Schools in Scottsdale, AZ

“As a parent, entrusting our child into the care of others is one of the most significant decisions we make. From the moment we stepped through the doors of DMA, it was clear that this institution was not just a place of learning, but a nurturing safe-space for our little one. We had the opportunity to have an introductory video call/interview with our child’s teachers-to-be prior to enrollment, giving further reassurance. My wife and I can tell the curriculum at DMA is thoughtfully designed to stimulate young minds while encouraging creativity and exploration. Our child has reached so many markers and milestones that most parents hope for during early development, and we can only imagine the environment presented at DMA has help guide this trend.”

“My son started in the infant room and just graduated from transitional kindergarten at First Steps. We’re thankful for the staff and how they helped my son grow over the years.Pros:1. The staff was always patient, friendly and professional. I never had to worry about how my son was treated in any of the classes. Some staff members have been there for a long time too!2. Communication was fantastic. They have an app and will even post pictures.3. No screens! There are activities and lessons planned throughout the day. I loved seeing all the artwork my son created.4. The cost was very reasonable for childcare.I can’t really think of any cons.”

“We are thrilled to have found PVCS after moving to AZ! We send our 2 year old and 5 year old here and only have fantastic things to say about the staff, teachers, curriculum, and (recently updated and shaded) play areas. Even better, the school has a true community feel and goes above and beyond to accommodate the needs of their students and families. We know - due to my work schedule ramping up over the past few months, we’ve had to increase the kids’ school hours on several occasions, and Ms. Debbie, the school’s director, is always understanding and flexible.We are grateful to have found a school that the kids are incredibly excited to attend, where respect, kindness and curiosity are taught and encouraged each and every day. Given the school’s play-based model, they make school both educational and fun - all that we could ask for as parents!”

“Our daughter has been here for over 6 months. We looked at all the schools in the area, literally almost all of them. You can tell Chaya is doing this out of her heart and love for children. Our daughter has grown so much in that time. She was in an in-home daycare prior and while it was good, she didn't take that next step and didn't encourage potty training. Accidents are almost non-existent. The food is so fun, we love the variety. I sometimes come in the afternoon and have snack with the kids before pickup ;) Plus they have goats and a garden!”

“We recently enrolled our Daughter in the infant program at Goddard.From the moment we set up a tour of the facility, speaking with Ms. Tally and Ms. Bettina, to meeting with the owner, Scott. It has been a night and day difference from our previous school.Scott is on site daily and takes pride in knowing the names of each of his enrolled families.We are greeted with smiles and hellos every day.We are treated with respect and we can truly tell that everyone enjoys being there.HUGE shoutout to Ms.Mariah and Ms.Marisol. They keep us updated on how our daughter is doing and take a genuine interest in bettering the environment to cater to the needs of all the infants.You can tell that these two truly enjoy what they do and enjoy being their day in and day out.We couldn’t ask for better teachers or a better school.Thank you for putting our minds at ease and taking care of our baby while we can’t be with her! ”

“As a parent, finding the perfect daycare for your child can be a daunting task, but let me tell you, our experience with Kiddie Kampus has been nothing short of exceptional! The staff truly go above and beyond to create a nurturing and stimulating environment for the children. Their dedication to providing a safe and loving space is evident in every aspect of their care. Kiddie Kampus has exceeded our expectations in every way possible. We feel incredibly grateful to have found such a wonderful daycare for our daughter, and wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent seeking a loving and enriching environment for their little one.”

“LSP is truly a second family for my two children. My son has been going here since we was 9 months old and is about to graduate to Kindergarten at the end of this year. We loved it so much that we decided to enroll our daughter at just 9 weeks old because we knew she would be 100 percent taken care of. We have always been able to check in on our kiddos whenever needed and get constant updates from their App about how our kids are doing for the day including what and when they are doing things like eating, playing, learning. Ms. Lydia and Ms. Taylor are our sons teachers and they have fully prepared him to start his school journey off right with teaching valuable skills like reading, writing, and creative learning. Our daughter is always completely taken care of thanks to her wonderful teachers Ms. Neicey, Ms. Denaysha, and Ms. Shelbi and she truly loves them like they are her family! I never leave with my children upset, they are always happy to be there with all their teachers! Of course non of this would be the case if it wasn't for their incredible leadership from Latryce, Daytona, and Melanie! Honestly your kids will be in the best care with these wonderful people who love them as if they are their own children everyday.Thank you LSP for being such an incredible support for our family!”

“This Preschool has been a game changer for us. Drop offs are usually hard for our son but we know he’s in the best care with the most caring teachers. It makes us feel good knowing we can trust the teachers to make our son feel comfortable. The school itself is so cute and SUPER clean. One of the main things I noticed about this preschool when touring was how engaged the teachers were with the children. We love the teachers and are so confident our son thrives here. The staffs communication is super quick whenever we have questions. They update us through an app throughout the day so you know what your child’s doing, what they eat, when they use the bathroom, and send photos throughout the day. Our son has learned so much from coming here and we’re always amazed when he starts talking about something we’ve never heard him talk about. The teachers and owner even gave us pointers on how to potty train our son which has been helping him. It’s a clean, healthy, loving, learning environment and we would recommend this preschool to anyone.”

“CLA has been the best part about our move to Arizona. The staff is always so happy, when my kids and I walk down the halls the staff greets us and acknowledges us every time. There is always music playing and smiles all around you. They host events that you can attend which is such a fun way to be included in your child’s day. My kids are so smart and so loved. They truly enjoy going to school and often they are literally running to their classroom door. I couldn’t thank CLA enough for the environment they create not only for my kids but also for me!”

“My son has been going here for a few years now and he loves it! The staff are very kind and friendly. The facility is nice, clean, and organized. I actually went to this daycare when I was a child over 30 years ago and I'm happy my son loves it too!”

“Miro International is an absolute gem of a school in our neighborhood. They really go above and beyond when it comes to the children, with their hands-on approach and genuine passion. My son's excitement to go to school every day is a testament to how much he loves it there. Learning Spanish at a young age is plus ! The school's cleanliness, professionalism, and caring staff make it even more special. I trust his teachers , and I love we found a school that cater to our needs !”

“Couldn’t be happier with Primrose School of North Scottsdale. We know that when our two children go to school each day, they will be loved, learn so many things, and be well taken care of. The staff is absolutely amazing and they go above and beyond ALWAYS!! The director, associate director, and education director have made this school feel like a home and a community. Also… a lot of these negative reviews are from when the school was under old ownership. This new leadership team has completely turned it around.”

“We cannot praise this center enough! This was our COVID kiddos first preschool experience and Ms. Ana made it a seamless transition. Our son had a tough time at drop off the first few weeks and Ms. Ana always went out of her way to make him feel comfortable and send us many updates through out the day. We truly felt that we were a team with the staff at Kindercare making preschool a positive experience. We are also pleasantly surprised with how much our son is learning. He has grown leaps and bounds educationally as well as social emotional skills and cannot wait to watch him thrive in kindergarten and beyond.”

“Unique, premium health & wellness community center for individuals and families, of all ages regardless of faith; which delivers relationship, community and well being. Unlike gyms and health clubs, The J provides a more complete & innovative array of educational, social, health, and wellness programming in a safe and secured environment.”

“This daycare git my granddaughter above where she needs to to be to start kindergarten as well as she has never came home sick from her daycare... love this place”

“The nicest, caring place to take your child to. They listen to your concerns and show they care. Very helpful and well organized. Amazing feedback and very helpful. Especially for school recommendations. Would recommend to all family and friends.”

“Global Minds is the place to send your children to start them out on their journey to understand the global landscape. This is the place where you can find a caring group of teachers who are actively teaching your children two languages - Mandarin and Spanish. Additionally because of the scope of the school you find an amazing community of parents who share an equally great view of exposing their children to the wider world. Global Minds is an outstanding example of the great landscape of education evolving in the state of Arizona.”

“We have been with this Whiz Kidz location for the last year and a half and they are great! The attentive, engaged teachers and staff are always welcoming and all know our daughter by name. Great communication always and very responsive to us as parents. We recommend them to anyone looking for a great environment for their kiddos!”

“My family came to Arizona just for 2 weeks. It was a pleasure to find open church and available time on Easter Day. Easter services were inspiring. Everything was great organized. Thanks to Church and all volunteers for doing such great job!”

“HUGE THANK YOU to the Director Monica and her team for not giving up on my son! My son has big feelings (what toddler doesn't) and no other daycare has been able to properly handle my son, care for my son or teach my son how to work through his big feelings. The past three daycares would do nothing but send my son home.Monica is not your typical director. She is very hands on and will actually get to know you and your child / children. It feels so good to know my child is well taken care of. My son even asks to go to school on the weekends. That's how much he loves it here.The educational programs are not only fun and engaging but also well-thought-out and developmentally appropriate. My child has shown remarkable growth in various skills. I appreciate the structured activities that balance learning with play, ensuring a well-rounded experience for the kids.Communication has been a strong point, and I appreciate the regular updates and insights into my child's daily activities. It's reassuring to know that the team values transparency and keeps parents in the loop about their child's experiences, milestones, and any special moments throughout the day.Additionally, the cleanliness and safety measures implemented at Kids Incorporated are noteworthy. They really prioritize the health and well-being of the children.Thank you Monica and all the teachers for being so welcoming and taking such great care of all the kids!!”

“Scottsdale Child Care & Learning Center offers both the structure and freedom that children need to thrive. You can tell their staff has a passion and affinity for their work. Big bonus: They have a heart for Christ and it reflects in all that they do. I'd recommend anyone and everyone to SLC.”
