Harmony Hill provides one of the finest living experiences imaginable for seniors in Whitby-Oshawa. The environment facilitates happiness and (indeed) harmony throughout where staff love working and seniors love living here. Take a tour to understand for yourself and to permanently change your mind about what living in a seniors' home is like.
You'll love it at Taunton Mills if you miss that old small town feeling of yesteryear and the easy friendliness that fostered. There's also a wide variety of activities to choose from, including exercising with friends, reading in the library, horseshoes, movie nights, or just hanging out on the patio in the summer. Onsite pampering includes a beauty salon and barber shop.
I have only been a part of the Harmony Hill family for a short time and already feel a huge part of it….the reason for that is the incredible staff and residents that make you feel at home the minute you take over your ‘new home’. I enjoy being part of the volunteer team, helping in any way we can..I’m so glad I chose Harmony Hill, and if you decide to check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
My father moved in to Harmony Hill in the fall of 2023 and he loves it. The suites are modern and suitable for people who use mobility aids such as wheelchairs, scooters and walkers. Lots of activities every day so he always has something to look forward to. He has also been enjoying the convenience of nightly dinners in the dining hall and has said the food is great.
My mom moved into Harmony Hill three months ago. She is so happy! From our first meeting with Nancy to the assessment with Tammy and Raezel my mom has been treated with respect, care and compassion. Every member of the staff is incredible, so friendly and eager to help. Harmony Hill is beautifully appointed and so welcoming. It is the perfect environment for seniors to enjoy and thrive. My mom considers it a privilege and a pleasure to call Harmony Hill “home.”
My Dad moved into Harmony Hill in July 2023. After living in his own home for over 60 years he was a little apprehensive about moving. The staff at Harmony Hill are very caring, helpful and friendly and gave him the support he needed to make a successful transition. My Dad is happy at Harmony Hill and I know he is receiving the daily care and support he needs. We are both very pleased that we chose Harmony Hill.
My wife and I moved her mom (86) to Harmony Hill at the end of August/2023. At the very onset, we knew we were dealing with caring and competent professionals. Our initial contact was with Serena. She took the time to walk us through the process of moving my mother-in-law in details and was always available to answer the questions we had. After moving in, Tammy and her Team helped my mother-in-law to settle in - always checking on her and always making sure that she was comfortable. I can say that my mother-in-law's life has changed since then! She is surrounded by great people, caring staff, and she is now living life in a much more fulfilling way. She's already made great friends there, she always comments on the amazing staff at Harmony Hill and the fact that there is always something interesting to do. She loves her 1-bedroom apartment and all amenities around the building. Recently, she fell while walking in a park and ended up getting a few stitches on her face. As soon as she was back to her home at Harmony Hill, the nurse went to check on her and made sure that she had everything she needed. We are super happy that she is now a Harmony Hill resident and we feel very confident that it was the right place for her to enjoy this phase of her life. As of now we couldn't be any happier with the move. We'd definitely recommend Harmony Hill!
My dad received fabulous care from all the staff - especially his Taunton Mills family in the Claremont Neighbourhood. The lines of communication were always open and we knew of any and all issues - and that gave us peace of mind. Thank you for everything you did for him including making him as comfortable as possible in his last days. And thank you for always making sure he got his "ice cream."
Our mother has been a retirement resident for 14 years and lived in an independent suite on the 6th floor of the north building for all of those years. She recently had a fall and she decided to move to the first floor. The help and guidance that we received from the staff was so amazing. They were all so very kind and considerate and answered all of our questions, always returning phone calls and doing whatever they could to make the move seamless. The suite was all set up for our mother upon her return. She was greeted by many staff members and was made to feel so welcome. We are very thankful for all of the assistance.
My parents moved into an Independent Living Suite in the South Tower back in 2020; my Mom was moved into the Dryden neighbourhood in long-term-care in December of 2021 due to her Alzheimer's. I give credit to the staff as I spent a fair bit of time there and I had the opportunity to see how challenging it could be - for the most part they were all great. My Mom became ill in February 2023 and ended up in palliative care in her room, and was treated with kindness and compassion during her final days. I give special credit to Diane McLean - the neighbourhood coordinator of Dryden as she was always there when we needed her which meant more than she could know.
The staff here are amazing. [My grandma] has lived here for years now with dementia. They give her outstanding care and you can easily see the love that they have for all of the residents here. By far the best retirement home I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. If I could give them 6 stars, I would. ❤❤❤❤
They are wonderful my husband got excellent care. Staff are the best.

Our Village is a proud part of a Canadian family tradition of community building that goes back 70 years. The first Schlegel family home became the foundation of what Schlegel Villages is today. Here at The Village of Taunton Mills, we offer several lifestyle options to meet a variety of needs. Our continuum of care allows for residents to age with us in place as their needs change. The residents we serve come from a range of backgrounds that thread together the fabric of our community, and while we know resident-centredness is a term that many lean on these days, we truly do focus on each individual’s wishes to guide our approach to service. Our Signature Programs help us focus on the individuality of each resident we serve. Our LIVING in My Today dementia care philosophy, for example, was developed by our team and our partners alongside people with lived experience. This provides our team the opportunity to learn exactly what it means to support a person who is experiencing the changing perceptions of dementia. We also celebrate the Wisdom of the Elder as another Signature Program, thanks to the inspiration of our founder Ron Schlegel. Ron once said: “The greatest untapped resource in Canada, if not the world, is the collective wisdom of our elders,” and we honour the individual and collective wisdom of those we serve in ways large and small.

Harmony Hill is a community within a larger very active community of Oshawa. Centrally and conveniently located in the north end of the city with access to a wide variety of shopping, restaurants and community centres while still maintaining a small town feel with views of the countryside to the east and Lake Ontario to the south. A walk across the street and you are able to see the latest movies or a short drive and you are on the 401 heading into Toronto or maybe to the theatre to catch a live performance in Port Hope. Oshawa offers some exceptional festivals and cultural events throughout the year that are right in our backyard. Bowmanville to the east is a small town with big activity from festivals to parades, shopping and dining.
Located near shopping, restaurants, banks.
