  • Magic Forest has been a delight. Our child has advanced in so many ways here and it is arrived to drop them off to such a caring environment. Highly recommend

    Patrick DriscollApr 16, 2026
  • We were incredibly fortunate to have both of our children attend Magic Forest from 2018-2025. From the very beginning, they welcomed us like family, and that’s truly how it has felt ever since. The love, patience, and genuine care they show the children goes far beyond what we ever expected. Our kids were not only safe and well cared for, but nurtured, encouraged, and celebrated every day. We watched them grow socially, emotionally, and academically in such a positive and supportive environment. It’s rare to find people who treat your children as their own. We will always be grateful for the role they’ve played in our children’s lives and in our family’s journey. We wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a loving, trustworthy, and exceptional place for their children.

  • Our son absolutely loves Magic Forest! We completely trust that he is safe, loved and taken care of everyday when we drop him off. He's also learning and thriving - coming into his own personality. It's so rewarding seeing his daily reports and the pics/videos of their adventures.

  • We love it!! Perfect daycare for our family. As a first time mom, finding a daycare that we trusted was huge! I’m so glad we found Magic Forest, they are highly dependable, trustworthy, communicative and truly care for the kids. We love the engagement and activities they do daily. Our kids are learning while being cared for and having fun! Highly recommend.

  • My son really found himself at Magic Forest! He loves the staff and playing with the other kids. Blanca and Cristian have been very supportive of his developmental needs right from the beginning. We could see how much he’s grown since starting there: vocabulary, behavior, play skills, motor skills. As parents, we are very pleased to have found Magic Forest for our son!

  • Magic Forest is WONDERUL! Sending my daughter there for daycare was the best decision. She was well cared for and loved and we all felt like part of the family. The team is excellent! The kids are treated with respect, they eat well, and they learn and play and have the best time day in and day out!
