Couldn't be happier with Small World 2! My daughter has been attending for two years and has been thriving socially and developmentally because of the care she gets here. Ms. Mel and Ms. Fay are the best and take great care of her, and are quick to answer questions and address concerns. Thanks Small World!
I started sending my first born to Small Worlds back in Feb of 2022 at 15 months old and continued to use them up until the summer of 2025 (we are Starting school in late August or else we would continue). To say I am grateful to the staff would be an understatement. As an anxious new mom, I was so scared having to leave my little guy for the first time. That said, I soon found out that everyone at this school would take the time to make my child feel safe and comfortable. My baby has learned so much, become a social butterfly, and had somewhere safe to stay so his parents could continue to financially support our family by going to work. Childcare is NOT an easy job and the people doing this important work are not compensated by our society as much as they should be, frankly. Despite this, the people working at this school really put in their all to make sure the kids are taken care of, enriched, engaged, happy and safe. Thank you Small Worlds Early Learning and Development Centers for being a part of the pivotal years in my baby’s life!
My daughter has been attending Small World 2 for about 2 months now, From the moment we toured with Ms. Mel the manager of the center I felt comfortable and at ease. The childcare is very clean and secure. I was very nervous when my daughter first started but her teacher Ms. Kelly is amazing and sent me updates and pictures through out the day to keep my mind at ease, and still does to date. They eat very nutritious meals and do a lot of fun activities. I have seen tremendous growth in my daughter since the time, she has been enrolled both socially and educationally. The entire staff is sweet and I appreciate them.
My child has been going here for almost 4yrs! (Small World 2) She loves it here! I love it here & I’ve never had any problems! everyone is genuinely so caring, nice & lovable! I love that I am updated throughout the day with photos & i’m notified when she’s arrives! The Pre-K program is amazing & do so many great activities throughout the whole year I’m so sad she’s leaving for kindergarten next school year we will miss it here !!
My daughter goes to Small World 607 location. The teachers are all amazing. She is in the Pre-K classroom and she talks about how much fun she has with Ms. Kelly and Ms. Jan everyday. They treat her with such wonderful care and compassion. I also have to say how wonderful and welcoming Ms. Mel is as well. If I could I would give them a 10/10.
