“We have two daughters enrolled at Children’s Discovery Academy, in the preschool classroom and the toddler classroom. When our older daughter moved up to preschool this summer we were so excited to see her development with letters and numbers. Our younger daughter has really enjoyed having more structure in the toddler room and all of the fun activities she gets to take part in. We love the weekly newsletters and all of the updates and photos throughout the day!” Elissa from Little Canada Mother of Linden, Preschooler

“Our daughter started at CDA in the toddler room and is now in the pre-K room. We have been impressed with all of her teachers along the way. She loves going to school and playing with her friends. The curriculum changes to a new theme each week and it keeps our daughter engaged and excited. The classrooms are clean and well equipped with toys and activities. The food served is a good combination of kid friendly and nutritious. She really enjoys all of her teachers in the pre-k room- I can’t speak highly enough of all of them. Our child…

“Our preschooler has been attending CDA Little Canada for several years, and our baby started there a few months ago. Having now had kids in the infant, toddler, and preschool rooms, we only have positive things to say about CDA. I know my kids will be cared for, have fun, and learn new things every day. Dropping them off into that kind of excellent environment is absolutely priceless, and I’m really grateful we found this place!” Sara from Little Canada Mother of Marty and Winnie, Infant and Preschool

“Our older daughter has been at CDA for a year and a half now. She’s made friends, learned so much, and loves the teachers. Just moved a little further into Shoreview but still staying at CDA because our daughter and family loves the center.” Victor from Shoreview Father of Astra, Preschool

“I recommend this school to all parents. My daughter has been attending for 2 years. The teachers make an effort to create a relationship with my daughter. They have great communication with me on behavior issues or learning struggles. I really appreciate being able to speak with teachers at pick up and they give me a snap shot of how my daughter’s day went. You can see how much the teachers care about all the students. Extremely happy with the choice of this school.” Erin from Hugo Mother of Evie, Toddler

“We have had kids attending CDA for four years and they have made wonderful friends and ADORE their teachers. We have been so impressed with the programming/curriculum and are super grateful that our kids have such kind and patient people caring for and teaching them. I recommend CDA without hesitation, especially after hearing some of the experiences our friends have had at other daycares. Bottom line is that our kids are safe and happy, so it’s been the right decision and a good investment.” Aubrey from Little Canada Mother of Callan and Wesley, Toddler and Pre-Kindergarten

“We had the unfortunate experience of going though 3 different child care providers before our child was 18 months old. Children’s Discovery has been a huge blessing for our childcare needs. We have been extremely satisfied with the care and communication our child is being provided. A couple of standout items at Children’s discovery have been; the indoor play area (child doesn’t want to leave!), healthy meals/snacks, 3-5 art projects per week, communication is top notch, and the teachers are wonderful. The facility is great, always very clean and well organized.” Ryan from Roseville Father of Remy, Toddler

“We’ve been enrolled at CDA for over 2 years now and have one daughter in the toddler room and one daughter in the infant room. Both girls love going to “school” each day! We really enjoy all of the infant and toddler room teachers. They are all so friendly and we can tell how much they care about their students. The layout of the building is also great, and so much easier and fun for the kids to navigate then some of the other daycare centers we had toured before choosing CDA. When researching daycare centers with our first daughter,…

“As first time parents, we were very nervous to send our 6th month old to daycare. We toured several centers before selecting Children’s Discovery. We felt like the staff at Children’s was the most engaged and truly enjoyed the kids. My daughter loves being there, seeing all the other kids, and playing with the teachers. She is often happily parading down the hall in the baby wagon when I pick her up. (It is wagon with 6 baby seats on it) We are very happy we selected CDA and are looking forward to all the extra programs they offer as…

“Our little daughter is in the Toddler A classroom and adores it. Every morning, she’s so excited to go to school. She can’t stop talking about all the fun and educational activities she’s been doing, like reading books, singing songs, and playing in the gym. Her latest favorite activity is the bubble dance party, which she can’t get enough of! We’re so grateful for the amazing teachers in the Toddler A classroom, who are all kind, dedicated, and passionate about teaching. They make our daughter feel so loved and valued, and we couldn’t ask for a better learning environment for…

“It’s a wonderful place to be. My kid is so excited to attend school every morning when we dropped her off. She loves all her teachers. She’s non-stop talking about all the great activities she had at school. Read books, artworks, play at gym. Bubble dance party is her favorite thing. The teachers helped us so much with potty training as well. Sending out second one to Children’s discovery too.” Molly from Roseville Mother of Astra, Toddler

“Our daughter started at Children’s Discovery in the Preschool room and is now in the Pre-K room, and we couldn’t be happier. She was previously enrolled in another childcare center, and our experience with CDA is 100% better. The staff is professional and has a great curriculum, our daughter has learned so much and loves going every day. Our daughter has several food allergies, and they take great care of her, and we feel comfortable sending her every day! Thank you!” Kira from Roseville Mother of Aubrey, Pre-Kindergartener

“I knew the moment I found Childrens Discovery that I wanted my kids there! The environment and location are perfect- tucked away into a wooded area so it feels safe and serene while still close enough to parks, field trips, etc. I love that they offer enrichment courses for students, especially since we don’t always have time to participate in sports, classes, etc on the weekends. Both my girls love their teachers and have made fantastic friends during their time at CDA!” Kate from Saint Paul Mother of Hazel and Blair, Toddler and Preschooler

“CDA Little Canada is AMAZING! We were referred to CDA through a family member whose son attend CDA and graduated their program. We decided to enroll our son after hearing this family member rave about how amazing the staff were and how much their son loved going to CDA. We were first time parents, and this was our second go at finding suitable childcare for our son. Furthermore, our son was diagnosed with ASD which made us very reluctant to leave him in the care of anyone else, but this place and the people who work here are amazing. Seeing…

“Our son started in the toddler room at 16 months old and was warmly welcomed from the first day. His teachers have always shown him so much love and care. They always give him their attention and know exactly how to comfort him if he is upset or not feeling great. He’s greeted by the wonderful teachers with a big smile and open arms everyday. We love hearing about all the activities and lessons they do each day. It’s fun to ask our son about that week’s theme and what he’s learning each day. The regular updates and photos throughout…

“Absolutely love CDA! The teachers take time to connect with each child. My daughter looks forward to going to school and is excited to be there. I’ve noticed HUGE improvements in her speech and how she plays with others. The teachers communicate with me about how her days go, I really appreciate it. Extremely happy with my choice of CDA.” Erin from Little Canada Mother of Everly, Toddler

“Children’s Discovery Center came highly recommended by a family member and we couldn’t agree more. Children’s Discovery has far exceeded my expectations for a early childhood learning center. As a parent to a little one with special learning needs, I was concerned the staff and the program would not be able to work with my son but they have been super attentive, understanding, and accommodating in working with him. My husband and I have been thoroughly impressed with how professional the staff in Toddler A are and their ability to help our son learn and grow. Special shout out to…

“Childrens discovery has been a home away from home for our little one. We had the privilege to keep her home with family for the 1st year and so we were very apprehensive about starting outside childcare. Since my 1st tour and interactions with them I knew this was the place for my child. All the staff are amazing. Teacher Lauren worked with us before our 1st day and helped us have a easy transition. Teacher Norah and teacher Drew are some of the best and kindest care providers I have met. They truly show they care about all the…

“My oldest son is in the pre kindergarten class but has been at children’s discovery since he was a toddler and I’m so happy that after trying so many different daycares we found children’s discovery. I also have my youngest son in the infant classroom. All the teachers at children’s discovery really work hard at teaching the kids and have such unique ways of making learning fun. All the staff really care about each child and it really shows. I couldn’t ask for a more better place to care for my children then children’s discovery.” Mariah from Little Canada Mother…

“Our daughter has been going to CDA since she was 12 weeks old. We have loved all the teachers in the infant room and now the toddler room! The app updates are super nice and reassuring to receive. At first, we loved the updates just to make sure she was safe and having a good day, now we love to see what she’s learning about and all the activities she does throughout the day. Communication with the teachers is great and they respect my parenting decisions. I started working part time at work, and actually felt guilty cutting back my…

“We are so grateful for the peace of mind we get knowing that our child is well cared for every day at Children’s Discovery. Some special highlights of CDA that we haven’t seen at many other centers are: 1) a large indoor playroom so the kids stay moving in the winter; 2) weekly themes (like ‘ocean animals’ or ‘going to the dentist’) to coordinate daily activities; 3) use of an app so we get frequent updates on our kid’s activities (and photos a few times a week!); and 4) a cook on staff that provides snacks and diverse meals throughout…

March 17, 2023

“We were very intentional and mindful about the childcare center we chose for our daughter knowing that the staff there would be partners in raising our child. At CDA, we found caring providers whose parenting philosophies mirrored our own. Together we’re going through major milestones such as potty training, learning to share, and managing big emotions. The team in Toddler A creates an engaging curriculum each week that supports Sophie’s developmental needs. She loves showing off her art from school and singing the songs that she learned. In an industry that is struggling to retain employees, we’ve seen very little…

“This is our second child to attend CDA, and we’ve really enjoyed the care here. The staff is friendly, helpful, and truly invest in the kids. There is a great variety of activities and curriculum, and overall we just feel the staff love our kids and take great care of them. Highly recommend!” Arielle from Little Canada Mother of Issac, Toddler

“I love this daycare. All their weeks are planned around one topic. Their teachers are very friendly and caring. My son is treated very well and I feel good leaving him there for the day. Would recommend.” Marycha from St. Paul Mother of Ryder, Toddler

“I’m three times lucky, to have my children be embraced and nurtured by the wholesome childcare professionals at Children’s Discovery Academy! We have experienced top tier care from all classrooms over the past six years. I can go to work and know my children are safe and happy at CDA as they navigate through all the social, emotional, and physical aspects of learning to be a kid. Anytime I have raised a question, concern, or request, I have been met with a listening ear and a response that has always led me to believe the staff has best intentions and…
