Such a awesome place and teachers but the INS is my favorite
Dylan Palm-TrujilloJul 31, 2026I pulled my children out of another care and searched for a new one i went on the tour with the director Jessica and she was so genuine and sweet ! My 2 almost 3 year old and 7 year old love it here ! My 2 year old is attached to my hip and this is the one place he has such a good time and he has learned so much with having Ms pricilla as his teacher i couldn't recommend this place more !
Mati MedinaJul 25, 2026We absolutely love our daughter's school! The teachers and staff are so caring, welcoming, and wonderful with the kids. We feel so lucky to have found such a safe, nurturing, and positive environment for her to learn and grow. Highly recommend! 💕
Chloe DemlerJul 22, 2026We absolutely love Willowbrae! ❤️ From the very beginning, the staff has been warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. As a parent, it's never easy leaving your child in someone else's care, but they have made the transition so much easier for our family. The teachers are attentive, patient, and truly invested in each child's growth and development. I love receiving updates and seeing how much my son is learning, exploring, and having fun every day. It's clear that the staff creates a safe, nurturing, and engaging environment where children can thrive. The facility is clean, organized, and well-maintained, and everyone is always friendly and professional. The communication with parents is excellent, which gives us so much peace of mind. We are incredibly grateful to have found Willowbrae and highly recommend them to any family looking for a daycare that genuinely cares about children and treats them like family.
Janelle MedinaJul 15, 2026We couldn't be happier with our experience at this school. From day one, the staff has been incredibly responsive, whether it's through email, text messages, or the app's chat feature. As a parent, knowing I can easily reach someone and receive a prompt response gives me so much peace of mind. My son attends here, and it has been amazing to watch him grow. The teachers have taken the time to adjust his schedule to fit his needs, whether it's meals, naps, or daily activities, making his transition seamless. They encourage every child to participate but never force them, which I truly appreciate. It's always exciting to receive updates and see that my son decided to join an activity or try something new on his own. They also plan engaging daily activities that support children's development both indoors and outdoors. One of my favorite memories was seeing my son bring his bike to school for "Bike Day" and watching him have so much fun riding with his classmates. It's wonderful to see the variety of experiences they provide, and I look forward to all of the future events they have planned. The school itself is always clean, bright, and welcoming. I also love that they provide healthy, balanced meals each day—it takes one more thing off my mental checklist as a busy parent. Every teacher we've met has been kind, caring, and attentive. It's clear they communicate well with one another, so I never worry that anything about my son's care or routine will be overlooked. They genuinely work as a team, and it shows. Safety is another area where this school truly stands out. The facility is extremely secure, which is especially important with curious toddlers who are always looking for their next adventure. Knowing my son is in a safe, nurturing environment every day is priceless. I highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a caring, organized, and secure place where their child can learn, grow, and thrive.
TriniJul 1, 2026We did a lot of research before choosing a childcare center, and this has truly been the best fit for our family. Not only is it the most affordable center we found, but it is also clean, welcoming, and filled with amazing teachers who genuinely care about the children. From the very beginning, the staff has been incredibly loving, patient, and attentive with my daughter, especially when it comes to her dairy intolerance. They have always been so cautious and careful to make sure she is safe, which means the world to us as parents. Since starting here, she has grown so much and continues to surprise us with everything she is learning. One of my favorite milestones was seeing her learn how to drink milk from a big girl cup with the help and encouragement of her teachers. Those little moments are so special, and it’s comforting knowing she is surrounded by people who truly support her growth and development every day. This center has such a warm and inviting environment, and you can feel how much love and care goes into everything they do. We are so grateful we found this place and would absolutely recommend it to other families looking for a safe, nurturing, and wonderful childcare center.

Questions parents ask about Willowbrae Academy - Thornton
How many infants and toddlers can Willowbrae Academy - Thornton take?
- Colorado licenses Willowbrae Academy - Thornton for 28 infants and 72 toddlers. These are the bands the state publishes separately and they do not add up to the licence total, so treat each as its own ceiling. A licensed place is not the same as an open place, so ask about current availability.
Who can help me find child care near Willowbrae Academy - Thornton?
- Willowbrae Academy - Thornton sits in the area covered by the Early Childhood Partnership of Adams County and the referral agency Child Care Innovations. Colorado funds these bodies to help families find and pay for care locally, and they can answer questions about openings and cost that a licence record cannot.
Does Willowbrae Academy - Thornton accept CCCAP child care assistance?
- Yes. The state record shows Willowbrae Academy - Thornton authorised for the Colorado Child Care Assistance Program. Authorisation means the provider can accept CCCAP families, not that it has a funded place open now, so ask before you apply.
