Little Learners

My 2 children have been with Little Learners for almost 3 years now and I am SO happy with the care that’s been provided for them. They both are excited to go every morning and that speaks volumes. The staff are wonderful at communicating with us and I know my girls are well taken care of. It’s clear that the staff work together and support each other, there’s always happy vibes at pick up and drop off. Couldn’t recommend enough. Thank you Little Learners! My girls are thriving because of you!

Avoid Little Learners Ledyard if you can. It speaks volumes that the last positive review on here is from 3 years ago…. Staff consistently failed to follow established policies and never committed to making things right. 1) Our boys regularly developed painful diaper rashes despite diaper checks required every 2 hours. Short-staffing was cited as the reason. We supplied ample creams and asked for more attention to the matter... 2) The Assistant Director yelled at our 3yo son and made him sit out with his face down until pickup when he was acting out. Their response wasn’t even in the ballpark of their established Discipline Policy. There was no attempt at Positive Guidance or Redirection beforehand. 3) Children are taken outside to play in 87-degree weather without water. It took parents picking up kids to identify that a child was beet red and drenched in sweat, still wearing a sweatshirt from inside. Failure to keep children safe from the heat is consistently an issue. Lack of supervision is endemic. Some staff are overwhelmed and lose control of playtime. I had to pick up my injured son, fearful that he may go blind because the amount of rough-housing that takes place. I routinely asked myself, where is the Director? Why is oversight completely nonexistent? We entrusted our children to Little Learners expecting decent care and reasonable adherence to their policies and procedures. We tried to work with the Director on many occasions but we were consistently let down. I hate to say that we regret our time at Little Learners, but I do. I implore you to think hard about the well-being of your family and look elsewhere for the care of your children.

My son absolutely loves little learners! He is always excited for drop offs and I always knew that he would be well taken care of. The teachers are caring and communicate well with the parents on any issue

My daughter has been going here since she was 12 weeks old. Her infant teacher was one of the kindest women you’d ever meet. Every morning before I take her in I ask her if she wants to see her friend’s and teacher’s. She gets so excited! She loves them and loves her teachers! Everyone is so kind and caring. I can tell my daughter is happy and comfortable with her teachers because I’ve seen it in person. I love this establishment and wouldn’t send my child anywhere else.

Little Learners has been the home to both of my boys over the last 5+ years. There aren’t many places you can drop your 12 week old baby off to and be completely confident they are safe and loved. Little Learners has been a place for both of my boys to grow, learn, create memories and friendships and prepare them for what’s ahead. The staff is not only creative, patient, and loving, they also ensure our kids are safe - taking all the precautions during the pandemic and cold/flu seasons, kissing booboos, and making sure they have bug spray/sunscreen etc all while creating an environment that encourages self expression and creativity. Little Learners is more than just a child care center - they have become family!
