Willow Creek Child Care

Willow Creek was part of our family for 6+ years - two kids from 3 months old until Pre-K. I truly cannot say enough good things about this child care center. In over 6 years we never had any issues or reasons for us to be disappointed or upset with any of the care that our kids received. It is obvious that the owner, directors and staff truly cared about our kids. I have heard stories from friends about their daycares closing, being short staffed, and poor care being given, and we were lucky enough to never experience that - even during Covid they did a great job of staying open and providing support to the parents that needed to go to work (myself and my husband included). It really felt like there was a sense of family and community when we walked in the door. Someone was always engaging with our kids and asking how they're doing. And our kids were excited to be there! The teachers were just so great! It was a very sad day when it was time for our last kid to start actual school. The staff at Willow Creek took such great care of our family!

We’ve been part of the Willow Creek Child Care family for many years, and I honestly can’t say enough good things about it. What has always stood out to me is how deeply the teachers care about the kids. Many of them have been there for a long time, which says a lot about the kind of place it is. Every morning, I felt completely at ease dropping off my children, and they’re always excited to go, which, as a parent, is the best feeling. Throughout the day, my kids were busy learning, playing, and laughing, and I heard all about it on the rides home. Their stories almost always include how a teacher played with them, comforted them, or just made them laugh. At pickup, the teachers take the time to share little updates about each child: something they accomplished, something unique they did, or even something I might want to watch for. That level of care and attention means so much. The teachers don’t just care for the children, they support parents too. They listen, they offer advice, and they go above and beyond to help. For example, when one of my kids was an infant, it was a teacher at Willow Creek who first suggested they might have a milk allergy which was something our doctor later confirmed. That kind of attentiveness and knowledge is priceless. Because of Willow Creek, I also feel that my children have been well-prepared for school. They left with strong social skills, confidence, and the academic foundation to transition easily into Pre-K and Kindergarten. Also as a perk, I do love the daily photos I get through the parent app; it’s such a joy to see their smiling faces in the middle of my day. Some of the things I’ve loved most about our time at Willow Creek include: • Gentle and encouraging potty training support • Learning to recognize and write their names • Learning to identify feelings and work to handle them positively (which was huge for my threenager) • Early use of baby sign language At the end of the day, the teachers at Willow Creek truly have warm, caring hearts, and it shows in everything they do. I couldn’t imagine a better place for my kids to grow, learn, and feel so loved.

I can’t say enough good things about Willow Creek! All four of my kids have gone to this daycare and they loved going every day! We couldn’t be happier with the care and learning they all received. My two older kids are now in elementary school and they were both incredibly prepared for Kindergarten. Both of their teachers asked where they went for daycare/4K because they came into school knowing so much and I have Willow Creek to thank for that! All of the staff and directors are extremely welcoming and truly care about all of the children. I HIGHLY sending your kids here!

We are lucky and grateful parents who had the opportunity to share our lives and our children with Willow Creek for 9 years. The staff is kind, friendly, and caring, and made it a welcoming place four our children to grow. All three of our children left Willow Creek incredibly prepared for kindergarten, both academically and socially. We have built life long friendships with teachers and other families that we were fortunate enough to share our positive experience with at Willow Creek. Trusting someone else to care for your child is a very difficult thing to do, but Willow Creek has the directors, teachers, staff, curriculum, and families in place to make this a wonderful learning journey for you and your family. I would highly recommend Willow Creek to new families looking for child care and beyond!

My children have attended Willow Creek Child Care since they've been 10 weeks old. Now 6 and 4 years old, we've had the most pleasant experience that I could have hoped for as a parent! The environment is clean, friendly, loving and secure. The owners, directors, and teachers are all very welcoming and knowledgeable about each child and their families. We are greeted daily and my kids have always felt comfortable and relaxed. That is a true testament of the warm and loving environment with the most caring and welcoming teachers. Willow Creek holds themselves to a high standard of care for the children and it is evident in the way they plan their activities and events for the children. I would highly recommend Willow Creek Child Care to any family!
