What Parents Say
Discovery Kids Learning Center receives mixed reviews with most parents praising the quality of care, teacher consistency, and communication. However, recent reviews cite serious concerns including CPS investigations, child safety incidents, staff turnover under new management since 2022, and discriminatory practices toward children with special needs.
We have been attending Discovery Kids since June 2022, and now have two daughters there that attend (our oldest started at 3.5 months old). We have had a great experience with Discovery Kids, and the teachers very much care for the students! Unlike many daycare centers, the lead teachers, as well as most teacher assistants, have been with Discovery Kids since we have started, and it is so nice to get to know them all as both of our daughters move through the classrooms!
We toured both large and smaller daycare facilities in the area before enrolling our son and the minute I stepped in to tour Discovery Kids, I knew this would be the perfect place for him. We started with DK at 4 months and are now in the older toddler room. As first time parents and both a working mom and dad, we are confident with the care and education that our son receives when we are not with him. The teachers are amazing, I cannot say enough positive things about the infant and toddler teachers. They truly are like family. Everyone knows and genuinely cares for our child and he enters and leaves excitedly to see his teachers and friends. The assistant and director are responsive, accommodating, and clearly communicate any updates. We are so happy with the experience and growth seen in our child at Discovery Kids.
My oldest daughter started at DK at 4 months old. She is now 31/2 and still attending. They have the most amazing infant room, almost zero turnover in staff and everyone is super kind and easy to communicate with. They send multiple pictures a day and any questions or concerns are always addressed immediately. My daughter loved the toddler room and is now in pre-k, she loves going to school and always comes home with a smile. I have also enrolled my youngest at 4 months old, and feel so comfortable dropping them off knowing they are in good hands.
We have had a great experience at DK with 2 kids. There was a time when I would agree with some of the bad reviews, that the management was not the best and a lot of great staff was let go or left. That being said, our kids always have a good time there, and things have gotten better recently. We didn't have any CPS experiences, so cannot speak to that. The facilities are better than most daycares. The integrated rooms have trained staff in behavior, OT, PT, Speech and kindergarten readiness.
My son has been going to DK since November and we absolutely love it! Before this he was home with me full time for the 1st year and a half of his life. DK has made him more social and he is always so happy when I drop and pick him up. I was very worried at first but I know this was a good move for my little guy. Definitely recommend DK for your littles. The teachers and directors are very nice and the facility is very clean and well taken care of.
