  • Best daycare!! I switched my son here from another daycare and he loved it on his first day! They are very attentive and caring to all of the kids. The owner is very involved and incredibly nice, you will always see him on property with a smile on his face. Kellie the director is fantastic. She goes above and beyond to make sure you and your little one are being taken care of. So glad I found this daycare! (:

  • My kids have been going to Mindhaven since they first opened. I can honestly say that compared to other facilities it is night and day in the best way. The owner and staff genuinely care about the families and children that are there. Unlike a few other past experiences, Mindhaven also has excellent communication, something which is a must for me. The facility is clean and the health and saftey of the children always presents itself as a top priority. Couldn't be happier with my children attending here.

  • We couldn't be happier with our experience at Mindhaven Academy! The environment is very bright, clean, and welcoming, and the staff is incredibly friendly and caring. We love that we receive several updates about our son throughout the day. I can tell from the pictures I receive that my son is enjoying his time with the teachers and other children as he engages in all of the fun hands-on activities. We also love that they always spend time outside when the weather allows! The owner and director are great about communicating any updates, changes, or events at the daycare. It really gives us peace of mind being kept in the loop and having that engagement not only from the teachers, but the owner and director as well. It's clear that Mindhaven Academy always prioritizes what is best for the children. I highly recommend!

  • We recently moved to the area and enrolled our daughter at MindHaven Academy a few months ago — and we couldn’t be happier. The teachers are caring, attentive, and clearly experienced. It’s such a relief to know she’s in a place where she’s genuinely supported and thriving every day. We actually prefer MindHaven to our previous daycare — the environment feels more nurturing and intentional, and the communication with parents is excellent. On top of that, it’s a great value for the quality of care and education our daughter is receiving. We’re so glad we found this place!

  • Sending our son to Mindhaven Academy has been the best decision we've made! The entire staff is very friendly, caring, and responsive. Kellie has been so helpful with answering all of questions and giving us peace of mind with trusting them with our son. Everyone at Mindhaven Academy truly cares about our son's wellbeing and development. I highly recommend this facility to anybody looking for childcare options!

Is MINDHAVEN ACADEMY a licensed child care provider in Illinois?

Yes. MINDHAVEN ACADEMY holds Illinois licence 630322, listed as "License issued (IL)" by the Department of Children and Family Services, licensed as a day care center in Mchenry County. Confirm current standing at sunshine.dcfs.illinois.gov before enrolling.

What ages does MINDHAVEN ACADEMY accept?

Illinois licenses MINDHAVEN ACADEMY for children 6 weeks to 6 years during the day, with a licensed day capacity of 67. The span is what the licence permits, not a statement of which ages have places free.

What languages are spoken at MINDHAVEN ACADEMY?

The licence record lists English. That is what the provider reported to the state, not a guarantee that a speaker is on site at every hour.

Does this page show inspection results for MINDHAVEN ACADEMY?

No. Illinois publishes monitoring and licensing reports going back to 2010 through Sunshine at sunshine.dcfs.illinois.gov.
