Schools near West Dundee, IL

“Excellent facility the track is very clean and staff is always wiping down the rails and doors. My only complaint is the summer camp kids. They are out of control constantly screaming at the top of their lungs and staff does nothing to quiet them down. It's not fun doing your walk/run with screaming kids. Otherwise a very nice place.”

“5 Stars isn't enough for the The Learning Tree!
All 3 of our children attended. We loved it so much we re-enrolled our youngest as well. Now, as he transitions to closer to home for Preschool, we're leaving with grateful hearts. It's bittersweet to say goodbye, but we are so thankful for the care, love and learning all 3 children received over the years. The teachers, staff and administration are incredible, nurturing, dedicated and truly invested in every childs growth and happiness. The Learning Tree has been a second home to our family, and we will always carry warm memories of our time there. Thank you for everything!”

“My son has been attending Thunderbird since the beginning of this school year and we have been so happy with not only the school, but seeing our son so happy to go somewhere just makes my heart glad as a mom. Mrs. Avachat and Mrs. Pletcher are truly amazing and have such a heart for their students. They are so patient and kind. They’ve worked with my son to help write his name and also learn to manage those big emotions 4 year olds have and get him ready for kindergarten. I love the communication from the classroom and the school as well. We get summary sheets each day and then plenty of communication from the school about events, etc. if I ever have a question or concern, they respond to emails so quickly or they will even call me directly to follow-up almost immediately. I love the remind app too.

Mrs. Koch and Mrs. Young have done an amazing job keeping the school so organized and they are so sweet with the kids. We are new to the area and I only learned about Thunderbird when I bumped into a mom at the park and we started talking and she mentioned it’s the best around and her kids and also her husband went there. I’m so glad I met her because that is what prompted me to reach out to Thunderbird and I’m just so glad I did. I have two younger boys who will hopefully be students as well when the time comes. I cannot recommend this school enough. If you are looking for a preschool, you found it!”

“We absolutely love The Learning Experience! Our 7-month-old son has been going here for a little while now, and we couldn’t be happier with the care he’s receiving. From day one, the teachers and staff made us feel so comfortable and welcomed. They’re kind, attentive, and genuinely love what they do — you can see it in how they interact with the kids every day. Highly recommend!”

“I can’t say enough good things about Huntley Learning Tree! The teachers here are absolutely amazing — so patient, kind, and dedicated. They not only helped my child grow academically, but they also played a huge role in her potty training journey (which was such a relief as a parent!).

The structured class learning time has made a huge difference — my daughter has learned so much and comes home excited to share what she knows. Even on rough mornings, the teachers are so comforting and supportive — they always find a way to turn her day around and help her feel safe and happy.

Most importantly, I’ve always felt that my child is truly safe here, which means everything. She’s been genuinely happy every single day, and it breaks my heart to transfer her closer to home. If I could keep her at Learning Tree forever, I would! We will truly miss this place and all the wonderful staff who have helped my child thrive. Thank you for everything! ❤️”

“My son wakes up EVERY morning asking to go to school. He loves his friends he’s made and more importantly his teachers. Mary and Sue in the office are examples of everything I could hope for in a front Pre-school office. All of my questions and concerns get addressed immediately. They have worked with my son through a few hard times and the kindness showed brought me to tears. I cannot recommend a better school for your littles. We have been beyond happy here!”

“Long over due but can’t thank these people enough for everything they did for myself and my two little ones. We attended both locations at one point and felt at home at both locations. From the owners, to the staff, are all beautiful people. The owners Amy and Joshua, truly do treat their clients like family. My children, who at the time were 4 and 6, now 7 and 9, would tell you the same thing about this place and these people. They remember them and talk about them frequently. Would recommend these people, and either of their locations to anybody.”

“This is our second year at FCP, and we have nothing but good things to say about it! My daughter’s teachers have gone above and beyond to connect with her and make sure this first experience at school is a positive one! They are always planning fun and educational lessons. All of the staff and teachers are so caring and kind - I never doubt that she is well cared for when she is at school. It has been such a blessing for our family to have found FCP!”

“Our child has been attending for 9 months now, and we’ve been very impressed! After having family care for the first year of life, we were nervous about daycare. Staff helped to ease her transition and she quickly grew to love going to school. One of my biggest concerns was that she had only had contact naps prior to daycare, her first few days they rocked her to sleep and helped ease her into napping on her own. Director Karen is great, always available and open to discussing any concerns, along with being very understanding and flexible when schedule changes/needs have came up. We also can’t say enough great things about Ms. Emily in the toddler room!”

“Coming here was the best choice me and my family had made. The patience that these teachers have demonstrated towards our little one it brings me to tears. I expressed to Brittany how they should be title as essential workers in the capacity as armed forces. They are the front line defense and they are the one that shape and mold our children into well, shape, kind minded, man and women of the next generation. There is no amount of monetary gifts or words to express my gratitude to this team of well deserved teachers. I have seen a change over our little one, and I know it’s all because of the team work we as parents and teachers have done I appreciate the due diligence and how vigilant in ensuring we all have a same goal in mind. The health, strength and development of our kids. I love the partnership the ongoing communication. I will recommend this facility to everyone. Thank you Kiddie Academy for everything and I’m looking forward to our ongoing partnership. Let me be the one to say great work to you Brittany and your team!”

“I have been an employee at Creme De La Creme off of Lakeline in Cedar Park Tx for 8 years. I love this school and its teachers and staff, and the families are amazing. This school is like a second home to me. The staff and Teachers are so loving.”

“There are not enough things to say that would capture how impressed I am with Goddard- Cary. They are continually finding new ways to engage the kids in enriching learning opportunities. They treat my kids as if they were their own and communicate if there are any concerns. My kids are thriving.”

“I love this day care so much. I have tutored and been to so many and this day care is the best. They’re so organized, clean, the teachers are so sweet and I can genuinely tell they love the kids”

“My 2 year old always had a rough time at drop off. Since she has started at cadence, she runs up to the teachers with smiles and hugs!! She also has grown so much in all of her milestones!! She loves everyone there!! My 2 school agers have the best time there and enjoy all the the activities that get planned!! My family is so happy at cadence!!! Couldn't have asked for a better place!!”

“Always a fun relaxing place to go swimming. Good track to walk and run. The gym is very nice with up to date equipment. In the gym at night they have different activities to do. The hot tub and sauna is very nice to relax in.”

“Miss. Cynthia and Miss. Daniela are such caring teachers, both have taught my son how to communicate and interact with other kids. My son has learned so much and I definitely see improvement! ❤️”

“It’s been a wonderful experience from day 1. Our child has learnt a lot of skills all thanks to the school. We are always worry free when we drop off our child at school knowing he will have the best day there.”

“Love this daycare! Other places usually are full of staff with attitudes or staff that doesn’t care to help in any way. This staff is always willing to help and to solve any issues. I’ve never had a single problem with their services! I’m confident in sending my child here and will continue recommending them! Latrice and Megan are super helpful always ! And my daughters teachers truly care for the children. 10/10!!”

“"An exceptional mosque! Serene atmosphere, beautiful architecture, and welcoming staff. A place of spiritual solace and community unity. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"”

“I cannot recommend Primrose School in Algonquin highly enough! My husband and I interviewed several daycares in the area while I was still pregnant and the second we stepped into this facility I immediately felt at ease. The whole staff is wonderful to work with! They eased my worries the first day my son was with them at 12 weeks old, and they’ve been there to answer every question/concern we’ve had since then. All of the teachers that have worked with my son have been nothing short of amazing. It’s clear that my son is genuinely cared for by everyone he interacts with at the school and I can go about my day knowing I don’t need to worry about him while he’s there. The facility is clean, safe, and full of toys, etc. that helps the children learn and grow. The activities they do with the children are all the same. The app/other communications are easy to use and keep us up to date on everything we need to know. I just wish our circumstances weren’t taking us away from this beautiful daycare and all of the people that have cared for my son so well.”

“Our daughter Nicole love this school and my family as well . She has growth so much with her counting and sight words since last year . The stuff and teachers are super warm and fantastic. I can work in peace knowing she is in the good hands . Definitely 5 stars .”

“Our 7-month-old daughter absolutely loves going to Kiddie Academy in Algonquin every day. The teachers are amazing—so caring, attentive, and great with the babies. We’ve been so impressed with how much she’s learning through the daily activities, even at such a young age. She’s happy, engaged, and thriving. We’re so thankful for the wonderful care she receives!”

“Both of my kids attended AOS for 3 years and loved their time there. My son was ready for kindergarten after graduating from the All Star 4-yo room and my daughter has made great friends in the Adventurer 3-yo room. All the teachers are kind and truly care about the well-being and happiness of the kids. Everyone loves the outdoor space and water play in the summer. The catered lunch is very convenient for our busy mornings and helps get the kids to try healthy food that they otherwise reject when we try to serve at home. The tuition is very reasonable and the location is hard to beat for where we live.”

“My toddler and preschooler have been here a few months now and what a big difference from our previous experiences with childcare! The kids love coming to school, they are happy at pick up time. The curriculum themes are constantly changing and kept interesting. Big shout outs to Ms Jaelah & Ms Bre in preschool and Ms Gertie and Ms Shelby in toddlers who are always welcoming and warm. Thank you Nicole and Jackie for being hands-on leaders, it really shows!”
