“The first tour I had of CDA was amazing and knew this was the place I wanted my children to be the staff was so welcoming. My children have been going to CDA for over 9 years and the entire time has been amazing. My kids have learned so much during their years at CDA from sign language in the infant room, potty training in toddlers all the way to being completely prepared to start Kindergarden with all the skills they needed. The care and education that the staff at CDA has provided for my children is something that is…

“The staff in the infant room are fantastic. They take time to get to know each individual infant and their needs. They are also great at communicating and keeping parents in the loop. I appreciate their kindness, patience and all the care they provide our daughter each day!” Alyssa from Shoreview Mother of Rosalie, Infant

“We love CDA! The staff is always very friendly and communicative. Our son is excited every day and usually runs to the door before we can even get his coat off. Our son has a few food allergies and they are very accommodating to this. I never worry if he is safe or having a good time while he is there. Plus they always get the cutest pictures of him during the day!” Hannah from Roseville Mother of Deklan, Infant

“Our children have been at CDA since they were babies and every classroom has been wonderful! You can tell the teachers truly care about the children and go above and beyond to plan special activities for the classes. Our children have learned so much and we love being surprised by the new things they tell us each day. We have also loved how long many of the teachers have been there and it’s been so nice to have both kids have the same teachers throughout the years. We highly recommend CDA!” Emily from Shoreview Mother of Lucius and Wesley, Preschooler…

“I love my new school! It makes me so happy! That was the first sentence out of my son’s mouth as I was loading him up into our car to go home after his first day at Children’s Discoveries. He is just starting out in Preschool, and I could not believe what I heard! A. Because I’ve never heard him describe his previous school and daycare in that way before and B. He has always had a very hard time transitioning to new environments that it was an amazing shock to my system that he enjoyed his day so much….

“We have been with Children’s Discovery vadnais heights since our son was 3 months old. He is just about to turn 3, and loves to go on our 3 day a week schedule. The teachers are amazing and do such a good job with our son and other kids. And the office staff is also amazing, especially every time something comes up and we need to add an extra day during the week. Also, the other activities Children’s Discovery offers during the day are amazing….soccer shots, music classes, its so great for them to have during the day and I…

“We have 3 kids at CDA and our experience has been nothing but positive with the level of care and development the team provides. Our 4yr old just aced his early childhood tests ahead of kindergarten admission. The staff is friendly, competent, well trained and experienced. The center’s management team is reasonable and accommodating and has done a good job retaining their talent. Tuition rates are reasonable and comparable to other centers as far as the level of service they provide. CDA is considered one of the top institutions in the area.” Roger from White Bear Lake

“We have been so pleased with Micah’s success at CDA! He started in Infant – moved to Toddler – is now in Preschool and at the end of March 2023 will move to Pre-K! We couldn’t be more thrilled with all teachers he has worked with thus far. He is more than ready for Pre-k thanks to the fabulous Pre-school staff! We love the daily updates on Daily Connect! I’d be lost without those. I grew up in the daycare world – when I did my tour and talked to Lauren and was told she also grew up in the…

“Fox is a pretty shy kid so I was really nervous about dropping him off on his first day of daycare at the Vadnais Heights location. Now I can’t even get him to say good-bye to me in the mornings! He struts right in, gives his teachers a hug, and finds himself a spot in the quiet reading area. I know he feels safe here and my heart is happy knowing he is loved and cared for every day. Fox is also speech-delayed and since starting in Colleen’s classroom in January, his vocalizations have sky-rocketed. He has even learned how…

“We had toured two other daycare centers before coming to CDA. I brought my mom with me that day and we knew immediately that we were going to pick CDA. It was so clean and well laid out and there was happiness and laughter coming from each room. We also loved the indoor gym area. Our son has played many days in that gym and it’s a life saver on those poor weather days! This was fairly easy for us. CDA was better, in our first impressions, than the other two facilities we toured. We felt at home and knew…

“Everything about this daycare is well run. They respond to phone calls and emails almost immediately and follow through on any questions. Most of the main teachers have been there for a long time (always a good sign) and know your kid intimately. They always have theme weeks with learning activities and extra in house fun activities, as well as the opportunity to add on extra things like music or size during the work day. Our son enjoys going to school and has so much fun, not to mention learns a lot!” Tess from Maplewood Mother of Evan, Preschooler

“We have had nothing but a great experience at Children’s Discovery! We have Miss Jennifer for our teacher and our daughter adores her! You can see how much she truly cares for the kiddos in her classroom! Our daughter has learned so much, from following a schedule, holding a pencil, making new friends and even trying new foods! We are not disappointed with our decision in sending our daughter to Children’s Discovery and neither will you!” Ashley from Lino Lakes Mother of Natalia, Preschooler

“We love CDA for their nurturing teachers. My toddler shouts their teachers’ names with excitement every morning – what a heartwarming sight!!! We are thrilled to know she is taken care of by warm, friendly, and kind providers! “

“I am so happy with all the staff and the environment at Children’s Discovery. My son went through the Pre-K program and he learned so much! I’m so thankful for all the wonderful teachers. The facility is always clean and safe.” Ryan from St. Paul Father of Thomas, School-Ager

“We really enjoy this daycare, all the great teachers, daily and changing curriculum, and all the things she is taught and comes home and we discover she can do. Our daughter is learning so much and we would highly recommend this daycare to others. The updates through the app are great too.” Ben from Little Canada Father of Linden, Toddler

“Our two-year-old son is excited to go to school every day to see his friends and teachers. Their curriculum is fun and educational, and they have excellent extracurriculars to enroll kids in! They have fun programs every so often like DJ dance parties and magic shows that our son absolutely loves! We know when we send Graham to CDA he’s not just being “babysat”; he’s learning, exercising, socializing, and developing under the care of really great teachers, every day.” Lauren from Maplewood Mother of Graham, Toddler

“This location is great with my child. They keep me in the loop very well with the app and make me feel comfortable with Aaron being there. Aaron gets along with the staff and other children. Potty training has been smooth and the staff has been great about keeping him on track. Thank you for the great work! I love this center!” Victoria from St. Paul Mother of Aaron, Toddler

“Children’s Discovery Academy has been an excellent choice for our childcare! My son is currently in the Infant classroom and it’s been an awesome experience so far. You can tell they care about the wellbeing of each and every child there. I appreciate all the precautions they’ve taken to minimize exposure to seasonal illnesses, as well as COVID, and the effort they put in to keep everyone safe and healthy. They also have a great app that updates what your child is doing throughout the day in real time, so I can see if my son is eating, taking a…

“My son fondly called Zeek is a two-year-old who is confused with what language to use as our household speak two different languages, but with him being enrolled here, his diction and clarity of choice of language has increased tremendously, he is very happy here and is always ready to go out of the door. Most importantly I love the curriculum the school offers, it’s an all round education for my little hero. Good job to the administration and the teachers of Children’s discovery. Thank you for all you do.” Sarah from Little Canada Mother of Ezekiel, Toddler

“CDA is the cream of the crop when it comes to early childhood educational facilities! They have a well rounded approach to social, emotional, and educational development all while having a TON of fun! They have themes each week that our child looks forward to and informative emails with tips and tricks to navigate age appropriate stepping stones we are climbing as families. CDA also offers multiple opportunities for additional enrichment classes and the children get plenty of time in the gym and outdoors! Our child LOVES art and comes home with a new project every day. We love CDA…

“My daughter attended CDA since she was an infant as is now enrolling in the school age summer program. She “tried it out” for a few days during the school year when her kindergarten wasn’t in session and LOVED it. She was so excited to have some time to work on arts/crafts of her choosing (bracelets and crafts and raved about the “cooking craft” and “art craft.” Our daughter was able to read when she started kindergarten and teacher Casi (Pre-K) deserves much of the credit for that. Casi ran that classroom just like a kindergarten and couldn’t have done…

“Both our daughters have attended CDA from infancy. There’s no one else we’d trust more than CDA. Our kids have shown amazing emotional and academic growth in their care. They show their care and commitment to every kid in their care every day.” Rachel from White Bear Township Mother of Evie, Preschooler

“Our son has attended CDA since he was 3 months old and we’ve been so thankful for the time he’s spent here. The teachers are so caring and professional and we feel so at ease dropping Jack off there each day. He loves his teachers and classmates and has grown and developed so much during his time at CDA. The past two years have been challenging but CDA has been one constant that we can always rely on. We cannot recommend CDA enough and have been so happy with our decision. We knew it was the right place from our…
