We see both of our kids learn and grow with their classmates and teacher. We are glad and thankful we found SCC.

I enrolled my son at Swift in November 2012, one month before he turned 3. The staff was extremely…read morewelcoming and helped to make his transition (and mine) as easy as it could be for his first day care experience. I really value that this is a family-run facility. Everyone who works there that I've encountered makes the school a warm environment for my son during the day, from the director to the teachers to the kitchen and cleaning staff. He's now in the preschool program for 3-4 year olds & he loves it. The teachers are very well-qualified and have the patience of saints. The daily reports are a great reference for me when I pick him up, so I can better understand how he spent his day and what lessons they covered from one day or week to the next. Since he started there in November, I can see his self-confidence growing and his social development and conceptual skills have increased tremendously. It's fun to see him carry over these lessons and concepts from preschool to home. I'd recommend Swift for any parent, whether this is you're first child or you're fourth child.

Meals are prepared in the kitchen of the building, it was the end of the day so dishes were piled up in the sink, cleanliness wasn't top notch. Owner didn't speak English very well so she didn't give me a lot of information. Price is better than other daycares. I can't speak of the way day to day goes but overall it didn't give me a very good impression.

Several of the teachers have been with the school for over a decade, which speaks volumes about the strong and caring community they've built. I have also seen graduates of LPM who are now in high school and college visit the school or come back to volunteer. Ms. Gina even prepares home-cooked meals for the teachers every day - I've had the privilege of trying some, and she's an amazing cook! It's clear that she not only values her staff but goes above and beyond to care for them. The entire team, from classroom teachers to volunteers, are incredibly kind, nurturing, and truly invested in the children's well-being. While LPM doesn't rely on flashy marketing, my husband and I appreciate that this allows all the attention to be focused on providing quality care to the children. As I try to speak Korean to my child at home, I am especially grateful for the cultural sensitivity at LPM - Ms. Gina, Ms. Ellie, and at least one other staff member speak fluent Korean and honor Korean culture, which makes us feel right at home. If you're looking for a daycare that is a caring community and prioritizes heartfelt care for each child, LPM is the place to be.

We have had a wonderful experience with SCC! Like many parents, we were very nervous about picking…read morethe right daycare. Due to the pandemic, our child had not spent much time with anyone outside of family when we enrolled her in the infant room at 11 months old, and we did a lot of research and toured many different facilities. SCC stood out because of the lovely private playground and the school-like nature. We also loved that they have extra curricular activities like someone who comes in once a week for music class. They were in the mid-high range of prices, but the facilities exceeded the quality of others slightly lower in price and it felt more personal than some of the chain daycares. They also had part-time options which was ideal for us as we had grandparents helping out with some childcare. All of the SCC staff have been incredibly kind and communicative. Our child had some trouble adjusting the first few days, and they reached out to help brainstorm potential solutions with us. Within a week or two, she was leaping out of my arms at drop-off and not looking back. With current covid restrictions we aren't allowed in the classroom, but the teachers are very responsive through the app and send photo and video updates during the day. Some other facilities had a constant video feed you could log into, but I prefer this situation as I feel like it's a much nicer work environment for the staff (and I don't have to be tempted to continually check in on her). The administrators are also very involved in the classroom and frequently have nice anecdotes about her to share. Our daughter is always in a happy mood when we pick her up, and the older kids we see coming out seem to love school as well. Her teachers celebrate her cute moments and her skill accomplishments, and we trust she is well taken of. We would highly recommend this place!

No way........). The meals and snacks are healthy and balanced. They also have great respect and care with allergies or dietary needs. The cost is beyond reasonable as well. All in all we are huge fans.

The center's Covid19 precautions are top-notch as well, and we felt extremely comfortable sending our 3 year old back in June. My eldest graduated from Mosaic two years ago, and she left wanting to become a teacher when she grows up - and I know it is because of the wonderful experience she had at Mosaic.

The setting is beautiful- a home on a wooded nature preserve near the lake.

She made friends, learned at an astonishing rate, expanded her vocabulary and conversation skills, and became more independent over a very short period of time. I highly recommend this daycare!
