Schools in Bloomington, MN

“From the moment I called and scheduled a tour, I could tell that this center would stand out from others. Miss Theresa is organized, caring, and surpasses all expectations when it comes to childcare. My son loves his teachers (especially Miss Ayele!) and looks forward to playing with his friends each day. Since attending, his new favorite color is “rainbow, like my school” ? We look forward to all the things my son will learn and how much he will grow here ?”

“Cedar kindercare and Ms.Dyme has went above and beyond not just for my 2 grandbabies that attend there now but also for my other 3 grandchildren( one who is a diabetic) when they were there in the past,Ms Dyme and her wonderful staff have really been a blessing to us!”

“Both my children have been students at Ramalynn. My daughter went on to Blake and then the U as a STEM Major with Honors and my son is currently enrolled. It is a second home for the children and has a very strong academic environment. The school is diverse, has an amazing sports camp, and fosters a love of learning. As a Ramalynn parent for 17 years, I couldn't be happier with the school. The sports program is co-ed with girls and boys competing together - very confidence-building. I would highly recommend the school to anyone considering a private school - you won't find anything better.”

“My grandson is enrolled in the toddler room. He has been a student there since infants and has learned and grown so much with the help of some fantastic teachers! He loves going to “school” and seeing his friends and especially seeing his teachers. Mr Mark and Miss Hannah are the absolute best at what they do! They show the utmost compassion and care for these children. These two teachers in particular, I would never hesitate to leave my grandson with?❤️. I cannot say enough good things about them, all the kids adore them!!”

“My son has been attending here since September. He adjusted so quickly and has made so many friends! They do so many fun things daily, but also include in field trips at the center, off site and really make the learning connect! We are SO happy with this center and it is MUCH more affordable then most centers out there. I would hands down recommend Learning Tree to ANYONE!”

“We’ve had a wonderful experience here! The staff is caring, attentive, and creates a safe, loving environment for the children. We’re so grateful for the great care and support they provide every day.”

“Our daughter was 3 months old when she started going to open arms, which was so terrifying. From day one, the TEACHERS were amazing. We can’t say enough great things about each and every one of them. Our daughter has since gone into grade school and our son is now enrolled into the program. Again, we have been very pleased with how each and every teacher has made a connection with our son and has really shown that they care for the kids. In the past year the management staff has changed over and it feels like a breath of fresh air when I drop off in the morning. I want to thank the entire staff at opens arms for making Open Arms a cool and groovy place for our kids.”

“We have loved EFC - the center is smaller than others we initially looked at, which has been a great fit for our family! The staff is super engaged and caring (all of the teachers know all of the students, not just those in their classroom), and communication is available in so many formats - daily updates (including pictures) in a free app, plus conferences usually in the fall, monthly newsletters via email, and then just chatting at drop off and pick up. I have also found that if/when I have other specific needs or questions, it's no problem to work with the Director in person, through email, or over the phone, which I really appreciate.

I love that they use a play-based curriculum, and that they offer just the right amount of attention to our kids! I also appreciate that they offer extra enrichment opportunities - my daughter is in dance, and over the summer and fall was also in soccer at the center. It's great because she gets exposure to a lot of different activities, but we can still keep our evenings focused on family time. In addition to play and activities, she is also learning SO much! At 3.5 years old, she can spell and write her name, count to 100, and knows the days of the week, and months of the year (I have a couple of nieces 6 months older and younger than her who attend other centers and aren't able to do all of these things, so I attribute the initial learning to EFC ?).

There are so many other opportunities throughout the year - water days in the summer, visits from outside presenters like Costume Kim, parents being able to come in and read to toddler and preschool classes, Valentine's Day and Halloween celebrations. I highly recommend EFC!”
