Can’t say enough great things about Childtime. My daughter, Berkeley, has been there since she was 6 weeks old. Berkeley had some health issues as an infant and the director and teachers were so incredibly accommodating. They worked so hard to help my little underweight baby become the thriving toddler that she is today. Berkeley has loved every teacher in each of her classrooms. Every staff member has shown great compassion for my daughter. Everyone knows her by name and always says hi to her with a smile. I truly believe that everyone cares about my daughter, which is such an incredibly relieving feeling being a first time mom. My now toddler is excited to go to daycare and starts clapping when we pull into the parking lot. She runs to her classroom with excitement, smiling. I get pictures and videos every day and updates through the app which allows for great communication. I can also log into the live stream to see how much fun she is having. We have had such a great experience at Childtime and look forward to our daughter continuing to learn and grow there.
We have had wonderful experience from the very beginning. We sign up for an appointment through the website and receive a call the same day to schedule our tour. When we arrive, we sit down in the office and every single question we have is answered thoroughly and professionally. It means a lot when the leaders want to make sure you as a family feel comfortable. We are given a tour of the entire facility and immediately notice how clean it is, which is very important to us. We also see happy children and friendly, engaged staff throughout the building which was a great sign. Since enrolling, we witness how well the teachers work together to make sure every child is cared for and supported. The classroom staff take the time to ask detailed questions about our child in order to truly get to know them, which makes us feel confident they genuinely care. We are greeted with the same kindness and warmth every time we walk through the door no matter who is at the door, which truly means a lot to us. We are also very thankful for the constant pictures and communication throughout the day. As a parent it keeps us updated and gives us peace of mind. Most importantly, our child loves it here. We are so grateful to have found a place that feels safe, supportive, and like a great fit for our family.
I never thought I could love a daycare but Childtime changed that. They took care of my daughter Alley so well and always updated the app with photos/what she ate/and how she slept. There was never any turnover there and the teachers and directors always greeted you with a big smile. They kept the rooms so clean too! Sad we had to leave because we moved but will be keeping the teachers number to personally babysit my child. Shout out Ms Kennise, we love all you guys!! Love Alley and Brittany
ChildTime has been a second home for our children. The staff truly care about your child and their development. The building is older, however the people and program are what matters. They have several playgrounds for different age groups, a gym for indoor play and even a pool. It's your one-stop shop & we are so thankful for them!
I cannot say enough good things about this place and their teachers! We had a slight issue (regarding our personal lives, not with the school) and Ms. Sasha was extremely helpful! When speaking to Ms. Sasha about this, she was very professional, understanding and helpful! She was able to accommodate my daughter, and I cannot express in words how much that means to me as a parent! Not only is Ms. Sasha amazing, but the directors/assistant directors and everyone I have had an interaction with are also amazing! Everyone really takes their time to get to know you, and make you feel comfortable with leaving your child in their care!
