  • We love this daycare! The teachers are amazing and truly care about the kids. The place is always clean, beautiful, and welcoming. They serve freshly cooked, healthy meals — no fast food! My kids enjoy so many fun activities, field trips, and celebrations. It’s a wonderful, safe place where children grow and thrive! Highly recommended!!

  • I want to say a big thank you to all the staff at Happy Kids Preschool & Daycare for your amazing care, help, and kindness during a hard time for our child. After she had a fracture in her leg, it was not easy for her or for us as parents. But thanks to your support, love, and attention, she was able to keep coming to daycare, feel safe, happy, and included every day. We are so grateful for everything you did — your patience, your understanding, and your big hearts.

  • We have sent all three of our sons to Happy Kids and cannot recommend the school highly enough. The teachers, especially Marta, Krysia, and Svitlana have treated all of our boys as unique individuals, accommodating their needs without being asked. One of our sons had an accidental allergen exposure and the school handled it safely and professionally. Recently, the director has added a whole scope of "extras" including music and Soccer Shots -- my two boys currently enrolled are really benefitting.

  • Very creative, competent and smart working teachers. Feel confident leaving my daughter there. I recommend very much this place, especially for kids age 15-24 months where there was maximum of 5 children in class.

    Aga NiemJun 16, 2025
  • When I drop off my son at Happy Kids, I know he is loved and cared for each day. My son is bilingual in Spanish and English and is now learning Polish as well. Beyond the well planned lessons he receives, Happy Kids provides culturally rich programing, activities, field trips, and performances throughout the year. Happy kids staff and other students greet each other by name everyday and there is an atmosphere of inclusion and belonging. My son enjoys going to Happy Kids every day and we as parents couldn't be happier with his care!

What ages does HAPPY KIDS PRESCHOOL & DAYCARE CENTER accept?
