“I have a five-year-old and a two-year-old who attend CDA. They love going to school and it is evident the teachers genuinely care for them. Teacher Casi in Pre-K is a very skilled teacher who is clearly knowledgeable about children’s development. She clearly puts a lot of effort into her curriculum and is very adept at communicating with children and parents. We have noticed an incredible jump in social maturity and independence since our daughter has transferred to the Pre-K room. Our daughter turned five late in the year so we were worried she would be a bit bored spending…

“It’s always so hard to entrust your young kids to others so you can go to work. My husband and I had a couple of depressing experiences with other childcare centers, and I was beginning to worry that maybe my expectations were just too high. Then, a good friend referred us to Children’s Discovery and my whole life became so much easier. I was extremely relieved and grateful to have finally found peace of mind! My toddler loves her school and her teachers. They communicate every detail of the day, plus pictures of my kids having fun, through an app…

“When it comes to my boys, I strive to make sure they get the best I can offer them. A great deal of thought and research went into care provider options before interviewing and selecting Children’s Discovery. During the interview, follow-up, and enrollment the staff is excited to get to know you, include you and be the best they can be. I find this behavior to be top tier and well beyond their nearest competitor, New Horizon. My boys came with special nuances that required the extra mile, and Sam and Brit were more than willing to step in, stay…

“I love the staff at CDA. They take such good care of my baby boy, he talks about his teachers being his friends!!! I have peace of mind at work knowing he’s in good hands. The daycare app they have is so so convenient for me because I love to see what he’s doing and they make sure to keep it updated every day! The directors Julie and Roxy stay very up to date with their emails and information about the center and their response time is amazing! I will definitely keep him here as long as I can! Big…

“Children’s Discovery Academy is a great place for our little ones to learn! They both started out in the infant room and are now in the Pre-k and Toddler rooms. They LOVE going to school each and every day. CDA has an excellent, evolving, and engaging curriculum in each of the classrooms. They incorporate music, hands-on, sensory, responsibility activities into each day. The extracurricular activities are awesome as well and my little ones keep track of each day of the week by which activity they’ll be doing! The teachers and director, Julie, are very responsive to any questions that we…

“I highly recommend Children’s Discovery Academy – Little Canada. They are well organized in what they do and have a great curriculum for the children. Sophie enjoys going so much that even on weekends she will sometimes say, “I’m ready to go to school!”. She loves looking at her daily pictures from her classroom and is so excited telling us about her day (or whatever we can decipher at her age). Bonus points go to their chef and the rotating menu they serve to all the kids. It allows them to try new foods and at least I know she…

“So glad we found CDA. We love them and our kids love it there.  Everyone is professional, friendly and you can tell they genuinely care. The communication is great, with an easy app and photos daily. The curriculum is amazing and the kids learn so much every day. If I could give them more than 5 stars I would. ” Rachel from White Bear Lake Mother of Evie, Toddler

“Jude came to CDA when he was 18 months old, and still not walking – we were worried he’d be a butt scooter for life. He’s also naturally shy despite being in a daycare center since he was 5 months old. Within just a few weeks at CDA something just seemed to click – he felt more comfortable and started testing his boundaries more, to the point that he was walking confidently (instead of only with a walking toy) after about 3 weeks. The open and flexible feeling of CDA with just the right amount of structure made his transition…

“I’m very impressed with everything Children’s Discovery has to offer. From cleanliness to nutrition and the excellent educational curriculum. Both my daughters are very happy!” Zachary from Mahtomedi Father of Ava and Anna, Toddler and Infant

“We chose CDA after meeting Dawn and hearing her genuine passion for and love for the babies and the work she does. Our first son has moved up to the toddler room and we gladly enrolled our second son in the infant room recently. Both our boys come home with smiles on their faces every day. Our oldest tells us about the phone he has, his activities, and his friends (which includes his teachers)! The teachers have not only been wonderful to our boys, they’ve been a wonderful resource for us as new parents. They welcome all questions and often…

“All of the teachers and staff at Children’s Discovery Vadnais Heights are AMAZING. Truly from the moment you walk in the doors to dropping off/picking up your child you will feel like you are welcomed and your child is cared for in a loving and educational setting. We have two boys enrolled currently starting from the infant room and have nothing but good things to say. Both of our boys love all of their teachers and we are amazed at how fast they are learning. The lead teachers are so good at communication and working with you and your child…

“Our son has been with Children’s Discovery since an infant and we have had nothing but an exceptional experience! It is so nice being able to drop off your child and know that they are in great hands! All of the staff is wonderful! The activities they do with the kids are so much fun. Seeing how much our son has grown and learned by being at Children’s Discovery is amazing! We highly recommend this amazing daycare center!” Nicole from White Bear Lake Mother of Landon, Toddler

“We cannot rave enough about CDA, especially their safety and care through this pandemic. As a public health nurse, I was anxious to continue bringing my kids, but the staff quickly eased my nerves as they provided families with information, follow protocols, and have done everything they can to keep all in attendance safe. The staff are top-notch; always welcoming the kiddos in with a big smile. The classrooms are clean and full of educational (and fun!) materials, manipulatives, and toys. The extracurricular activities offered have been wonderful, providing our daughter with space to explore and try new things. We…

“We love this daycare! Micah has started in infants and now in Toddlers! It’s amazing to see how smart he is and what he’s learning at daycare! We love his teachers and also Lauren who gave us our first tour! Lauren made us feel so comfortable leaving Micah in their care while we’re working! If this is one of your options – just pick them!” Teresa from Stillwater Mother of Micah, Toddler

“We love CDA and are fond of their teachers. Our youngest is in the toddler classroom and she is so excited to get to school every day, and smiling every afternoon at pick-up. The teachers are communicative and personable, and we trust that our toddler is well attended to and engaged with throughout the day.” Nicole from Vadnais Heights Mother of Alice, Toddler

“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

“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

“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…

“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

“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

February 6, 2019

“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

February 1, 2019

“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…
