My kids were here for about 3 years. We went through Team 1, 2, 3, and TK! We've done it all, and I…read morecan't recommend it strongly enough. I felt like it was a privilege my kids got to be at such a great school with teachers who genuinely give their all and love the kids. They are all wonderful, with some of them being so magical they feel like something out of a storybook. My older child had been in an accredited Montessori school prior to Discovery, and he ended up being very behind academically. Not only did his teachers from Team 3 (pre-k) and TK flag the issue early on, they also put in extra time to try and help get him caught up. This was their personal time they gave him when they could have gone home or probably enjoyed a slightly longer break. My kids learn SO much here and they have fun doing it. It's play based, but the kids learn and love to learn. The enrichments that they offer and are included in the program, mostly funded through the DSPA, are second to none. And the community at the school is fantastic. The more you take part in school functions and volunteer, the more you'll feel the community. Leaving the school is so hard, not just for us, but for lots of families, because it's just the best. Most families go on to "top tier" private schools, and some do public schools, but I would say the public school families are a much smaller portion of the school. We never felt like anybody judged our choices one way or another. Eyde runs the school, and keeps it running like a well-oiled machine. She always listens to parents when they come to her and treats everybody with warmth and kindness. She also is there to help guide you if you want to go the private school route, so you end up at the school that is right for you. She's incredibly knowledgeable in this department. And last but not least, the campus. It's huge! A friend of mine referred to it as feeling like something out of Willy Wonka. They have slides, monkey bars, play structures, swings, a meditation yurt (it sounded ridiculous to me when I first saw it, but my son did come home and meditate so judge for yourself), a petting zoo (If I remember correctly there are miniature ponies, a pig, birds, and tourtises) etc... There is so much room for them to run and play, and they never get bored of it. There was never a day that went by where I worried about my children's safety, whether or not they were learning, or if they were having fun. My kids were full-time students and stayed for extended care. They spent almost as much time with my kids as I do, and I'm glad my kids got to spend that time with them. We drove almost 30 minutes each way to take our kids to go to Discovery, and I would do it all over again. If you're lucky enough to snag a spot at the school, take it. It's worth every penny!

Our son has grown so much socially and emotionally since starting here. He comes home excited to tell us about his day, what he learned, and the friends he played with. The curriculum strikes the perfect balance between structured learning and play-based exploration, which we love. Get this -- our kiddo is learning how to read at 5 year old and we owe so much of that to CWS. The communication from the school is also excellent -- we've always feel informed about what's going on, and we really appreciate the photos and updates we get. It's comforting to know he's been in such a nurturing and safe environment for the almost 4 years we've been here.

The teachers are dedicated professionals who go above and beyond to ensure that each child is given the attention and guidance they need to excel academically. The curriculum is robust, challenging, and engaging, fostering a love of learning in students. The school also places a strong emphasis on holistic development, encouraging students to participate in a variety of extracurricular activities. This has greatly helped my child in developing leadership skills and discovering new interests. The school's commitment to creating a safe and inclusive environment is commendable. The administration is responsive and takes parents' concerns seriously, which is reassuring. Overall, I believe this school has played a pivotal role in shaping my child's knowledge, skills, and character. I highly recommend it to any parent seeking a well-rounded education for their child. By far the best decision my husband and I made.

The culture they have built is something you can feel immediately. As our son prepares to move on to public school, I find myself getting emotional thinking about how much he has grown during his time here.

I visited MANY daycare centers and home daycares before choosing Little Learners, and the moment I met Mrs. Shazna, I knew I had found the right place for my children. Leaving my children in someone else's care for the first time was scary, but Mrs. Shazna and the incredible teachers quickly put my worries at ease. Every teacher is loving, patient, experienced, and genuinely caring. My children are always excited to go in every morning--and sometimes they're so excited that they run inside and forget to say goodbye to me! As a mom, that means everything. The school provides truly exceptional care. Children are separated into classrooms based on age, with 2-3 teachers in each room. The facility is clean and safe, there is a wonderful outdoor play area, and they even have a kitchen and chef who prepares meals for the children daily. They also offer so many enriching activities, including music, dance, soccer, martial arts, water play, summer programs, and more. Mrs. Shazna also goes above and beyond to create special experiences for the children and families, from beautiful parades and concerts to unforgettable events and memories. It's clear that the entire staff is committed not only to caring for the children, but also to giving them a strong foundation for learning and development. My oldest has one more year left at Little Learners, and honestly, it breaks my heart knowing that his time there will eventually come to an end. Thankfully, my youngest still has several more years there. A huge thank you to Mrs. Shazna, Mrs. Maria, Mrs. Jessica, Ms. Hironi, Ms. Lisa, Ms. Khan, Ms. Nish, Ms. Chathu, Ms. Carolina, and every other teacher and staff member. We appreciate everything you do and are so grateful that our children get to grow, learn, and make memories in such a loving environment. We love you all, truly. If you're looking for a daycare where your children will be genuinely loved, cared for, and treated like family, I highly recommend Little Learners Academy. You won't regret it!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Little Learners Academy! My experience with them…read moreactually began years ago when my now 9-year-old son attended. Ms. Maria and Ms. Jessica were incredibly loving, patient, and caring with him. They taught my son so much and helped build a strong foundation that made his transition into kindergarten so smooth. Today, he is still a highly advanced student earning exceptional grades, and I truly believe that his educational journey and love for learning started with the foundation thy helped build. I will forever be grateful for that! (My son still remembers them too ) Years later, when it was time for my younger children to start daycare, there was no question about where I wanted them to go. My 3-year-old daughter and almost 2-year-old son now attend Little Learners, and once again, I have been so impressed with the care they receive. One of the hardest things as a parent is returning to work and having to leave your children in someone else's care. There can be so much fear and anxiety, especially when your children are so young. Little Learners has truly given me peace of mind knowing that my children are in good hands. I can go to work feeling confident that they are safe, cared for, learning, and surrounded by people who genuinely care about them. I also absolutely love all of the fun activities, school events, and special experiences they provide for the children and families. They do such a wonderful job creating an engaging environment, and I especially appreciate the onsite extracurricular activities available to the children. It is clear that they put a lot of thought and effort into making the children's experience both educational and fun. I want to thank all of the amazing staff who have done such a wonderful job with my children. They are responsive, attentive, loving, and truly invested in the children they care for. The daycare director is also amazing and has done a fantastic job building such a welcoming, dependable, and nurturing establishment. Little Learners is more than just a daycare--it truly feels like a community that I trust and feel comfortable being a part of. I brought my younger children here because of the wonderful experience my oldest had, and I continue to be grateful for the love and care they receive every day. I want to thank Ms. Shazna, Ms. Maria, Maria Chavez, Ms. Humira, Ms. Jessica, Ms. Hironi, Ms. Lisa, Ms. Khan, Ms. Chathu and all the other amazing staff members! I highly recommend Little Learners to any parent!

If you're looking for "play based learning," the teachers and owner are the golden standard for this approach (and if you're not familiar you must get familiar and find a play based environment for your kiddo-I have lots of thoughts on this).

Caterpillar Cottage is a true gem. Both our daughters attended pre-school here (our youngest is…read morestill attending), and though the girls have such different personalities, they both thrived. The school's approach is empathetic so that even the littlest children feel seen, heard, and understood. The teachers model and foster social-emotional skills skillfully, so that the kiddos become considerate but effective self-advocates and negotiators, establishing the building blocks for identifying their own emotions and needs and working through conflict. The teachers are gentle and caring. You feel totally confident leaving your child under their guidance, knowing they will be treated with respect and kindness. The teachers and director also become your genuine partners along the journey of raising your child. Through coffee hour chats, expert talks, knowledgeable resource recommendations, and one-on-one conversations they can help troubleshoot any parenting challenges you are working through. For myself and some alumni parent friends of mine, the school has been such a trusted guiding light that "Caterpillar" has become a verb. If you're not sure how to deal with a child situation, you ask yourself, "How can I Caterpillar this?" What would (lead teacher) Andrea say or do? All this is on top of the other good stuff of pre-school they provide: arts exploration, outdoor play, stories and gardening and science experiments and a lovely community of parents and friends. Highest recommendation!

She and her staff were like extended family to my girls; it takes a village and trust me you want her and her team as part of your village. My oldest started at 18 months old and my youngest at 5 months old. My girls both adore her and have benefitted immensely from being under her care. Both of them always looked forward to going there every morning. She even helped with potty training which, as you parents know, is a challenge! She was patient with accidents, reassuring us when we got understandably frustrated, and was an immense help in that department. When my oldest started, it was during the pandemic and she had been out of a day care setting for months while everything was locked down, so needless to say she was somewhat difficult since we couldn't really socialize much with social distancing in place. Dali was patient, caring, and understanding with her and helped my little girl adjust to socializing with other children and learning boundaries and discipline in a respectful way. Once she adjusted, she thrived under her care. Prior to starting TK, she knew her letters and numbers and even writing her own name! I was always kept up-to-date on her progress and growth, alerted to any concerns regarding behavior and/or illness, and provided with advice and/or reassurance when facing developmental challenges (at the time, as a first time parent, this meant the world to me). She did this with both of my girls and gave me such great peace of mind when they were under her care. Both my girls were there at the same time at one point when they were too young to start school and she handled them wonderfully. Socializing with new friends, eating nutritious foods, waterplay days during summertime, playtime with fun toys, arts and crafts, games and story time, Dali's day care has it all in a spacious and cozy home that feels like a second home for your kiddos. Like I said, I HIGHLY recommend her day care! :)
