As a parent, entrusting our child into the care of others is one of the most significant decisions we make. From the moment we stepped through the doors of DMA, it was clear that this institution was not just a place of learning, but a nurturing safe-space for our little one. We had the opportunity to have an introductory video call/interview with our child’s teachers-to-be prior to enrollment, giving further reassurance. My wife and I can tell the curriculum at DMA is thoughtfully designed to stimulate young minds while encouraging creativity and exploration. Our child has reached so many markers and milestones that most parents hope for during early development, and we can only imagine the environment presented at DMA has help guide this trend.

Absolutely love this school for my daughter. She asks to go to school daily! I need to get her enrolled in more days because she loves it so much. Constantly talks about how she loves her teachers. The staff is truly amazing, and they go above and beyond for the families.

This is a fantastic preschool! All the teachers are wonderful, and my child looks forward to going to school every day. They do so many fun and creative activities. If we were having more kids I'd send them all to preschool here!

I LOVE Developing Minds Academy! The kids' schedule is filled with so many fun activities like Yoga, PE, Music class, Water play (during summer), and more! The teachers are amazing! They are consistently sending updates throughout each day and sharing fun photos. It makes me feel at ease to know my child is learning and growing in a safe space with hands-on care.

We love Developing Minds Academy! Truly a place we have called home for the last 2 years. They know all of the kids and welcome with open arms every day. I am very particular with who I trust around my daughter and I have felt comfortable and safe leaving her in their care. They do a lot of fun activities through the day and I can tell she has learned a lot since being there!

My family loves DMA! My son started there at 2.5 yo when he came into our care through foster care. My son had very few words, a lot of emotions, tons of energy, and little attention span when he started. Today he graduated from Pre-K singing his heart out and I could not be more proud of how far he has come thanks to the incredibly patient staff at DMA. He has blossomed into an amazingly well rounded child. He did art, music, yoga, sports, gardening, cooking, academics and more! The DMA staff worked with us on providing accommodations for him and allowed time for therapists to work along with them. Just a wonderful place! We are so incredibly thankful we found them. He would not be where he is today without them. Thank you DMA! Love, The Ortega’s

As my son Maximus would say, these guys are "the best in town"!Developing Minds Academy is THE place to have your young children in Scottsdale! We have had our children in Deanna and April's care since they were around 4 months old. Outside of family, there is no one we trust more with our children's care and development! The most important thing to us about the Developing Minds staff is that they have loved our children every step of the way through their development. Thank you Developing Minds!

There aren’t enough good things to say about Developing Minds Academy. We enrolled our son into the toddlers program and he absolutely loves it and so do we! He gets so excited to go to school everyday and comes home glowing. The staff is absolutely incredible, warm and kind. Every teacher and staff member at Developing Minds truly cares about the children and it’s so obvious. Our son loves all the daily activities (music, yoga, sports etc.) and the kids are always engaged and having a blast! Additionally, we love all the community building events for the parents and families! There’s no greater feeling than leaving your child in a loving, caring and fun environment with people who feel like family. Thank you!

We love Developing Minds Academy! The teachers and administrators are very caring. They have created DMA to be a family and welcome you in with open arms from day 1. They are also much more flexible and accommodating than I've seen before when it comes to being open for holidays and hours. They also host quite a few events throughout the year so you can get to know fellow parents, kids and teachers. I would highly recommend DMA!

I love this school! The teachers and aides are great, the kids have a blast, you can see their growth almost every day, and the owners are involved, and there, every day! Couldn’t be happier with the place and it’s coming to break our hearts to leave.
