“I’ve sent all three of my children to KidzStuff, and I absolutely love them. The care, patience, and genuine love they have poured into my children has truly been priceless. As a faith-based program, they consistently model strong values and create a nurturing, family-centered environment where children feel safe, supported, and loved.

Ms. Kiara and Ms. Cierra have truly loved my children as their own, and Ms. Danielle and Ms. Valerie are true gems who showed incredible patience and care with my middle child.

The center has also worked with our family during difficult times, and for that, I am forever grateful.

The only downside is the cost, but that’s a nationwide childcare issue and not unique to KidzStuff; they actually have better rates then some of their competitors. I also miss when they provided all meals; lunch was discontinued last year.

Overall, KidzStuff has been an incredible part of our family’s journey, and I’m truly grateful for the impact they’ve had on my children’s early years.”

“I can’t say enough wonderful things about this daycare! This year was my daughter’s very first time transitioning into daycare, and the staff made the entire experience so smooth and comforting for both of us. They were incredibly patient, nurturing, and attentive, which helped her adjust with ease.

Now, she absolutely loves going every day! She has made so many new friends and always comes home happy and excited to share what she’s learned. It truly means so much to see how much she enjoys being there.”

“This has been absolutely the best daycare and it was an absolute pleasure doing business with them.
My newborn baby was placed at 5 months and she was ALWAYS cherished & prioritized. Further, I 100% felt safe with the staff and the buildings high tech safety features.

As we move out of state, this is gonna be one of the places we miss the most, from top to bottom this place has been excellent.

Wonderful ownership, management with crystal clear communication. I don’t know if an any other childcares will ever live up to this spot, cause this was absolutely the best!!

10,000 out of 10 I’d rate.”

“Celebree Glen Burnie has been nothing short of amazing for us. Being first time parents, especially the first generation to send a baby to daycare we are beyond comforted by the care and love they give to our little man Caden. Beginning with Samantha, she eased all of our worries, would give us updates anytime we asked when he first started. She was such a contributing factor to the positive start of our daycare journey with the warmth and compassion she had for not only our baby, but for us as well.

All of the teachers in Infant A, Samantha, Barbara, Bianca and Tyra have been truthfully a blessing, with the support of Infant B teachers as well. From the photo updates, the activities, story times, feedings.. everything they do we know he is in the best hands and loved each and every day. Each day we are reminded we made the right choice in schools for our little guy.”

“LifePrep has been such a warm, loving, and nurturing place for our daughter. From day one, the care and attention she received made us feel completely at ease. We’ve seen so much growth and progress in her, socially, emotionally, and developmentally, and it’s been amazing to watch her confidence blossom. We feel incredibly lucky and grateful that our daughter was able to be part of such a caring environment that truly feels like a second home.”

“I give this school 10’s across the board!! I am so hard to please when it comes to child care for my children and I am blown away with my experience at Brilliant Beginnings! The staff is awesome, the curriculum is amazing, the sanitary practices are great and my son LOVESSS it! I am so grateful that I found this school, they definitely make my days easier and ease my anxiety knowing that my child is being cared for properly.”

“My son has been attending the Goddard School in the Infant Room for the past year, and we have been incredibly happy with our experience! The love, care, and thoughtful activities they provide each day truly stand out. The teachers treat him like their own, and it shows—he is always excited to see them!
They’ve done an amazing job helping him get into a routine and consistently communicate with my husband and me, which gives us so much peace of mind. It truly feels like they’ve become an extension of our family.
We are especially grateful for Ms. Christina, Ms. Katherine, Ms. Gigi, Ms. Zamira, and Ms. Tori. Each of them goes above and beyond, and their care and dedication mean so much to us. These ladies are all wonderful, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly!”

“Alhumdolillah, found well-organized, offering excellent educational programs and a genuinely warm, welcoming environment for both members and visitors. A true asset to the city!
JazakAllah”

“If you want a place that’s going to make you feel right at home, as soon as you walk through the door! Then “The Learning Experience “ we have you and your kids feeling right at home. Thank you ladies for your time and extra support during my tour. Can’t wait for my girls to experience The Learning Experience with Brianna, Jennifer and everyone else.”

“Hi my name is Cecile and I love this Daycare because everything in there are nice ? and clean plus it’s smells good employees are so nice and respectful I recommend this place for your kids thanks ?”

“Goddard at Bare Hills has been a great experience for my daughter. From the support staff, to the teachers and even the owners, they’re all very friendly, know us all by name, and give a very family like feeling. My daughter has learned lots in her time and we are confident in her heading to kindergarten next year!!”

“Idea Lab hosted a fantastic Lego themed 5th birthday party for our son! We booked the custom party, and they knocked it out of the park with the choice of Lego activities (3, all very age appropriate for 4–6-year-olds) as well as the black light glow party! The staff was very patient and interactive with the children in guiding them through all activities. Ensuring they understood the activity and then asking them great questions at the end of each activity (fun, learning and creativity all rolled into one). Set up/cleanup was easy and the staff was fully involved and there to assist. I've had so many parents reach out to say what a great time their children had. My son is already asking about summer camps for next year and we will not hesitate to book some for him! Thank you Idea Lab for a wonderful party!!!”

“We transitioned here after a negative daycare experience and we couldn't be happier with this center. The staff were very welcoming and friendly, they have been team players with the efforts we put into raising our daughter. We especially love Ms. Terry, Ms, Faith, and Ms. Blossom, but all of the staff are wonderful. I love that food is included in tuition so it makes your life as a parent so much easier.”

“Our child has been at Childtime of Hanover for almost a year now and she has grown tremendously under their care. The administrators and staff are such caring, strong leaders, that truly go above and beyond for all of these children.

Children are provided nutritious meals, indoor and outdoor physical activity, learning and development, and lots of fun times throughout their days. I appreciate being able to see my child via app updates and through the cameras. The school's security is impeccable! Children are exposed to a variety of holidays, cultures, and activities which we absolutely love!

Highly recommend this place to all.”

“We are so happy that we found Somos Early Learning Center for our two children! The Montessori approach focuses on independence, hands-on activities, and self-directed learning. My children are confidently learning life skills (ex. putting on their own coats and zipping) and developmentally appropriate academic skills (ex. one-to-one correspondence, numbers, letters). The bi-lingual education is an added bonus!

The school is small and quaint, but the classrooms are beautifully organized and filled with engaging, appropriate materials that promote both academic and social growth. The smaller size allows for the students, teachers, and families to genuinely know everyone and gain a sense of community. We love that this is a technology-free atmosphere, and that there is an emphasis on getting outside several times a day. You will not get constant updates about your children all day, but you will know that the teachers are present, and your children are well-cared for!
The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely dedicated to nurturing each child’s natural curiosity and love for learning. Our kids love their teachers and their school!”

“I have been a member since I was a child. Beth El has a wonderful clergy that always makes you feel welcome. This is the only Synagogue I recommend if you live in the area.”

“I feel beyond blessed by the way the ladies at Busy Bees treat my baby. I was hesitant about sending him to daycare at such a young age, but Ms. Sylvia cares for him like he’s her own. It turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. All of the staff show him so much love they don’t let a day go by without checking on him. If he’s not there, I’ll even get a call asking where he is because they miss him, lol. That means everything to me. This is truly one of the best daycare, and I would recommend it to anyone!”

“I started taking my son to Kiddie Mundo Spanish Emerging about 6 months ago, and it has been the best experience. We began part-time because it was his first time in childcare he was 2 years old at the time and from day one, he has asked to go to school every single day.

Miss Marla and Miss Jessi are wonderful. They genuinely care about the children, pay close attention to their needs, and always support them in developing skills for their age. Every week, they plan engaging hands-on projects and activities that my son absolutely loves. The center is spotless, highly organized, and they share the monthly learning plan in advance, which keeps the kids motivated and helps them stay on track.

The teachers here are truly exceptional warm, caring, and passionate about what they do. They create a welcoming, family-like atmosphere where every child feels valued. Each educator brings both creativity and expertise to the classroom while instilling important values like kindness, respect, and teamwork. We couldn’t be happier with our choice!”

“What can I say? My kid loved it (3 y/o boy), I loved it! Shantelle and Angelita helped me every step of the way(from enrolling to getting his physical done last minute.) He had the best teacher MS. ALEXIS, she formed a great relationship with all the kids. My son opened up alot to his teacher and classmates!”

“Wonderful Daycare with Joy for Learning in Dogwood!
I am so grateful to have found The Joy of Learning Center! From day one, the friendly and dedicated staff made us feel welcomed and confident that our child was in caring hands. The center provides a warm, safe, and nurturing environment where children are excited to explore and learn each day.
They offer age-appropriate programs from infants through preschool, with engaging activities that support social, emotional, and academic growth. Communication with parents is excellent, and the facility is clean and well-organized. My child comes home happy and proud of what she learned. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for quality childcare and early education!”

“My child is 2.5 and had previously been watched only by my MIL, i was nervous sending him to daycare since he has never been away from family. Looking into many different options, i chose one that was convenient to my location. This location does accept vouchers which is helpful for parents needing the assistance. They have direct withdrawls set up for bank accounts which is very helpful incase you may not have the time to get a check every month. Our experience with LREEC has been great, him having a structured routine has had a great impact on not only his sleeping habits, but also his weight gain after the encouragement with other kids (which was an issue prior). The staff gives a great daily overview, do tons of crafts with the kids, often take pictures and upload to the app (which is great for closing reminders, incidents, and any special occasions coming up). They do activities often such as holiday parties, birthday activities, and this past week Kona Ice visited for all of the kids! The center includes all kids in activities, if they're old enough to participate, and good alternatives to the infant class if they're not old enough. My son began his potty training journey recently, the staff is very on board, and has helped a ton with this during the school day. While you do have to bring your own supplies/ lunches, at the end of the day it is your responsibility to purchase these things for your kid, and with the director/assistant director's generosity, there is extra supplies if absolutely needed. Not to mention that the activities that they provide (parties, Kona truck) was not required or even asked that we pay for the kids. Their policies are very clear when signing the contract, and are much similar to any other facility in the area. I always recommend family/friends when talking about little rockers, and feel that the director/ assistant director as well as the staff do genuinely care for my son and the rest of the kids.”

“I have been sending my daughter (8) here for the past 3 years. She came from another private school, and I can say the switch was a great decision. The staff is great, very attentive, and communication is A1. My daughter started during the year when Covid was still well alive, but the way they handled in person learning, I couldn’t have asked for a better way, it showed from the beginning they cared about the kids and the families. The curriculum is awesome, with my daughter being in 3rd grade, she is learning things that her friends at other schools haven’t even touched yet. The faith base of the school is great. My daughter is so IN LOVE WITH GOD, and I can only thank the staff because the way they teacher about him, helps the kids understand on a child’s level. My daughter has grown as a young girl, the excitement she has every morning to wake up and go to school is amazing and it’s not just so she can see her friends, its because she loves to learn and loves her teacher. The school gives me a sense of reassurance, that everyday when I drop her off, she is in safe hands and good learning. The class sizes are smaller than normal and that is great for me when it comes to the focus the teachers are able to have when it comes to the kids learning and the help they might need. I would recommend the school if you’re looking for a place where your child is able to grow in all aspects of life when it comes to being a kid and everyday learning. The tuition you can’t beat either. They are preparing our kids for excellence.”

“I have sent three kids to this school and love the fact that so many teachers have been there 20+ years. My kids are treated as individuals and the teachers work to help each child be successful. It is always a partnership between the school and home. I love that my kids get to enjoy extracurriculars (soccer, Fun Bus, music, etc.) and the curriculum is child-led, which allows the kids to explore ideas and concepts they truly love. The administration is always welcoming and supportive of family needs. One of my older children was lucky enough to be a YS kid and her love of learning is proof positive that children leave ready for kindergarten and beyond!”

“Our first son attended Daytimers from 5 months to 2 1/2 years old. The only reason we took him out was because our second son came along and I became a stay at home mom. My son never developed any sort of separation anxiety because he was always happy to go to Daytimers each morning! The teachers create a fun & loving atmosphere. They provide updates throughout the day along with cute photos via an app. Daytimers provides all food starting at 18 months which is amazing for busy parents! No packing lunchboxes!! They even helped us potty train when our son was the only kiddo in his class out of diapers! We have never, in 2 years, had any sort of issue or concern. We also got the feeling that management truly cares. We are so grateful to Daytimers for providing affordable yet high quality care for our son. I couldn’t recommended Daytimers more.”

“Miss Fields Daycare is truly a blessing. From the very first day, I felt completely at peace leaving my child in her care. The environment is warm, safe, and full of love. Miss Fields treats every child like her own — she’s patient, attentive, and always goes above and beyond to make sure each little one feels special.

I’ve noticed such positive changes in my child since starting here — more confidence, better social skills, and a genuine excitement to go to daycare every morning. The communication with parents is wonderful, and I always know what’s going on throughout the day.

If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be cared for, nurtured, and encouraged to grow, Miss Fields Daycare is the perfect place. I couldn’t be more grateful for her and her team.”

“My child has been going here since she was 6 months and she has learned so much from how to count to all her colors to all her abc’s it is a wonderful place for children”

“We have had wonderful experiences with KALP over the past three months. Our infant daughter loves interacting with all of the staff and comes home very happy. The facility is clean and well run. I would recommend KALP to anyone in greater South Baltimore.”

“Great daycare option and offers aftercare and before care for school age kids. The staff and management are wonderful to work with and will take great care of your little ones! Highly recommend and very happy here!!”

“I am a social worker, the majority of my career has been working with children in the state child welfare system. Because of my line of work you can imagine how hesitant I was when looking for childcare for my children. I never thought I would be able to trust anyone to watch my kids. Wesley Daycare was recommended by a friend whose daughter was attending part-time. I had passed by the daycare so many times and never paid attention. Ms. Jessica was the first staff person my husband and I met and we were able to take a tour and meet the staff. All of our questions were answered and we did not feel rushed to make a decision about placing our child there. My oldest son attended Wesley Daycare from age 2 until he entered Kindergarten. Ms Jessica and Ms Krystal were staff members there during that time who still work there. They maintain communication, are open to listening to concerns, will keep you updated regarding concerns, and will make every accommodation possible to meet your child's needs. And they are always cleaning! As long as they are there I will recommend Wesley to anyone who asks for a childcare recommendation. Four years later when my second son turned 2 he also attended Wesley. Staff helped access and schedule services from infants and toddlers for both of our sons by having sessions at the daycare. To this day my kids remember Wesley fondly and they regard Ms Jessica and Ms Krystal as favorite teachers who helped them learn so many things. They are the best! Thank you to that staff who helped me and worked with me as a parent that had so many worries about childcare. It was truly a partnership and they are forever part of the village for my boys.”
