“I cannot praise this daycare enough for their unwavering commitment to safety, cleanliness, and child development! From the moment I stepped in, I was impressed by the immaculate environment and the nurturing atmosphere they've created. The staff is attentive and well-trained, ensuring the well-being of every child in their care.The facility itself is designed with the highest safety standards in mind, and the staff's dedication to cleanliness is evident. It gives me peace of mind knowing that my child is in a healthy and secure environment.But what truly sets this daycare apart is their focus on child development. Their age-appropriate activities and curriculum are thoughtfully designed to foster creativity, social skills, and cognitive growth. My child is always excited to attend and has shown remarkable progress since joining.I wholeheartedly give this daycare 5 stars and recommend it to any parent seeking a safe, clean, and nurturing environment for their child's development. This is truly the gold standard for childcare!”

“My 8-year-old has done summer and after school care here. We/he loves it! Before finding our home at Cadence we had checked-out a few other places in town and this is by far his favorite. The director and staff are amazing.”

“My child attended MCC from age 2-5 and often asked me why she couldn’t stay overnight when I picked her up each day. She made so many friends, none of whom go to her elementary school, but with whom she still keeps in contact for playdates and birthday parties. On her last day, she clung to one of the teachers while we all cried. She has since been back to visit twice, both time bringing her teachers cards or gifts. My experience of MCC was that the people there were truly invested in each child’s care and I saw the social-emotional growth in my child as a result. I highly recommend MCC to anyone looking for the best experience for their child during their most critical early childhood development years.”

“Our child attends here and we love this daycare. The leadership and staff are caring, attentive, and professional. We were hesitant about sending our child to a daycare center but this place has put our minds at ease. We have toured several daycare centers in the area and nothing compares to the Johnston New Horizon Academy. They do projects, learn songs, and have a curriculum full of fun. Any concerns we have/had have always been quickly addressed. It is a little pricier than other daycares in the area, but it is well worth it.”

“Couldn’t be more happier with KinderCare!Me and my wife were not ready to let go of our little boy.. he was only 3 months when we both decided to start looking for a daycare. As soon as we met the center director and got to tour the building/rooms around we knew that was the right place for our boy! He is almost one and words can’t explain how much we love it there! The teachers are just wonderful, they are so on top of every little detail, I love how they always communicate with us about everything our little boy is up to, we love how they are always keeping the app updated, sending pictures/notes, our boy has grown so much with them, he is such a smart, spunky and happy little boy all thanks to them! If you are looking for a place like home Kindercare is your place!”

“We have the highest level of confidence in the care and education our children are receiving at Loving Arms. Our kids are excited to go each day, and the teachers are incredibly kind and welcoming. I’m constantly impressed with the different open-ended learning activities I see set up in the classrooms, and communication with staff and leadership is great. We’ve been trusting Loving Arms to care for our kids for 8 years now, and they just keep getting better and better!”

“We love Cadence! Since the beginning of our process of looking for care for our baby, Cadence's communication was clearly better than the other centers we reached out to. Our little one is so happy when we drop him off and pick him up - it's clear that he's well cared for and having fun with all of the teachers. Tonya is especially amazing and you can tell her positive attitude and sweet energy makes the kiddos feel comfortable each and every day!”

“St.Paul preschool instantly felt like family. We were truly amazed at how much actual learning goes on. The teachers love what they do. We have made numerous friendships with other parents even years later we are still in touch. I have visited the classroom numerous times and it was well organized and smoothly run. The kids listened so well and my daughter loved coming back year after year. I highly recommend this preschool program. It was the best decision we have made for our little one and laid a great foundation for future learning and getting ahead start with school.”

“I cannot express enough how much I love my son’s childcare center. From the moment we enrolled, it has felt like our second home. The growth and development I’ve seen in my son since he started here is remarkable. Every day, he is surrounded by absolute love and care from all the teachers, staff, and management.The dedication and genuine concern they show for each child’s well-being is truly heartwarming. The communication is consistently excellent, keeping us informed and involved in every aspect of our son’s daily experiences. Knowing that he is in such a nurturing and safe environment gives me immense peace of mind.Thank you to the entire team for creating such a fantastic, loving, and supportive environment for our children. We are truly grateful for everything you do!”

“Absolutely amazing work they are doing. My 1 year old adjusted very well with them and has been having fun and has been doing great learning to play with other kids. I definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a wonderful place to send your kids. They are definitely worth it.”

“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!”

“Very nice community church. They are very supportive of the community and the schools. The church hosts several holiday events and is very active with supporting the school athletic activities. I it great to have a church really give back to the community they are in.”

“Great option for early childcare. The teachers and staff provide an enriching program for my child and they enjoy going to school everyday. Communication is great with a daily summary provided along with an overview of the educational unit covered each day.”

“My son went here for over two years before he transitioned to public school. He is on the high functioning spectrum, and they made every possible loving accommodation for him. I still stay in contact with some of the classroom teachers to this day. I can’t say enough good things about this daycare! 100% top notch. Nothing in the world is perfect, but these teachers are top of the line near perfection!!”

“We love Cadence Academy, Clive. The small environment provides a family like feel. The education is top notch & the teachers are excellent especially with potty training. Our 2 & 1 year year old attend there (since they were 6 months) and we cannot wait to how they continue grow over the years there!”

“We could not have asked for a more rewarding experience during our time at KinderCare. From infant to toddler stage, our daughter gained invaluable skills through thoughtfully designed curriculum and benefited from daily activities and social settings spanning all aspects of childhood development. Most importantly, her teachers provided a personal touch that was unparalleled. The teachers and directors at this center truly care about each one of their kiddos and go out of their way to make a personal impact. The teachers are knowledgeable, insightful, and have the biggest hearts. Even a month after leaving (due to a house move), our daughter still asks for her toddler room teachers and lights up talking about them. Thank you, KinderCare for everything!”

“I love my child’s teacher! I like walking into my child’s class and seeing her art work along with photos of what she’s been doing throughout the month. The teacher has wonderful communication from telling me my daughters almost out of formula or addressing something she may have a concern about or letting me know she’s hitting milestones at daycare. I know that my child is well taken care of at this daycare. The management there is also very friendly, when I had questions about the bill they sat me down and kindly walked me through payment options. I would recommend this place to everyone.”

“We have been with ACC for 2.5 years and it remains an incredible experience. They love our children and we feel part of a family. We are grateful for their care, safety and development. Watching our children grow there is a blessing.”

“When I originally enrolled my daughters to LE my then 2.5 year old had been diagnosed with global delays. We were doing 30+ therapy appointments every month for the past year and was seeing very slow progress. Since she has been enrolled we have seen leaps and bounds in her development. From only speaking words without much correlation to now having conversations with us in just a short 5 months. From not being able to sit for any period of time to now being able to sit and enjoy story time and crafts. Ms. Journey, Ms. Katie, Madi, Randi, and Dezah have shown my girls so much kindness, immense patience, and a love of learning. I truly appreciate Little Endeavors and so glad I got my girls enrolled here.”

“Our son has some disabilities and was turned away from other centers. But he loved this center so much that even though I am a stay at home parent now he is still asking to go back for the summer! The staff are great and he really bonded with Faith and Ms. Piper. DEFINATELY check this center out. Its a really nice program. ?”

“We have loved our experience with Waukee KinderCare. The staff are dedicated to our daughter’s care and learning each and every day. They are always sending photos of the kids doing fun activities - it’s so nice to see the variety of ways they teach and help all the kids grow individually. The director, Martha, has been amazing to work with and very receptive to any and all feedback. Thanks for taking such great care of our girl!”

“Clean, quiet, student free today (lol), and it is in a great location. They are the best clinic around. I have dealt with the Big Boy company and a Ma & Pop shop in the Metropolitan area. Very professional setting with great abilities. Thanks!”

“I switched from an in home daycare to a center a few years ago. Since then I have noticed a huge growth in my son. Karen has helped me so much with his learning and getting us the help he needs. She brought in a therapist to work with him for PT, OT, and speech. She also brought up some behavioral issues he was having and since then we have been able to get his diagnosis and a start of an IEP for school. Karen and all the teachers are wonderful and truly caring!”
