We absolutely love Rainbow Child Development Center! From the moment I spoke with Doreen over the phone from Florida I knew we had found the right place for your kids. The staff is warm, attentive and genuinely cares for each child. Communication is excellent with the use of the Procare app (as well as without the app). The classrooms are bright, clean and full of engaging learning opportunities. The outdoor play area is large and they have a wonderful gym for days that are either too hot, cold or rainy to go outside. Our children have grown so much and made some really amazing friends here. We highly recommend Rainbow to any parent looking for a daycare that goes above and beyond.

I feel lucky that my son was able to be part of the Rainbow CDC family! The staff is wonderful and make you feel like family. This is a family owned business and you can tell how much Doreen and Laurie care about their students and staff. I really appreciated the frequent communication, which helped to develop a trust between me and the staff. It's clean, they make sure to sanitize toys and hand washing is part of everyday routines. My son began attending Rainbow for preschool and he absolutely loved it! He truly enjoyed going to spend time with his teachers and friends every day. If you're considering Rainbow, look no further :) You're in good hands.

I cannot say enough about Rainbow, we loved it here!!! Both our sons attended here from 12 weeks old through preschool. We even moved out of the area and still brought our son's here because we loved it so much. The staff is amazing, and the facility is very warm and inviting. I knew after our first visit that this was the place for us! The teachers and administration were a part our family and they truly loved and cared for our children. Our sons both flourished here and grew up well prepared for elementary school and life.

We took our son to Rainbow for summer camp after an unexpected daycare shut-down. Doreen and the Rainbow team were extremely accommodating! We loved all the teachers, getting updates and pictures throughout the day via an app, and our kiddo always left happy and excited to go back the next day. Really great environment and we will definitely consider them next summer!

Rainbow CDC is great. Both of our kids went there from about ages 3-5 (after transitioning out of an in-home daycare for the early years). And due to the pandemic, our oldest actually spent most of his Kindergarten year there as well, doing school online with their support. Both our kids loved Rainbow and were very positive about it - the only complaint they ever had was about doing nap time when they got older, ;). Rainbow is very clean, sanitary (it never has that "daycare smell!"), and well-managed. They hardly had any issues with COVID outbreaks during the pandemic and we always felt safe sending our children there. It is also bright, cheery and fun, as well as educational and stimulating. Both our kids were starting to get bored and picking up less desirable habits from younger kids by age 2-3 in in-home daycare. Moving them to this preschool setting really helped and they were very happy there. And by the time our kids reached Kindergarten, they already were proficient at all of the Kindergarten competencies that were outlined at Back to School Nights by their teachers. Their teachers commented on how well-prepared they were, and how they were helping other kids learn in the classroom. During the summer, Rainbow also changes it up to not feel so school year-y, with nice "summer break" type activities like Splash Day and Tasty Tuesdays. If you are looking for a fun, clean, safe, educational place to send your kids, I highly recommend. Thank you Rainbow for making our lives better!
