Willowbrae Academy is the only place I toured, but the best daycare I think I could have found for my son. I believe it is exactly what my family needed. The staff are friendly, caring, attentive and communicative with my family. They are always happy to see him everyday and have always made us feel welcome. They treat everyone who walk through the doors like family. They make meals in house for all the children, and they are healthy and nutritious. When my son was starting solids they cared enough to ask if they should be giving him purees or table food which shows how much they care about what I want for my child.
As any parent is, I was reluctant to leave my child in the hands of someone I did not know, but the staff at Willowbrae made me feel so comfortable with their friendliness, attention to my son, and the updates with pictures I received on his first day which made me feel so much more relaxed. Their facility is clean, and for small children like mine, they make sure to sanitize all the toys he and his friends play with to prevent the spread of germs and illnesses.
Since my son started in May, he has grown so much. When he first started attending he could barely sit himself up, and just two and a half months into being at Willowbrae he is sitting, crawling, standing up and even trying to walk with assistance and he's only 8 months old.
The classrooms are filled with so many fun things to do and so much to learn. I love that they integrate sign language for communication with my 8 month old, music, painting and even time outside in the appropriate weather. My son has thrived since starting at Willowbrae and I continue to see his growth and curiosity continue every day. He is always happy to get into his classroom and see his friends and have fun during the day.
Willowbrae is the best daycare I could have chosen for my son. The staff is kind and patient and always have something new for him to learn or do. They communicate well with me for anything that my son may need as well as asking what we would like to see with his growth and development in the classroom and they are very considerate of what I ask or think he may need. They do not ignore my requests and make me feel comfortable with my son in their care.
If you are thinking of looking at Willowbrae for your child's needs I couldn't recommend any where better. read more
