“I can’t recommend La Petite of Covington enough. My oldest grandson went there and received excellent care. We were so happy that we were able to get his cousin enrolled here when it was time for him to start daycare.”

“I really had mixed emotions about putting our baby into a daycare, but I’ve noticed that at this daycare they really take care of them. I love that they teach my Genesis so many things he learned so much and I’m so happy that he goes here.”

“My child is enrolled in their program and I have to say that Kari and Lauren have been wonderful to me and my son. They're understanding that it’s my son's first time in a school-like structure which can be challenging, and they make it the best experience possible for us.
I’m so glad we chose to enroll because the owner is so personal and it’s comforting to know my boy is in good hands.”

“My little family loves Goddard! My son went to Goddard and it is my daughter’s last year at Goddard (She will start Kindergarten in the fall!). From the moment you walk in you are greeted with a smile by Ms. Dasha and Ms. Jenn. They are incredibly sweet to all the children. In Pre-K 1, Ms. Hailey and Ms. Tree are so patient and caring. I know my daughter is in good hands. Overall, the communication is excellent and I love how Goddard goes above and beyond by planning fun activities for the kids and providing so many opportunities for parent involvement. They truly care about creating a sense of community.”

“My daughter started coming here halfway through the school year and she had adjusted so well. The teachers here genuinely care about the kids at the center and from my observations they treat the children like family. Most staff speak both Español and English so my child has had a great opportunity to pick up some new words and learn a bit of Español herself. A huge thank you to all of the staff who ensure my daughter is safe, learning, and happy!!”

“I love the care that both my children receive. One is in the infant class and the teachers are amazing. My other son is in toddlers and I love the learning they do everyday. Overall I recommend Kids Country for anyone looking for care.”

“We had an amazing experience at Seattle Barista Academy during their 2-day professional barista training! This course was extremely helpful and provided so much valuable knowledge about espresso machines, crafting high-quality lattes and espresso based drinks, and even some creative and fun drinks.

A huge thank you to Paulo, our instructor, who was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also patient, encouraging, and engaging throughout the entire training. He made sure everyone in the class understood the techniques, answered all of our questions, and gave us hands-on experience that made a huge difference in our learning. His passion for coffee and teaching really showed!

If you’re looking to improve your barista skills, even if you are new to the coffee business, or an existing coffee business, or just to perfect your craft, I highly recommend Seattle Barista Academy. Their training is thorough, hands-on, and absolutely worth it. Thank you again to Paulo and the team for an unforgettable experience!”

“Leaving a review as a former employee from 2017 - this is the only school that I would send my daughter to out of the 3 that I worked at back then! Mountainside was a fantastic place. They really cared about the kids. We were always outside with them when it was nice out. The curriculum and structure of the day was great. We did lots of water activities, music time, and crafts. When there were issues with behavior, it was handled in a very gentle and parent-informed way. That’s why I would trust this place with my own daughter now. Definitely a great choice for childcare!”

“We have had a wonderful experience at KinderCare Auburn, and we are so grateful to the amazing staff for taking such great care of our son.

A special thank you to Jessica, Holly, Ms. Kim, Taylor, and Ms. Berry. They are all caring, patient, and supportive teachers who truly make a difference.

Jessica has always listened carefully to our questions and concerns. Even when we didn’t have major issues, she took the time to listen, explain everything clearly, and make us feel comfortable. Her support and communication have been outstanding.

Holly has also been incredibly kind and helpful, always making us feel welcome and supported.

A special thank you to Ms. Kim. Although she is a newer teacher, our son absolutely loves her. It’s heartwarming to see how excited he is to be with her, and it’s clear that she has built a wonderful bond with him in such a short time.

Taylor and Ms. Berry have also been fantastic. Their kindness, patience, and dedication have helped our son feel comfortable, safe, and happy at daycare.

“We are so thankful for the time our son spent at Learning Land. When we needed care early on in his life, the staff were so kind, patient, and caring with him, which meant so much to us as parents. Ms. Cristal and Ms. Sam were especially wonderful, and even now he still asks about them and talks about his friends by name.

It says a lot that his memories of Learning Land are so positive. We always felt like he was cared for, understood, and supported while he was there. We’re truly grateful for the role they played in his early years and would absolutely recommend Learning Land to other families looking for a caring and nurturing environment.”

“Sooo my sons been going here for a lil over 2years. I am so glad they've replaced the front desk lady.. the previous one was kinda rude. The new one is knowledgeable, kind, actually talks to you like a person.
All the staff are really kind, helpful, understanding. My son can be difficult but I love that they've helped be consistent in potty training him with me. The classes are smaller for them to easily play, learn, grow at their pace. They are super helpful with making sure he's transported to school & back safely via the bus. They have also made sure the back fence, for outside play is locked so there's no escapees as they are near a busy road.. However my son and I really enjoy going here. My son has grown soo much here and I totally appreciate the staff”

“My kids both have gone to this daycare for about 2 years now and I can confidently say that I trust the staff that work here, 100%. My daughter has gone here, 5 days a week, since she was 3 months old. My son attends 5 days during the summer. The staff has gone above and beyond to help me every and any time I’ve ever needed them and I appreciate them all so much. Both of my children look forward to coming here and they know each every one of the staff members. Every single one of the people that work here are so kind, reliable and genuine. I feel so lucky to bring my children to a place where I know for a fact that everyday, they are safe, and cared for.”

“My daughter is currently a student in the preschool program and I could not be happier! Who lives here from Maryland in the spring and they've been so welcoming all of the staff, the director and the children everybody was super happy the food is good it really is her second home ?”

“This is the first day care I have put my children in. And I have to admit my children have found their second and third mamas there. 🥹very grateful for the staff at East Hill KinderCare. This is our 3rd summer at KinderCare and my kids love every single teacher they have had. We have been in all the classes and felt love in every single one!!! One of my favorite parts is getting updates any time my kids do anything, eat, sleep, bathroom and pictures of their daily activities. 🥰 definitely makes being away from them easier.”

“My daughter who graduates high school in a week use to be in Ms. Sara’s classroom back in 2010 at her previous location. I also had the opportunity to work with her at the same daycare and I saw first hand what a great teacher Sara is. She always treated her kids and their parents with so much respect. She was very personable with the parents and I always felt comfortable knowing my daughter was in her care. She built such a rapport that we have kept in touch the past 16 years 😊 You would truly be lucky to have your child attend Childtime of Renton because I know that Sara’s extraordinary work value as a teacher has definitely transitioned into her role as a center director!”

“My child has been attending here for two years and loves it. As a parent, I feel like my child is safe and well cared for. I haven’t had any issues at all here. The staff is always friendly and has been very helpful on days when my child has higher anxiety at drop off. It is so helpful knowing they are in a safe environment with teachers who genuinely love them. The teachers are also great at uploading pictures and details of the day into the Kindercare app so I can check in while I’m at work. Overall, I highly recommend this center!”

“Feels like family. Teachers are around for a longtime so there’s stability for the children. Best daycare we have attended. Our daughter loved it and made some great friends.”

“My experience from the start has been wonderful. My son started care in the Infants room at 3 months old with Ms.Perla who is literally AMAZING! Especially with infants. I always felt my baby was happy, healthy, safe, and LOVED. This daycare has the best, most caring, and loving teachers from Ms.Perla to Ms.Carolyn, and Ms.Angela. I can’t say enough how much myself, my husband and our son feel very lucky to have found this place!! I feel very comfortable and secure knowing how well my child is cared for here. I like that they take pride in feeding the children all healthy foods.

The Director Whitney is VERY FRIENDLY and CARING and ALWAYS SO WELCOMING.

I highly recommend this center for your little one(s) & if there isn’t any space left; join the waitlist. You’ll be glad you did!

Thank you ALL for everything ?”

“The infant room is great at kids country in Maple Valley. Tayler heads up the room and takes great care of our boys. In fact once I get to school they are always excited to see the teachers and run to them as soon as they see them. This facility is full of family and heart.”

“This daycare has been wonderful with my son. The Director, the teachers, and staff have been so helpful and loving to my new baby. Couldn’t have picked a better place.”

“My daughter really enjoys coming to daycare and loves all the teachers she had so far. They are very caring and kind to the children and show her a lot of love everyday. She learns a lot of songs, sign language and talks a ton about her day at school. They do lots of activities that keep them busy.”

“Very appreciative of the easy but thorough enrollment process. They got my son in fast we're not pushy or blowing me up with sales calls while I took my time making my decision and when I was ready they made me feel secure that my son is safe in their hands. Thanks to Trisha, Deanna, and all the staff in the infant room for making this such a comfortable transition for my Babyboy.”

“I cannot express enough how grateful we are to have found Little Jack Corner's. From the very first day, it was clear that this is more than just a daycare—it's a nurturing, educational, and loving environment where children are truly cared for and encouraged to thrive.

The staff go above and beyond in every aspect. They treat each child with genuine warmth and patience, creating a space where kids feel safe, supported, and excited to learn. Our child has blossomed both socially and academically since starting here, and we credit that growth to the thoughtful curriculum and the staff’s dedication.

What sets LJC apart is their balance of structured learning with creative play. The teachers take the time to tailor activities to each child's interests and developmental level, turning everyday moments into opportunities for discovery and learning. Whether it's circle time, story sessions, art projects, or outdoor play, every part of the day is intentional and enriching.

Thank you to the entire team for your tireless effort, kindness, and the wonderful atmosphere you've created. LJC is a place where children are not just watched—they are cherished, guided, and inspired. We highly recommended Little Jack Corner's.”

“We started our son here about six months ago and have had a really positive experience.

The admin staff is really buttoned up and I feel well-informed as a parent. The curriculum is thorough and thoughtful and the lesson plans are creative with great variety, hitting on different developmental needs of the children. The outdoor space at the center is great. The children are fed high quality food with good variety. They're given an appropriate amount of responsibility. We've been really impressed with the support from the school as we've begun potty training.

Teacher turnover has been somewhat high, but I understand that's just part of the industry. Some teachers have been better than others but for the most part, we find the teachers to be caring, friendly, responsible, hardworking and trustworthy.

The app updates are fantastic, with multiple photos sent every day and explanations of the activities and lesson plans.

Overall I feel completely comfortable and trusting of BH when I drop my child off every morning. I know he's in really good hands and that his development, safety, and happiness are top priorities. The price tag is high, but it's worth it.”

“1) I like the vending machine snacks. There are vampires here but they keep it low-key.

2) Kind of irritated that the light wizards here dont teach you thunderbolt in the first year but if you let impatience overcome you that's the easiest way to turn evil. At least that's what the wizards say. Anyway I went to school here and can tell you many of the staff here are kind and want to teach you the way of light. Do not listen to evil wizards that whisper into your mind from the bowels of the underground cave system. They're supposed to be there to temp you to stray from the light and if you listen you will be turned into a conduit for evil.”

“Must be awesome! Last July, walked by and caught a glimpse of outdoor backside training gym they had set up. That day there was also a young Asian man who was about 6.5 and had 4ft wide pecs. Hunk! Reason alone to go and get slim!”

“I highly recommend Little Multilingual! The loving and caring staff create a supportive, multilingual environment where my child has thrived. It’s a fantastic place for growth and learning.”

“My son has been attending Family Circle Learning Center for years, and it has been a consistently positive experience. It’s a great childcare facility with caring, experienced teachers. I’ve never had any concerns or issues staff members are attentive and take the time to support children who may be struggling to adjust.

What I appreciate most is that the program is more than just play. The teachers truly teach, and the learning shows. My son just turned 5 and is able to write his name and is currently learning simple math. I feel they have done an excellent job preparing him for kindergarten next year.

My daughter also loves coming here. During school breaks and summer, they provide engaging activities, take field trips, and care for the children with the same dedication and warmth you would expect for their own.

If you’re looking for quality childcare and a place where your child will be in good hands, I highly recommend Family Circle Learning Center.”

“**Review for Arise and Shine Child Care**

I have had the pleasure of knowing Arise and Shine Child Care for a couple of years now, and I can confidently say that my experience has been nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we first enrolled, it was clear that the staff genuinely cares about the well-being and development of each child.

The environment is warm, welcoming, and vibrant, creating a perfect space for children to learn and grow. The caregivers are not only attentive and nurturing but also highly skilled in providing age-appropriate activities that stimulate curiosity and foster creativity. I have witnessed my child thrive in this supportive atmosphere, developing new skills and making friends along the way.

Communication with the staff has always been open and transparent. They keep parents informed about daily activities, milestones, and any concerns that may arise. It’s reassuring to know that my child is in such capable hands.

I am truly happy and satisfied with the care my child receives at Arise and Shine Child Care. I highly recommend them to any parent looking for a safe and enriching environment for their little ones. Thank you, Arise and Shine, for all”
