PRIVATE SCHOOL AND BEST NURSERY SCHOOL in Whitby/Oshawa Durham Region Reader's Choice Awards! 


Until next month, keep well, keep safe!

I signed the lease! I am so excited to announce our new location for January 2022 will be at 101 Simcoe Street North in Oshawa! I have some exciting plans to execute and I cannot wait to keep you posted along the way! Now enrolling for January 2022! Let the extra BUSY begin! We had a lot of fun in September! We went to the apple orchard to apple pick and support our apple theme. We noticed many different types of apples and analyzed the parts of the apple as we enjoyed eating them in class. We were able to learn in real life how the apple grows and where. We learned about the parts of the apple, apple life cycle, did apple crafts and art. We learned a song about the parts of the apple which the children love to sing every day! Of course, phonics is heavily emphasized every day as usual. The letter A was a big focus this month. My family and I would like to thank you all for your follows, your support and your community connection. Without you, growth would not be possible. Your recognition of our unique and heart-full program is not going unnoticed. We will always lead with a pure heart and soul in providing the BEST early learning experience for your child. Regards, Dina

WE ARE EXPANDING AND MOVING LOCATIONS IN JANUARY 2022! I signed a lease for a charming and unique property in central Oshawa! I am very excited and so is our DMS Montessori Preschool and Daycare Inc. community! This endeavor has been a dream of mine to achieve for most of my adult life. I always knew teaching was in my blood, but this just fulfills my ultimate goals of opening my own Montessori preschool and making a difference in our community and in the lives of many beautiful children! I want the children who’s lives I / we touch to go on and lead the most fulfilling lives possible because I provide them with the most optimal preschool experience possible to expand their horizons and open them up to the wonders of the World. The capacity for growth in all areas of development is massive at the early childhood level. All these children need is the experiences and opportunities to reach their maximum potential at this level. I know that I have made a difference in these tiny human’s lives over the last five years, both through who I am as a person, my values and genuine passion for children and their development, and through my relationship and undying desire to provide only the best to parents and children, but now I want to give that same top-quality care to more children whose parents are waiting for this new step of growth. With over 30 families on my current waiting list, the time for me to make this expansion happen is NOW! I take possession on September 1, 2021. Grand opening is slated for January 3, 2022, if all renovations and licensing preparations go according to plan over the next few months. I shall surely keep you posted on all developments so stay tuned! Contact me through my website for information about enrollment and career opportunities! Voting round is almost over but there’s still time to vote for us! Durham Reader’s Choice Awards Whitby/Oshawa, DMS Montessori Preschool and Daycare Inc. for best daycare, nursery school and private school. Help us win this again! Thank you for you support!
