Our baby girl started at Happy Hearts at 4 months old. It was hard leaving my baby but we could not have found a better place for her. She is so happy when we get there and is all smiles/giggles at drop off. You can tell by her reaction that she enjoys it. All the teachers of the caterpillars class are wonderful. The teachers and/or admin are very responsive to any and all questions and overall are great at communication. We are so grateful to have found this daycare. Highly recommend

My girls started with Happy Hearts when they were 18 months and 4 years old. We have had a wonderful experience! We were initially drawn to the school because of high quality education and, honestly, because of its very fair cost. The best of both worlds and both have remained true. My 4 year old comes home asking me questions about planets and singing songs about the continents and my 2 year old points out shapes and walks around counting to 20. They are both so happy at the school. I feel good knowing my oldest will be academically and socially ready for Kindergarten next year. What has kept us at the school though has been the teachers. The teachers are caring, communicative, supportive, and patient (especially with my big feelings girl). It is a safe and loving school. I am very glad we found it and, as a school counselor and a parent, I enthusiastically recommend it.

We have had an excellent experience at Happy Hearts. Both of our children have learned so much here and are prepared for kindergarten—not only academically, but also in how they work and play with others. The teachers are fantastic, kindhearted, and many have been there for years, which brings such consistency and care to the classrooms. The environment is welcoming and safe. We especially appreciate the curriculum, which balances center-based learning, plenty of play, as well as circle time. We feel confident knowing our kids are getting a strong start in such a nurturing setting.

I’ve been very happy with Happy Hearts. The staff truly prioritize safety and care, which gives me peace of mind every day. The learning environment is warm, engaging, and structured in a way that helps children grow and thrive. My daughter’s teacher, Ms. Antoinette, has been especially wonderful, patient, supportive, and creative in making learning fun. I’m so grateful for the positive impact she has had on my daughter’s early education and development.

My kids have been at Happy Hearts for the past two years, and we’ve had a great experience. My daughter attends before and after school care, and my son was in the 3’s and 4’s program—he just graduated from Pre-K this year! He’s gained strong social and academic skills and is more than ready for kindergarten. The teachers are warm, caring, and welcoming. My children love it here!
