We have been at BDLC for several months now and have loved it! Our 18 month old (who has the worst…read morekind of stranger danger instincts) absolutely loves his teachers and always comes home clean and happy. The teachers keep open communication with us, and always inform us if anything seems out of the ordinary about his behavior --- this has always proceeded mild sickness, so it was nice having the head's up! I also really appreciate the vegetarian menu provided for the kids. It has a wide variety of foods that include plenty of protein sources, fresh fruits/veggies, and grains. We're not vegetarian at home, so I am glad that he is exposed to this approach to food at school. He's also healthier than ever and growing perfectly according to our pediatrician, so it's obvious he's getting all the nutrition he needs :) Another thing I am particularly impressed with is the lesson plans provided by the teachers each month. They look creative and fun, but the best part is that I can tell that my kiddo actually learns from their activities! He always comes home having learned new skills, words, and games - he's even trying to count already! As much as I wish I could be at home 24/7 teaching him all these things, I am so comforted to know that he is in good hands at BDLC.

Our son has been coming to BDLC for several months now and we have been happy with their care. His…read moreteachers are calm and responsible and their outdoor space is really idyllic, the nicest outdoor space I've seen at a daycare in Bloomington. Even though our son is at the age where separation anxiety is strong, he has been happy there, and we are grateful for that. Our previous daycare experience was with a kind of "boutique" place (very expensive), and they were great, however we personally appreciate that at BDLC they're a little more relaxed--a little more of a family vibe. We also like the other families in the room and it was so cute how they had an open house for all of us to get to meet each other since our kids will be growing up together.

Avoid this place like the PLAGUE!!!!! Because that is what your child will come down with. Took my…read morechild here and he was sick for 2 solid months. They don't keep kids out who are snotty, coughing, whatever as long as they don't have an official temperature. GROSS. And there are waaaaay too many kids per adult. 12-14 kids per 2 adults. Not enough attn and care can possibly be given individually to your child with this ratio. Not to mention this daycare had a outbreak of Hand, foot and mouth disease and we were NOT informed by them of this. We kept sending our son here and guess what? He came down with H,F,M,D. We have had to take him to the doctor 6 times for various things since he started going. Ear infections, cough and cold and then HFMD. Omg, this place should be shut down. If you care about your kids, find them another provider that prides itself on good hygiene and has the common courtesy to inform you of a outbreak of the grossest thing I've ever seen. He puked at first and then had diarrhea for 2 weeks. They apologized but that wasn't enough for me. If further action could be taken besides removing him, believe me it would've been done. unfortunately it seems daycares in this state are not well regulated and only the most serious complaints are investigated by the state cps.

I love the life lessons and importance of taking care of self and others she learns daily and brings home with her.

The owners and teachers really care about child development, and it shows in the way they interact with the kids. They also focus on serving a wide variety of nutritious and mostly organic food. It is a daycare I trust and whose mission I believe in. They have also created a strong community of parents, teachers, and kids with picnics, fundraisers, a garage sale, and the like. The location just north of downtown is really convenient. I highly recommend them.

Hi all - wanted to share for parents looking for care. From our experience, stay away from…read moreKinderCare on Sare road. If it works, great. But just a word of warning. We did the 2 week drop-in at KinderCare over this holiday break, and our 17 month old has had two incidents, back to back days, where he hit his head. The first time he "slipped" out of their lap, while being rocked to sleep (??). We got told at pick up. No messages or calls. The second, they put him on a bench "next to the teacher" and he fell off. We did get a message about this one. We will never be going back and I worry about their ability to care for young children. Felt the need to share for others.

Our son has been going to her for almost 4 months now and he loves it; it is so hard to get him to leave her house. I love the openness and transparency with Sandra.

She is loving, consistent, and really engages with the kids; from teaching, to arts and crafts, playing outside, and dancing. And best of all she teaches and encourages manners and respect! She also makes the kids nutritious and healthy meals/snacks. We absolutely love Sandra and highly recommend her.

The staff is caring, talented, professional, and flat out rock when it comes to education. Lia and her fine team keep the children busy, fed well, challenged, and most importantly at ease. A comfortable child has the brain radar in full motion picking up every little life detail. I am convinced that there is no better pre-school in Bloomington/Monroe County. I suspect that my daughter will be so advanced in her learning that adjusting to 1st grade will be a breeze.
