Method Child Development Center is awesome. The directors, Ms. Mac and Ms. T are thoughtful and caring and always trying to make the center better. We’ve been at Method since January 2023 and they have taken incredible care of our almost 2 year old. Our 7 month old also attends and is eating like a champ thanks to the caregivers. There are so many good things to say but communication is top notch, the care for our kids is evident, the food is quality and wholesome. We drive to the opposite side of Raleigh from our house to take our kids to Method at the recommendation of some friends who were already attending. They have been thoughtful in helping transition our older child to the 2 year old classroom and we can’t wait to see how our kids continue to thrive under their care.

We have had a great experience at Method! We were super nervous with our son starting daycare at 11 months old (and it was a rough transition for him), but they were super supportive and worked with us. After less than a month, he loved it. He now loves the teachers and has learned so much. I love the staff and the director, as well as all the outside playtime the kids get. Plus they eat REAL food!

My child has been in daycare at Method from infancy to now just about to start Kindergarten, and this center has grown and improved the entire time we've been here. Ms. Mac is a passionate director who leads her staff to educate, enrich, and nourish our kids above and beyond our expectations. They truly put the extra effort into making this a great center. Our son has loved all the teachers there as well!

Our son has been going to Method since he was five months old. He loves going to school in the morning and we know he will be well-loved while he is there. The outdoor play space is great, the kids have a little garden growing as well. There is a great community atmosphere, and wonderful director and staff.

My child was here for about a year the first 6 months were ok, after she would come home in different clothes with scratches and upset she did not like to go at all it got to s point I found out her her cot was put behind the classroom door because "she misbehaves" during nap time after they would call me once a week saying she was doing something and my baby isn't like that she talks very well and always explained to me how people hit her or put her in the corner they tried to say she may have adhd which isn't true per a specialist. She is now in a new school thriving , no phones calls or bad reviews about my daughter don't take your child here

This is a great center with caring and professional staff. The teachers and management clearly love their work and bring great energy to the center. They are consistently going the extra mile for the kids. Our toddler loves going here which, in my opinion, is the best endorsement. Thank you Method team!

I was very nervous about my baby boy starting daycare. He was only 16 months old when he started at MCDC and I was a slight wreck! However, the moment I walked in and felt the positive vibes and family energy that swept through the halls and classrooms, my husband and I knew we had found a safe place for our son. Ms. Mac and Ms. Taniesha have been on it since day one! They respond to messages in a very timely manner, they respond to questions, comments and concerns with professionalism and empathy, and they make sure things are running as smoothly as possible so parents can feel at ease! My son has grown and developed so much in the 5 months he has been at MCDC. He hasn’t brought home any bad habits, his teachers worked together with us to swiftly wean him off of his pacifier, and the structure and lessons they provide the kiddos is amazing! I also have a 5 year old bonus son who attended the summer camp and he LOVED it!! He made so many friends, enjoyed the lessons, and was prepared for the structure of kindergarten as a result! Ms. Mac integrates various cultures, holiday celebrations, and family in and out of center practices and my husband and I have enjoyed the impact it has had on our sons. We are so thankful for MCDC and the amazing staff! Oh, and as a bonus, these ladies can COOK!!! ?? Don’t miss a meal if they offer you one! Haha!

Highly recommend MCDC to any parent looking for quality full-time care for their child. We really appreciate the staff here who treat your children with love and respect while also providing parents with quick responses to any questions and very good hours. Love especially the wonderful playground and emphasis on outdoor play!

My son started here at age two was there until age four he cried every day and hated it. The teachers are dry and do not speak in the mornings they do not seem very involved or seem to love children. Horrible experience.

My children have attended Method for 4.5 years and we have been pleased with the center. The staff are kind, responsible, and always seeking to grow professionally through training. The community support is amazing - from a strong board to volunteer groups to the parent committee. My kids have learned so many skills. Examples include learning letters and colors, how to use silverware and clean up after themselves at table, potty training, gardening, and public speaking through show and tell. My son says every night at the dinner table that playing with his friends on the playground at Method was the highlight of his day. Great diversity and so much love at this center! A true gem in the rough.

This childcare center is OK, but maybe not the best for infants. There are a few things I was not thrilled about. 1. all the infants are in the same classroom. What this means is the younger babies get stuck sitting in swings or bouncy seats all day because there are older babies crawling and cruising around the room and it wouldn't be safe for them to be on the floor. So the younger babies don't get the tummy time and floor play they need for their development. 2. The infant classroom is connected to the 1 year old classroom. This makes it VERY loud in the room which makes it difficult for babies to take naps. Our son had a very hard time napping here and would be a miserable wreck by the time he got home. 3. They claim they are breastfeeding friendly, however, I constantly had problems with the staff not understanding how to properly feed a breastfed baby. I asked them to pace bottle feed, which I do think they tried to, however didn't seem to have the time to try and do it properly. They also thought every time my baby cried he was hungry, when really what he needed was more sleep, more stimulation, and more attention. When he was home with my husband, he would take less milk throughout the day than what I was sending to the daycare, however they kept telling me he was hungry and to send more milk. I didn't have any more milk to send, so it would have meant giving him formula for no good reason. I am completely fine with supplementing with formula if it's needed and have done it on multiple occasions, but not just to make staff's job easier. Lastly, I did not feel my concerns about my baby were really heard in regards to his sleep difficulties. Times when I would go nurse him or try to help him get to sleep, I would put him in a swing almost asleep, and a staff person would go over and start interacting and smiling and playing with him when he fussed a little bit. When I mentioned not to stimulate him when he needs to fall asleep, I was completely ignored and the staff person kept doing it. My husband or myself were there everyday basically helping with his care, so why were we paying them? Perhaps this daycare would work fine for a very easy baby without a lot of attention needs and that falls asleep anywhere without problems, but it did not work for our baby. Some positives, they were very flexible with the schedule and I did feel that the staff really cared about the babies/children.

They don’t have your child best interest at hand. When incidents happen they just work together to cover things up. They don’t communicate well with parents and I didn’t feel it was a safe environment for my child.
