As a first time parent the thought of choosing a daycare for your child can be a little nerve-wracking. We called the Academy for Little Children after being a highly recommended facility from a close friend, and went on a wonderful tour with the director. All of the rooms have a warm, welcoming environment and the teachers are wonderful. The rooms are divided by appropriate ages to encourage growth ( i.e. 3-12 months, 12-18 months, 18-24 months, etc.) This structure has been wonderful for our son; the teachers really work with each individual student and their development. The Academy is always clean and has a high-tech safety system as well. I couldn't have asked for a better place for my son to go for the past two years and counting. You can tell that the employees are all highly trained in early childhood education. ALC is truly the best!

I tried to put my daughter in this daycare I spoke to the manager there everything seemed good, I took a zoom tour everything looked perfect was really happy about placing my daughter there filled out the forms. Sent them in. Called them said they would get back to me. Said they would email me. Never responded when I called them they said they were low staffed. So I waited another week. No response. To me that’s just a red flag itself. If you can’t even return a phone call or email cause your that low staffed how are you going to take care of my child. Why did you even have me take a zoom tour if you weren’t going to respond. Waste of my time. Not professional.

My kids attend the after school program and summer camp as well. They're always happy to go, sad to leave; and have made so many friends there. It's like a little family 🙏
