My son has attended here for about 2 years now, he has just entered his 3rd room since starting and we've been very happy with the care and patience my son has received. From Paula who gave us a tour, to Miss. Olivia, Miss Laurie and Miss. Carolyn, to Mr. Patrick, Ms. Emily, and Miss Taylor... And now Miss Sam, Miss Bonnie, Miss Tiffany, Miss Maggie and Miss Shannon... Did I miss anyone? I'm sure I have because each and every teacher in that building makes a point to know my child and help make him feel happy and welcomed. I would definitely recommend Duck Duck Goose to any new parents who are looking for consistent child care.
Kerry SyracuseSep 17, 2024We can’t say enough amazing things about Duck Duck goose and all the lovely people that work there! My son started there when he was 2.5. He is now 5. He had some challenges with his ASD and communication; however the team at DDG showed him nothing but kindness and compassion. My son is moving on to kindergarten this fall and will no longer be at the daycare. We are so very sad! Everyone has been truly amazing and I cannot thank them enough for being a part of my son’s journey!
Melissa StepanskiAug 31, 2024DDG is awesome! The teachers are very friendly and the kids love the atmosphere. The onsite playground is clutch.
Samuel MorganAug 26, 2023My two older children are enrolled here, I was pregnant knowing the baby was going to be there as well! They failed to tell me that there was no spot for him, now I’m on a waitlist because there’s other parents trying to get their infants in. I think that if you have kids enrolled already you should get the spot before someone else! Disappointed, we loved duck duck goose but now it’s becoming a headache!
Morgan AboiteAug 14, 2023Honestly my experience here has been great! They were very efficient about getting my 4 year old son enrolled and the class structure they provide is a ton of educational fun for him! Currently my son is split between two providers and he hands down seems to prefer the staff, class and environment here!
Jason VorhisDec 27, 2022Not happy enrolled my son and after 1 month he is let go because they can’t deal with him. I have donated my time came in to find a teacher all angry at him talking down to him. They have only stated oh today he had a good day, and then every once in awhile he will have a hard day but they always brush it off. Don’t enroll your kid here! They collected the tuition and kicked him out!
