Great teachers. Very happy to have my kids there.
A. B.Jan 10, 2026The teachers and staff at Papoose are great! They’re respectful when talking to the kids and helped reinforce the manners we were teaching at home. They send home daily reports until around 3, when the kids are talking. They do lots of activities, art projects coming home weekly. We did the 3 day potty training method at home, the teachers and staff helped reinforce potty training too. 10/10 would recommend!
Melissa AutulloSep 2, 2023Great experience. Teachers and staff are great with the kids. They do so many fun art projects and summer activities which include splash days, trips to library, etc. Both of my boys really loved it and learned so much while they were there. Highly recommend and the price is definitely competitive. Great value for such a wonderful experience.
L. GonzalezMay 26, 2023Staff not focused on development skills and rude. Seems they try to always rush kids out of there and under staffed. No cameras which is a big no no. My child got hurt there one day and told me about it before hearing it from the staff. Very unprofessional and unpleasant. This is a last resort place if you ask me
Bb BbJul 3, 2020The teachers here are absolutely amazing, I would recommend anyone I know to bring their children here. They have a great curriculum, fun activities & trips, and a great atmosphere for learning.
Kristiana HartJul 28, 2019Definitely recommend this place! Teachers are the best here. They not only teaching but they are kids best friends. And when you meet them after many years, you can say only best words. Thank you.

What ages does PAPOOSE CHILDREN'S CENTER accept?
- Illinois licenses PAPOOSE CHILDREN'S CENTER for children 15 months to 5 years during the day, with a licensed day capacity of 99. The span is what the licence permits, not a statement of which ages have places free.
