We've been around the block when it comes to preschools, but Creative Beginnings stopped our search…read morefor the ideal preschool. Here's why: Mrs. Wiklund and Mrs. Aronoff are top notch teachers (this comes from a very picky teacher mom) who treat the kids with love and respect, but also have clear expectations for behavior and procedures. They use gentle reminders and redirecting to get kids back on track, techniques I appreciate after witnessing more negative approaches elsewhere. There's a perfect balance of free choice time and structured learning activities. Your child will be ready for kindergarten after spending time with these pros. They also offer a couple of field trips and speakers visit the classroom often. The teacher/student ratio is also amazing! Creative Beginnings takes the cake on Schaumburg preschools.

He is our oldest, and born during COVID, so we weren't sure how we would do jumping right into a classroom environment.

I can't say enough good things about LCNS. He has grown so much in just one year and I can't wait for his little sister to be old enough to attend as well!

We are beyond grateful for this little community, thank you, LCNS!

It's cheaper in the area for a reason. I say cheaper because daycare is not cheap! Compared to…read moreother daycares in the area this was the cheapest I found, and at the time it met our needs. But my child's learning, growth and livelihood as made me change my mind. I'll pay more for peace of mind. Not even when during the registration process that I had to sign off that the facility informed me that they had done their yearly bug spraying, i kept on signing the paperwork. At least they told me they have bugs and took care of them right? No, wait until summer when your child doesn't want to wash their hands in one of the sinks due to ants/bugs going all around it. The highlight of the month is pajama day at this school. No field trips, dance/music class, foreign language...none. The carpet is cleaned yearly, but its very dirty and old. The toys and the play area in the back is very dated as well. The building needs an revamp/update.' My child has allergies and her nose was running year round being in this facility - this has change with the move to her new school. Another reason for pulling my child out was the fact that she would come home and ask me to watch TV show that she had never seen in our home. When I would ask her where she found out about this show, she would state from the phone from one of the teachers. Meaning after awhile, Frozen or Mickey Mouse Playhouse is taking care of my child. The final straw for me was with the food that my child was fed. One day in the stores, my child pointed to ramen noodles and called it chicken noodle soup. I was not understanding why she would do so - upon further probing, she informed me that ramen packets were served in her school and was called Chicken Noodle soup at school. I immediately called and spoke to one of the directors who confirmed this to be so. She informed me that yes they use Ramen Noodles packets, however that don't use the full flavor packets when making it and also add vegetables. I pulled my child out within the next week. I must say that some of the teachers are the highlight and saving grace of this school, as the directors were never really there. With the tools they were provided, the teachers tried (i still don't appreciate the watching of tv on phones). Even when I came earlier than 4 to pick up my child, the few times i did I saw them maybe twice. I can say for the 2 years we were at the school I only saw the two directors may 5 times. My child is now at Children's Land, which just opened literally down the street from One Leap Ahead. Prior to starting my child at One Leap, I was interested in getting her into this school based on the education programs, field trips, menu and cleanliness of the facility - however there was no opening in their Wheeling location. I am so happy that a new site opened right by us. It has been such a great move for our family!

This facility only fell on our radar through word of mouth referral of a phenomenal teacher. The…read morecenter is quietly tucked away just off the noisy hustle of Lake and Milwaukee Avenues. What we found after touring was an entire team of fabulous teachers at One Leap Ahead (OLA). After touring numerous facilities prior to making a decision we decided to go with OLA. In truth I can't say that we saw something wrong in the way the other centers were operated. Many of the sites were newer with more modern amenities. However, what we discovered with OLA set them apart from the others which helped make our choice easier. Our assessment was rooted firmly in the quality of care our child would receive. This is EXACTLY what we found at this site. The first telltale for me in the quality of the program and care was the number of professional families that are educators and in the health care field like myself. The teachers at this center are long-term employees; even assistants have a lengthy history with OLA. The owners and Directors are all former teachers at the center. This all translated to me as a love for the job they perform and it resonates in the way it's operated. Everyone in the facility is CPR certified including the Chef! The teachers are regularly in-serviced and educated in their field. Families supply "community" supplies once a year, keeping tuition competitively low for the area. Most of the items are easily picked up on a Costco or Target run. I have never been asked for another dollar outside of registration and regular tuition. Yet I've received countless projects including, photos, tie-dyed tees and the like throughout the year. No surprise fees! The teachers get even the tiniest fingers and toes involved in art and sensory discovery. I really appreciate the stream of activities to keep my little guy busy and the detailed notes I receive at the end of each day. The teachers keep parents informed on each little milestone reached on their watch; a true blessing for a working mother. They are able to seamlessly accommodate the individual needs of each child yet keep the group intact. While teachers have assigned classrooms they are all cross-trained in the rituals of other age-groups. They have the teamwork-thing down! There is indescribable warmth in this center you feel the moment you walk into the front door. I did not smell soiled nappies or hear background noise of constant crying. I'm not saying that the children don't cry but the frequency and duration are short lived. Children are a priority at OLA and their emotional needs are addressed accordingly. It's comforting to be able to leave your little one with a team of professionals and rest easy knowing he is not only in capable hands but in loving ones as well!

The school is also very communicative with parents - I really love how they use the Tadpoles app. We can easily message teachers and get updates on what is going on at the school.

They also have a nice-sized gym, a huge plus during bad-weather days. And we were so impressed with how Concordia handled COVID and kept our kid and her classmates safe. During our three years, turnover was very low and she never had a teacher leave. Strongly recommended!
