Carousel Preschool And Daycare

I attended Carousel as a child and now have the privilege of my own children attending this wonderful facility. I have always been treated with kindness and respect by Darcy and all the staff. My children love attending this daycare and look forward to going everyday. They are very responsive with communication and always have fun activities planned for the kids. I will be heartbroken when my kids have completed their time here as they have become our family. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all you have done for our family ! We love you Carousel!

Darcy & staff are amazing and have been my son’s extended family for over 3 years and they without a doubt love him like their own. We couldn’t have asked for a better daycare and preschool for our son to learn and grow at, the staff are all so nurturing and caring! Their emphasis on outdoor / nature play can’t be beat!! The new facility is amazing, so many great learning activities inside and outside! We know we’ll forever be a part of the Carousel family! We will forever cherish our days at Carousel!

The staff is friendly and caring. I have had three kids go through carousel in the past years and it’s sad to see my kids being done but excited for one more to go. My two daughters are sad that they will not be able to go to Carousel any longer for they are going to the big kid school. The good news is Darcy said they can come back and visit whenever. The staff at Carousel has become part of our family, and they treat our kids like they are their own. I cannot wait for the newest addition of my family to meet these amazing people.

All 3 of my kiddos went to carousel over a 10 year period. I never did a tour, just dropped off. From day one, I felt confident my kid was in good hands! She came home covered in sand and paint because carousel has so much fun and integrated learning in hands on activities. Darcy never stops teaching these kids new things. By the time my son was 5, he knew the difference between coniferous and deciduous trees!! Mind blown! Over the years these ladies have become family to all of us! My son even wants to work there when he turns 16. This daycare is very special to me. I am a seasonal worker and I get to sub every winter! I see all our "Carousel Kids" throughout the community and get hugs and smiles because they remember us when they went there. Carousel is truly a family in a community!! They love their kids like they were their own.

Carousel is without a doubt an amazing daycare. I have had three kids go through and absolutely love this place. The staff is always great with the kids and you can tell they truly care for your little ones, like they are their own kids. My wife and I looked in to every daycare in the area when we were ready to put our kids in one and we both quickly agree the only daycare we trusted with our kids was Carousel. I can not say enough good things about this daycare and it's staff. Also they have recently become one of Iowa very few nature based preschools. They love to be out side and let the kids be kids.
