Parent Testimonials

"The staff are wonderful! We started at Children's Discovery seven years ago. Many staff members who were working at the center when we started are still there. There is very little staff turnover and that says a lot about the organization.

The staff are patient, compassionate, flexible and are respected by the kids and parents-they are great role models for kids of all ages. They have gentle, but firm discipline techniques and work with the parents. The teachers are liked and trusted so much, many are asked by parents to babysit for them evenings and weekends."

"All 3 of our daughters began attending Children's Discovery Academy the day I returned to work following maternity leave (our oldest is now 8 and still attends the school's wonderful after school and summer programs.) The thought of leaving your precious child in someone else's care is stressful for any parent. But the wonderful teachers and staff made the transition to daycare easy & enjoyable.

We have always felt confident that our children are in a caring, loving, environment that encourages creativity, participation and learning. The teachers are not only excellent caretakers but also great advisors to parents on topics related to their children. The calm, fun & loving approach embraced by the teachers and staff at Children's Discovery is truly unique and greatly appreciated. It brings me great peace of mind to know my children are so well cared for when I am at work."

27 years ago we brought our son to daycare at Children's Discovery. He learned so much there and went on to being enrolled in gifted programs. As it goes, he moved to California.

22 years later, HIS son came to live with us. Dustyn is in his last year of Children's Discovery in the school age program. He started in prekindergarten at that time.

Once again, Children's Discovery has provided a safe, nurturing peaceful daycare that also has taught these children not only 'book-learning' but 'social learning'. The staff are incredibly tuned into what each child needs and encourages them to grow.

Meals are fabulous, field trips are wonderful, parent involvement is encouraged, the administration is accommodating. I totally recommend Children's Discovery to anyone that wants superb daycare!

Our daughter has attended Children's Discovery since she was 2. She is now 9. We love it there. She attended the private kindergarten as well. It was wonderful. We chose it because of the class ratio, the cost, the curriculum and the environment. It met all of our needs. We've actually had her at both facilities and each has their own benefits.

Now in the school age room, she is bused back and forth to her elementary school during the school year and it works out perfectly. And the program during the summer months is fantastic, especially with all the field trips. Our daughter hasn't gone back to school in the fall starting over. They are continually learning and exploring fun topics. It has been a fantastic experience and we hope to continue it.

We have been with Children's Discovery for 7 years. We have looked into less expensive child care options but nothing compares to the quality Children's Discovery offers. Few centers have an indoor gym, which I think is important to have during those winter months and rainy days.
