What Parents Say
Parents consistently praise Children's Learning Paradise for its warm, family-like environment where children feel deeply loved and safe. The facility stands out for its research-based curriculum, bilingual education, healthy homemade meals, outdoor play, no screen time, and skilled staff led by owner Ms. Luz. Multiple families report returning or planning to keep siblings enrolled, citing exceptional child development outcomes.
Our family has had the absolute pleasure of being part of Children’s Learning Paradise for a little over a year, and words cannot truly express how grateful we are for this experience. From the very beginning, Ms. Luz, her staff, and her wonderful family have made us feel welcomed, supported, and confident that our daughter was in the best hands. The love, care, and dedication they show each child is unmatched. Everyone individually expresses an incredible gift for connecting with the children and making them feel safe, valued, and encouraged every single day. The patience, kindness, and attention they give reflects the heart of this entire daycare.
My daughter started summer school here and she loves her school and the teachers, especially Miss T❤️ My child always comes home with clean clothes, no messy face or hair. The food they serve is healthy, the activities are supper fun and educational and the backyard is big and has plenty of shade. The staff is warm and welcoming! There is no screen time. The Spanish they learn is definitely a plus and she already said several words after just 1 week. I Highly recommend this school!
This school has truly been a blessing for our daughter. We were only at CLP for a little over a year and we trully felt like our daughter was loved and cared for as if she was their own, from the owner (Ms.Luz) to all the staff. Ms. Luz and her family really care for and love the children under their care and are very understanding. And Ms. T is beyond amazing. My daughter truly fell in love with her and so did we. I cannot thank her enough for how she looked after our daughter. I could not recommend CLP enough. We only left due to Virginia Beach zoning rules as our daughter started school recently. Thank you so much for helping our daughter grow in environment we trust.
We absolutely love CLP—it’s truly been a second home for our children. All three of our kids have gone here (or are currently enrolled), and we couldn’t imagine a better place for them to grow, learn, and thrive. • Most importantly, our children are safe and deeply loved here. • Ms. Luz and the entire staff have become like family to us—they are nurturing, dedicated, and genuinely care about each child. • They serve healthy, homecooked, balanced meals with lots of variety and low sugar—something we really value. • Our kids spend plenty of time outdoors exploring, playing, and connecting with nature. There’s no TV or screen time, which we appreciate. • Emotional self-regulation is taught and modeled daily, and we’ve seen how much this supports our children’s confidence and social skills. • The dual immersion in both language and culture is incredible—it’s a gift that adds so much richness to their learning. • Communication is consistently clear and thoughtful; we always feel informed and supported as parents. • We’ve also connected with other families through the daycare community, which has been a wonderful bonus. • Our older children were potty trained early (our youngest is well on her way!) and fully transitioned out of diapers without any stress or setbacks. • The school readiness support is excellent—our kids entered pre-K and kindergarten already knowing their letters and routines. • CLP partners with the UVA-developed Stream3in program, and follows a well-structured curriculum during the school year, along with a fun and enriching summer program. We’re sharing our experience because we know this is one of the most important decisions a parent will make for their child. This daycare has given our family so much peace of mind and joy—we truly can’t recommend Children’s Learning Paradise enough.
This is an amazing place. Both of our sons go here and are absolutely thriving. They truly treat each child as if they are family. Great research based curriculum, daily outside time and enriching activities. We can’t say enough good things! We are planning to send our next baby here too and keep them here through kindergarten. They are also bilingual which is a huge plus. If you are lucky enough to get a spot, definitely take it!
