Our daughter was able to attend daycare/preschool at this location and it was the best decision my wife and I made for daycare and early education. My daughter made lots of friends and had excelled beyond our expectation while attending this facility. We had come from another daycare that was not prepared to handle children over 2 years of age and the difference we saw from the prior facility and this one in just over 6 months was astounding. My daughter is prepared for Kindergarten this school year, all because of the teachers and staff at Roots learning center. I cannot recommend this place enough for childcare and early education.
Our daughter has been at Roots since she was just a few months old. She is now in one of the preschool rooms. The experience at Roots is second to none! We tried one daycare prior to transferring to Roots. We also toured a few other facilities after we purchased a house in another town. Nobody compares! We stayed with Roots and don't mind the commute because it is 100% worth it! The minute you walk through the front door, you know the staff enjoy their jobs, based on the cheerful smiles you see. Everyone greets my daughter by name and she just loves to go "to school." The Director (Becky) always responds to my emails, no matter when I send them (early morning, late at night)! It is evident that she takes pride in this site and it shows through and through! We couldn't be happier with the experience we've had!
We have been part of the Root's family for 5 years. Our daughter loves it there and has a great connection with all of the teachers. The classroom teachers pay close attention to each of the children and work with them closely to make sure their learning needs are met. The extra activities such as weekely swimming and gymnastics at no extra cost is a huge plus. I would highly recommend Root's Learning Center for either full time or part time day care/pre-kindergarten.
As a previous asst director of child care, I know how much time and energy goes into running a center. When I was choosing care for my child, my first thought was to check out Roots for several reasons (hours, facility etc) but mostly because of their Director, Becky. She runs a great program that is the perfect balance of a safe, state licensed program with a family center feel. She always puts the children first and really gets to know each family. I was always able to call whether it was a concern or just checking in on my child and always felt like my voice was heard. The teachers we had were amazing and always found creative ways to positively encourage good behavior but foster the independence and strong will that my child had. We were even more grateful for Roots after our first Kindergarten parent/teacher conference at how well prepared she was.
My kids have been going to Roots since 2013 our 5 year old is moving on to kindergarten next year !! She is more then prepared for the adventure ahead . Our 16 month old has been going since she was 3 months old and just like her older sister she is excelling ! Great location to major highways but far enough that your children aren’t near heavy traffic . The center is very modern and clean . The curriculums are set for the children’s ages and prepares them for elementary school !
