“My daughter has attended tutor time for 3 years, and it's been such a huge source of growth, learning, safety, and fun for her. The teachers and staff care deeply for her and have earned my trust and respect. Tutor Time has been accommodating, fun, and consistent in communication, needs, and helpful with any issues. I'd highly recommend Tutor Time, and do, to all my friends with little ones.”

“We feel so fortunate to have found Bright Horizons! The staff is great, our little one loves it, and at 14 months old now is clapping when we pull into the parking lot. I cannot believe how much he is learning daily! What really makes is special are the staff who I really feel like know my child and the little idiosyncrasies that make him who he is!We love our teachers Ms. Jaime, Mr. Christian, Ms. Bri, Ms. Lauren, Ms. Abby, Ms. Sonny, Ms. Jen, and Ms. Taniqua!”
“We have had our son here since the fall of 2025. We love Ms. Maegan, Ms. Emily and Ms. Alyssa they are knowledgeable, friendly and do their best to improve everything they can for student’s, families and staff. All of the teachers work hard to provide opportunities for our son to learn and grow daily!”
“This place has blown me away. First of all, the owners must not sleep. Mrs. Turchetti is so communicative, remembers every student, and just goes above and beyond to make every family feel cared for. She’s absolutely incredible. Her husband is also always running around fixing things and caring for the animals. I recently learned he also has a whole career outside of this too, which I just don’t even know how it’s possible. I am so impressed with them. That’s just the tip of the iceberg of why and how this place is special, I could go on and on for pages. Thank you farm school for this special time ♥️”
“We love Childtime on East Paris. They took the time to work with our 4 year olds first time being in a daycare/school setting. She is loving it and gets sad when we are on school breaks. She can't wait to go back.”
“We are very pleased with our time at KinderCare-Gaines! Everyone has always been so friendly and they make sure we stay up to date with activity info and pictures in the app. Our daughter loves her room teachers and always has the biggest smile when we walk in every morning and that is because of the wonderful staff making her feel so welcomed and loved. Such a good experience with KinderCare-Gaines and will definitely recommend this center!”

“I said to
my husband the other day, I am so glad we chose KinderCare for our children, it has been a great experience. Childcare has pros and cons no matter how you slice it but our kids have been well taken care of and love attending each day. Our current teachers (Amy, Jeniffer, Sarah, Sam, and Kayla between the two classrooms for our boys) are fabulous and we appreciate them so much.”

“Goddard has been a wonderful experience for our family. My kids have attended for 2.5 years and moved through most of the classrooms, the teachers are loving, creative and nurturing. The school puts together a great educational program, fun activities and a safe environment. We appreciate the schools intention around food allergies as well. Highly recommend and so would my kids!”
“This is a GREAT place to have your kid attend! The staff is so friendly and encourage the kids imagination! The meals are balanced and at a good time during the day. They have different activities trying to get the kids to learn more and get them thinking! I LOVE it here!”
“Our children have attended this center for the last 6 years and we are so sad to be leaving once our youngest enters elementary school next school year. The staff is caring, attentive and our children have learned so many valuable things that have prepared them when they started formal schooling. Great director and highly recommend!”

We’ve had the opportunity to connect with many of the teachers and with the owner, Kellie, and it’s been wonderful to watch our children grow, learn, and build meaningful relationships with both their teachers and peers during their time there.”

“As someone who has tried multiple preschools between my kids, this is the best one so far. They make drop offs and pick ups very easy. The communication is 10/10. My son is so excited for school and always leaves happy. His skills have improved in a lot of areas as well. He will be going back next year and we are looking forward to it!”
“My son is enrolled in preschool and has an amazing teacher! She’s so welcoming and is making sure they get their daily curriculum along with fun activities! The staff are very welcoming and the place itself is well maintained and clean! 10/10 would recommend!”
“During this time of shelter in place, our son has said over and over again that he wished school would be back in session. That is a testament in itself. He misses his classmates and the everyday schedules. There were many days when he said he didn’t like school and wished for snow day upon snow day. However, for a 15 year old boy to say he WANTED to go back to school is music to our ears. Thanks West Catholic for being THAT school that our son wants to attend!”
“This place has been a wonderful place for my son to attend preschool in the Early Childhood Special Education program. Staff are well trained in keeping my child safe during transport to & from the school building and the learning environment is rich and supports my child's learning goals and IEP. I've seen significant growth in social, communication & independence skills in just a few months of him attending. Thank you Hamilton ECC staff & teachers!”

“We absolutely loved the Caledonia Milestones. All of the teachers are caring, loving, and confident in their care for the kids. There are lesson plans for the kids where they are doing something different almost every hour and a playground attached to most of the classrooms.I know there is a massive list to get in there, and it certainly isn't cheap, but if we had not moved, we were happy paying extra knowing our son was well cared for and happy.Also, their retention rate seems relatively good. Most of our teachers and assistants had been there for multiple years.”

“Our 17 month old is currently attending KinderCare Byron Center. We’ve been loving KinderCare, her teachers, Amy and Sophia running the whole show, and the community we already feel apart of.
This is our first child, and I spent the last year vetting about 7-10 daycare centers in the SW GR area. KinderCare has been the best balance of price, community, flexibility, and care for our growing family. They are clean, comfortable, caring, and communicative.
Do your research, trust your gut for your family, however KinderCare has our vote for our little one. Good luck on your search!”
“Great Communication program, and the director is compassionate and helpful. Ever since my daughter started going there, she's really come out of her shell and has finally made friends. This place puts kids and their families first.”
“Childtime has been a truly wonderful place for my son since he started attending last year. From day one, staff have shown him so much warmth, patience, and genuine care. He lights up when he sees his teachers, and that kind of comfort and excitement tells me everything I need to know about the environment they’ve created. The communication is consistent and thoughtful, and I always feel informed and supported as a parent!! I’m deeply grateful for the love, stability, and encouragement they’ve given him during such important developmental months. Childtime has truly been a blessing for our family, and I couldn’t recommend them more highly.”
