  I cannot say enough wonderful things about this daycare! My son has been so happy here, and it gives me such peace of mind knowing he is surrounded by caring, loving, and responsible people every day. A very special thank you to Director Ms. Madhu, who is truly one of the most compassionate and dedicated directors I've ever met. She genuinely cares about every child and always goes above and beyond to make families feel welcome and supported. I also want to recognize the amazing staff—Angela, Ms. Sabrina, Agnes, Mr. Shawn, Mr Michael, and Brianca. Each of them has shown my son so much kindness, patience, and love. They are attentive, responsible, and treat the children as if they were their own. As a parent, there is nothing more important than knowing your child is safe, happy, and well cared for. I am incredibly grateful for everything this team does every single day. Thank you all for creating such a warm, nurturing, and positive environment. I highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for exceptional care for their child!

  We’ve been really happy with our experience at Learn and Play Daycare. As parents, the biggest thing for us is knowing our baby is being watched closely and genuinely cared for, and that’s exactly how it feels here. The sitters are attentive, patient, and clearly engaged throughout the day, which gives us a lot of peace of mind. We also really appreciate how clean everything is. The floors are always spotless, and you can tell they put real effort into keeping the space safe for babies who are crawling and playing. Communication has been another big plus. We get consistent updates, and the staff is always easy to talk to if anything comes up. Overall, it’s just a place that feels reliable and caring, which is exactly what we were hoping for. We’re really glad we found it

  Our son spent a year at this daycare and had a wonderful experience! The staff is caring and attentive and administration is communicative and professional. I appreciated the detailed daily updates and could tell that my son enjoyed being there whenever I came to pick him up. The hours are also very convenient for working parents.

  Learn & Play is a lifesaver! The staff are incredible and so sweet. The hours work perfectly with my full-time work. I am so thankful that this place is so close to me. I love the indoor playground which works perfectly in the winter and super hot days. My son loves it!

  We have been Learn and Play parents for over three years and couldn’t be happier. I have two sons who have attended learn and play. They come home every day happy and well taken care of. The staff of learn and play are caring, receptive, and nurturing. Madhu and the office team are helpful and flexible when I have requests. Learn and Play is a true gem, and I’m lucky to have found them for my children!

  We were really nervous about enrolling our daughter to preschool here after a really bad experience at another daycare a year and half ago, that left our daughter a bit traumatized. However, our experience here from day one has been great. Her teacher, Ms. Millie is absolutely amazing as well as every single staff member there. We are happy we chose Learn and Play for our daughter.
