I was hesitant to another daycare as we had a terrible experience with a different daycare in the area & some abuse going on, but my kids have thrived here! The staff have been very patient with my son since leaving the previous daycare & he has learned a ton here. He's a completely different kid - in the best way! The staff are friendly & helpful whenever you have questions or concerns. Both my son & daughter enjoy it here & I do believe they are safe! There has been some staff turnover, but I think that's fairly common at any learning center.

I have had all three of my kids attend Aspen Creek and I have loved having them there. They are really flexible with great hours, which is great since I'm a teacher. More importantly, I have truly felt like they love and care for my kids. All of the staff members know them by name, and they were always excited to go in each day. They have always been great about teaching them new things and getting them ready for kindergarten. I also love that they feed them a healthy lunch and two snacks each day, so I don't have to pack anything! I can not imagine having my kids anywhere else!

We have enjoyed our kiddos’ time at ALELC - our preschooler was there over the summer and grew so much during his time with Ms. Doreen. Our little has become comfortable with her teachers and we appreciate the attentiveness of her care teams as she has moved up rooms. We are glad to have found this early learning center!

We have been sending our daughter to Aspen Creek Academy for almost 2 years. She is consistently learning new things and we love that the school is faith based. The staff at ACA is incredible! They treat you like family and are extremely loving and compassionate. I would highly recommend Aspen Creek Academy and can't imagine sending our children anywhere else!
