Schools in Villa Park, IL

“My family has been connected with Elm Tree for several years, and the program has consistently exceeded expectations. Not only does this program provide children with structure and stability, but it also weaves creativity, community and love into every day the children are in attendance.The daily schedule is well thought out (academics, rigor in the morning) followed by rest and play in the afternoons. The food is well balanced and appetizing for the kiddos. The environment is a parent's dream with cleanliness, organization, but also wonderful artwork and displays of academic progress on the walls. Each season or occasion/holiday are celebrated in an informational, fun manner. My son has brought home so many treasures that I will keep forever (i.e., hand-painted Thanksgiving gratitude napkin, adorable Christmas ornaments, a Valentine's day craft, etc.).And the icing on the cake is the staff. Every single staff member that I interact with in the mornings at drop off and afternoons at pick up is personable, kind, and great at communicating. My son has special needs and the staff have accommodated him, but also challenged him to grow and develop alongside his peers. On his tough days the staff let me know what happened, but always end the conversation with forgiveness and a hope for a better day tomorrow with him. They are such good people. They genuinely care about their students, and as a parent, I absolutely could not ask for more.”

“My kiddos (now 3 & 5) are finally back at ChildTime...I stand by my below statement...❤❤❤My two kiddos have been going to ChildTime in Villa Park since they were 3 months (now 2 and 3). In my eyes, they recieve the best care here. The meals and snacks are catered and meet the illinois healthy eating requirements. The teachers are exceptional. They are nurturing, educated with certificates/degrees. I've seen with my kiddos how the ChildTime learning has provided them with positive behavior. The routine at daycare makes it easy for us to keep the same routine over the weekend so when they return to school Mondays they are back to their routine. I have found this to be a huge plus. With the recent pandemic, I am recently laid off so we cannot send the kiddos to ChildTime, however, the routine they learned at ChildTime has not changed at home. The transition to remote learning was made easy with the support from ChildTime staff. This place is truly a blessing. Once this pandemic situation improves we will be sending our kiddos back, there's no questioning that. They miss their friends and all the staff. I am teaching them and keeping the same schedule as ChildTime, thank you ChildTime. ???”
