Words can’t express how happy my husband and I are with Little Scholars! I have been taking my two children there for many years and will be taking my soon to be third baby there as well. My children literally run to their teachers arms when I drop them off and most of the time they don’t want to leave when I pick them up. They are in the Orange and Berry rooms. All of those teachers are fabulous! Great personalities and friendly! I feel comfortable leaving them there as I know they are in great hands with Miss Michele and Miss Patience. The teachers never hesitate to call me if anything comes up that I should know about or they will communicate and chat with me at pick up time if I have any questions. They worked with my oldest and now my younger child with potty training and do a good job at being consistent. I believe they have them on a 2 hr schedule. My children are always bringing home art that they do and are always so excited to show me. Turnover is no different than any other daycare and I do have a lot of friends at other centers and we talk. Not to mention Little Scholars is a lot larger then other centers which means they are in need of a lot more staff. I know other centers only have a few spots, like 8. I believe that between the two Little Scholars buildings, they have like 45 infant spots! The office staff and Tonya the owner has always been really easy to talk to. I know Tonya, the owner is not their a lot because she is busy or at the other center, but I have always been able to get a hold of Angie or Taylor if I need someone. I believe Tonya does all the billing and the billing process has always been smooth for all the years that I have been there. But, then again “I pay” my tuition. I’ve read other posts about parents having all these billing issues, but it’s probably because they are not paying. They say that Tonya’s all about money, but that is so far from the truth. I have never met another nicer person. If she calls someone for money, then isn’t it obvious it’s probably because “they didn’t pay”. With centers as large as hers, she needs “paying parents”. After all, at the end of the day, it is a “business”. My payments get automatically pulled out of my checking account every Thursday like clockwork. Yes she does charge me even if the center is closed for a holiday, but I am given 10 free days per child that I can use on those days if I choose. I feel blessed to have my children attending and getting their education from Little Scholars.

As a former employee and current parent at both Little Scholars and Little Scholars Beginnings, I cannot say enough POSITIVE statements about the care my daughter has always received. Tonya is always available to communicate my concerns (the few that I’ve had in the last 3.5 years) and has called and met with me on her personal time (weekends). Angie & Taylor (the office staff)are great, and always make it a point to engage with my daughter on a daily basis. They are always kind enough to express their concerns when she is sick and I have to call her in and have immediately contacted me when she gets injured at daycare. My daughter is constantly calling me by her teachers name’s and absolutely loves going to school to see her “kids”. Everyone at this facility (the administrators, teachers, kids, and families) are all like family to us.

I have had my son in daycare since he was 6 weeks old at Little Scholars Beginnings-Stevens Point. I have run into no issues there, and I really appreciate and love all the teachers in the Infant A room. They have gotten him on a schedule, give me a rundown of his day everyday, notify me of anything that I should know, and provide him with the care he needs. I know there are a lot of horror stories about this place, but people usually only take the time to write a bad review instead of a good one so here it is. I think the biggest thing to remember is you’re never going to find the ‘perfect’ daycare because your child is in the hands of someone besides you. Also it’s a daycare they are going to get sick, hurt, and god knows what else. It’s expected. I just think that instead of all the teachers who do an amazing job reading bad reviews should be recognized for all the hard work they do everyday! So shoutout to Infant A/B! You guys are wonderful!

I couldn't be more thankful for the teachers in the orange room! I feel so good bringing my baby to them for their 4k program. I feel like we are a team working together to help my baby be the best version of himself all while learning in STRIDES. If you're picking 4k for your little, PICK EARLY SCHOLARS BEGINNINGS!!!

It’s sad to see so many bad reviews about this place. My daughter loves going here and learns so many new things! They call me if she isn’t feeling well or to tell me she accidentally bumped her head. Most negative reviews are about payment. Pay your bills and it’s not an issue. The employees in the yellow room are sweet and attentive.
