“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Ms. Lara Daneen at KinderCare. From the moment we met her, it was clear she genuinely cares about every child in her care. She creates a warm, nurturing, and structured environment that makes children feel safe, supported, and excited to learn.

Ms. Lara has a special gift for connecting with kids and bringing out the best in them. Her communication with parents is thoughtful and consistent, always keeping us informed while showing how much she values our input. My child has grown so much under her guidance—not just academically, but emotionally and socially too.

It’s rare to find someone who is both passionate and professional, and Ms. Lara embodies both perfectly. We’re so grateful to have her as part of our child’s early education journey. KinderCare is lucky to have her!”

“Our child started at Lake Ridge KinderCare at 6 months old. As first time parents, we were very nervous at first to leave her in the care of others, but our worries literally disappeared on day 1. She has grown and learned SO much since then, and it’s very evident that she also LOVES spending time at her school. Huge shoutout to all the infant/toddler room teachers, and especially to Ms Ana and Ms Maria who have been there since the very beginning.

We also enjoyed viewing pictures/videos through the app so we could check in on how she’s doing throughout the day. This place treated us so well that we immediately searched for a KinderCare facility in our new state for our upcoming move. Highly highly recommend this place.”

“The support, care and professionalism that I have seen and encounter this School will always be top tier for me. My boys have thrived so much since coming and I’m glad that we made the decision to come here. The best choice ever.”

“My grandson absolutely loves it here. This is his second center after us returning back stateside.
The center answered all my questions without hesitation. The center has a nice mix of students. My grandson is only 2 he knows color, numbers and letters not just by being able to say them but also in written form.
He comes home talking about he had a great day at school. He is happy to go without hesitation. This in itself lets me know that I made the best decision by moving him from his other center.”

“We are going to the Goddard School since 2022. It has been an amazing experience for us and our daughter, and she has received so much love here from everyone. She is growing up as a happy kid because of the environment she got in this school. Her class teacher Ms. LaShawn is an excellent teacher and also a very caring person. She goes above and beyond to make sure that the kids enjoy their daily activities together. Our daughter loves her teacher so much that she misses her when the school is closed.

“We absolutely love KinderCare in Stafford. My son started going here since October 2024 when he was 11 months. It was the first time we had ever left him really with anyone other than family and they made us feel so good and comfortable. He has come LEAPS and BOUNDS since he started here. The staff in the Infant B room (Ms. Zariah, Ms. Tina, and Ms. Lindsey) are great and we/he absolutely love them. They are very good with communicating how his day was and it’s great to get the updates and pictures throughout the day through the app.
Ms. Kellee the director is great and always very easy to get ahold of or speak to.”

“I’m not the one that’s writes to many reviews, but have to for them. My daughter finished her first week here and loves it! From the moment me and my husband toured it was smooth and we knew this was the place for her. She had fun every time I come pick her up and the amount of things they offer just blows my mind. My daughter comes home ready for bed and tired, due to there fun Jam Pack day. Being able to see pictures off her and updates makes me feel I’m there with her and Essie’s all my worries that’s I had. Her teachers are so sweet, and can tell they care about the littles in their classroom. The whole staff is great and I see why people can’t stop talking
About them. Me and my husband can’t wait to see how she grows here and learns. Thank you KinderCare for welcoming my little girl to the family.”

“My second time with this center, they all are very nice and they all do an awesome job taking care of the children. I trust them so much and know my children and grandchild are safe and loved at this wonderful center. Thank you Discovery team”

“My son loves going to school at The Merit School and always feels loved by his teachers Ms Asya and Ms Taylor! I appreciate the app that allows me to see everything he’s doing all day and to see photos of him! The administrators Ms Faye and Ms Ashley are extremely kind, knowledgeable and take the time to know my son.”

“I recently toured this preschool and was so impressed! The center was clean, bright, and thoughtfully organized for young learners. The staff was warm, welcoming, and took the time to answer all of my questions. You can tell they truly care about the children and take pride in what they do. The classrooms were full of engaging materials, and the daily schedule balances learning, play, and social development so well. I left the tour feeling confident and excited about the possibility of enrolling. Highly recommend scheduling a visit if you’re looking for a quality preschool!”

“This a really good place to have your children, everybody it's so nice and welcoming. The teachers and lady's at front are so helpful and kind. My child it's so happy here.”

“My child has been going to this school for a little less than a year. I was nervous about placing my child in a daycare. However, the daycare has done EVERYTHING to smooth those nerves! Each morning and afternoon I am greeted with a good morning and goodbye from the staff! I am receiving pictures and notes each day! The baby room has a wonderful staff that inform you everyday all the things your child has done and how they are doing. I feel that my child is safe and loved each day I walk in and walk out. Thank you for helping me through this transition!”

“Kiddie Academy of Stafford is wonderful! The teachers and staff are very caring and supportive. Our little has learned so much since enrollment. The teachers work with our little to develop skills and track progress. We really appreciate the staff's willingness to work with our family - it's clear they love what they do!”

“This may or may not be my first review of Wonderful Virginia Academy but I want to reiterate how much I appreciate this place. We chose to move to WVA after key departures from our previous daycare and considerable cost increases that gave us little reason to stay. We had no idea what to expect.

Today our daughters look forward to every day at WVA. The staff, particularly Miss Kim, Miss Sue, and Miss A (but really almost everyone I've encountered) makes our girls feel so welcome. The dropoff/pickup hours are great and the staff is quick to communicate any issues our kids might have or any progress they've made. We are extremely grateful for their help and confident knowing our children are always well cared for.”

“I've had the best nail experience at Veronica's. Jessica is a true professional, detail oriented and meticulous about her art. Compared to other nail salons - this is the best! I highly recommend Veronica's.”

“Our girls had a wonderful experience at Guidepost. Their increase in social skills and independence was amazing to watch. Lastly, the Guides at school were phenomenal and always took the extra step to teach and take care of our girls. Thank you!”

“This school is amazing! Our 2 year old learned so much from beginning to end of his time in the Montessori program. His teachers were amazing, and loving. I never worried about him, and knew he was in good hands. The front office staff was also so accommodating and understanding when things came up that were out of our control. I highly recommend this school to anyone looking for a loving, nurturing and accommodating program for their little ones.”

“Teachers that care and love your child as their own, clean and fun environment, adjust to the needs of your family, healthy food options, and incorporate a fun educational curriculum. I could not be happier with my experience!

We've been going to Goddard for over a year and have loved our experience with each teacher. As a first-time mom, the transition to daycare can cause anxiety, but nothing brought me more comfort than the teachers who patiently learned all of my child's cues, provided updates, and helped us navigate every new skill. Additionally, when we were ready to graduate to the next room, the staff and teachers organized for our child to visit the next room regularly so that the transition was seamless.

I'm constantly at awe on how the teachers manage children with unique needs and desires while also delivering curriculum. My toddler comes home each day ready to show off a new skill - whether it's jumping, a new word, counting, or even a little spanish. Thankful for Goddard and all they do!”
