Our family cannot say enough wonderful things about Children’s Discovery Center. From the moment you walk in, you can feel the warmth and dedication of the staff. The teachers and caregivers are truly invested in each child’s growth, creating an environment that feels both nurturing and inspiring. The center’s focus on hands-on learning through play - where children are encouraged to explore, create, and discover using natural textures and materials - truly sets them apart. It’s incredible to see how these sensory-rich experiences spark curiosity and imagination while building important developmental skills. As a parent, I feel so grateful knowing my child is in such capable and compassionate hands. Children’s Discovery Center is more than just a childcare center - it’s a community where children thrive, families feel supported and learning is truly an adventure!

We’ve been part of the Children’s Discovery Center family in Waterville for years, and I can’t say enough good things about them. Our three kids have grown up there - from the infant room to their kindergarten program, and now before/after care - and the care and attention they’ve received at every stage has been incredible. Our oldest graduated from the CDC kindergarten program more than ready for first grade - the teachers there did an amazing job preparing him to hit the ground running, both academically and with confidence. We’re so grateful for everything the CDC team has done for our family and can’t recommend them highly enough!

Children’s Discovery Center has hands-down been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our kid. We adored our in-home sitter for his first two years, but moving to CDC gave us something we didn’t realize we were missing: real consistency and stability. In just six months, the growth we’ve seen has been wild. He’s sharper, more curious, and soaking up everything they teach. And it’s not just academics—his social skills and empathy have taken off too. Sure, the first couple of weeks were a little bumpy (transition chaos is a rite of passage), but once he found his rhythm, he was all in. He loves going to school. He adores his teachers—especially Ms. Mary, who gets talked about approximately 10,000 times a day when he is home. We’re genuinely grateful to be part of this community, and we’ll be sticking with CDC for the long haul. Ms. Lisa has been such a northstar for us. THANK YOU CDC for being so impactful for our family. We feel loved and most importantly safe and cared for.
