“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!”

“We are delighted to send our 4 year old son here for summer camps. He did full 2 months of weekly camps this year. All Teachers and the owner of the place are exceptionally kind, warm, cheerful, welcoming and radiate positive energy that has a great influence on kids.
The classes are full of activities, learning, music, dance, arts and crafts, games..a great exposure to all forms of learning. Our son looks forward to going there everyday. Few times during pick up they involved the parents in some fun activities with our kid and they were totally memorable experiences for us.
This place is a true gem!!! Highly recommend.”

“This KinderCare is absolutely amazing! Truly I love leaving my sweet angel baby girl here in such great care! The infant teacher Ms. Deepali is truly the best and made us feel comfortable bring our baby here from when she was 4 months and is now 10 months and thriving. She is so social and happy and is growing so well. Everyone loves her and treats her so well. I always get updates and pictures and anytime she’s ever been sick or not herself I’ve been notifies right away! Mr. Matt is a great center director and always has fun activities for the kids and sweet and kind events that help out families! Thank you for taking such good care of our sweet baby!”

“We had a wonderful experience with this daycare. From day one, we knew our daughter was in safe, caring hands. Special thanks to Ms. Lakshmi and Ms. Mirasol for their warmth and dedication, even after moving away, our daughter still misses them. The entire staff was nurturing and truly invested in the kids. Highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe, supportive, and loving environment for their child.”

“There are so many wonderful things I could say about our experience at LPW! The people are so incredibly welcoming and friendly, the environment is warm and clean, the communication is clear, and most of all, my 1 year old absolutely loves it! From the very moment we walk in the door in the morning, she is greeted by her teachers saying things like “your teacher loves/missed you!” I couldn’t recommend LPW enough!”

“My daughters have been going to Sundance for about a year now. I have been so impressed by the warmth and patience of the teachers there, and how it genuinely feels like a small community -- all the teachers know both my kids names and keep track of what's going on in their lives. We've been in four classes: my older daughter in Pre-K 1 and then Pre-K 2, and my younger in Infants and First Steps, and I have had positive experiences in all.”

“My daughter has been going to Lakemont Academy since 2019 and she absolutely loves school and her teachers. Ms. Gitta and her staff have been wonderful and so supportive towards the growth of my toddler. We didn’t have the best experience w the childcare prior and Lakemont Academy has been a fresh of breath air for my family. We truly trust the staff and their expertise. My daughter will def be finishing her preschooling here. Def recommend!”

“The Belltown Bright Horizons location has been an incredible experience for our family. The staff and admin here are truly wonderful — warm, supportive, and genuinely invested in the children’s well-being. The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to help kids grow in all areas.

In my child’s class, Briceda, Amberlee, and Ashley are exceptional. They are kind, caring, and always have the children’s best interests at heart. I love how, during drop-offs, they get down to the child’s level, offer a hug, and talk about their feelings. They teach kids how to regulate emotions through breathing exercises, finger tracing, and reading wonderful books about feelings. It’s such a gift to see kids learning emotional skills at such a young age.

The class activities are also outstanding — from creative projects to dedicated Music, Movement, and Art days each week.

The leadership team, Bridget and Angela and Alexa, who have worked together for a long time, are equally amazing. I truly believe their strong leadership is the reason this center runs so smoothly and has such a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

I can’t recommend the Belltown Bright Horizons enough!”

“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 ?”

“I am so glad we booked the Dizzybus to come to my daughters birthday! She bus arrived promptly at the scheduled time and the kids all screamed, "THE BUS IS HERE!!!!". There were kids ranging from 2-10 years old at our party and there was plenty for all the kids to do. It was adorable to see the kids show off their gold medals at the end. I'll definitely recommend the Dizzybus to all of my friends. I hope to have the opportunity to book it again!”

“We moved to Washington from Hawaii in 2022 while I was 20 weeks pregnant with my third child. The first preschool that we chose for our then 3 year old was not a pleasant experience. I learned that I had to do more of my own due diligence before choosing the next school.Let me just say that I really felt like we struck gold with Pixie Hill. I am VERY grateful for the wonderful teachers (Ms Ashley, Ms Rebecca and Ms Bailey) at Pixie. It is because of them that my son has had such an enjoyable experience this last year. He asks us every day at pick up if he can stay at school longer, and even on the weekends - he looks forward to Mondays (cant say I feel the same haha).One thing that really sold me before we ever got to visit the school was the large back yard/play area, and knowing that the kiddos would be spending time outside everyday (rain or shine). The extra bonus is the location--not only is it accessible to Mercer Island families, but also convenient for families in Seattle and Bellevue.Wish we had more time at Pixie, but looking forward to when my youngest will be able to attend.”

“Our 9-year-old son has been at Learning Land Kent Campus for 2.5 years, and we've had a consistently positive experience throughout his time here. We've seen him grow, thrive, and truly enjoy his days. Every time I dropped him off every morning, I always noticed Miss Tai and the kids who were there were welcoming and excited to see and play with him. ---and as a parent, that's everything when you see your son is happy and looks forward to being there.

Over the years, there have been some changes in staff and management, but all of them have been for the better. The current management, Miss Christa and Miss Morgan, are very organized, communicative, and genuinely involved in creating a safe and enriching environment for the kids. Just recently, they're working on renovating and updating the indoor/outdoor campus.

The teachers -- especially Ms. Christa and Morgan played an important role in my son's development and also in our community. Thoughtfully planned family activities are age-appropriate, creative, to help the kids explore and learn, and engage the families.

We truly appreciate the regular updates, photos, and open communication from staff, which helped us feel connected to his daily experiences even while at work or busy life schedule.

The team is dedicated not just to childcare, but to building a strong community.

I highly recommend it to any family looking for a caring and nurturing childcare center.”

“The team here play a huge role in my child’s development just in the short time she’s been there. She’s taken care of, allowed to express her self and play with other kids her age. They offer dance and gym classes for my child which she loves and has inspired her personality so much here at home. I’m grateful to the teachers, staff and The director to know my child education and care is in good hands while getting as much socialization as she can??”

“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 ?”

“I cannot say enough good things about Bright Horizons Mercer Island! Our experience has been amazing, thanks to the incredible team who go above and beyond daily. Their dedication to our son's growth and well-being has given us confidence we made the best choice.

Savannah and Sarah made us feel like part of the Bright Horizons family when we enrolled. Their professionalism and dedication to creating a safe, nurturing, and educational environment are evident every day.

Ms. Behnaz is uniquely impressive. Her warmth and kindness make every kid feel unique and loved. She has a magical way of making learning fun and engaging, and our son comes home excited to show what he did that day. Ms. Benhaz's calming nature has positively impacted our son's development.

Ms. Magdalena is another superstar at this daycare. His energy and enthusiasm are contagious! She creates engaging activities that keep kids active and entertained. She truly cares about each kid and ensures they feel included and valued.

Ms. Tammy rounds out this fantastic trio. Her patience and dedication are unparalleled. She has a unique talent for connecting with the kids and helping them navigate their emotions. Ms. Tammy has been critical in gently and effectively helping our son with his challenging moments.

We couldn't be happier with our choice, Bright Horizons Mercer Island, and are so grateful for the team's patience and dedication during our son's journey from three to five years old. I highly recommend Bright Horizons to parents looking for a place where they genuinely care about their kid's growth and happiness. Thank you, Behnaz, Magdalena, Tammy, Sarah, and Savannah!”

“I really appreciated the warm, nurturing environment that Primrose created. The teachers were caring, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth. I liked the balance between structured learning and play, which helped build both academic foundations and social-emotional skills. The daily updates and photos gave me confidence that my child was safe, engaged, and happy. It was clear that a lot of thought went into the curriculum and classroom activities, and I felt like my child was always learning something new while having fun. The sense of community among staff and families was also something I really valued.”

“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.”

“Our child has attended for 2+ years and loves the teachers and their classmates. The directors and teachers are professional, communicate well and address any concerns proactively. Love seeing all the kids art in the walls and getting updates on the app throughout the day, too!”

“We cannot be more pleased with a childcare facility. The teachers are incredible, the kids here are a hoot and inclusive, and amazingly, Circle Time keeps prices reasonable. I feel safe when my kids are at Circle time, and I feel like the teachers truly love the kids they take care of every day.”

“This center and it's staff have been a part of my family for a little over 4 years. I came here desperate with an infant and toddler. I had to abruptly remove my children from another center and was overwhelmed with the thought of a 2 year old transitioning in a new environment. Ms. Patrician and Ms. Elizabeth were so warm and welcoming. I felt at ease from the first meeting.Fast forward my kids are still there happy and thriving. The teachers here know my children and their little personalities Ms. Patricia works hard to make sure she hires teachers who are committed to working with children and preparing them for real life scenarios. We work as a team to ensure whatever comes up or challenges they are having that we are on the same page.With this pandemic this center remained open to help essential workers continue to work! They have been accommodating and understanding while putting themselves at risk. I am and will forever be grateful to this center and all of the staff.”

“We had a really good experience at KinderCare Factoria. The Center Director, Ms.Agnes, and Assistant Director, Ms. Raksha, were always kind, helpful, and easy to talk to. They listened to any concerns we had and made us feel welcome from the very beginning.

Our daughter was in the infant classroom and loved going every day. She would get so excited as soon as we got to the center. Her teachers — especially Ms. Rainbow and Ms. Moon — were so caring, gentle, and loving with her. It was clear how much they cared about the kids.

The center is also very organized, and well maintained, and I never felt stressed dropping her off because I knew she was safe and happy.

We had to move her to a daycare closer to home, as the commute was getting a bit too long for us. Ms. Agnes and Ms. Raksha were incredibly supportive during the transition — they even gave us helpful recommendations and guided us through the process.

If you’re looking for a daycare where your child will be truly cared for, I’d highly recommend this place.”

“There are not enough words to describe how wonderful this place is! My son has been at East Hill Kindercare for almost 2 years and we have really enjoyed the experience. Ms. Abby (Director) is always there for parents and you can tell that she loves being in the class with kids too! She is just amazing!
All the teachers have also been a blessing in my son’s life. He comes home talking about them all the time. As a mom, the most important thing for me is to see my child happy and enjoying his time at school, and I can say for sure he gets that everyday! He has also learned so many life skills, communication and academics!

Our family loves this place and its AMAZING team!”

“The staff at Grace Children’s Center have been nothing short of loving, caring, kind, informative, communicative and warm from day one. They love our son and care for him in ways that leave me confident he is safe, nurtured, and learning. From outside time to water play, story time to nap time, socializing to individual engagement, we are grateful for their attention to each kid and their care for all.”

“Teachers are devoted, assuring kids are kept safe and in a learning environment. On a daily basis I see how the Teachers care so much for each little one, when they walk in the classroom, we are fortunate to have found Denise, and there is such a strong mixed culture.”

“Our daughter has been attending this daycare since she was an infant. All the teachers are very kind and my daughter loves spending time at the daycare. Big shoutout to Ms Kayla in Tod A who is amazing!”

“Our family has been with the school for 3 years. The Head of the School is a loving, sophisticated, and passionate leader, and you will know from the first time meeting her that she loves educating young minds. We love this school because it has a strong academic, leadership, and character development focus. I have found the parent community to be warm and supportive. Diversity is truly celebrated, and we love being a part of this community.”

“My family has been apart of this center since my oldest was a toddler. I absolutely love this center and the staff here. The director and assistant director are very communicative and helpful with every interaction I have had with them. The staff members from infant to their school aged staff have been absolutely wonderful. They supported my oldest while she had a difficult time with drop offs in the morning, encouraged her to explore, and make new friends. They are current partners when it comes to problem solving my youngest refusing a bottle through out the day.I am very grateful for everyone at this center. I am sad to see my oldest leaving this center as she and my family have had a wonderful time with her time here. In the meantime, I love that I still have a few more years here.”

“Our experience with Bright Horizons at Sunset has been phenomenal. As a first time mom, I was so nervous leaving my baby when returning to work, but the teachers are so responsible and loving. The administrative staff is so responsive and answered all my questions along the way. The app was so helpful in making me feel connected to my baby and gave me peace of mind while I was at work. Overall, I would recommend this bright horizons to anyone looking for a safe, fun, and educational place to send their child!”
