Before enrolling our son in daycare, we did a lot of research and took a lot of tours of daycares in the area, but we knew from the moment we walked into Creative Explorers Learning Center for the tour that it was the place for our family. The owner and teachers are so welcoming and warm every day. It truly feels like home away from home. It’s very clear our son enjoys his time there every day and loves every teacher he has had there. My husband and I love them too! They are great with communicating daily and are very receptive whenever there any needs/requests/concerns regarding our son. It is such a great feeling when we drop our son off every day knowing he is so well cared for in a safe, loving, and educational environment. We feel incredibly lucky to be part of the CELC family.
We did a ton of research before carefully selecting CELC, and the tour confirmed our findings! We're so happy to have found CELC and feel great knowing he's in good hands with all the teachers here. Daily communication is fantastic and all the teachers are great at letting us know any changes or advice they might have. It's such a warm and welcoming environment it's no surprise that our son LOVES going in every day. 10/10 would recommend.
Creative Explorers in Oak Creek has truly been a blessing for our family. They are always there when we need them most, offering constant support and going above and beyond for our children. The teachers are warm, caring and treat our kids like their own, creating such a safe and loving environment. Our children have learned so much—whether it’s trying new foods, potty training, or exploring new skills and knowledge. They’re excited to go every day, which speaks volumes about how much they love it there. We genuinely consider Creative Explorers our second family and couldn’t be more grateful for all they do!
We couldn’t be happier with our choice to bring our daughter here! I was so anxious for that first day after only 3 months with my little one, but immediately felt the care and support of her teachers after that first drop off. My husband and I noticed that the general vibe there is so positive and the other kids seem so happy. I love that they use an app to track everything from diaper changes to bottles to naps, and even send a picture or two throughout the day. There’s nothing more reassuring than seeing her having a blast while we’re at work. CELC truly feels like an extension of our family!
Our son looks forward to going to daycare every day! The staff at Creative Explorers go above and beyond to teach him in a truly holistic way that is giving him a nurturing, active and engaging experience. It gives us such peace of mind to know that we’ve found a place where he is safe, supported, and cared for in a personalized way. CELC is the real deal!
