A Letter of Appreciation from Jaimie & Adrian

From the moment we joined University Settlement’s Afterschool Program, it has been a wonderful experience for our family. As working parents, afterschool care is a non-negotiable, and we are thrilled that this isn’t just a place to spend time until evening. Instead, it offers rich opportunities for learning, growth, and fun. The structured yet flexible approach encourages our child to make new connections, solve problems, and grow in confidence.

What sets this program apart are the creative activities that keep my child engaged and excited, even after a long day of school. From arts and crafts to innovative science projects, there’s always something new to spark her imagination. The weekly swimming lessons are a highlight! My daughter’s love for the water has blossomed thanks to the enthusiastic lifeguard team, while I appreciate them for teaching essential water safety skills.

The staff are truly exceptional – they understand kids and create an environment that my daughter eagerly anticipates each day. Their reliability is unmatched; I always know she is in safe hands, even when crossing busy streets in downtown Toronto.

Thank you, University Settlement, for being such an integral part of our community!
