My daughter started at Children's Circle after she and I moved back to Lincoln due to a my husband and I getting divorced. Andrea was also helpful and insightful with her behavior and development. No matter what the situation at home I knew I could be open and honest with the staff and knew were a team in my daughters growth and development. i will continue to refer all friends and family to Children's Circle as they truly care about your child and prepare them so well for the next step.

I have had a great experience with Children's Circle, a relationship I've enjoyed for nearly 8…read moreyears. My eldest child started after her second birthday. She came from an at home day care environment that was less than desirable. I heard about the school through a friend, and after visiting the school I realized it was the perfect place for her to grow. I had trouble with her toilet training and other social development issues, and within a month at Children's Circle, I noticed a huge change in her. She began regularly using the potty, she acted in an age appropriate manner with the other children, and she seemed much happier. She went on to the Primary 2 community when she turned three, and was there until her Kindergarten year, when my husband and I moved to Chicago for school. While in Chicago we were blessed with another child, and when she was 18 months, she started at Children's Circle's Primary 1 community. She is a very happy, well adjusted child now enjoying the Primary 2 classroom. Last year, my husband and I realized our marriage wasn't working and decided to end it. Andrea and all of the teaching staff at Children's Circle were a HUGE help to me, assisting my child adjust to our new normal. My youngest feels so safe with her teachers and her friends that I know it would've been much more devastating had she not been given the support and stability created by Andrea. I feel that I can speak with Andrea about any issues that are of concern regarding my children, and she routinely asks about my oldest daughter at school functions. In fact, my oldest will get out of the car to speak to her old teachers, who not only remember her, but are genuinely interested in her activities! The jump start a Montessori education gives a child is invaluable. My oldest is excelling in her current studies, and I see daily the curiosity that was nurtured at such a young age. I cannot say enough good things about the value both my children and I as a parent receive from this preschool!

Here We Grow Preschool is one of the best parenting decisions we've ever made for our two boys…read more Miss Mandy is absolutely wonderful with the children. One of our kids has special needs, so the smaller size of Here We Grow was perfect for him to receive the extra attention and guidance that he needed to further his development, and he could have fun while not being overstimulated by a large number of children. The progress he made across two years at Here We Grow was absolutely amazing. Miss Mandy is great at setting expectations while also making learning fun for the kids. She is also great at assessing each child's needs and determining what might be beneficial for them to succeed in her classroom and also outside the classroom. Here We Grow is also a wonderful way to prepare for Kindergarten given the structured schedule. Miss Mandy is also great at communicating with parents and even taking extra time out of her schedule to email and meet with parents. We really feel that we are on the same team with her and developed a partnership and she's great at offering guidance, support, and encouragement. We couldn't be happier with the education our kids have received at Here We Grow Preschool and we highly recommend it. It's been a great place for our kids to learn and grow and to also make some new friends. They are always excited to see Miss Mandy, so that's a terrific indicator of what a wonderful influence and teacher she is.

We are Lincoln’s foremost play-based childcare center, designed to focus on the heart of each child and family, rather than rushing children into the next stage of life. While many facilities replicate traditional classroom settings, we’ve designed our space to feel like home—warm, cozy, and comforting. This environment allows children to feel safe, relaxed, and ready to explore the world at their own pace. Our philosophy is built on the idea that children learn best through play and individualized attention, which is why we embrace proven approaches like Reggio Emilia and Montessori. Our staff have the autonomy to personalize learning experiences and cater to each child’s unique needs, something that larger, standardized programs simply can’t offer. At Foundations, we also take our responsibility to the community seriously. We provide families with resources like a family pantry and breakfast bar, and we intentionally build strong relationships with both caregivers and children. We never raise tuition for families once they enroll, ensuring they can plan long-term for their children’s care without unexpected financial strain. By choosing us, you’re choosing more than just childcare—you’re choosing a program that honors the joy and wonder of childhood while building meaningful connections that last a lifetime.

Worst place in town, take your children somewhere else. They wouldn't care about your child…read more Imagine hire 18yo, 19yo to take care newborns. If you run into any problems with them, good luck dealing with them. The managers there wouldn't give a damn. We took our son there for 1 month, couldn't deal with them any longer. They wouldn't listen to what you have to say, they will just let your child sit there and cry for hours. We asked to have our son fed every 3 hours, everyday they would give us the report, it says that our son takes 5oz every 3 hours, which is great. That's awesome. Or maybe not, one day my sister stop by to drop off her son at 12:15pm. Then she saw my son sitting there crying. She ask the staff if they have feed my son yet, it's almost 4 hours since his last meal. The girl gave my sister a side eye look, then she gets up to make a bottle. My son wouldn't take it, he spit it right out. And again, my sister try to help, she noticed the bottle is way too hot and ask the staff to check the temp, the girl was like, "yep it's a little hot, I guess you have to wait buddy". I came and pick my son up that day, guess what, they wrote on the daily report that they fed my son at 11:30am. I also asked them to put cream my my son face, since he was having rash issue, they would speard the scream all over his face, I mean everywhere, it got into his eye, at first I thought because of the rash, that's why his eyes got red and swollen. I came in the next day ask the manager, named by Kayla to show to the video footage of 11:30am to make sure that they actually feed my son, and when they put cream on his face. Too bad, I was told she doesn't have to access to it, and will have to talk to the owner. So I asked her to get back to me, I wanted to see the video. The next day, I asked for the video again, Kayla was like, I have talked to the staff and they confirmed that they did feed him at 11:30am, so show me the video if you have nothing to hide, still no video. Lastly, we asked to withdraw our son, she just says ok, I will delete his information. Then the next day she told me that she can refund the money if I wanted to leave earlier, this is Wed. I got back to her on Thursday, letting her know that I will leave early, so Friday would be his last day there. Again, on Thursday, my wife come to pick up our son, they have already packed all my son stuffs and just hang it to her without saying a word.

My grandson started there over…read morea month ago he was signed up to go Monday-Thursday. about three weeks after he started they gave My daughter a warning that he had to be there on Fridays her day off for at least 6 hours. Why would she take him on her day off. They told her she would be charged for it no matter what this was never told to us when he started. Then then called her today and said effective today he could no longer come back because he missed another Friday. We were already looking for another daycare but needed just a little more time.. My other daughter was let into the locked door by head staff and not asked for a ID and was able to walk right into the daycare and get him no questions asked. A random lady that they have never met was able to go into a locked facility was directed to his room and picked up with not ONE question asked We didn't want him to have to go back there it's not safe they don't know me or my other daughter at this daycare never seen us never met us and both of us at different times walked in there and picks up my grandson . No one asked us who were no name nothing. When I addressed the head lady regarding this she said if you got in with a code we don't ask who you are. . How they would even know that I got in with a code or i Walked in behind someone when my no one was even uo There. when asked about it the head director lied right to my face and told me my daughter had called and said he was getting picked up early which was impossible because she was in the hospital and even if she had called and said someone else was picking him up they still didn't know my other daughter or what she looks like at all and was able to walk right out the doors with him The diaper was put on everyday with the tabs overlapping so tight I have pictures of The marks on my grandson. From the diaper. They definitely don't wipe their noses. tI wouldn't trust hem to tell the truth about anything if they had to lie about something so simple what else could they be lying about.
