If you want your kids to not be watched properly and spend spend almost 400 a week this is the perfect place to go. They have one of the highest turnover rates I've seen in daycare workers because management is trash. A majority of the workers are on their cellphones when I come to pick up my daughter half the time. My daughter had an incident where her boundaries were crossed after telling another kid she needed space and bit them (not leaving any mark or teeth indents) they count it as an automatic pick up and send the child home. Biting is a big problem at this daycare, unfortunately, but the workers never seem to intervene in time. Any incidents that happen, they send your child home immediately even if your kid was not there for an hour yet and refuse to give you the credit back. They also close constantly, every holiday is an off day, big or small, so if you're working, sucks for you. Sometimes they have days closed just for 'teacher work days' but its more frequent than any place I've ever been. There has also been instances where workers call out so they dont have enough room to watch your kid meaning you're child is home and you are still paying them. The moment you get frustrated with them, talking calmly, no swearing,no name calling, they terminate your care. I highly recommend against this daycare.
Desiree MonegueMay 30, 2025Our kids have been going to GL since 2020 and we’ve loved it! Some turnover with staff during the pandemic (totally normal) - but we have always been impressed with how GL prioritizes having quality teachers in the classrooms.
Lillian StilesApr 12, 2023Our son started at Growing Learners in the infant room in early 2019. We continue to be incredibly impressed by their philosophy, care, attention, and thoughtful approach to childcare. Every teacher we have worked with offers extraordinarily perceptive feedback while appreciating and enjoying our son’s personality. We recently moved to a different town but are so pleased with Growing Learners that we’ve decided to commute.
Kristina FamolareSep 30, 2020My son started going to Growing Learners about 2 weeks and he loves it. He's never been to a child care center before so I was so nervous that he won't be comfortable and socialized but Alyssa and the teachers are amazing. They are all kind and patient and keep me up to date with what's going on. I am very happy and also want to thank all the teachers for the hard work, especially during the pandemic!
Xiaojiang LingJun 3, 2020We LOVE this day care! They are so organized. The activities are so varied. The teachers are warm and professional. They provide healthy food and snacks. What more could you want!
