The kids LOVE going to daycare every day, and we trust the staff immensely. Our kids experience regular enrichment experiences that keep learning fun — everything from in-house science days, water days and bounce house weeks in the summer, new songs, yoga and...

The teachers are super kind, dedicated, and they really care about them and their development. My children are immerse in a safe and happy environment that has enabled them to learn and develop social skills. Most recently, preschool has implemented a behavioral...

Rachel E. -Maple Grove

My son will be going to Kindergarten this fall, and attended full day preschool last year— so I was really looking for a center that would continue to challenge him academically and socially. This was the perfect fit.

Joseph R. -Minnetonka
