Today, our daughter is in the summer camp program and our son will be starting in the kindergarten class soon. Needless to say we've had a long, wonderful, run. Many of the teachers have been there since we arrived. Our son loves walking through the school - all of the staff saying hello to him. They really feel like a part of the family. And shouldn't they - they've been helping to raise our children and prepare them for everything that comes next. The front office staff has always listened to any concerns we've had (our son has special learning needs) and we've been very grateful they've helped us work through a few things - making us feel like they're truly invested in his success and development. Always, but especially during COVID, they've gone to great lengths to clean and create a safe environment, where kids can still be kids, but parents can rest assured precautions are in place.

Our daughter spent a year in the one year old room and flourished. The teachers are truly gifted and made her feel instantly at home. Every day that she went to school, she was excited to learn and see Miss Cindy. She loved the experience and we loved knowing that she was in great hands. If you can secure a spot with them, you will not be disappointed.

I recently found out that my grandson was kicked out of this daycare. He is autistic and can be…read moresensitive to people and their personalities. Him being kicked out of daycare isn't what bothers me as much as the staff talking bad about a little 5-year-old boy who has autism. Why not get some people to work with children who have autism instead of ousting them like they are some little criminals. They are children who need someone that has extra patience to teach them how to communicate in productive ways. I get it, many autistic kids can become violent and act out. But when I read into this, it has to do with the fact that they get frustrated they aren't able to communicate with others because most autistic children are non-verbal. I'm completely annoyed that staff at daycares are talking bad about little children instead of finding ways to make them feel safe and helping them with the barriers they are facing. If I lived in Colorado I would definitely be at the director's door and reporting some their staff to the state. Maybe they need to watch some cameras or get some cameras and see that staff are on their phones a lot and not paying attention to the children. My poor grandson doesn't need that kind of treatment from staff when he already faces barriers with being a non-verbal autistic child. I'm so upset in hearing about it all.

It is reasonably priced and they put an emphasis on all of the teachers being qualified (with an early childhood education degree) to be in their roles. Our son is in Ms. Terrys class and she is absolutely wonderful. He loves going to school and is growing and developing so much! The school has a big emphasis on Catholic education and incorporates Catechisis of the Good Shepard into their learning. They have fun fundraising events for the school where parents can get to know each other. The school knows how to throw a party! Ms. Diana and her team have it together! We trust them and not only do we feel safe sending our son there, but we feel like it is helping him thrive!

I know a great learning environment when I see one and this place is a gem! So happy we found it and that our little princess gets to experience this as her first 'school' experience. She will treasure her time at Happy Valley forever.

The teachers have 80 children come in and out of their school on a weekly basis. I was asked to not speak during parent teacher conference bc there was not enough time to get thru everthing.

I am also heard another teacher threaten thus little girl that she couldn't have her blanket unless she stopped crying. They are little that's so traumatizing.

Not to say that in order for it to be top-rated it must be faith-based, but this place just happens to be both. It also helps to know that this place is competitively priced, even cheaper than some of the 'run of the mill' daycare centers. My wife did a price check with some of the more visible daycare places and this was the lowest in price.

As a former Warren Tech student, it saddens me to say that I firmly believe allowing our child to…read moreattend was likely the worst decision we have made as parents. One with far-reaching & long-lasting ramifications that far surpass any benefit of one school year spent on this campus. The experience here took a historically outgoing and engaged student, with very well thought out plans for the future that wanted to utilize the course here as a stepping stone to an already chosen future career path and derailed it. An independent and more mature learning experience is expected from Warren Tech, but the complete and utter lack supervision, intelligence or guidance by the administration at this campus is unsurpassed. It has lead to a long, threatening journey for our child/family and turned an open, good-natured and gregarious student into to one who now struggles to trust anyone or find a path. We should have pulled our student out of their program the first semester. Hindsight is 20-20....
