“My daughter went to Duck Pond since she was 6 months old & just graduated their Pre-K program. Throughout our time there, she was incredibly cared for, supported & encouraged. I couldn’t have asked for a better group of staff for her. Amy & Jen have always been extremely responsive, which I have appreciated. My daughter started Kindergarten this week & she is so prepared because of the experiences she has had at Duck Pond & all the things she has been taught (name writing, letter & number recognition, social skills & more). She started as a very shy & timid child, but walked into Kindergarten with such confidence. Super thankful for Duck Pond! ?”

“We enrolled our three children at Learn and Play in September 2025, and I truly cannot recommend this school highly enough to anyone looking for exceptional care for their child.

The school and all of the teachers have been absolutely incredible. Erika, the director, is wonderful—so kind, pleasant, and accommodating. Just today, she offered for my children to attend on a day they don’t normally go to make up for a snow day earlier this week. That level of flexibility and thoughtfulness is something we never experienced at the corporate daycare our children previously attended. What I appreciate most is how everyone feels like family and how the staff consistently goes the extra mile.

Our children have absolutely thrived here in every way—educationally, spiritually, and emotionally. To Ms. Carly, Ms. Christina, Ms. Kamir, Ms. Sandy, Ms. Michele, Ms. Sara, Ms. Ladell—and even the teachers who aren’t directly in our children’s classrooms but still know and love them—thank you. We are so incredibly grateful for your dedication, care, and genuine love for our kids.

Wednesday morning chapel is a highlight of the week for our children. They love gathering together to sing and learn about Jesus. Soccer on Thursdays is another favorite—Coach Shane is a huge hit!

Learn and Play has truly been the biggest blessing for our family. We are so thankful to be part of this community.”
