  • I felt compelled to leave this review after reading some of the negative comments because they do not reflect my family’s experience at all. All five of my children have attended Argentina’s Child Care at ParkSide over the past nine years. My oldest started in 2017, and since then, every one of my children, including my 4 year old, 3 year old, and 1 year old twin girls, has been cared for with love, professionalism, and dedication. I did not know Argentina before enrolling my children, but over the years I have developed tremendous respect and appreciation for her and the entire team. The administrators, teachers, and staff have always treated my family with kindness, care, and professionalism. As a parent of five, I know children can have behavioral challenges, and sometimes families are quick to blame the daycare instead of accepting constructive feedback. In my experience, ParkSide has always prioritized the well being and development of the children in its care. No one asked me to write this review. I simply felt it was important to share my honest experience after seeing comments that I believe do not represent the quality of care provided. For my family, ParkSide has been nothing short of exceptional, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and professional childcare center in Lawrence. I recommend ParkSide 1000%. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • My daughter kk has been at this daycare for a couple of years now, and I truly can’t express how thankful I am for everything they’ve done for her. Watching her grow, learn, and get ready for kindergarten has been such a blessing. The teachers and staff have played such a huge role in her development , from learning her letters and numbers to building confidence and friendships. She is so sad to leave because this place has become like a second home to her, and honestly, we’re going to miss everyone so much. As a mom who tends to worry , I always appreciated how they kept me updated and reassured. Knowing she was in such caring and capable hands gave me so much peace of mind. If you're a parent looking for a safe, loving, and educational environment for your child, this is absolutely the best place to be. Thank you again for everything 💛

  • I can’t say enough wonderful things about my son’s daycare! From the moment we enrolled, the staff made us feel like part of a family. The caregivers are incredibly nurturing, attentive, and professional. My son comes home every day happy, excited to tell us about the activities he did and the friends he made. The facility is always clean, safe, and well-organized, and the curriculum is fun and educational. It’s clear that the team puts a lot of thought into early childhood development and tailors activities to help each child grow and thrive. Communication is also top-notch—they keep us well-informed with daily updates, photos, and newsletters. Most importantly, we feel completely confident and at peace knowing our child is in such caring and capable hands. This daycare has truly made a positive impact on our son’s growth and confidence. Highly recommend to any parent looking for quality care and a nurturing environment!

  • I personally love Parkside Children’s Academy. My daughter is going to have 3 years there and her growth has been amazing. The daycare provides a secure environment where children feel loved and cared for, with staff members who are dedicated to their well- being. I do recommend Parkside.

  • I’ve had my children enrolled in this center for several years now, and I can confidently say it’s the best one out there. The care, love, and dedication the staff shows every day is unmatched. My kids have grown so much, both academically and emotionally, thanks to the nurturing environment they’ve created. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would—my oldest would even give it a 10! I’m beyond grateful for everything they do. Highly recommend!

  • Parkside Children's Academy is so much more than a preschool, it’s a loving community full of passionate staff who cares about each child that walks through their doors. The moment I stepped inside I knew it was the perfect place for my daughter who I was so scared of letting go when she was 2. I wish I could give them more stars because they are the only preschool I trust with my kids.
