  • My daughter has been here since she was little and at the age of 5 she has never complained once about going to "school"! She LOVES it! Amazing and caring staff, makes her feel right at home and she comes home learning so much! Highly Recommend!

  • From my experiences at the east Brookfield center, Dipody Doo is a gem of a daycare and a cut above all the rest. The teachers are beyond gifted, and give such thorough and caring attention to my daughter, no matter if your kid learns a little differently. I feel like every kid’s light is allowed to shine there. The large window of pick up and drop off times make it so convenient for parents. Their communication skills are excellent. I couldn’t believe all the thought and detail that was put into our teacher/child conference for instance. They really are seeing/observing and loving our child. The daily reports that they send during the day are so thorough and filled with care. I trust them fully with my kid. It’s such a wonderful group of people there, I really could go on and on. This is a very special daycare that totally know what they’re doing when it comes to childcare and child development. 5 stars and beyond!

  • Cannot say enough good things about Dipody Doo. First and foremost, my daughter is excited and looks forward to going to school every day. She has cultivated amazing bonds with her teachers and they are always there to meet any concern or issue that you and your child may come across. The activities and outdoor play that takes place everyday is great. Teachers are constantly in communication with parents throughout the day, posting updates about the child’s day and pictures. My daughter has learned and grown so much here and if I had to do it all over again, I would not hesitate to choose Dipody Doo!

  • All three of my children have attended Dipody Doo. I have always been impressed with how well the staff handle the day today craziness of childcare. They are always so kind to my children and I love seeing my children. Be so happy to see their teachers every day. The staff work very hard at Dipody Doo and I am so appreciative.

  • I can’t say enough about the Spencer location. I first reached out in the fall feeling disheartened and very frustrated with the care my son was receiving at a former facility. Shawna was warm and welcoming from the first conversation we had, and after we toured the center I said to my husband, “Wow, I didn’t know I should feel this great about sending my child somewhere.” Shawna worked hard to help us secure a full time spot for our son (at the time there were not 5 full days open for him) and she runs a great center. The preschool classroom teachers are, to put it simply, amazing, and my son comes home daily with a new song he learned, a fun craft he did, or a story about how fun Ms. Kara & Ms. Jaymee are. They both show such care and compassion when working with the children and my son adores them. I also LOVE the photos and posts on Brightwheel. It’s so nice to receive those! We haven’t looked back once since making the switch and are so grateful for all the Dipody Doo staff!

  • I truly can’t think of one negative thing to say. The pallet of care they provide for children is amazing. I have not met a teacher yet that I feel uncomfortable with leaving my children with. I’ve had one child there since infancy and one child started at preschool age. My preschooler is extremely difficult at times however, each teacher has made it a priority to figure out what works best for my child and how they can help him succeed daily. If something happens(they fall or are sick) I am notified immediately with a picture to follow. The director and owner always go above an beyond for every event & helping everyone feel safe and comfortable. Highly recommend them ❤️
