“We are so thankful to have found Cadence Academy Preschool. They have been so flexible with our part time schedule and provide outstanding care. Ms. Cady, Ms. Emily and Ms. Monce are AMAZING!! They are thoughtful, caring and energetic. The staff and teachers provide updates throughout the day and communicate well. We love Cadence!”

“Our child has been at VCA for over 3 years. Every second she has spent there I have felt 100% confident that she is taken care of. She has grown leaps and bounds since she first started at VCA. Their focus on learning, development, and fun has created a great environment for our Daughter to thrive. Ms. Jonyce and Ms. Jocelyn are truly amazing teachers / leaders. They know exactly what our Daughter needs to continue to grow!”

“The park is gorgeous! It's really beautiful right now with the green grass and beautiful fall trees. The park has a playground, soccer field, tennis courts, and a softball field.”

“Everyone at BELC truly cares about helping children develop. They provide a nurturing environment and help cultivate broad skills while also focusing on individual interests. Our son wanted to read independently, and Ms. Jodie took time each day to help him on that journey. Healthy snacks and meals and flexible aftercare options are available, and communication and billing is streamlined in the Brightwheel app. BELC is the place to go for Pre-K education.”

“We are so happy at Little Sunshine’s! The teachers are wonderful, caring, and so involved with each child. The front desk management is cheerful, warm, helpful, and always willing to pitch in wherever needed. Our son is excited to go to school and loves to tell us all about all the fun and engaging activities each day. Our son is happy, well cared for, and thriving in every area we could hope for. He is closely bonded with his teachers and friends and looks forward to seeing them each day. Ms. Monika and Ms. Whitney are amazing! We love Little Sunshine’s and are so happy to partner with them to ensure our son receives the best care and education. LSP staff, we cannot thank you enough ❤️”

“I am so blessed to have BBM available for my daughter’s early childhood education! As a 3rd generation Arab American Muslim, I wanted to put my daughter in a Montessori environment but was always worried about her losing out on Arabic and Islamic tarbiyah. I put her in a well-respected secular Montessori school for half days when she was 2 and not yet potty trained. However, I knew that I preferred a program with Arabic and Islam for the following year so that the principles I was teaching my daughter could be strengthened while away from me at school too. And BBM checked all of those boxes for me! My 3.5 year old daughter now comes home everyday with a smile on her face as she asks to count together and tells me all about South America. She is also the one who reminds me, my husband, her grandparents, her cousins (everyone!) to say the duah before eating. It’s such a relief to know that I am able to give her an education that is rich in academics, emotional learning, English, AND Arabic and Islamic principles. Thank you so much BBM!!!”

“My son has been in the program at Montessori of Woodridge for about two months. When he started it he had the verbal skills of a two year old at the age of four. Since he has been in the program, his language has exploded. The staff takes the time to understand what each child needs and gives them the tools to learn. I would recommend this program highly.”

“I love this place because they always have activities to do with the children, inside and outside the center.I have taken my daughter since she was 10 months old and she has learned many things from the teachers. They are always attentive to the children in all aspects. I am very pleased with the services they provide and I recommend them 100%.”

“My daughter has been enrolled at Bright Horizons in Downers Grove for 18 months now. I'm very happy with the care and enrichment she's received! The teachers and support staff are amazing, the activities are fun/instructional, and the facilities are beautiful. My daughter started in the "Ones" program when she was 14 months old and I look forward to watching her grow at Bright Horizons throughout her early childhood.”

“The teachers are well educated and committed. The classrooms are well structured. There doesn’t seem to be any turnover. The school staff is very thorough in keeping up with their communication through emails and monthly newsletters. There is always a staff member available to speak to at any given time. Couldn’t be happier at Goddard in Darien!”

“Have been working with these lovely people for 2 years now and they are wonderful. They keep up with the kids individual needs and really work with the parents when they are struggling because they care and do whatever they can!!!”

“Just started 4 months ago but love it so far. The teachers, facility, and curriculum are all great. Coming from a different daycare (in the city), we're impressed and happy so far!”

“My two year old and infant attend ALC #4 in La Grange Park. We started in April 2023 and have been SO pleased with our experience. We were transferring from our Lincoln Park daycare and found it to be a very smooth transition. The teachers have been very nurturing and my two year old is genuinely happy walking into school each day to see her teachers and friends. They offer great programming, ample outside time and lots of arts and crafts. My infant just started and I feel very comfortable entrusting her care to the wonderful teachers here. It's a big decision finding the right fit for full day childcare and I am very happy our family found ALC #4.”

“I have a hard time finding quality child care at an affordable price and this is exactly that. The teachers are nice and friendly, the center is clean, and my daughter loves attending. She is happy and I love the positive nurturing environment. Highly recommend!”

“If you're looking for a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment for your little ones, look no further than KinderCare! As a parent, I can confidently say that this daycare is top-notch in every way.The Director Jen and her staff are incredibly kind, compassionate, and knowledgeable. They truly care about each child and take the time to get to know them as individuals. They also have years of experience in early childhood education and know how to create a positive, supportive learning environment.The facilities are clean and well-maintained, with plenty of toys, books, and activities to keep children engaged and learning throughout the day. The outdoor play area is also fantastic, with plenty of space for little ones to run, play, and explore. They are also teaching them about agriculture with the garden.But what really sets them apart is the sense of community and connection that they foster. The staff members are always happy to communicate with parents and provide updates on their child's progress, and they organize fun events and activities for families throughout the year. Our favorite has been the Halloween activities. My children have attended KinderCare for a total of 4 years. I trust them wholeheartedly.Overall, I can't recommend KinderCare of Pinewood, highly enough. If you're looking for a daycare that will provide your child with the love, care, and education they deserve, this is the place to go.”

“My son attended this daycare for 4 years and he loved it. The teachers are always in contact with what happens with your child. You grow a family with them the teachers are very patient and loving towards the children.”

“We are so blessed to have found The Philip Rock Center and School (PRC) for my daughter. The amazing staff go above and beyond to make sure that her needs and all the students' needs are met. I love how they are involved in numerous activities at PRC and in the community. PRC has been life changing for my daughter and my family! She has been at PRC for 10 years (she is 19 now) and has learned so many life skills and that is because of the wonderful, caring, selfless staff at PRC! My daughter would not be as independent as she is today had we not found PRC! It takes a special person to do the exhausting, thankless work that I see the staff selflessly do and they do it with their whole hearts. It is clear to see how much they love their job and the students. My daughter is happy, well cared for, and loves PRC! I am truly grateful that we found PRC!”

“Everyone here is so wonderful! We are first time parents and were so nervous about sending our little guy to daycare when my maternity leave was over, but the incredibly kind staff has made the transition easier than expected. We made the right choice with Woodridge North!”

“Our daughter has been going to KinderCare since she was 7 weeks old and LOVES going to each morning! She is constantly learning and excited to show us what she's done each day when we pick her up after work!! I can't say enough about the teachers and directors who work there! We are now expecting a son within the next few weeks and he will also be going to KinderCare! It's a nice feeling knowing our kids are so well cared for while we're at work!”

“I can't say enough positive things about HCP. My oldest child started preschool there last September in the Just For Me Two class, and it has been wonderful. She has so much fun playing with the other kiddos, and she absolutely loves her teachers -- Ms. Lynn, Ms. Cathy, and Ms. Noemi. They are all so patient and kind, and it is obvious they really love teaching. They are very communicative -- sharing lesson plans and photos from the classroom, and making time to talk one-on-one with each family. The classroom is clean and well appointed with age-appropriate toys and a variety of activity areas. HCP has been great for my daughter's development, and I love that she is learning organically through play. The co-op setup also really creates a sense of community and encourages relationship-building amongst not just the kids, but their families as well. We love HCP and highly recommend!”

“Cannot say enough amazing things about Creme and the care they provide for my children. I found this on a whim during the pandemic when we needed to switch to childcare and the minute I walked in, I knew my child was going to thrive in the care. The teachers and staff could not provide a better place for my children to be cared for. My daughter will be entering kindergarten next year so prepared because of the education that she receives from Creme. The facilities are a dream come true for children. Infant care is absolutely top notch as well the updates from teachers and opportunities my baby has to learn is more than I can ever think of at home. It is not easy to decide where to send your kids for care but Creme is the place that makes my family and my children full circle. My baby is so bored at home now because he absolutely loves being interacting with his friends already and my older child raves constantly about her teachers. Thank you Creme, Ms. Chris, Ms. Val, Ms. Jeanine and the ENTIRE staff. We are grateful everyday that you help us with caring and teaching our children in their formative years.”

“Our daughter have been there for 8 months and she is thriving. She is loved and cared for. She walks into the school and comes home everyday with a smile on her face. She is learning and is very social. We love her teachers and the directors there and highly recommend Kiddie Academy.”

“My daughter and I enjoy helping people as you volunteered to put food in peoples cars. It’s a wonderful church! We’re so blessed to be a part of volunteering at this church.”

“I love their parks! It may be a smaller park district but their parks are very beautiful and relaxing. Also, the staff are very kind people who go above and beyond. They were very helpful to my friend and I.”

“The cleanest and most respectful place to take my two and a half years old daughter!Administration is very helpful with every detail I may need during the time I bring my daughter to school. The most important thing is that she adapted very quickly to the environment there and the people. She is enjoying very much her time at school and she is missing her teacher during weekends. This is all happening because of the hard work and the way you treat our children at GHA.Her teacher, Miss Laura always takes care of my daughter needs and finds a solution for every problem. She has made this process so easy for me and my daughter too. I can’t thank her enough not only for her work as the teacher of my daughter, but also for the love and compassion that she gives to her when she is not feeling good.I am so happy to have decided to bring my daughter at this school because she is happy every morning, comfortable during the time at school and healthy!Thank you all and special thanks to Miss Laura!”

“I love my experiences at CPC. It is such a caring community that truly cares about each other. CPC is welcoming, warm, family-friendly, offers a sense of belonging for all, is spiritual, and is open to questions about faith. Middle and High School Youth consider their programs their "other family" which provides a safe space to discuss anything that is going on while they navigate the challenging teen years. High School summer service trips are life-changing. I've been to many churches and CPC size and caring culture are a perfect fit for me and my family.”

“The Lombard Kindercare is a warm, inviting environment that has friendly staff and excellent childcare. The staff has been very accommodating to our child's needs and has worked in her best interest to make her feel comfortable and at home in a new place. This is by far the best childcare center I have ever come across! Excellent quality, communication and I feel that my child gets the best care. I would highly recommend!”

“My family has been connected with Elm Tree for several years, and the program has consistently exceeded expectations. Not only does this program provide children with structure and stability, but it also weaves creativity, community and love into every day the children are in attendance.The daily schedule is well thought out (academics, rigor in the morning) followed by rest and play in the afternoons. The food is well balanced and appetizing for the kiddos. The environment is a parent's dream with cleanliness, organization, but also wonderful artwork and displays of academic progress on the walls. Each season or occasion/holiday are celebrated in an informational, fun manner. My son has brought home so many treasures that I will keep forever (i.e., hand-painted Thanksgiving gratitude napkin, adorable Christmas ornaments, a Valentine's day craft, etc.).And the icing on the cake is the staff. Every single staff member that I interact with in the mornings at drop off and afternoons at pick up is personable, kind, and great at communicating. My son has special needs and the staff have accommodated him, but also challenged him to grow and develop alongside his peers. On his tough days the staff let me know what happened, but always end the conversation with forgiveness and a hope for a better day tomorrow with him. They are such good people. They genuinely care about their students, and as a parent, I absolutely could not ask for more.”

“I have nothing but amazing words for the Willowbrook KinderCare! I have a 1 year old and 2 year old that attend here and I love it. I spoke to Ms. Jen when enrolling my children and she was Wonderful!My son started going here when he turned 1 and a half with Ms. Shawna and Ms. Jessica. They are amazing with the toddlers, I felt so comfortable leaving my son with them. He’s learned so much since starting and I couldn’t be more grateful for them, now being 2 he moved up into the Twos classroom he is now with Ms. Teresa & Ms. Zenaidalee and he's continuing to thrive, thank you so much ladies!! My daughter started in The Infant A classroom with Ms. Rose & Ms. Ericka but shortly went into the infant B class with Ms. Claudia & Ms. Arielle. They are AMAZING with her, and all the other children in the class room. They treat each child like if they are their own. All of these teachers here are wonderful and I couldn’t have been happier with the choice I made when sending my children to this school! Thank you ladies for all the hard work you do day to day with our babies ”
