So happy to have found Cadence Prairie City for our family! My son recently started in their Barnyard classroom and I can't tell you how appreciative I am of the teachers in there. They are so helpful at drop off assisting my son and helping him settle in for the day as he struggles with separation anxiety. The love and dedication these teachers have for their students in their care is extremely apparent! I'm so happy we found Cadence for our son! The director and assistant director are so helpful and responsive! Whenever I have any questions or concerns, they're answered or addressed immediately and always in a professional manner. We love Cadence @Prairie City!!!!

I just wanted to provide an update to my previous reviews. We now have three children at Cadence. Each of our kids have been there since they were infants. They are 6, almost 4, and 1. I truly cannot express enough how incredibly wonderful Cadence's staff are. From the top down, director to every teacher, helper, and even the cook. They are all incredibly wonderful people who truly love and care about your children. After hearing recent horror stories about another local facility, I am just brought to tears as to how fortunate we are to have our kids at Cadence. Many of the teachers have been there since our oldest was an infant and they are now taking care of our youngest. It is a beautiful thing to see because these people are truly helping us raise our children. I would give them 100 stars if I could

Cadence Academy (Prairie City) deserves high praise for its amazing staff. About a month ago, our family came from another nearby preschool and the difference is night and day. During our tour, the Assistant Director, Kelly, was really friendly and open to answering all of my questions. I actually mistakenly called a different Cadence to schedule a tour but Kelly was kind enough to stop what she was doing and make time to take me around anyway. I was highly impressed at how large the outdoor play space is with many toys and activities for kids to play with. The school we came from was bare and only had 1 play structure outside so I could see how kids would enjoy Cadence's yard more.I believe the sign of a good school is the longevity of its teachers and directors. Many of their teachers are experienced and have been there a long time including a couple of the teachers in my son's class. Also, during my brief tour, I was greeted warmly by all the staff members that walked by. Parents will be happy to hear that lunch is included in their rates. This is a big win. Saves time in the morning and it encourages our son to try new foods as he sees his peers eating the same things. I hope Cadence never takes their lunch program away!Another cool program I like of theirs is Parents Night Out where you can drop your kiddo off for a few hours in the evening so Mom and Dad can go on a date night while the kids do fun activities. We haven't had a chance to try this out yet but how clever is this?Last week, the director, Rebecca, called me to let me know that our son fell while playing on the playground. His teachers took good care of him immediately putting ice on his "boo boo" and calming him down. We really appreciated their quick action and transparency about the incident. When I picked him up after school he was happy, acting fine, and told me what happened and how his teacher took care of him. I can't finish my review without mentioning how amazing Ms. Angel, Ms. Tami, and Mr. Bran are (Tigers Class). Our son is still adjusting to his new school envrionment and misses his old classmates but his new teachers are doing a great job getting him comfortable. I also love how the teachers update us accurately on how much of his snacks and lunch he's eaten. They also update each time our son goes potty and they take many pics of him throughout the day and share it with us through the app. Our old school wasn't as thorough about this so it is much appreciated. Admittedly, the first week of school I thought this is great but I bet after Week One their app entries will drop off. Happy to report that I was wrong. They're still updating me thoroughly and regularly! Whenever I send a note in the app, it's communicated by the directors to his teachers almost immediately. Impressive considering how busy they all are. Lastly, I really appreciate how welcoming our son's teachers are when we come to class for drop off and pickup. I never feel rushed out, they allow my husband and I to chat and observe, which is very reassuring for us. Thanks, Cadence Prairie City!

As a first time parent I was nervous about dropping off my infant at daycare when I went back to work after maternity leave. Kristal, Carmelita and Dawnee in the infant room at Cadence made the transition so easy. All three teachers go out of their way to make sure all of the babies are happy, engaged and learning. The Assistant Director and Director, Kelly and Rebecca, are so communicative and are always available to talk or answer questions. We feel so lucky to have found Cadence. Our son smiles so big every time we drop him off!

As first-time parents, my partner and I wanted to ensure our little one was getting the best care. At Cadence Academy, we're getting that and so much more! The staff is warm & welcoming, courteous and works with our child's needs and our preferences as best they can. From time spent outdoors to dance breaks and art projects in the classroom, we are grateful to have found Cadence and are excited to see how much our little one is thriving and enjoying it. Thank you, Cadence Team!

I've been a stay at home mom for 6 years . When I finally decided I was ready to return to the workforce, my anxiety was through the roof looking for childcare . Needing to know that my child would be happy , safe , mentally stimulated and getting the proper peer socialization she needs to thrive and grow is paramount too myself and my husband . After going to numerous schools , I was scrolling through my Facebook and came across Cadence Academy and right away fell in love with the community and communication of the facility and it's Director Rebecca and Asst. Director Kelly. On my tour of the school I was greeted by Rebecca an Kelly , with smiles and open arms . The staff was very engaging and attentive to the children , extremely clean classrooms, large open recess yard . I loved the large windows of the rooms as you walk down the hall or look across classes to see how each room is lead by their educators . My daughters first day I was nervous, more so then her as she had never been away from me , I walked her into her class , introduced her too her teachers Mrs. Tammi and Mrs. Angel and she eighth away hugged them tan back hugged me and said " bye bye mommy! " and ran off . I was a bit choked up to see how quickly she went off to make new friends and explore her room , the teachers also have been working on her potty training switch is a massive help ! Each morning she wakes up , mom it's time to go toSchool ! Let's go see some friends ! I can't help but hug Mrs. Tammi everyday I drop my baby off , to have that level of peace of mind that my baby is being cared for exceptionally is a parents wish come true . Thank you Cadence Academy for all you do . We love you

We searched and reviewed many places in the Folsom area before landing on Cadence for our three children and we are so happy we did! We can't say enough positive things about the entire staff, they truly care about our children (ages 4, 3, and 1) and our kids adore their teachers. Rebecca and Kelly put in an incredible amount of time making sure the school year has fun events and activities. There are a number of things that Cadence does well (to name a few: they have navigated the challenges of COVID-19 in a safe and transparent way, they prepare snacks and meals daily that our kids enjoy, they provide opportunities for kids to join sports and dance programs while at school, they create engaging daily classroom activities that are age appropriate and fun, they sponsor events like summer water play days and family/class get-togethers that the kids always look forward to, they post daily picture updates that always are a highlight to see in the middle of a work day) but what really sets the school apart is that everyone we have interacted with genuinely cares for the kids. It is sometimes hard to get our kids to come home at the end of the day! To the entire staff at Cadence, thank you for all the hard work you put in to create a safe and engaging environment for our kids! You guys rock.

LOVE this school and the staff, from the teachers, to the Asst. Director (Kelly) to the Director (Rebecca). They are all super nice and friendly. Both my kids go to school here and love all the staff. I receive updates and pictures of them throughout the day which makes me happy and comfortable seeing how they are doing. AM snack, lunch and PM snack are all provided which makes it easier for me to not have to worry about what to pack for them to eat. The school is very transparent about everything - newsletters, calendars, lunch/snack menus are sent out monthly. I send emails/questions frequently and Kelly and Rebecca are both always very responsive and flexible with any requests I may have. I appreciate both of them very much!My youngest is 2 years old and I started potty training him at home at the beginning of January. When he returned to school after being out a few weeks, his first two days were rough, but his teachers were consistent and continued to be patient with him and teach him how to go to the bathroom. He has not had an accident after day 2. They actually sent all of his diapers now after day 2! He now goes all by himself from start to finish and I am so proud of him and glad the teachers did not give up!Would HIGHLY recommend this school!!!
