  • Something is definitely wrong at this location, and I would not recommend it to any parent. There are also some concerning patterns that feel off—for example, a large number of comments and ratings all appearing on the same day (5 days ago), shortly after a parent reported concerns about the staff and environment and left a review. I would strongly encourage others to do their own due diligence before considering this daycare for their children.

  • We couldn't be happier with The Ark! This is actually our third child to attend the center, which really speaks to how much we trust them. The entire staff communicates effectively and keeps us updated throughout the day, which we truly appreciate. Most importantly, I feel completely safe with my child in their care. After years of being part of this community, we highly recommend The Ark to any parent looking for a secure and professional environment.

  • I'm so pleased and beyond happy that my child has attended this school. He has developmental delays and has progressed so much. I am more then satisfied with the teachers and the way my son is excelling in his speech! He has improved immensely and I can't wait for daughter to be old enough to attend!

  • We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Ark Child Development Center! Our 4-year-old daughter has truly blossomed since joining. From day one, the staff made her feel safe, loved, and excited to learn. The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and attentive to each child’s individual needs. We’ve seen such a positive change in her confidence, communication skills, and curiosity. She comes home every day with new stories, songs, and things she’s learned, which speaks volumes about the engaging environment they’ve created. What we appreciate most is the balance between structured learning and fun activities. The center does a wonderful job fostering both academic growth and social development. It’s clear that they genuinely care about the children and treat them like family. As parents, there’s nothing more reassuring than knowing your child is in a safe, nurturing, and stimulating environment. We highly recommend Ark Child Development Center to any parent looking for a place where their child will thrive!
