Fantastic daycare. The staff truly cares about the children. Great curriculum and activities even for their youngest classrooms, and everyone is extremely punctual in their communication. We love AELC!
My wife and I have been so happy with the shift we made from our son's previous pre-school to AELC. The staff are so helpful and communicative, and our son loves his teachers and has had a great experience there so far.
We feel lucky to have our child at AELC. Thank you to the staff that does an amazing job loving on our kiddo! It has a family feel, where the children are encouraged to explore and grow, and its play based.
Absolutely love Augustana Early Learning! All of my 4 children have attended. The teachers and admin are wonderful and very parent friendly.
