More than a School.

Beamish Academy welcomes families into a warm, close-knit community where connections grow naturally. From family barbecues and Mother’s and Father’s Day celebrations to the Terry Fox Run and other joyful gatherings, parents and children share meaningful moments and build lasting friendships. Each year, every child also receives a professional individual and class photo to celebrate their growth and remember the special times spent with their Beamish family.

  • My child who is just 14 months loves Beamish Academy and the teachers are loving, attentive and make sure she feels safe. They keep us updated on what’s happening every few hours with photographs. My Child loves Ms. Lina and Ms. Anakena and Ms. Deborah.

  • Our son is now at Beamish for a year and I have nothing but strong positive comments on this daycare. Everything starts with the leadership team and on this, Steve and Deborah are just amazing. They have been able to hire an incredibility professional team which has one goal: providing an environment were the kids could grow and learn but with all the safety which is sometimes so much missing in other daycare.
