Our toddler started at LGA at 18 months after being in an in-home daycare since she was 4 months old, making the transition a big change. The staff was incredibly patient and supportive, and now she absolutely loves it—she talks about her friends and clearly has so much fun! We appreciate the thoughtful touches, like receiving pictures during the day and having meals provided. One of the sweetest surprises is when they style her hair in adorable ways, making her feel so special!
We toured almost a dozen daycares for our first son before landing on Little Genius; we've been there almost 2 years now (and 2 kids!) and couldn't be happier with our decision. They have an unbelievable schedule and are always engaging in new activities and curriculum that's relevant by age, offer these amazing and fun event days around major holidays that involve and welcome families, as well as stellar communication, sharing updates and photos throughout the day to keep us informed and involved. The owners Lena and Tamara are really friendly and accessible, and more importantly invested in both the kids and the parents needs. We also love that they offer different classrooms by age up until Kindergarten, so we can stay and develop deeper connections over the years. Facilities are super clean, they have an amazing teacher:student ratio, and most importantly, our son comes home healthy and happy, (and tired from a fulfilling day!). They are also on the Brightwheel app so we can follow along with updates and photos, so you can follow along from afar :) Highly recommend!
Our son has been at Little Genius Academy for one year now and we've had a wonderful experience. The staff is very communicative, and the facilities are well kept. We love that he gets to play outside so frequently. They also have engaging programs like story time and music with outside guests. We plan to enroll our daughter when she is old enough.
We’ve been a part of the LGA Family since 2017 when our now 7 year old started there when he was 5 months old. We now have a 4 year old and 2 year old there as well who also started at 5 months old and have loved every minute of it. The teachers are incredible and really make you feel like they love them as their own. We picked LGA initially because we wanted somewhere that is as a “one stop shop” providing everything for the kids from diapers/ wipes to meals and snacks but it ended up being that and so much more. They have incredible holiday celebrations and really make it feel like a special place. My son stayed through TK and entered Kindergarten last year fully prepared and top of his class. Thank you LGA!
Our son has been going to LGA for four months and we have had a great experience! Our son is excited to go each day, everyone we’ve met that works at LGA is super friendly and they are even helping us with potty training! Highly recommend LGA to anyone considering enrollment
