Minnieland Academy At North Stafford

Both our children attended this daycare in 2025, for Summer Camp and then for regular, full-time childcare. I cannot say enough great things about the staff. Our daughter was so well cared for in the newborn room, the curriculum and menu was great for babies, she really thrived in the environment. Her newborn teachers were lovely, I consider them to be extended family at this point, they are so kind and loving and truly treat the kids as if they were their own. The office staff were also amazing and always quick to respond on email or give me a call if I ever had questions or concerns about anything. Truly, I would recommend this location to anyone, especially for your newborn! It can be so scary leaving your baby when you need to go back to work but I felt so confident that the care our kids were receiving was top notch.

My son went to this school for almost 4 years before we moved and there are not enough words to describe how thankful I am for this staff. They are the kindest, most caring, smart Individuals. My son learned so much and retained everything he’s been taught over the years and is so advanced in his speaking, reading and math skills. Ms. Renee especially deserves a shout out for her teaching ability but also her passion and love for her students. Could not recommend this school enough!

After touring many daycare centers, I originally chose this one because of the nurturing and compassionate nature of the infant room teachers. Something in my gut told me that this was the right place and I’m glad I listened to that feeling. Ms. Michelle and Ms. Faye have treated my two babies like family and I feel confident that they are in the best hands when I go to work each day. The tenure of the lead teachers of each room speaks volumes. Many of them have 15+ years of experience and excellent systems and routines in place to help little ones feel safe and secure. I love the daily pictures I get of both my baby and toddler and enjoy seeing the fun activities and experiences they have. The communication from the director and assistant director are fantastic as well, and you can tell they put a lot of thought and time into creating a warm and happy environment throughout the center. My toddler often asks to go to daycare on the weekends and talks about his friends and teachers at home! Definitely recommended and I am hoping our next daycare center is as wonderful as this one has been!

We absolutely love Merit North Stafford. We have been with Merit (previously at Parkridge location) since 2021 for all 3 of my children. All the teachers and staff are wonderful and responsive to any and all questions and concerns. They truly seem to enjoy and know each of our children and are attentive to their needs. Their leadership with Ms. Krissy and Ms Jenny is great and we are sad to be leaving this summer when our youngest starts kindergarten.

I cannot say about good things about Merit School of North Stafford. The teachers are great. The directors are great. The communication with parents is always seamless. They genuinely care about the kids and you can tell that the minute you walk in the door. 5 stars without question!!!
