Casa de Corazón - Highland Park

Our kiddo will be graduating from Casa soon and overall, it was just an amazing experience for our kiddo and our family. The Casa team is so warm and the environment is one of the most welcoming I have seen. The curriculum was extremely beneficial and after two short years, our family has learned so much, both focused on language and culture. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

My child has attended Casa for just under 2 years and we've been so pleased with our experience. We weren't necessarily looking for a Spanish immersion school, but now that we've done it, I cannot image not doing it! The staff is so warm and kind, loves that everyone knows my child by name and cares about their well being. I love that they have a lot of group activities which made me happy that it wasn't just a room of a bunch of kids playing on their own always. Their commitment to sustainability with the reusable diapers (that they wash!), providing bottles and cups, and of course all of the amazing food, that has gotten my child to have a wider variety diet than I do. Not to mention all of the hands on activities of art projects that they use from recycled and found materials. My child's development has been completely enriched by attending Casa.

It was hard leaving our 3 month old with anyone initially but Casa was super accommodating with our transition. Now we’ve been with Casa for four months and absolutely adore watching our son’s excited face when he sees his teachers. Their sustainable practices and global perspective helps me feel like my son is learning in an environment that is teaching him to embrace differences and celebrate diversity. It is expensive but similar to other daycare centers in the area. If you can make it work in your budget, I recommend Casa!

My family absolutely LOVES Casa de Corazon! My son has an amazing time, learning and growing with Spanish Immersion every day. He looks forward to the cultural learning and arts and crafts they do. The kids get plenty of large muscle time in either the indoor gym or outside on their large playground equipment area. They have supported potty learning as well as all other areas appropriate to his age. They also serve meals and snacks, so I don’t have to worry about prepping and bringing food daily. If you are looking for caring and loving staff and a Spanish Immersion program, look no further!

We have two kids who are attending Casa and could not be happier. First and foremost, the teachers love our kids, and our kids love the teachers. We immediately got a strong feeling for how caring and supportive all of the teachers are. Second, the administrative staff is fantastic as well. Jennifer, the owner, is frequently on site and knows all the kids and families. We have been at other centers where that has not been the case. The center directors are also great as well--very friendly and knowledgeable. Next, the curriculum is great. Both kids are learning so much. They speak Spanish very well (we are not Spanish speakers so they are getting it all from school) and are learning everything they need to be prepared for school (reading, writing, math, social skills, etc). Finally, the facility is also wonderful. It's a large, well-equipped center with plenty of areas for the kids to play indoors and out. Overall, it's a really great school that we very highly recommend!
