“I love the children’s Discovery in Vadnais Heights. My girls are learning a lots each day, my girls are always happy being there, the teachers are so great and caring. I am happy dropping my children off with no worries. Thanks to the great teacher’s at children’s Discovery in Vadnais Heights.” Boyennoh from St. Paul Mother of Tayelulu and Kehinde, Pre-K
“We recently started our first child in the Children’s Discovery Academy infant room and couldn’t be happier with our choice. We settled on Children’s Discovery Academy after the daycare search process because we could tell the teachers had real genuine passion and love for helping children learn and watching them grow! All of the teachers helped us navigate our anxieties those first few weeks with great insight, communication and enthusiasm for seeing our son! We get their early each day and even the cook loves seeing our son smile each morning when he arrives! We are very thankful we found…
“The staff at Children’s Discovery have been incredible. They have helped my son come out of his shell and I am continually amazed at what they teach him. I will never forget the first time he signed the word more as he was eating in his highchair. I had no idea he could do that!” Jennifer from Little Canada Mother of Finnegan, Young Toddler
“My son has been attending children’s discovery since he was 2 1/2. He started in the toddler room and has moved up through preschool and now pre-K. We have had an excellent experience with everyone from the front desk staff to teachers to kitchen staff to aids. My son has always felt comfortable in the children’s discovery environment. It has been delightful to watch him grow and develop over the years- socially, emotionally and academically. The learning that takes place in the classroom is structured yet creative. He has enjoyed enrichment programs offered as well as regular field trips. The…
“I am a live in auntie and have watched Lizzie’s development with CDA over 4 years as well as the new start of baby Evie this winter. I am also a former preschool teacher and professional nanny so have experienced many children in a variety of childcare situations, and currently a professor of anthropology. CDA does an outstanding job. Well trained, professional caregivers and teachers will care and challenge your child every step of the way while maintaining fun and excitement. Their commitment to always improving diversity and teaching the kids to be loving, thoughtful, respectful friends is remarkable. Lizzie…
“Ever since we started our children at CDA Little Canada, we have been impressed with the level of care, attention, dedication, and professionalism of the entire team. The curriculum has shown immediately impact. The parent communication is stellar! We know what are kids are learning, get frequent updates through app, and know our kids are constantly well cared for! Highly recommend CDA to anyone!” Rich from Roseville Father of Emma, Young Toddler
“The staff at Children’s Discovery have gone above and beyond to accommodate for my child’s specific needs. When struggling through some difficult medical issues, I was fully supported and they went above and beyond to make sure his care and comfort were a top priority. He does not only receive, hugs, love, and learning. He gets real time experience with teaching sharing, patience and communication skills. The infant team is amazing!” Amy from White Bear Lake Mother of Callen, Infant
“When I first signed up for CDA I was extremely nervous. My son was 8 months and it was our first time with a daycare. CDA did a great job easing both my son and I into the program. They did a great job with him! Although our stay was short lived, I’d go back to CDA in a heart beat!” Mackenzie from White Bear Lake Mother of Devion, Infant
“We couldn’t be more pleased with CDA. Maddie loves her teachers. Teacher Amberley clearly works hard to develop a curriculum that makes learning fun and engaging. She also puts a lot of effort into the conferences she holds for parents. I really enjoyed hearing about Maddie’s progress from a teacher who is so knowledgeable about children’s development. I am constantly amazed at the things my little girl is learning. They have taught her so many preliteracy skills (e.g., identifying letters by sound). Maddie loves to tell me about the different classroom jobs (“weather helper”, “line leader”). The teachers at CDA…
“When my wife and I had our first kid 2 years ago and started the process in looking for daycare’s I felt overwhelmed. With so many options and choices for us it was hard to know where to start. But after visiting multiple other daycare’s in the area and comparing them to CDA the choice was easy. CDA was right for us and we have not regretted it since. My son is learning so much and is excited to see his teachers and friends every morning. If you are overwhelmed or unsure of who to choose for your childcare I…
“We love Children’s Discovery and the fun, caring staff! We were anxious to start a new daycare when we moved to the area as we so loved our previous center. But our son immediately warmed to his new teachers and friends in his room. The teachers are so loving and truly care for the kids, and our son loves when he gets to go to school to see them. He enjoys all of the fun and unique activities each week, and we enjoy getting regular updates on what the class is doing and what my son is learning. We are…
“The staff at childrens Discovery are amazing ! I am never with doubt or worry when dropping my child off for 8 hours each day ! My daily connect app is constantly updated keeping me in the loop of her daily activities, including with at least 2 pictures of my child throughout the day. My daughter enjoys going everyday, the environment is super kid friendly and inviting ! I would highly suggest this place to anyone!”
“We have nothing but good things to say about Childrens discovery. Every teacher and assistant has been wonderful the past 5 years. Zach’s made some great friends and enjoys going to Pre K (most days).” Tiffany from Hugo Mother of Zachary, Pre-K
“My wife and I feel incredibly blessed to have found this daycare. Our son has now been going to Discovery Academy for a little under one year and within that time his development skills have blossomed exponentially! We are so happy with our choice and look forward to being a part of Discovery Academy for many years to come!” Matt from Vadnais Heights Father of Carter, Toddler
“We thoroughly researched local childcare options prior to the birth of our son. CDA was the only place that we found to have high enough standards that gave us confidence to entrust them with the care of our infant. Then, when we toured the facility and met staff, we were sold. We know our son is being given great care and have already seen the developmental advancements he has made since starting at CDA. Not to mention how happy and content he is when we do drop-off/pick-up. You can tell it’s a place he feels comfortable and that’s priceless.” Courtney…
“Flynn started at CDA at 15 months old. He attends 2 full days a week. Within the first week, he had started picking up sign language! His language skills have grown so much faster since starting at CDA, and he’s also learned skills in listening, cleaning up, using an open top cup, sharing, and much much more. The staff all seem to adore him and he loves them. I’m so glad to have a daycare that I trust to be providing an enriching environment for him!” Bethany from Ramsey Mother of Flynn, Young Toddler
“My son loves going to CDA for the fun activities, playing with friends and attention/love shown by the teachers. He’s learning something new everyday and is proud to tell me about it. I love sending him to CDA because it’s a clean and safe environment, and the communication can’t be beat. I look forward to reading the Daily Connect report form his teachers and appreciate the weekly emails talking about the upcoming theme and what the kids will be learning. Very well run center from top to bottom.” Dena from Vadnais Heights Mother of Bennett, Preschool
“We enrolled our son in Young Toddlers at the Little Canada location this past August and have so appreciated the loving support, activities, and learning that he has gained from his time at Children’s Discovery each week. Kristy and all of the teachers are so wonderful with him. They have helped him come out of his shell and explore new words, skills, and activities as he has grown into toddlerhood. My husband and I both feel so comfortable leaving our son at Children’s Discovery. He is happy at the beginning and end of the day and, by the pictures we…
“Our daughter is really flourishing in the toddler room – she is so excited to go every morning, and play and learn. They keep us updated with everything she is doing through the day, and she loves all of her teachers and the friends she has made. We cannot say enough good things about the school and how much everyone cares about the kids, and we definitely recommend them to all families!” Laura from Little Canada Mother of Louisa, Toddler
“When my husband and I toured the Children’s Discovery Academy, we immediately knew this facility would be the top on our list. The space is very warm and welcoming. We loved that the hallways and room have a classroom feel. When taking into consideration cost, space, accessibility, and staff, it was an easy final choice to sign up with Children’s Discovery. Being a first time parent, I was so incredibly nervous once the day arrived to drop off our son. This nervousness subsided quickly when we saw the quality of care provided. Having the Daily Connect app available was very…
“I love everything about this daycare! The staff is beyond sweet and caring for my little boy! Jackson was a little behind with his speech due to him having so many ear infections when he was younger, and the teachers have helped him improve so much on his talking! Every time he comes home he is saying something new 🙂 The office ladies are super friendly/welcoming and do an excellent job with explaining every detail when it comes to tuition. Will be recommending this daycare to all my mom friends!” Meranda from Little Canada Mother of Jackson, Toddler
“Caleb has loved being a part of Children’s Discovery and we’ve enjoyed the relationship with his teachers. Caleb always seems happy during each day and very tired from all the fun he has. The education plans put together by Colleen are wonderful and we can see the progress in his everyday life. I’d recommend Children’s to anyone looking for a place to place their child in daycare. We looked other places because we moved from Vadnais Heights but it’s worth the drive and when we have our second child in the future we’ll be sending him/her here as well. Looking…
“We have been to three different daycare centers with our kiddos and we had the most amazing experience at Children’s Discovery. The real difference was the people. Each person working there makes a huge effort to connect and play with each individual infant. Everyone there really wants to be there and truly cares. Its not an institutional feel at all, its much more like a second home. We would highly recommend the infant program to anyone!” Kristina from North Oaks Mother of Charlie, Infant
“We live in Green Bay, 4 hours away from our grandson Will and his parents, our daughter Samantha and her husband Bob. They’re both professional researchers, and they vetted CDA carefully before enrolling him there. We signed up for the daily connect and read it eagerly every day! It really helps us feel close to Will despite not being able to see him physically more than every few weeks. The attention to detail is wonderful, the pictures are absolutely precious, and the commentary is both funny and informative. It’s obvious to us that Will is in very good hands, surrounded…
“My husband and I are so impressed with Children’s Discovery! Our daughter looks forward to attending and keeps very busy throughout the day. The kids are always learning something new, a lot of time is reserved for playing (especially outside play during the warm months). The toddlers get to experience onsite Field trips that align with their learning theme of the week. So far she has experienced magician, a baker and a zoologist that brought in some birds for dinosaur week-how cool is that! We also appreciate the well rounded meals that are served, along with numerous snacks. I’m so…
