Following the abuse, our oldest was extremely resistant to us needing to leave her at any daycare due to the trauma of her previous experiences. Ms. Laura was beyond patient and understanding and over the course of the several weeks helped my daughter heal and grow past her experience. I cannot begin to describe how grateful we are; Laura has been so compassionate and caring to our two girls, I cannot recommend her enough. We are moving our girls to a larger daycare to take advantage of Colorado's universal pre-k program, otherwise we would be staying with Laura for another year until Kindergarten started.

My son was in Laura's care from the time he was 2 until he went to kindergarten. We had a number of…read morereally scary daycare experiences prior to finding Laura, and we could not have been luckier to find her!!! Laura provides kind, attentive, and affordable childcare in a safe, pleasant, and clean environment. I always knew my son was safe and happy in her care, and even though he was sad when I would leave, I always picked him up to see a huge smile on his face from getting to play and do learning activities all day. Never once did anything scary or concerning happen like I had experienced with other providers, and her in-home care gave my son (and me) the feeling of being cared for by a family member rather than dropping him off to a room of 20 kids with a constant turn over in staff. Another huge plus was that he was sick MUCH less often than in a larger daycare setting. Laura is fully licensed and follows all rules and guidelines to a T, and her care was also reimbursable through submitting receipts to my work's FSA (if you have an FSA option for healthcare). I can't recommend Laura highly enough! She is excellent and if she has a spot open for your little, you should take it!!

From…read morethe very beginning, Jane took the time to understand our needs, values, and what kind of person would truly be a beautiful fit, not just for our daughter, but for our whole household dynamic. But what really sets Jane and the whole agency apart is how supportive they've been after the placement. They've helped us think through how to create a sustainable, long-term working relationship with our nanny, everything from pay structure to benefits to professional development. Their guidance has been invaluable in making sure we're not only hiring someone wonderful, but also supporting her in a way that makes her want to stay. We couldn't be happier and can't recommend CO Nanny highly enough. I echo all of the reviews speaking to the deep sense of caring and professionalism.

This is a wonderful daycare with kind teachers and staff. Our son is enrolled in the infant class…read moreand he has learned soooo much! (Ms. Kisty is AMAZING!) They serve a variety of meals/snacks throughout the day, sing songs, read books, teach movements like clapping, waving, nodding, etc. and even have an infant-only play area outside so your child still gets fresh air throughout the week. Having our son here has made me not question working full-time, because I know he is having a blast and getting to learn more than he could at home by also being able to develop socially with all his friends. I am sooooo thankful I found this treasure of a daycare. It's also a super convenient location being within a 2-minute walk from our pediatrician (and others if you choose). I will be sad to leave it, but know it will just open space for more families that need quality care for their child. BONUS: They also offer date nights once a month from 6-11pm where you only pay $20 for your child to be cared for and fed. Definitely a better deal than trying to find a babysitter!

As first time parents we were very nervous about how he/we would adjust, but the teachers & admins happily answered all of our questions & special requests in order to make us feel as comfortable as possible. It did not take long to see how extremely lucky we are to have Mrs. Maria taking care of our boy. I honestly can not say enough good things about her! She took so much time & genuine care to help our son adjust to the new environment. She goes above & beyond every day to communicate through the app and sends the best pictures throughout the day. It is clear that our son absolutely adores her and we do too!

Over the years we've noticed that the set up continually grows, changes and evolves, so to keep it very interesting for the little ones! Amy runs a great program for the children and we can only say positive things about this child care establishment. As a parent, understanding the mixed emotions that come with providing care for our children, our babies(!), it is a tremendous relief knowing your kids are in capable hands.

My son…read more(21 months) is greeted with a warm welcome every morning and wakes up saying the name of one of one of the directors because he wants to go to school. I have watched the directors make tough decisions and they have always done so in the best interest of the families. We are grateful for the way they handled COVID, ensuring that parents were a part of the re-opening decision and have taken the necessary precautions by making changes to ensure the safety and health of our children. I have referred friends and family members to them. The teachers also love my son. I originally chose Great Escape because they seemed to be the only place taking a September birthday at age one (part time). I am grateful for their care and flexibility. This summer they have had elementary care available too in which they have brought in special activities such as putt putt golf and oversized blocks for construction building contests.

I highly recommend Great Escape for your pre-school child especially if you have two working parents who need a lot of flexibility in your child's care.

My child no longer wanted to go there each morning, and a new administrator (that had just started working there a very short time ago) made it clear that she had no interest in getting to know or work with families, or in figuring out how to help children feel comfortable and succeed in their environment (or maybe she didn't have the skills or tools to actually know how to do this, but either way it was unacceptable). Administrative turnover is common (3 times in under 2 years). Way too expensive for these types of issues and we are happy to have found another setting that actually communicates proactively and runs smoothly with caring teachers.

They have changed directors…read moretoo many times, to the point where the school has had sickness circulating, and we were not informed about it at all. (The center was better before Covid. The director was better but now the place is not well run.) We've noticed that they are very efficient at billing you every week, and they make sure to charge you when you decide to leave the center. Make sure you inform them ahead of time, even though they bill you on a weekly basis. My child is now very happy in another school where we pay less. She loves her teacher, and she's eager to go to the new school next day right after we pull her out of New Horizon. So, please consider finding another care center!
