  • I trust this place with my life (quite literally)! Since Ms Amber has become director I love it here even more!! My child has been here since a toddler and now into preschool and I feel so safe having her here. The teachers are amazing. Ms Gloria, Ms Ally, Ms Holly, Ms Haley and all the aids are fantastic beyond words. My child has a hard time transitioning into the next thing and letting mom go but she will push me out the door to go play lol or if she is having a hard day, ms Amber or the teachers (Ally and Gloria) will jump in with their tricks to get her to ease in and smile and let go of mom happily. My child loves them and has her best friend there. Not a huge fan of the owner Anna. I think the staff should be payed more and parents shouldn’t have to pay for all the holidays and closings that happen. But I still love this location so much. My son went to the Farmington one years ago and loved that one too. I’m still friends with his old teachers. Also shout out to Ms Teressa, she’s wonderful when she fills in for Amber and is so kind and great with the kids. One million stars for this place.

  • We have attended Anna's Bananas for the past five years and absolutely love it. But more importantly, the girls love being there. Through Anna's Banana's, the girls have developed an excitement learning and a skillset that prepares them well for school, but in a way that is fun and engaging. (Our Kindergarten teacher told us she found that Anna's Banana's kids always do well transitioning to school!) The extra activities are wonderful. Soccer, Dance, Music and Tumbling are offered, which add additional variety and a chance for the kids to try out new things throughout the day for a small additional cost. The Daily Connect updates are reassuring and fun to see throughout the day. I found them quite comforting when my daughter was an infant. Teachers are caring and really spend time talking with you about their day. Highly recommend.

  • How can you not love a place called Anna's Bananas? We have been going to Anna's for almost five years now and have loved every minute of it. It has been so much fun watching our daughters learn and grow. The staff are deserving of all the credit. They execute an amazing curriculum and we know our girls are in good hands from morning to evening. We enjoy seeing the updates on Daily Connect which includes pictures, meals and activities. This communication was extremely important to me when my youngest was not willing to drink from a bottle when I returned to work. Her teachers kept me updated hour after hour and we celebrated when she would drink an ounce or two and eventually she got up to full bottles. I'm so grateful her teachers had the patience and heart to keep trying each and every day. They truly care about your children as if they were their own. We have always called Anna's "school" and not day care. My oldest is going to kindergarten next fall and her new teachers are going to have some really big shoes to fill! You cannot go wrong with enrolling your children at Anna's Bananas. It is a great place to start their education!

  • Our family loves Anna's Bananas! My kids have thrived at this center, and they've been wonderful at accommodating my child's special needs. My oldest was so well prepared for kindergarten after the preschool program at Anna's Bananas. The staff is professional, and has become like family as amazing caregivers, my children love them. The Daily Connect is a great way to communicate with teachers in the middle of the day and see the fun things they do daily. It makes being a working parent a bit easier. We would never go anywhere else!

  • We absolutely love Anna’s Bananas!! We have been sending our kids there for over 4 years. Our son and daughter adore their teachers!! Our son always talks about how all the teachers love him and how nice the teachers are there. We never worry when our kids are in their hands. Daily connect app is awesome for sending messages to teachers or getting updates on your little one’s activities. The kids are busy with learning and playing all day. They also allow for flexible days which is awesome since my work days change. Hours are great too!!

  • We have been at Anna's Bananas for years and love it! My daughter started in the toddler program and stayed through preschool graduation. My son is a toddler there now and loves it! He talks about all his classmates and teachers as his friends. The staff knows him and they go out of their way to greet him or say goodbye. The Daily Connect offers constant communication about his day with pictures too so we can talk about what he did on the ride home.
