Children’s Choice Academy Woodside has been an absolute blessing for our family. From day one, the staff made us feel welcomed, supported, and confident that our daughter was being cared for in a safe and loving environment. As a parent, peace of mind is everything, and this daycare truly provides that. The caregivers are patient, attentive, and genuinely caring. They take the time to understand each child’s individual needs and create a nurturing space where children feel secure, loved, and encouraged. Our daughter is always happy to be dropped off and comes home smiling, which speaks volumes. The daycare is well-organized, clean, and structured in a way that allows children to grow emotionally, socially, and developmentally while still having fun. Communication with parents is consistent and reassuring, which we truly appreciate. We are incredibly grateful for the care, dedication, and love the team at Children’s Choice Academy Woodside provides every day. I would highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a trustworthy, nurturing place for their child.

I have a daughter who is a teenager now and she like coming to Childrens Choice Academy so much that when I had her siblings she recommended that I take them there when it was time for them to start day care. I love being greeted by Liz and Gia in the mornings and afternoons when I pick up and drop off and also the teachers in the kids classroom Michelle,Gisele,Sammy, Casey and Nicole. There all awesome I just see how much they care for not just my kids but all the kids and all the hard work that they put in to everything that they do. I appreciate it so much. I love that they can point out things in my kids that I also see and I just know that my kids are noticed and well taken care of here and I’m very happy and so are my kids. Thank you for all your hard work and making it fun and safe for my family.

I have two children who are currently attending children’s choice and have been for a little over a year now. I have 10 children who are all grown and only two Littles who go to children’s choice . So I have been through a few daycares. Over the years and this one stands out !!!! I truly think the staff are so special from the Director and Assistant director, Liz and Gia to my youngest kids, teachers, Nicole Giselle, and Sammy, Kelly mariia and Nikkie. I was always nervous that no one would care for my kids The way I would. But the girls have made me feel at ease because I know they love my kids as much as I do.. They are always so loving and kind to my children. My kids are learning so many skills I love watching them grow. Should a problem ever arise the directors take care of it immediately. I truly recommend children’s choice to any parents out there who wanna make sure that their kids will have good care.

We absolutely love CCA on Woodside in Lakeside and we couldn’t be happier with the care our girls receive at this daycare. Our 5-year-old has been attending since she was 2 ½ and is in their TK program now. Our 2-year-old has been there since she was just 3 months old. It has been amazing to see how much they’ve both grown and thrived there. A big shout-out to Ms. Kelly, my 5-year-old’s all time favorite teacher, and to Ms. Kaylah and Ms. Casey, who have been amazing with our youngest in the Ladybugs class—especially helping her with potty training! I also love seeing the weekly lesson plans they all share and the creative crafts my daughters bring home. The teachers are caring, patient, and genuinely invested in the kids. Drop-offs are a breeze because everyone is so welcoming and it truly feels like a second home for our girls. We also love that meals and snacks are provided, which makes mornings so much easier for our family, and the Procare app is wonderful for receiving daily pictures and updates. It helps us feel connected while we’re at work. We highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a supportive and loving environment for their children!

I have been with Childrens choice for almost 7 years now. I love the staff, my children love the staff. My daughter specifically has a very special bond with Ms. Nicole Henry she is always very excited and willing to go when she sees her! We all love and adore Ms. Liz and Ms. Gia for always making sure we are well informed on the kids day to day, keeping their emotional and mental well being as a top priority. The whole cca staff is very loved by my kids and I. I recommend CCA to anyone who asks for suggestions because I have seen what a difference they make for my children and for myself. Thank you all for all of your love and support we love you!
