LOA has truly become a second home for our family. My daughter absolutely adores her teachers and feels so comfortable and happy there. Every morning when we pull into the parking lot, she shouts “HOME!”—and that’s exactly what LOA feels like to us. I’ve grown close to several of the teachers, and it’s so clear how much they care for each and every child. The love, patience, and dedication they show every day means the world to us. After being part of the LOA family for over a year, we decided to try a daycare closer to home for convenience—but after just two short weeks, we came right back. The difference in care and connection was undeniable. We couldn’t be happier to be back where our daughter is so loved, supported, and thriving. We are beyond grateful for LOA and can’t recommend it highly enough!

Our son has been attending Little Oaks since he was 6 months old, and the care and attention he receives from his teachers continually exceeds our expectations. Not only is he growing and developing each day, but he loves his teachers and always has a blast. I love that when I walk down the hall with him, pretty much every adult in the building smiles and calls him by name. I get peace of mind from the detailed and frequent updates that I receive throughout the day, and I know his teachers truly care (when he is out sick, they text me to see how he is feeling). As a mom and an educator, I am confident that my son is receiving the highest quality care at Little Oaks.

I can't say enough good things about LOA. After a disappointing start at a different daycare, we moved our daughter to LOA, and I was very apprehensive at first. She has absolutely thrived there! As a first time mom I never imagined I could feel so comfortable with other people taking care of my daughter. Her teachers love her and treat her like their own, and she has been picking up milestones so quickly being around the other kids. I love LOA and am so thankful we found them!

I am so thankful that we found Little Oaks Academy for child care. We now have two daughters being cared for in this community and I would recommend this center to anyone looking for a place for their little ones to be loved and cared for when they are away from home. We love the teachers and the staff at Little Oaks. It's more than a daycare. I love when teachers not over the classrooms for my girls walk past my us in the hallway and call them by name and share something special with me about their personality. When we need someone to care for our girls on after hours and weekends, we choose teachers from Little Oaks because of how much we know they love and care for our girls. The staff and parents that devote their time and energy to this daycare make it truly special. Having the parent led board of directors give parents a voice and an opportunity to be involved and make a difference.

I have had three kids in Little Oaks over the past six years with one still currently attending. All of the teachers we’ve had were fantastic and loving to our children, and our current teachers are fantastic as well. Overall, I’ve had great experiences with both the teaching and administrative staff. I also appreciate the fact that LOA is a nonprofit that is driven by a board of parent volunteers making it feel more like a community than a business. I would (and often do) recommend it to anyone seeking childcare.
