My son has been attending Kid-Doodles for almost 2 years. We have had a wonderful experience with…read morethis Learning Center. The owner and teachers have been excellent - working with us and catering to our son's needs every day since he was an infant. We have been treated like family here, and it is very clear that their hearts are in the right place (with the kids!). The teachers in each class are always doing new, exciting learning activities and crafts with the kids. I have been impressed with how much my son has learned there. Tuition is very competitive (rates are lower than any other daycare we visited). We are thrilled with Kid-Doodles and I highly recommend this Learning Center!

Our son has been a student at House at Pooh Corner for a year now and I can say that this is a…read morespecial school. There are many things I like about this school--the love and patience shown by the teachers, the intentional community-building, the inclusive atmosphere--but what really sets it apart to me is thought and care that goes into the design of the educational experience. I am a teacher, and I think a lot about how an educator's vision affects how students learn. My experience has been that many daycare centers either lack any educational vision at all, or else teach a "canned" curriculum devised by an institution outside the school. Not so at Pooh Corner. The educational director works with the teachers to develop a curriculum that is appropriate for THESE SPECIFIC KIDS and reflects their interests. They do special projects based on whatever the kids are excited about--my son's class did a project on shoes, and then another on "gravity" (things going up and falling down). The kids get exposure to lots of different kinds of learning experiences. They have a weekly science class that involves gardening, composting, and bugs. This is not just "experiential" science either--they collect data on their plants (I don't think they call it that, but that's what it is) and compare the ones growing inside and outside! There are options like Spanish class and dance class as well. This is all in the context of lots of free play with a great outdoor playspace, as well as time for physical skills, reading, letters, and numbers. However even the letters and numbers are incorporated thoughtfully into the things that the kids are interested in. The school works as a team with families on big changes like potty training--it made it so easy for us, I think he went from diapers to underpants in two days. They also encourage kids to do as much as possible by themselves, which helps them to be independent.

After a very disappointing experience at another daycare, I can confidently say that House at Pooh…read moreCorner is everything you want and can expect from a daycare. We send our current toddler there, and we plan to send our future infant there as well. (And we plan to have them grow through each class within the center.) The daycare is well staffed and has floating staff, so each room is always equipped with the minimum (often more than) number staff required for each age group. This helps the staff morale, as it seems that no one is over or underworked. The staff is friendly, knowledgable and truly cares about the children and the community. And many staff members have been there for many years (some are former students of Pooh Corner). Notable Pros: -Staff members are ALWAYS "on the floor". They are never sitting in a chair and on cell phones (unfortunately, many other daycares accept this). Staff are actively involved and playing with and teaching the children. -Lesson plans are sent through email weekly. Other emails are sent with pictures of events and other things that the community is involved in. -There is a strong community mentality. Pooh Corner is a welcoming community with many volunteer events, art shows, and social events (at the center and at parents' homes). -Everybody knows everyone else. Because of the movement of staff floaters and the community mentality, everyone knows my wife, my daughter and me, when I walk in (from the director, to the pre-school teachers, to all of my daughter's teachers in the toddler room). This truly makes me feel like my daughter is in safe and caring hands. -Outdoor play everyday (weather permitting). They have a wonderful playground and do things like water play in the summer. -They have a focus on sustainable practices and organic materials. They welcome cloth diapers provide organic sunscreen and bug spray during the spring/summer.

The Montessori mixed age classrooms allow the children to progress as they grow. Last year my daughter would get help from the older children and now I see how proud she is to be able to help the younger ones. The teachers are amazing at guiding the children as they do their "work" of playing and learning. I love that they go outside even when the weather is not perfect. They have a large playground area and a beautiful natural environment. Once your child begins kindergarten, they have a full-day program available as well as a very popular afternoon enrichment for the kids who attend a morning half-day program. Highly recommend!

It is not your typical "daycare"-children learn from a young age while having fun and enjoying it! Students are given an opportunity to show off their artistic/music/dance/other skills at a performance which is organized twice a year, along with art shows and many other events. Our son attends school with a smile everyday looking forward to the fun curriculum teachers instruct in his classes. This place is filled with professionals who know how to care for and educate children. Stages Academy is truly a hidden Gem! Highly recommend!

They have a very strong curriculum which includes music classes, Head Start Sports, and computer classes. Weekly lesson plans are emailed to the parents keeping us well informed! The atmosphere is very loving and nurturing. The administration and staff are very professional and friendly, and the facility is neat and clean. The outside play ground is fabulous and quite large! There are many staff members who have been on staff for over 10 years, which to me, speaks for itself! The center has an open door policy for parents, and parents are encouraged to take advantage of this policy. Parents are also encouraged to sign up to come in during the day and participate in their child's classroom activities, such as reading a book to the class. I can not say enough good things about this center and the center's program and would highly recommend Christ Lutheran Child Care Center to anyone who is looking for somewhere to send their child (6 weeks-pre-K)!
