As a working professional, I need a reliable, loving, sensible provider that will ensure my daughter's safety and happiness. In Callie's Childcare, this is all in place. The positive emphasis on manners, health, and friendship is beautiful. She allows for free play time for children to discover how to play and provides structure and education. My daughter's social skills and her educational skills have blossomed while in Callie's care. She is learning manners, patience, and is helpful. At 16 months she knows how to clean up and how to put her items away. She is using art tools and enjoys songs and games. She eats a healthy, balanced diet and I love that Callie exposes her to a variety of healthy, home cooked foods. Callie also balances inside and outside play. I love that the children get fresh air and time outside to play and explore. Callie is very in tune with kids, enjoys her work and her genuine interest and enthusiasm shines through in a brilliant way. We see our daughter blossoming and thriving. She asks for "Miss Callie" and often starts her day giving her huge hugs. I know my daughter wants to be there and that she feels loved. That is so important. Callie has helped us learn routines and as a new mother she helps support my questions and concerns! My daughter comes home happy, confident and with her bright mind expanded a little more each day. As a parent I also appreciate Callie's thoughtful communication. We get a daily update on our daughter's day which includes meals, behavior, naps and activities. She shares photos and videos throughout the week which really lifts my heart up when I am away from my daughter. She is quick to communicate about monthly activities and schedules. She always responds thoughtfully to my questions and is flexible when my family is traveling or needs to make adjustments to our schedule. Without hesitation, I completely recommend Callie's Childcare. This is not just a safe place to entrust your child so you can work--it is way more than that! Callie's Childcare is positively impacting not just my daughter's life, but my life too.

Our older kid often doesn't want to come home at the end of the day! The teachers are so kind and caring and patient (with us and the kids) every morning they seem genuinely excited to see them and we get pictures and updates every day. We love that our kids are learning a second language at such a young age too. It is a little more expensive than some of the other options we considered, but they have a lot of other benefits (like included lunch for the big kid and cloth diapers for the baby). And we feel like it's incredibly valuable to get the benefits of language immersion.

You can really feel how much the teachers care about their students, which is the most important thing I look for in a daycare.

She loved all the teachers, made some great friends, and was always happy to be there. We have had our 2nd child (now nearly 2 years old) there since he was 3 months old and it has been equally great. It is clear the teachers truly care about him and take amazingly good care of him. I also love that we receive updates and pictures throughout the day, which is always nice to see when we're working all day. I would recommend Cradle Club to anyone, they have been simply wonderful.

I've had my children at the Cradle Club for the past 5 years, and the staff have never ceased to amaze me with their empathy, flexibility, and love. The hardest task of any parent is deciding who you trust with your children, and you can definitely trust the Cradle Club!

We have moved quite a bit for my husband's job, so we have seen many daycares/preschools. We wanted…read moreto enroll our 3.5 yo son in a preschool that actually focused on education and social development. We could not be happier with EMAS! My son has been a student here for about a month now. They are very attentive to both my son and the parents. Communication is fabulous. We get frequent emails and the teachers talk to me all the time. The director checks in too, asking if I have concerns, how the adjustment is going, etc. my son has already learned so much and he looks forward to going to school every day. He does five half days and he ends up missing the afternoon craft. The teacher overheard him telling me he didn't have the art work from the previous day hanging on the wall, and she said she'd do the craft with him the next morning. I figured although she meant well, there was no way she'd have time to do a one in one craft with my son. Amazingly, she did! My son was so happy and I am beyond impressed with her dedication to making sure my son felt included. I can't say enough. My son loves the food, he gets plenty of play time and lots of education. He's happy and so am I.

In 2021, my husband and I were excited to close the chapter of needing day care in our lives as our…read morethree children were old enough not to need it. Then in 2022 we were blessed with our "bonus" baby. With a degree of reluctance, we opted to enroll her in the same daycare our three oldest children attended. This decision came with a touch of hesitation, considering the significant changes that have taken place at the small, intimate center we once knew and adored. That center did not seem to know the direction it wanted to take and there was some toxicity with one of the owners. (Never once was I concerned about the care she received in the rooms by the staff.) During the year she was there, the boundaries with one of the owners felt chaotic and unpredictable. It was time to cut ties with a center we had been at over 10 years and began looking for a new daycare for our daughter to attend. We were fortunate that Goddard-Lakeville had availability for our daughter to attend. The very first thing we noticed was the level of safety/security at the center. There is no entering the building unless you are welcomed in by a staff member. I have seen grandparents needing to show their ID's prior to being allowed in the building. In today's day, the level of security is incredibly comforting. The second most prominent feature is the teachers' level of involvement. Right from the tour, we observed how the teachers were fully engaged with the children, not lingering on the sidelines with their phones or engaged in conversations amongst themselves. Thirdly, the communication is outstanding. There's no ambiguity regarding the center's operations - it's clear, concise, and consistent. The policies are fair- they do not change based on the most recent parent's complaint. The extent of our daughter's learning journey is astounding. We're immensely thankful for the age-appropriate curriculum. As advocates of education and evidence-based approaches, Goddard truly stands out as exceptional! Finally, the teachers are fantastic! They genuinely invest in the well-being of the children under their guidance. They understand my daughter as a unique individual and cater to her specific needs. Based on our experience with two prominent daycares in the Lakeville area, I wholeheartedly endorse Goddard-Lakeville. The owners cultivate a community that balances professionalism and healthy boundaries while providing a nurturing environment for children to flourish. The teachers are top notch! Any family that decides to invest in the care at Goddard-Lakeville, will not be disappointed!

Her safety and well-being, along with those of the staff, is always a high priority for the owners. Our daughter is greeted with a smile each day, and eagerly awaits going to school every day. We are so thankful for the care and attention that has been given to her, and that she now has a whole community of trusted people other than her parents who have her best interest in mind. It's true that it takes a village to raise kids, and this is a great one to be a part of!
