Alvarium Learning Center

Alvarium Learning Center is the best daycare we have ever had our children at. We have been a part of 3 different daycares (one Montessori), and Alvarium blows the other 2 out of the water. The staff and management are top notch. Our children wake up everyday excited to go to school to see their teachers and friends. Highly recommend ALC if you are seeking professional care and exceptional academics for your child!

We have been very happy with Alvarium and the care they provide to our son! Ms. Riley in the Busy Bees class is phenomenal. She creates such a fun yet structured environment for the kids. We receive frequent photos and updates throughout the day, which I always look forward to. You can tell that they genuinely care. Our son loves his time here and we couldn't ask for better!

Our 3 1/2 year old has been at Alvarium since they opened! She loves going to “school”! We also just enrolled our baby into their new infant care “Baby Bees” program. We are very happy that Alvarium opened their doors to the Wellington community and would highly recommend this early childhood education center to others.

Alvarium was a wonderful place to send our son in helping prepare him for Kindergarten! The structured play and educational component of the program helped our son learn classroom expectations and it was tremendous for his social confidence. It was also very flexible as we sometimes needed additional care days outside of our regular schedule and they were usually able to accommodate.

They are disrespectful of parents job schedule and kids special needs. They make you miss work. There are so many inconsistencies. This daycare out of the blue might decide to close because they want to adopt Poudre School District days off when clearly this is not a public school. One day the decided to have off as "teacher" day. Unfortunately I've seen a lot of good caretakers dissappear, no one last there too long. It's bad for the kids especially after they form an attachment with the caretakers. If you have a room of 10 toddlers that's about $16,000 a month. Not sure why they can't pay the caretakers right. They charge more than a lot of places for the hours 7:30 am to 5:30 pm (I asked what happens if I'm a few minutes late during the tour and she said she wold have to call social services). Again not ok. Kids are always hungry and my kids actually unlearned things. They throw away the food you provide if they don't agree with it. Let the kids stay wet on "wet days", under the rain or snow and not change them. They say a lot of things but don't actually do them. Our kids have been bruised, scratch and they don't inform you. My husband and I are here because the other places are full. To be honest we have missed several days from our jobs. If you're looking for a job, do your research. If you're looking for a daycare, I'd suggest you try another place if you can. If you're the daycare, be better. Update: Gladly we are finally got out of this mess of a place. Found a cheaper daycare that provides healthy meals 4x a day, a better schedule they close at 6, the youngest staff has worked 4 years there, our kid is really happy not starving when we pick her up and they are caring. Also, they listen.
