My daughters were new to the daycare world and I was very apprehensive bringing them anywhere,…read moreespecially after touring some poorly supervised daycares. I wanted a place where I would know for sure that my children were supervised, where the teachers loved my girls and knew their names, likes/dislikes, personalities, where they would be fed well, and daily stimulated. My girls are little (one and two-years-old), and are often in the same room together (they have an infant room, a toddler room, and a bigger kids' room). The facility is small, but this helps because the same two people are caring for my daughters every day. My oldest daughter hates leaving and cheers when she sees that we've pulled into the parking lot. She gives kisses goodbye to all the staff she can see on the way out. The staff also helped potty-train her! I'm so happy I chose Rainbow Learning Center for my family.

What a wonderful daycare! My kids love the teachers/staff! I really appreciate the level of…read moreattention that my children get at the daycare. As a single working mother I need to have somewhere to take my kids that is reliable and affordable. I know they aren't the cheapest daycare in town but they are worth the value!! Clean all the time, even when the kids mess it up. I can tell they take lots of time to meet the high standards of cleanliness regulated by the state and also needed by the parents and kids. Especially with all the sickness that goes around daycares! Tiffany Spargo the director/owner really cares about the kids. She loves them all even when there are tons of them running around her. She has great patience with them and almost always has a smile! Love it! I also love that they feed my kids there. Takes a bit of weight off my shoulders knowing I can wake them up and get them dressed and run out the door because they can eat at daycare. And they have good meals too! The outdoors area in the back is wonderfully big and nice. Teachers are always outside to watch and it is a secured area completely fenced off. The parking lot would be the only thing I would recommend needs work. It is a wee bit small and at times not enough spots when there are more than a few parents there to pick up their kids. If you want a place to take your kids that you trust and your kids will love, know this is the place to go! Megan M.

We toured several different Montessori schools in the area when our daughter was 2 and most of them…read moreseemed decent. I will admit that during our search, we actually drove by Cloverdale Montessori the day before our appointment with them, and at first glance thought, "No, this one won't work because it's just a residential house. Seems weird." But we took our daughter to the appointment anyway and I am so happy we did. We were greeted by Miss Rose Marie (Sorry if that's spelled wrong), and for the first time in the many tours or school visits, our daughter was IMMEDIATELY engaged and focused. I was in awe. Their style of teaching had my daughter wanting to learn, understanding what she was learning, and understanding the importance of manners and proper etiquette. After being there for an hour and seeing what my daughter had learned in that short time, I was sold. That was in 2023 when my daughter began her education journey with Cloverdale Montessori and just finished their kindergarten and fun summer program three years later. I really can't say enough about this school. The owners Tim and Marie, their lead administrator/teacher Miss Carrie, and all the wonderful teachers there are some of the most caring and dedicated people you will ever meet. Their teaching style goes well beyond standard education...obviously and probably most importantly, my daughter learned SO much when it comes to reading, writing, math, science, and all the core education items that children need to excel in life, but I feel like my daughter became a better and kinder human from being around these teachers. They don't get political, they show no bias, they just teach human kindness. Oh, and I should add that once you get into the "residential house" that I initially thought wouldn't work, you find several different cozy learning areas and a huge, amazing backyard with all kinds of play equipment and fun activities. I'm sad that she has now "aged out" of Cloverdale, but am so grateful for the three years she had there. She learned so much, made so many friends, and made so many memories. I would highly recommend Cloverdale Montessori to anyone looking for their child's first school. You won't regret it.

Our daughter has been attending this school since 2020 and we love it. It has been the best school…read morefor her. The teachers are all wonderful and have been at the school for decades. You cannot get that anywhere else. My 5yo daughter says it is a "loving and kind" environment and that is why she loves it. She knows that they care about her, they are invested in her development and that they instill a respectful culture. It is truly special. The education she has gotten there is so well rounded, I cannot say enough. They implement the Montessori methodology and have gone above and beyond to implement as many learning opportunities as possible. My daughter has grown in math and reading as well as the day to day basics that children need to grow in this world. Just this week they have been growing their own spices, learning about them, grinding them and bringing them home for use. She loves it. Ms Rosemarie has been teaching her Spanish, which she loves, and Ms Carrie has been taking them on educational field trips to grow her education in the community. She looks forward to seeing Ms Jan every day, and wanted to tell her about her loose tooth. She loves Ms Amy and the activities she has put together for the outside play. I just can't say enough good things. We love all of the teachers there. If you want your child to thrive, bring them here!

I couldn't ask for a better environment for the foundation of my daughter's school years and learning. The Christian environment is important to our family, and I love that is a main focus at the school too. There are plenty of other preschools to choose from in Meridian and closer to where we live... but I will gladly make the drive to Eagle Christian preschool knowing my daughter is thriving and in such good care!!

Love the curriculum! Age appropriate and fun, vetted material that is thematic and engaging for each of my kids- including my infant. My son was more than ready for kindergarten and my daughter is tracking the same in the prek room!!! The teachers are very thoughtful, well-trained and my kids love them. It's clear they're valued, safe and nurtured here. Plus the place is clean and well lit. I don't take lightly leaving my kids with anyone and after some bad experiences at another daycare we are delighted to have found Kiddie Academy as a second family for these critical years. Also the director, Ms. Sasha and assistant director, Ms. Maci are both on top of things! I think they know every kid's name and favorite things and they always listen and act on any questions we bring up. My kids run to hug them in the lobby. It's nice to have such a responsive, friendly staff and over the years they've been consistent, supportive and helpful. Last, the value for the tuition is worth it- no hidden fees and early communication for changes when moving classes. Meals are included and well balanced! Programming includes enrichment activities like the book mobile, sports introduction and STEM education stuff. Really cool to see the different events they host too and the ways the owners give back to us families with genuine care and respect. Good people, money well spent, and the best daycare we've ever gone to! Thank you Kiddie Academy for all you do!

It truly feels like an investment in our child's development rather than just childcare. Thank you, Kiddie Academy, for putting this anxious mama heart at ease!!
