Starting…read morea new daycare is so stressful since you don't really know what it'll be like until you start, but we are so relieved that everything has been fantastic so far. Our son has been in a few different daycares across the last few years due to closures and us moving and I can easily say this is our favorite. We've never had a center director that has been as responsive, present, and supportive as Ms. Brittany has been throughout this entire process. The assistant director and the classroom teachers have also been wonderful! They have live-streaming cameras which make checking in very easy but the trust that has been built so quickly has made the cameras just a simple, fun perk now instead of a comfort necessity. The teachers are also great at providing frequent updates on the app. Our son loves going to "school" and literally runs in most days! We are so grateful to the entire team there!

Absolutely no structure and they allow kids who repeatedly hit and harm others to remain at the school. After almost 2 years I had to pull my child as it took more of my energy to monitor everything on the camera rather than to trust the staff. If you want to pay $1,500 for pre-k for your child to be given a tablet or watch movies at lunch, then go to this school. Leadership does not lead and they say they will fix things and don't.

We have been with FCDC for the last four years with our two kids. FCDC, like all things, went…read morethrough a lot of changes through the pandemic years, but one thing has always remained, the dedication and love the teachers have for the kids. Especially under the leadership of the director for the last two years, Dom, the center is well organized, well staffed, and has the most welcoming atmosphere. The curriculum is centered around learning through play and peer interactions, with lessons that focus on the seasons and kids' inherent interests, and always with time to get outside. We love the teachers here, the amount of communication we get, the diversity, and the focus on love and acceptance of all people (big or small).

She loved all the teachers, made some great friends, and was always happy to be there. We have had our 2nd child (now nearly 2 years old) there since he was 3 months old and it has been equally great. It is clear the teachers truly care about him and take amazingly good care of him. I also love that we receive updates and pictures throughout the day, which is always nice to see when we're working all day. I would recommend Cradle Club to anyone, they have been simply wonderful.

The hardest task of any parent is deciding who you trust with your children, and you can definitely trust the Cradle Club!

First…read moreof all, the center director and co-director, Brittany and Kayla, are fine, professional, and caring people with a staff that mostly follows their example. If you work at the UMN you'll have the added benefit of using their parking lot to store your car while you work, UMN charges $160/month for a spot just blocks away! Your child will receive multiple meals as opposed to other centers that charge extra or make you provide meals. Only downsides are the expense and some rooms seem to have a high-turnover rate.

He had been attending another daycare with drop-in care outside of the cities, which was going alright aside from the distance away from work/home. However, when I called them on this last Monday, they were unable to get him in, and weren't sure if they were staffed enough to get him in any time soon, and couldn't give me any answers as to when they would be able to. Meanwhile, this is two months after I have fully registered him, and he has been there for a few weeks and started to get comfortable. So there I was, without childcare, and frantic. I called KinderCare late that Monday afternoon, after reading about them online, I spoke with Kayla on the phone and she was extremely helpful, put me at ease about everything, and was able to get my son in the next day and for the rest of the week with no problems, in their Discovery Preschool area. They made it very easy to get him in on such short notice, and I felt extremely comfortable with my son going there. He enjoyed his time there, and the staff kept me very informed and welcomed to all of the goings-on while my son was in their care. I would recommend their drop-in care to anyone I know who is in need of childcare at a short notice. They made my entire week better. And I will now be sending my son there on a more regular basis.

Since this is our youngest child, we've had experience with many other care settings to compare this to. Between Montessori schools and in home daycares, this has been the highest quality we've seen. This is a fantastic program & we have been impressed by the level of care by the teachers. Students develop strong bonds with their teachers and peers. Dramatic play is encouraged & there's a lot of opportunity for outdoor play. As educators, we have been impressed with the depth of the lesson plans. Each Sunday, we receive a very detailed lesson plan for what will be covered in the upcoming week. The thought put into this plan shows in the amount the children learn. Stop by and visit!
