Schools in Denver, CO

“I have absolutely loved my children's experience at Iliff! My son has been in both their preschool classroom and Kindergarten, and my daughter has attended the school-age summer camp.

Iliff has truly been everything we hoped for and more. Every teacher that we have interacted with at Iliff is caring, kind, and very much dedicated to the children. All of the preschool teachers are amazing, and my son absolutely loved his preschool teacher and his time in her classroom.

To speak a bit about the Kindergarten program, the Kindergarten class is really special. My son has grown so much in Ms. Mary's classroom, and she creates a warm and fun environment that really encourages each child. Every week, they have writing, math, music, Spanish, science, and a lot of other fun activities. They even do baking! The kindergarteners also get to spend a lot of time outside on their own playground, which is really big and a perfect space to run around and enjoy their time together. The social-emotional support and guidance they get is an excellent foundation for their future years in school.

We receive daily pictures and updates from Ms. Mary, and it is so much fun seeing what they are up to. I know my son is loved and well-cared for in her classroom. I also know he is building a strong academic foundation and very well-prepared for his next steps.

I would highly recommend Iliff preschool and its Kindergarten program!”

“My family and i absolutely love Ms. Ruby and Ms. Yami! they have gone above and beyond to show my niece just how much she matters. Not only has she learned so much in school, but she has opened up so much too. Thank you Ms. Ruby and Ms. Yami! we love you two so much!!”

“They were so great with everything to care for your child by providing the proper education for each child individually, a safe environment, they show respect, professionalism, compassion, they're affordable, and convenient
they actually deserve 10 stars from my experience. They cared for my children from 3 to 5 years old and I have no complaints. Straight blessing I received to have found them. Loved them! ??❤️”

“Our son has been at this location since age 4 months. He is now in the toddler room and we have been very appreciative and pleased with our recent experience! The staff and teachers have been very observant and he engages daily in multiple fun and hands-on art activities!”

“Goddard has been great for our daughter! Awesome teachers. Computer system has been a little glitchy at times causing some panic but it seems like they are working through that.”

“My daughter has been attending for the past 4 months, and since day 1 we have felt like a part of the family. The environment is clean, and all of the staff are very nice and genuinely care & express love to all of the kiddos in their care. I definitely trust and highly recommend International Learning Center!

Update: 2 years later, and we still feel like part of the family! ILC has only gotten better with time, and we are sad our daughter's time there is at an end. I cannot recommend them enough, and our family is forever grateful for the time spent, excellent care provided, and the memories created with you all!”

“St Bernadette is a community filled with Faith, hope, love for Christ and humanity! Fr Joe is filled with the Holy Spirit and his ministration brings healing, hope and restoration! He is the Spiritual Director of Wells Spring Academy! My kids go there! A wonderful, inspirational, family friendly place to School and Worship! God Almighty Here!”

“We have had the best experience at the Goddard school in Highlands. Our son is happy and loves his teachers. The school offers many extra events such as Parents Night Out, a holiday concert and Halloween festivities. It’s a fun and caring community!”

“My wife and I have been so happy with the shift we made from our son's previous pre-school to AELC. The staff are so helpful and communicative, and our son loves his teachers and has had a great experience there so far.”

“My daughter Winnie has grown exponentially both cognitively and physically, all because of her teachers! She has been going here since the end of March and is thriving!”

“Front desk staff/administration are very professional, kind, and personable; incredible teachers that are present and play / interact with the students; ample indoor and outdoor play areas that are safe and child appropriate; excellent communication between staff and families; high cleanliness standards (recently won an award for this!); wide variety of learning skills and lessons throughout the day; spanish and mandarin speaking staff and spanish lessons; special visitors on a frequent basis (magicians, musicians); hours of operation are great for working caregivers (open 5 days a week 7AM-6PM); and most importantly I trust that my child will be well taken care of and have a great time when there!”

“This is a wonderful for school for working parents. I was drawn to Goddard based on their minimal holidays off and generous open/close times. However, what I love about this school is that it is truly a school and not just a place to babysit my toddler. They don’t utilize screen time and have an age appropriate balance between structured learning and play based learning. Goddard has helped potty train my child. His vocabulary has exploded since joining Goddard. I know my toddler is in great hands here as we really appreciate and enjoy the teachers. The admin staff is also amazing; they’re understanding, efficient, and even they know my toddler’s name. It is a well run school. I would recommend it to anyone.”

“Nature School Cooperative has been an amazing experience for our family! Over the past year, we’ve watched our son grow remarkably. He has developed so much confidence in his physical abilities and blossomed in his social interactions, becoming noticeably more caring toward others. He genuinely loves school, arrives every day excited to learn, and has completely thrived within their supportive structure. The teachers are wonderful and have been instrumental in the positive changes we’ve seen. If you’re looking for a school that will truly prepare your child to thrive as they enter their primary school years, this is the place. I cannot recommend it highly enough!”

“I really love Primrose School because my daughter feels happy, safe, and cared for every single day. The teachers are kind, patient, and very professional. I can see how much she is learning and growing. The communication with parents is great, and the environment is always clean and welcoming. We are very thankful for the wonderful experience.”

“Our daughter has been at highlands academy for a year and I can safely say it was one of the best decisions we made as we came off our first parental leaves. A special shout out in particular to our infant classroom lead - Bri.

Bri is the consummate professional and such a warm and welcoming presence for parents and kids alike! Our daughter lit up every day seeing her and it made us so much more assured as parents knowing our daughter was in great hands. Our daughter’s development in the time she was with that classroom was astounding! Couldn’t be happier”

“We are very happy with Happy Ladybug Early Learning Center. My daughter attends this school, and I truly appreciate the caring, patient, and professional teachers. The environment is warm, safe, and welcoming, and I can clearly see how much my child has grown socially and emotionally since starting here.
The staff genuinely care about the children and communicate well with parents. I feel confident leaving my daughter in their hands every day. Thank you to the entire team for creating such a positive learning environment. I highly recommend this center to any parent looking for quality childcare.”

“We LOVE The Learning Nest and would absolutely recommend. Our daughter has been with them for almost a year, started at about 7 months. The teachers are all incredible, kind and attentive. I love hearing several different teachers even from other classrooms saying hi or goodbye using her name. The small size (only 4 classrooms) makes this possible too. The rooms are clean and cute, the outdoor play area is great. Marissa and Sherri are wonderful as owner and director. My daughter is happy every day at drop off and every day at pick up. Could not ask for more :)”

“Gravity is a beautiful and special community and is my home away from home. I have been training here since it was Miraas Circus Arts and the space is welcoming and safe to be yourself and creative. It is a women owned aerial gym with instructors that are knowledgeable, encouraging, supportive and fun to be around. From private lessons, private parties, classes on a variety of apparatuses to learn new skills, flow sequences and conditioning; to student showcases and to performing in acrobatic dance productions- Gravity truly stands out from other aerial studios that I have trained at. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in dipping (or pointing) their toes into the aerial world to start at Gravity in Denver, CO.”

“This is the village you need!!! We live far from family and have three kiddoes under 5, all enrolled at Primrose School of Central Park. They have been nothing short of AMAZING for all of our kids. The infant teachers were incredibly loving, flexible and deeply engaged with our babies. The toddler and preschool teachers supported independence, potty training, social and academic skills while remaining warm and supportive to our kids. And the pre-kindergarten experience has been FANTASTIC! Our oldest is reading, spelling, and doing simple addition and subtraction before she even starts Kindergarten. And most importantly our kids LOVE going to school each and every day. The administration is also wonderful. They know the kids individually, connect and share information regularly, and even helped coordinate testing and reference for our eldest's private school application. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this place. We are moving back east and going to miss everyone at Primrose so much.”

“We love Primrose School of Denver North! It is a wonderful, supportive community and we have absolute trust in the care and education they provide for our two boys.”

“We couldn't be happier with our choice to send our kids to CK, and we love seeing how much our daughters love to go to school every day! The CK community is as good as it gets. Everyone is so supportive and welcoming.”

“We are so excited to see this amazing Spanish immersion program now available in the Denver, Colorado area! Our child attends another location within the program, and we have personally seen how effective and enriching the experience is. The teachers create a warm, engaging environment where children learn naturally through immersion, helping them build confidence while developing strong language skills.

We have also had several friends enroll their children, and they have all had very positive experiences. The program fosters not only bilingual development but also curiosity, cultural appreciation, and a genuine love for learning.

Learning a second language at a young age is such a valuable gift, and this school provides a strong academic foundation in a supportive and nurturing setting. The leadership team is clearly passionate and committed to providing high-quality education for every child.

Denver is so fortunate to have this wonderful Spanish immersion option available. Highly recommend to any family looking for a meaningful and enriching educational experience for their child!”

“The owner was involved, the teachers cared about my daughter, and they followed through on what they said they were going to do. The fun activities they set up all summer were a bonus.”

“We’ve put our 2 boys through AELC and have had an amazing experience. The staff is so friendly and loving to the kids. Each kid is welcomed each day by name as we walk in and the center promotes a real sense of community. They did a great job preparing my kids for school so I feel AELC helped set them up for educational success. Also, the speech therapy services were free and really helped my younger boy. Couldn’t more highly recommend.”

“It's our primary meeting location for our monthly meetings. Denver Great Kids Head Start is an awesome organization that represents our little ones aka precious gifts. A strong staff and fleet of volunteers help to create safe spaces for children to learn, play, and have fun.

This is a classic building with a history of providing for children. It's still going strong today with future goals of always being here for children. You got a love it! My family has been involved since 2019 and they'll have to carry me out before I resign from being involved with this organization and building.”

“My daughter has been going to the school for over a year now. And overall, everything is just wonderful. From the extracurricular activities they give her to do. To the study plan that they go off of to make sure they’re getting a proper education as well as bonding time with their friends is topped here in my personal opinion. Sometimes they even provide them better meals than I’m eating myself lol. They show so much love and kindness to my daughter and it really feels like a community for her. She comes home so excited to tell me about the things that she’s learned and what happened with her teacher that day. I highly recommend Everbrook academy if you want your child to be to be loved as well as the nurtured in their development.”

“We’ve been going to LLC close to a year. We liked it so much for our baby that we brought over our preschooler from a larger chain daycare, and he immediately thrived. The teachers are wonderful and care about each child, and the directors have been there for decades and foster a community focused environment. Very low teacher turnover rate, which is so rare in the daycare world!”

“This learning center is absolutely outstanding! I can't recommend it highly enough. The teachers are incredibly dedicated, and I've seen remarkable growth in my three-year-old since she started in August. Truly a hidden gem!”

“My grandson attended this school for about 6 months, at the time the school wasn’t equipped to handle ADHD but the time he spent there set him up for success. He was reading proficiently by 5 because of the teachers there. This school and my Grandson have made great strides, 14 years later. My Grandson just graduated from both high school and has an associate’s degree at 18 and is on his way to completing his BA degree. Thank you Rise for contributing to his success.”

“Primrose CO has been a saving grace for me and my family. They have supported us through the years, provided unmatched care and concern, and stayed positive through the toughest of times (i.e. pandemic). Leadership, teachers, and all other staff far surpass what anyone dreams of when it comes to feeling secure in who essentially helps raise their children. Thank you for all you do!!!”
