  • My daughter has been at Wise owl for a couple of months and I couldn’t be happier with our pick! We love how attentive, informative and caring the teachers are with us and my baby. The updates on the app give us an ease of mind keeping us updated throughout our day. We love that they provide fresh made meals everyday, focus age appropriate sensory play, and outside walks for fresh air. The director and the teachers communicate throughly reassuring me when I had doubts . I couldn’t be happier with our positive experience so far and would highly recommend.

  • We’ve had our son at Wise Owl for about a year now, starting when he was just 3 months old. That was a really hard transition for us, but Wise Owl made it feel so much easier from the start. The Montessori approach was really important to us. Our son is constantly learning through hands on activities like painting and sensory play, and it’s been really rewarding to watch his development. The teachers are what truly make this place. They are warm, attentive, and genuinely care about the kids. The Brightwheel updates are great for staying on top of the day to day, but what stands out most is how tuned in they are. They notice small changes in behavior and help guide us on upcoming milestones. It really feels like we’re partnering together, not just dropping him off. That sense of partnership matters. Raising a kid is hard, and having a team that feels like part of your village makes a huge difference. They’ve also built a strong sense of community with events, spirit weeks, and little touches that show how much thought goes into everything they do. And small detail, but the food always smells amazing haha! We feel really lucky to have found Wise Owl and would absolutely recommend it.

  • Wise Owl has been such a positive part of our son's life. He started at 6 months and from the moment we began, we have felt so loved and cared for. Now 2 years old, my son speaks positively about school and all his friends. The staff are warm, loving, and have been very accommodating to us. Teachers prepare thoughtful lessons to engage students. They have clear routines that my son thrives with. A great bonus is that he is learning some Spanish and surprised me one day by counting up to 10 in Spanish (haha!). Staff and admin keep parents up to date with pictures through the brightwheel app and are very communicative and responsive. The meals are prepared in house and look yummy and healthy. I appreciate how the classes go out on nature walks or to the park almost daily weather permitting, even sometimes in the colder months. We are so pleased with Wise Owl, thank you for everything you do!!

  • We are so happy we chose Wise Owl for our baby! As first time parents, we were very nervous about starting daycare. The staff has done an amazing job taking care of our baby and we can see how much she loves being there. I know that her teachers, Ms. Norma and Ms. Jimesha, take amazing care of her and send us lots of pictures throughout the day that make us feel close to her. They also do so many fun sensory and other developmental activities with her and I can see how she is growing there. The food is prepared in house and looks both delicious and nutritious. All of the other staff are also amazing and the administrators have been so supportive especially Ms. Chloee. We highly recommend Wise Owl to any new parents!

  • We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Wise Owl Daycare! From the moment our daughter started, we could tell this was more than just childcare, it’s a place where children genuinely learn, grow, and thrive. The educational programs are thoughtfully designed to spark curiosity and creativity, while also building important early learning skills. Every day our daughter comes home excited to tell us about what she learned and the fun activities she did (and even wants us to reenact them at home). A special thank you to Ms. Lupita and Ms. Jocelyn, who have made such a positive impact on her development. Their warmth, patience, and enthusiasm shine through in everything they do. They truly know how to make learning fun, and it’s clear they care deeply about each child in their classroom. We’re so grateful to have found such a nurturing and inspiring environment for our daughter. Wise Owl Daycare has exceeded all our expectations and we can’t recommend it highly enough!

  • This daycare is absolutely amazing! My nieces and nephew attend, and we’ve seen how much they’ve learned and grown since starting here. The teachers and staff are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to the children. Every day they see us they are excited to share new things, which shows just how much they are learning in a fun and safe environment. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a place where their kids will not only be cared for, but also encouraged to grow, learn, and thrive. We couldn’t be happier with the experience!
