Why parents trust us

Sending love shouldn't be complicated.

You can't always be there. But the right care package, on the right day, says everything you wish you could.

📦

Curated by our team

Every package is hand-packed by our team — students themselves. We pick what we know works on a tough week.

📅

Scheduled to the day

Pick a delivery date — birthday, exam week, the day after move-in. We make sure it arrives when it matters most.

★★★★★

"My daughter is in her first year at McGill and was struggling during midterms. The exam care package arrived on the morning of her hardest day. She cried — happy tears, this time. Worth every penny."

Sarah M.Montréal · daughter at McGill
★★★★★

"We're across the country in BC and our son is at U of T. The monthly subscription is the best thing we've signed up for. He texts us a photo every time it arrives. We've never seen him smile so much in October."

David & Linh T.Vancouver · son at U of T
★★★★★

"I built a custom box for my daughter's birthday — she's vegan and has very specific tastes. The team helped me swap items via email. It arrived perfect. She sent it to her group chat. I am, apparently, the cool mom now."

Mona K.Calgary · daughter at Western
Questions parents ask

Everything you need to know.

Yes. We ship to every Canadian university and college residence we know of (150+ in our system). At checkout, pick your student's residence from the dropdown and we'll route it to the right mail room. For some schools — McGill, UVic, U of A, NSCC, and a few others — packages are routed through the campus bookstore for pickup. We'll handle the logistics.
Pick a "deliver by" date at checkout. We pack and ship to land on or just before that date — usually 3-5 business days transit via Canada Post Expedited. For high-volume weeks (exam season, holidays), we recommend ordering 7-10 days ahead.
Absolutely — and we'd love that. Add your message at checkout (up to 240 characters) and we'll handwrite it on a card and tuck it inside the box. No charge, no automation, no "Dear <first_name>" awkwardness.
Pick a tier (Basic $30 / Premium $50 / Deluxe $75) and a delivery date each month. We curate a fresh themed box every month — September is "settling in," October is "midterms survival," December is "finals + holidays," and so on. Cancel anytime in your account — no commitment, no fees.
Send us a note before you order or in the gift message field. We can swap items for vegan, gluten-free, nut-free, halal, or kosher alternatives at no extra charge. Email contactus@mydormstore.ca with any specific needs.
Yes — at checkout, just enter the address. Off-campus apartments, family homes, hospitals, and grad housing all work. Shipping rates may vary based on location.
