Willows Arapaho Hills Child Learning

I’ve moved my son around from 3 different schools in the area and Willows has been the best. I’ve been impressed with the staff, communication and just overall vibes from the place. You know how Mom’s just have gut feelings about places? Yeah, this one passes my gut check. They do have more of an academic focused lesson plan vs. free play so keep that in mind while you’re trying to find the right school. The classrooms are a bit large for my liking but they have the staff to support. They have the best outdoor space and swim lessons in the summer for the kids!

We have been going to Willows for almost 2 years now and cannot be more happy with our experience. Our daughter has learned so much and thrives in the Love and Logic approach. The teachers and staff are like an extension of our family, and you can tell they genuinely care for every one of their students. We look forward to the swimming lessons offered in their onsite pool each Summer, and are thankful for the amazing friends our daughter has made and the parents that make up the fantastic Willows community. I highly recommend Willows to all families looking for a preschool option for their children.

My child has attended Willows for three years at this location and I am so incredibly thankful we found this preschool. The playground, garden and pool are what originally drew me in. The teachers and administrators are what made us stay. It feels like a family here, every employee knows my child and she knows them. I am pleasantly surprised at the knowledge that spews out of my kid's mouth and I know exactly what she is learning from her directly. I feel confident that her education level leaving here exceeds the necessary base knowledge for Kindergarten or even 1st grade. They also have guests that coincide with what they are learning, they just had some rodeo queens here recently to go with the Western Stock Show. In the summer, the swimming lessons are clutch. I know that my child is a more sure swimmer for that. I have no negatives, this school is amazing and the people make it even better!

My husband and I love love love Willows Child Learning Centers - Arapaho-Hills! We are so grateful for all the staff that has helped our child and we can’t thank you enough, this includes, the director-Kristen, assistant director-Stacy, the yellow room teachers-Mrs. Rasmussen, Ms. Mondragon, Mrs. Kaser, the yellow room support staff, and multiple others. We are seeing our daughter excel academically and advancing emotionally. We are provided with monthly newsletters updating parents on important information including changes and what each classroom is learning that month, which I appreciate. I try to supplement her learning at home and gear it towards what she’s learning at school. They offer an enrichment program for the kids and depending on the class the activities may vary. The yellow room has a yoga activity that students can be apart of. I highly advocate for schools integrating the importance of mental health into their programs and this has been a wonderful addition for our child! They offer swim lesson with the summer program. Everyone involved makes the lessons fun, with an opportunity for parents to come a day or two to view your child’s advancements. We were able to see our daughters love for the water and improvements in her swimming. They also offer other fun activities, with the most recent being the rodeo queens coming because of the Denver Stock, and different holiday/seasonal programs for the parents to come see. The list goes on and on about how wonderful the staff and the school is! If you’re looking for a wonderful learning center don’t look any further!

The staff and teachers are amazing! My daughter loves school and is always so happy every time we pick her up. She’s learned about manners-the first week she started when she was 2.5 years old I was so impressed as she came home from school saying please and thank you! The summer program includes swimming lessons which is the best perk ever! We are so happy with Willows and our daughter learning and thriving so well here. Thank you Willows!
