When our first daughter was born 4 years ago, my wife and I really wanted to find someone that cared for three or four children in their home. We weren't very interested in a "childcare center" by the traditional definition. We weren't able to find anyone close with any openings. After receiving a few word-of-mouth recommendations, we toured Little Inspiration and our daughter started attending.My entire viewpoint of "childcare centers" has been corrected since then. Our 2 daughters have been attending Little Inspirations since they were 12 weeks old. Looking back, if I were to do it again, I would not change a thing. Our daughters' manners, speech, imaginations, and personalities are beyond my original expectations. This really clicked almost two years ago when we were eating supper at home. Our older daughter, out of the blue, said "May I be excused please?". Our families are pretty laid back, so this took us by surprise. It was right then that I knew they are having a great childhood.Here are some key points on Little Inspirations:1. Communication is great. They inform us well in advance of various items: upcoming events, additional clothes needed (warm items for outside, etc), when starting to run low on diapers/wipes, school news2. Accommodating. Our younger daughter was on a non-dairy diet for nearly two years. They accommodated this request as if she was their own daughter. We could even see the special instructions/notes in certain areas to remind the teachers about this. As we were transitioning her into dairy, they even allowed us to include cheese on certain menu items, and not others.3. Candor. Yes, candor. If you aren't familiar with this word, don't be afraid to read about it. The entire team at Little Inspirations talks to us AND the kids with candor. Because.... they aren't just kids... they're little humans.4. Personable. All of the team at Little Inspirations is just remarkable at remembering personable items. Example: On a Monday morning, 7am, our daughter walks into Little Inspirations after a weekend at Wis Dells. Two teachers at different times say to our daughter "Hey you, how was your weekend at the water park?".In summary, I've told many people that I know that I GENUINELY recommend Little Inspirations. We've gotten to know much of their team very well. We trust them and we feel beyond comfortable with them. I hope this message will reach more people than I am able to do so by word-of-mouth.

It has been a very refreshing change being at this childcare. When I think about my now 5 year old attending 4K and daycare here, the words educational, professional staff and educators in each room, friendly and family oriented ethics and morals instilled into each experience here is what comes to my mind. I am so excited and impressed with how happy and eager my son is to go to school everyday. He has made some wonderful friends with the other children and his teachers.Organization: This school has it down pat. Everything is so organized and clean which is very wonderful.I cannot say enough good things about this school. Best part is, it is 3 minutes from my home. Added bonus for us. Thank you to the owners and staff and the entire Little Inspirations family. We love it here.

As a first time mother, I was generally overwhelmed with the idea of leaving my child with anyone - but spending time with the owners and experienced staff at Little Inspirations put my mind at ease! I appreciate the high expectations they have, not only for their staff, but for the children as well. It's been a blessing and I consider my family lucky to attend such a amazing facility. Kudos to the owners and the teachers at Little Inspirations to a job well done. I recommend this facility to anyone I can...go in and see for yourself!

My children (4 & 1) have been at this daycare for a little over six months now. The staff and owners care deeply for your children and their development. Reading a past review - I can't help but laugh as I get a report ever day that my 22 mo old daughter has 2 servings of breakfast and two of lunch. They keep the infants separate from the older kids all day and have curriculums for all the kids.

My son and daughter loved it here! My 18 month old had a hard time adjusting without me being there at first, but she grew to love it and the teachers. I had an issue with my job schedule and the directors were very friendly and understanding. I will definately be bringing both my children here for care again.

I was recently told by my friend about this child care center. She explained to me that the owners there are not allowing the children to have seconds on main course. They can have seconds on fruits and veggies but not any casseroles or nuggets or so on. She said that her daughter comes home so hungry she eats so much now at home that she is worried that she is being starved at daycare. She talked to a teacher there and they told her that the owners there stick so tight on budget that they want to eliminate costs as much as they can. I understand wanting to keep your business alive but seriously!!!! Under feeding kids isn't the answer! I now know that i would NEVER take my child there.
