“My kids love coming to school daily. My 1 year old walked into her classroom each morning and waves bye to me as she goes to play. My school ager has enjoyed making new friends and bonding with other his own age before and after school along with having a great time during the summers at summer camp. The staff are great and have become family.”
“This is an absolutely amazing facility. My son is almost 7 and has been going to Tender Care since he was 2. My 4 month old daughter now goes there. The Teachers are amazing from the infant room all the way up to the after school age teachers. Mrs. Sue is such a blessing to work with and truly cares for ALL of the children.”
“Childrens Academy 1 is AMAZING! Literally would not put my child ANYWHERE else! I would drive over an hour just to bring my son here if I had to! The teachers are required to have educations which is AWESOME and helps this single momma out! My son already knows sooooo much more than most kids his age and it is thanks to them! I get compliments on his advancement knowledge all the time from people! They do naps, outside play, story reading, arts and crafts you can keep as precious memories, and litereally so much more! They also are BARELY ever closed which means the world to me because I work all major holidays and travel for work - so not always local. I can't recommend them enough, seriously! They LOVE their children they watch and build relationships with the families. I feel like we gained an extended family and friends!”
“I cannot praise NLA enough! My daughter attend there for a year from age 4-5 and they were amazing. They took exceptional care of her and she learned so much while there. The curriculum is awesome where they (at least her classroom) have themes each week. The projects are fun and education. My daughter thrived while there and we were sad to leave NLA when we moved away from Hickory. I highly recommend them as a pre-school and childcare center.”
“As a dad who just moved to the area with my family I visited the Catawba County Partnership for Children to ask about childcare and other information. The staff was incredibly helpful. They even gave me a book filled with good information fro my family. If you're new to the area or need family resources. I recommend this place”
