Families who know Marwa

From families and colleagues who worked with Marwa across over 20 years in early childhood education, shared with their permission. Mindful Steps Childcare itself opens in September 2026.

“Marwa creates a warm, safe, and welcoming environment where children can feel comfortable, cared for, and happy. Her experience and genuine love for working with children really show in the way she handles different personalities, needs, and situations. If you’re looking for a loving and trustworthy home daycare, I would definitely recommend her! ❤️ ”
— Ramneek, Oakville
“I’ve known Ms. Marwa for over three years, and she has cared for both of my children. She first cared for my daughter, who had separation anxiety, and made her feel safe and comfortable. Later, my son joined her home daycare, and he truly seems to see it as a second home. He is always happy and confident there. We’re very grateful to have had her in our children’s lives. ”
— Yvette, Oakville
“We are so grateful to have found such a wonderful daycare for our daughter. Leaving our 3-month-old baby for the first time was not easy, but knowing she was in Marwa’s safe, caring, and loving hands gave us so much peace of mind. ”
— Ramo, Oakville
“We absolutely love this daycare! ❤️ He is always happy, well cared for, and treated with so much love. It gives us such peace of mind knowing he’s in a safe and caring home environment. We’re so grateful! Highly recommend! ”

“We feel so lucky to have found Marwa. My son instantly felt at home with her, and she went above and beyond in making him feel loved, happy, and cared for. She is such a genuinely kind and caring person, and I always felt completely at ease knowing he was with her. Even the sweet letter she wrote him when he left brought me to tears. We will always be so grateful for her and would wholeheartedly recommend her! ”
