“My son started at CKA in the infant room, and the two teachers there were absolutely amazing. They always kept me updated, were honest, and maintained excellent communication. Since he was little, it was tough for him to adjust, but they were always so understanding and eager to help.
When he transitioned into the toddler room, everything went smoothly, thanks to the wonderful teachers there—especially Ms. Kylee. She is truly amazing, and my son adores her. She always made sure he was happy at drop-off and provided detailed updates about his day. Her care and dedication made such a difference for us.
Overall, the entire staff at CKA is fantastic. Everyone knew my son, greeted him with smiles, and was so friendly toward him. If I weren’t relocating, I would have never left CKA”

“The teachers in the infant room consistently go above and beyond for my child. They are so communicative and easy to work with. I appreciate all of the cute arts and crafts they send home and can tell that my child is genuinely loved and cared for. Little folks being a small business makes it so that Steph, the owner, knows all of the kids by name and is so willing to be flexible and meet the needs of your family. Highly recommend for anyone who is looking for child care!”

“I had the pleasure of enrolling my child at The Goddard School, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we stepped through the doors, it was evident that this was more than just a preschool—it was a place where children thrive.they learned each day.The teachers at The Goddard School are dedicated, caring, and highly competent. They create a warm and nurturing environment where children feel. The office staff and the owner always goes extra miles to support enrolling process and answer questions.What I love most is the Tadpoles app where I stay connected with my daughter journey, seeing the precious moments of her her day captured in photos is reassuring and joyous. If you looking for a stress free preschool then you might need to consider The Goddard school!”

“We love Little Newtons for our toddler :) We started here in January 2024 when our son was 10 months old in their infant program. We then decided to try out a Montessori school for him that was not a good fit. We were happy to return to Little Newtons with our son now in the toddler program and have had a great experience. I would absolutely recommend Little Newtons Champlin for their kind and inclusive staff who take the time to get to know our child.”

“Tutor Time has been amazing for our toddler. Ms. Ashlin, Ms. Alex, and Ms. Sydney have been fantastic to work with and our son has learned so much over the last few months since we moved to Andover.

The directors, Tracie and Ashley, made registration and starting up easy and comfortable. They are always communicating to us with announcements and upcoming plans and they are always responsive if we need something from them.

I would recommend Tutor Time in Andover and we are looking forward to sending our newborn there in a few months.”

“Our kids have been attending daycare at CKA Maple Grove since 2018, and I have loved watching them grow up in this center. They have both blossomed under the care and love of their amazing teachers and leaders, who foster an environment of safe learning.From receiving on-the-spot updates and pictures through the app, to seeing the artwork and evidence of the kids' lessons, to hearing the stories of who played what games on the playground that day at pickup time...I know beyond a doubt that my kids were supported and treasured during their time at this fabulous institution.Liz, Sunny, and all the fabulous staff at CKA Maple Grove: our family will never forget you!”

“My daughter has attended here for two years now, and we love it. She gets excited to go every day. The staff are great, and I love getting pictures and updates through out the day!”

“Our family has been with New Horizon in Ramsey for almost 3 years. We have enjoyed our experience, the open communication, and the ability to witness their teaching through our son’s growth. We have loved getting to know the staff and to see our son’s trust in them.”

“My daughter attended for the first time this year, we absolutely love Peace. We can tell the teachers care about the students & make sure they’re all involved with what they’re learning. We can tell our daughter has learned so much attending here & always tells us how much she loves school!!”

“Both of my children have attended Crème de la Crème since 2020, and we have been very pleased with our experience. Over the past year or two, the center has gone through several positive changes that have noticeably improved the overall quality of care- especially for our youngest, who is currently in a toddler/Pre-K classroom.
The teachers are kind, attentive, and genuinely care about the children. The front desk staff is always welcoming and open to conversations, whether it’s a quick check-in or addressing any concerns. I also really appreciate the enrichment courses offered for various age groups, which expose the children to real-world experiences like cooking, art, and even bowling. Both of my children truly look forward to going to school each day.
Having been part of the Crème community for nearly six years, we can confidently say how much we’ve enjoyed our time here. The improvements over the last few years really show—the facility is cleaner, the staff seems happier, communication has improved, and our children are getting the attention they need. The app is consistently updated with photos and information, which we love.
We’ve been with Crème through two different directors, and Emily has been a wonderful leader for the center and a great resource for parents. Overall, we highly recommend Crème de la Crème to any families in the area looking for a caring, well-run daycare.”

“Today was my daughter's last day with Compass. It was a pretty emotional day for both of us. She'd been going there for a few years and loved it. I can't say that it was always perfect, but I can say that on the few occasions there was an issue, I felt heard and was helped. The staff are so caring and the owners truly care that each person's experience is positive. The sense of community is fantastic. The celebrations, the ways they reach out during difficult times, and the effort they put into relationships is unparalleled. I am sad that this chapter is over, but so blessed to have found such a wonderful place for my daughter to learn and grow. I wish you all the best!”

“Step by Step in Brooklyn Park has been a blessing to me and my son! The teachers are personable, caring, and fun! My 2 year old son looks forward to “school” everyday.

They do a wonderful job creating a fun learning environment!”

“The staff/teachers are great and they had a well put together curriculum. I wish they had more of a playground for the toddlers and used an app for daily reports and updates.”

“My son attends Ramsey KinderCare, and has been there since he was an infant. We have had an amazing experience! The staff is kind, attentive and our son loves going each day. I would highly recommend Ramsey KinderCare!”

“Our daughter attends Golden Rule Child Care: Seeds of Grace and we could not have found a better daycare/preschool! Our child is in the Ladybug room with Ms. Bre and Ms. Tammy, and these two have made going to school fun! Ms. Bre has been in constant communication regarding our child's academic growth, and has worked really hard to help our child succeed. We are so thankful for her dedication. Ms. Bre and Ms. Tammy provide a warm, happy, and fun environment for all the kids in their class as well as all the other teachers, aids and of course Ms. Sandy the director. Seeds of Grace is an amazing place and we are so thankful we were able to have our child be apart their loving community.”

“We decided to change day care providers and switched my son to the Maple Grove KinderCare, and it has truly been an amazing experience for him and my family. Ms Talia and her staff go above and beyond when caring for my son and have created a fun energetic environment that also promotes learning. My son uses a wheel chair and requires a little more attention when it comes to keeping him and others around him safe, but the staff has done an outstanding job understanding what he needs and making sure the other kids are respectful as well. They have also been very accommodating when it comes to helping my son get on the bus to school multiple times a week. This is not something we were assisted with at his last day care due to understaffing. My family is grateful to have found this center for our son, and highly recommend it to anyone in the area!”

“Fantastic ELCA Lutheran church! If you grew up Lutheran, moved to the area and are looking for a new church home, this church will feel very familiar to you. If you didn’t grow up ELCA Lutheran, Christ Lutheran has welcoming parishioners and pastoral staff that will make you feel right at home. We like that there is a mix of male and female pastors leading the congregation. Our kids are little, but we are excited by the fact that the kids programming is robust and will last throughout their growing up years. Check out Christ Lutheran - you’ll love it!”
