“I can't say enough good things about the goddard school. Our son has been with them since he was a newborn and has come leaps and bounds. Both Educationally and Socially. My husband and I often look at our son in disbelif because we are so impressed with the things he comes out with now being a 2 year old! The Whole staff, From the owner Ron, to Maureen and Allison to all the most wonderful teachers we have been given the chance to work with. They all have the best interest of our son. I will forever be in their debt from how great our son does in their program. I have no doubt when he is ready for kindergarten he will be MORE than ready.”

“We can't say enough about the program and staff at Victoria's Castle. Our son and daughter have been with them since they were infants and they consider it their home away from home. The admin team are always friendly and informative, teachers always have open communication with parents and we love our pictures and videos we get through thr day and week. It helps us feel like we are still a part of their day. We have been invited to participate in special events at the program and out with our children and their teachers, which always makes us feel like part of their day too.
The owner Ms. Erika is a wonderful advocate for those who may need additional support. Our children needed speech and we didn't even know where to begin and she made the whole overwhelming process seem so simple. I am always thankful that she was even willing to attend meetings to help me understand and advocate for my littles. I know anyone who chooses to join this program will be just as happy as we are.”

“I could not be happier with the care my children have received while at Building Blocks Child Care Center, their home away from home. As a Building Blocks graduate myself (class of ‘90!), I was thrilled to learn that they had openings that could accommodate both of my daughters’ schedules. Sending your child to day care can be excruciating, but knowing your babies are safe, nurtured, genuinely cared for, and educated all at the same time makes the decision much easier.The staff at Building Blocks is truly incredible. It is very obvious that the entire team is well-versed in child development and care. They have been instrumental in helping me identify my girls’ needs and have helped me in nurturing all areas of their development best. My girls are 2 years apart and could not be any more different in terms of needs—one struggled socially (thanks, Covid!) and one is super sassy and needed some gentle guidance in functioning as part of a class. Their respective teachers worked with them, using their strengths to help with their needs, to individualize their care and prepare them for the big world of elementary school.We all know how crucial a solid early education is for our children. As my older daughter moves on to kindergarten shortly, I am relieved she will have the academic skills and social-emotional readiness necessary to meet the challenges she will inevitably face and I cannot thank Building Blocks and its wonderful, caring, compassionate, accommodating and patient staff for that. There is no greater gift a parent can receive than the knowledge and confidence that your children will shine.Side note: get on the waiting list early—they fill up quickly, for obvious reasons!”

“My son absolutely loves this daycare. The toddler room is fantastic, always keeping him busy with activities and projects. They have an incredible outdoor area to let the little ones get their energy out! Very accommodating and a once a week or so they send pictures through their app so you can have a glimpse into their activities. When I pick him up he’s always in a great mood. No complaints ?”

“My family has been sending our children to Kidz Town since 2020. We have had nothing but a positive experience with this daycare. They are kind and patient whenever anything arises with our kids. They know them as the little people they are and go out of their way to build a rapport with them. My older son is moving on from Kidz Town for the district Universal Pre-K and it is genuinely sad to move on after the wonderful experience he has had here. Thank you for all of the hard work you do Kidz Town! You are seen and appreciated!”

“Both of my children have gone through the PreK and summer camp programs. Last year they participated in hybrid learning while at Little Friends and are currently in the before care program. Through the years the staff has been amazing and are like extended family. My children love going and have made great friends.”

“We have been part of the Blossoming Minds family for 2 years when my, at the time, 5 month old started daycare! It has been the best decision we made to send him here. We just enrolled him to start the preschool program in the fall when he turns 3! My son has thrived in so many ways and we can’t wait to see him continue to grow as he enters the educational side of Blossoming Minds. The owners and staff are all amazing, kind, caring and so attentive to the kids. Makes it easier to leave my child there everyday knowing he’s cared for so well. There is constant communication throughout the day (through an app) so you always know what’s going on with your child. I highly recommend Blossoming Minds. You won’t regret choosing to send your child here!”
