My husband and I absolutely love Cadence Academy on Grand! We have had nothing but great experiences. Erica and Madison are amazing! We have known Erica for almost 3 years, since our daughter started going there. She is honest, trustworthy and kind hearted. The teachers have taught our child so much, it’s incredible. Choosing childcare is the most important thing you can do for your kids, we did not go wrong in this decision!

We love Cadence!! We’ve had kids in the infant, transition, and 3 year old rooms and we absolutely adore all the staff our kids have been with. Our kids adore the teachers there and we are very happy with curriculum and activities. The director and assistant director are so wonderful… We feel so lucky to have found Cadence!

I love Cadence Academy! My niece goes here and I often pick her up. The staff are always so nice and helpful. My niece loves all the activities they do. It is nice to have such a good daycare facility here in Des Moines where I know my niece is safe.

We have only been part of the Cadence Academy since October 2020, but they've been amazing in every aspect. Although we were in the middle of a pandemic when we started, the communication from the Director and Assistant Director, every day screening procedures, cleaning processes and policies made us feel extremely comfortable sending the kiddos to Cadence.What has been most impressive is the development of the kids since being at Cadence. The Ascend Curriculum has been great and we have greatly enjoyed seeing how much the kids have learned. The teachers go above and beyond to provide a nurturing environment and truly care about your child. The school is also a level 5 NAEYC AND Iowa QRS level 5. I cannot say enough amazing things about Cadence-Grand, the leadership there and the entire team. We are proud to be part of the Cadence family!

We have two children attending this school, and could not be happier!! Our preschooler is consistently learning and developing at a rate that always amazes me. I'm blown away by milestones that our infant continually surpasses, many of which I attribute to this school. The school does an excellent job teaching and growing with our children, along side of us, as a family. The staff and teachers at this location are so supportive, detail-oriented, loving, and care for our children as if they were their own. We toured several facilities, prior to choosing this school, and there was no question as to whether or not we would land here. Cadence Academy on Grand takes any worry and concern off my shoulders of leaving my children with others' care during the day, because I know my children are learning the same values and receiving the same support they would otherwise, at home.

Cadence provides quality care for your child. They are welcoming and professional when you walk through the door. They have a low turn-over rate and a positive culture. Teachers receive up-to-date training and resources in order to provide a structured, engaging, inclusive, and fun learning environment for children to grow and develop. Highly recommend!

Both of my daughters are students at Cadence (one is nearly 3, the other is 3 months), and I could not be more pleased. The teachers and staff are not only caring and compassionate, but do what they can to help the girls grow and develop. They also support parents as we navigate the ups and downs of caring for littles. My daughters are making lifelong friends and meaningful relationships. Thank you!

My daughter started at Cadence in July 2019 in the 2 year old classroom! She loves going to school everyday. She comes home counting and identify colors and letters. My wife and I also enjoy getting daily reports for her through the Kids Report! We are lucky to have our daughter go to such a wonderful place everyday and excited for our newborn to attend in May.

My daughter started this past Monday and loves it! I was very worried with switching schools, that my daughter would have a really hard transition, however, everyone is so nice. All the teachers greet my daughter by her name. If she is having a rough morning, they walk over to us and take Taylor and give her hugs. She then waves with a smile on her face. I am very thankful for the teachers and all the love and care they give to my child and all the other children in the building.

My kid started at Apple tree 6 months back when she turned 2. We had to take a break as we went out of country and when we got back it was Cadence. We had a wonderful experience at Cadence. Our journey with Cadence was very short but a memorable one. We had to move from West Des Moines to St. Louis so had to leave Cadence. Cadence provides a loving, homely and safe environment for kids. Our kid was not self feeding and wanted someone to rock her during nap time.Everyone at Cadence took good care of my kid just like my family would do. I would like to thank everyone. Special thanks to the director Anya, Chelsey , Megan, Judy (Sorry if I have missed anyone).You guys will always be in our heart.

We have been at the Grand location for Cadence Academy for a little over a month. We switched from the Ashworth location for a variety of reasons, and we are so glad we did! The teachers, director, and assistant director have been great! They made the transition as easy as possible for our little one and for us. At one point, I commented to the director that I was not used to the customer service we were getting, and she responded "Well, get used to it!" We know that our little one is getting a great education and excellent care and love.

My child has been at Cadence Academy for 9 months and has loved every minute of it. He is always excited when we walk through the door and waves to all of the teachers (even those who aren't in his classroom). He enjoys all of the activities they offer like painting, coloring, sticker art, dancing, imaginative play and outdoor play. I know that my child is getting love and attention every moment he spends at Cadence Academy.
