My son has been at this daycare for almost a year and they have always been very supportive and understanding with my schedule, the school bus brings him to daycare and I never have had any issues whatsoever, they had a great summer with all the field trips
Susy PradoAug 14, 2025We have been sending our children there since 2023. We’ve been happy with the teachers in both the infant rooms and the toddler rooms. The teachers and director are receptive to feedback and communicate promptly with us regarding our children’s needs. You can tell everyone cares deeply about the kids there. The rooms and toys are clean. My son is always excited to go.
Anna ValetaAug 12, 2025This daycare is amazing! The teachers are kind, patient, and really care about the kids. My child is always happy and excited to go. The place is clean, safe, and fun. I feel good knowing my child is in great hands. Highly recommend!
Ibrahim HarrisJul 19, 2025My 5 and 2 year old absolutely loved their time at AOS. The teachers are all so kind, and communication was great!! My 5 year old was in the pre school room and is ready to start Kindergarten! Our only reason for leaving is because we are moving away from the area. Extremely sad to be leaving and would recommend to all parents looking for a daycare.
Lauren RomoJun 28, 2025We’ve been sending our daughter here since she was 6 months old. We were really anxious about starting daycare but after 3 months she LOVES it. We are so happy with our choice to go with Academy of Stars. All of her teachers are so caring and capable (especially Miss Kate!!!), communication with the director Lateef is always very clear and responsive, and the facilities are great. We love it here and would recommend it without hesitation.
Jack StarkeyOct 25, 2024Lateef and her staff are so sweet and professional. I had read one or two negative reviews online that did not reflect my personal experience with The academy of stars. Sandy, one of the teachers, puts in so much effort for the children and even writes daily reviews to help gauge how our children was throughout the day. The children go on weekly fields trips and a fresh lunch is provided daily. Lateef was also flexible with payment, like it wasn't even a problem if i pay a few weeks after i usually pay. I can read people well, and i know they care for the children and if your thinking about taking them to the academy of stars, you won't be disappointed. The building is always clean and i don't worry that my boys are with them all day. Great job The academy of stars staff!
