We loved our time at Foundations- if we didn’t move we would have continued our journey here with my youngest child. We experienced loving care, amazing teachers, & great communication. Laela still talks about her time there. Thank you for providing her with quality care.
It has been a pleasure partnering with Foundations Child Development Center! We truly appreciate the welcoming environment and friendliness of the staff. It is always so much fun playing soccer with the kids here!
Foundations is the best daycare in Charlottesville in my opinion. Our kids attended foundations and are proud graduates. We loved the care received and the education from the awesome staff! Foundations has really done a nice job getting the best teachers around and it shows! Our sons attended from when they were babies through going to school and we couldn't be happier with our experience. This is the best Charlottesville daycare and we recommend them to all of our friends and family in the area!
Our daughter attended Foundations before heading to Greenbrier. We have moved a lot across the country and have experienced a number of great child development centers and thought Foundations was great. The teachers and staff were always super kind and responsive. Ms. Kelly was so good to our child. A number of teachers had been at the center for many years, and that continuity is both valuable and hard to find these days. Not sure why there is so much negativity around some of these reviews but just want to say our daughter loved it and so did we.
We have had three different teachers as my child has grown up in foundations. They are absolutely wonderful. They learn so much for kids so young. As parents, we’re always impressed with the themed curriculums and what our child comes home having knowledge of. Very happy to have an education focused care I would have expected from pre-k or kindergarten for kids younger than 2. Office communication wasn’t great when we were interested parents to be - but once our child was enrolled, it was so much better (both with the office, and daily easy convos with the teachers in the app). Worth the wait.
