  5 stars for the teachers and attendants, who are all pretty amazing and truly care for the children there. 0 stars for the owner Lori Oldham, who only meets bare minimum DCFS ratios. I get they only have to meet a certain student/teacher ratio legally, but ethically they should increase it when there are multiple children with serious behavioral issues/autism. There was about a 2-3 month stretch where my son was bitten, pushed, or had a toy thrown at him every week when they were training new people. If Lori hired some additional staff as a buffer to account for these periods, where she's still receiving my $300/wk, perhaps my son wouldn't have been hurt so frequently. It's great up until about 2-3 yrs old. They do a great job with infant and early toddler care. Find some other place with more structure after that. Our son is at Goddard now. Very pricey, but very worth it.

  I’ve sent my son here for past three years and they have been such a blessing. From potty training to preschool graduation this facility has been nothing but phenomenal. Always on top of any concerns and always giving praise to the children when needed. The directors are so kind, I cannot express it enough. When our house burnt down they filled our vehicles with supplies, multiple times every day for weeks. The employees who weren’t even my sons teachers were constantly checking on us and encouraging our future. Five Star Learning Center deserves ten stars. They’re constantly engaging in fun activities such as ice cream truck, foam parties, petting zoos, tie dye day. Half the time I wish I could take off work and stay and play. Coming from a paranoid mama, the schools security is amazing, I’m constantly getting updates and photos throughout the days. My son has flourished at this daycare/preschool and he is 150% prepared for kindergarten with their help. We were honored to be apart of the Five Star family for so long and hope you enjoy it as much as we have!

  We have had three kiddos go through five star and we absolutely love the staff! We have had such a great experience. They are always staying busy with the kiddos and doing so many fun activities and learning opportunities. The staff always keeps you informed and the app is extremely helpful to always keep tabs on what is going on while you’re at work. The admin staff is truly amazing and very helpful.

  Five Star Learning Centers is a top notch childcare facility. All of my interactions with the staff have been pleasant and welcoming. I love that they always have something fun planned. My daughter is excited to go to "school", learning through play really is great for the children!

  We have had a fantastic experience with five star. Our daughter enjoyed her time there. Every week they were doing new and stimulating activities. Each time we dropped her off, every teacher greeted her and was excited to see her, knowing her by name from the very first day even those not teaching in her classroom. The management was always quick to respond and address any concerns/questions we had. We truly have no complaints and will recommend to others
