Clubhouse Academy has become our village with our 6 1/2 month old. The smile my son gives them all in the morning says it all. He loves it and I appreciate the care and attention he gets from all the teachers including the directors. It’s affordable, flexible with your schedule and honestly they have been getting better pictures of him lately than I have lol. Thank you Clubhouse Academy!
Our son went to Clubhouse Academy for 1 year when he was 2 and we had such a phenomenal experience. We had previously gone to a daycare in Boulder that was great, but Michelle and the entire staff at Clubhouse raised the bar for what we would expect from a daycare. Most notably, they actually had a curriculum and taught the kids things, in addition to all the fun arts and crafts and other activities they do. I loved getting the updates throughout the day in the app telling us what they were learning that day and what they did so I could ask my son about it that evening. Also, breakfast is provided which makes it much easier to get out of the door and on with the day. The entire staff is so kind and caring and I was always at ease leaving my son with them. They truly care about each kid and do an excellent job with planning and executing the curriculum, activities, arts and crafts, outside time, etc. The woman who runs things, Michelle, is so attentive and on point with her management of Clubhouse and I'm grateful she's a part of our community.
Our son thrived at Clubhouse Academy. As a small, local daycare, it provided an incredibly nurturing and intimate environment for him to grow and learn. His class size was perfect, allowing for plenty of one-on-one attention from the wonderful teachers. We were impressed by the genuine care and patience the staff showed our son. He was always excited to go to daycare, and we could see his confidence and social skills blossoming. The daily updates with photos on the app were invaluable, giving us a window into his day. He especially loved the water/splash days and it was wonderful to see the videos of him having so much fun. We loved getting his artwork. Ms. Lacey and the other teachers always had creative and cute ideas for their artwork. It was such a difficult decision when a spot opened up at his sister's daycare several months ago, but in the end, we decided to keep him at Clubhouse Academy until he aged out. That's how much we valued his experience there. We can't thank Michelle, Ms. Lacey, and all the staff enough for everything they did for our son!
I have known Michelle Simon for over a decade. She is a wonderful, caring & honest individual. We met as pet and animal lovers, while pursuing photo opportunities and became good friends after that. Then we both assisted with Christmas photo sessions to assist Zac's Legacy, which raises money for the victims of childhood cancer.
We have our 5 month old daughter enrolled at Clubhouse Academy, and it's so nice to go to work knowing she is in good hands! We get multiple updates throughout the day along with photos/videos which I really appreciate. About once a week we will also get some sort of craft/artwork to take home that our daughter has made, they're always so cute! Thanks to the amazing teachers for loving our little girl like their own :)
