Highly recommend! We've had our daughter at Little Wiggles for over a year now, and are so grateful for the care they provide: incredible meals, engaging activities, clear and quick communication, easy access to her daily routines via their app, and more. Even more importantly than what we think, though, our daughter LOVES going to Little Wiggles. It's clear that Gladiris and Diana take excellent care of her individually and cultivate great relationships with the other kids as well, as the first words out of our daughter's mouth when we pick her up are often her telling us all about her friends she was with that day.
Joshua KlevornSep 18, 2025We love Little Wiggles! Our little guy has had a fantastic couple of years here so far and we are so happy with the care, flexibility, learning, and sense of community we've had here.
Giles ReidAug 19, 2025I can’t say enough good things about Little Wiggles daycare. They are loving professionals with clean facilities and they work hard to also educate the children. I’ve had two kids go to Wiggles for daycare from 7 months old until about 5 years old. My kids learned their letters and colors as well as sharing and caring. My kids also greatly appreciated the healthy, home cooked meals provided by Little Wiggles. Absolutely recommend this place.
Kally SparksJul 23, 2025Diana and Gladiris are wonderful caregivers to our 11 month old son who has been in full time care with them since 5 months old. He comes home happy, and is always so happy to see them! They are very communicative and have been so helpful with keeping him on track for milestones when it comes to moving to solids, motor skills and transitioning from the bottle to sippy cup. We feel very lucky to be a part of the Wiggles family!
hollie van osenbruggenJul 23, 2025I had the pleasure of sending my son to Wiggles Daycare from the tender age of 4 months until he was nearly 2 years old, and I can confidently say that it was an absolutely fantastic experience. It is with a heavy heart that we had to leave to this incredible daycare as we recently moved away. Wiggles Daycare, run by the two caring sisters, Gladiris and Diana, created an environment that truly felt like a second home for our family. One of the standout qualities of Wiggles Daycare is the genuine love and care that Gladiris and Diana shower upon the children. From the very first day, it was evident that they treated each child as if they were their own, fostering a nurturing and safe atmosphere that put our minds at ease. Our son formed a beautiful bond with them, and we were always comforted knowing that he was in such loving hands. What truly sets Wiggles Daycare apart is the exceptional attention they give to the children's development and education. Every day, Gladiris and Diana provided home-cooked meals, ensuring that our little ones received nourishing, healthy, and delicious food. It was such a relief to know that our son was enjoying nutritious meals prepared with love. Moreover, the daycare follows a comprehensive curriculum designed specifically for young children, which is a rarity to find in daycare centers. Even at his young age, my son was able to actively participate in the daily lessons and engage with educational activities. I was amazed to see him learn the days of the week and count to ten in both English and Spanish when he was just a little over a year old! Wiggles Daycare truly fosters a love for learning, creating a solid foundation for a child's future academic endeavors. Communication between the daycare and parents is important, and Wiggles use an app to keep parents informed about their child's daily activities, meals, and any updates. This app kept us involved in our son's day, and we always felt connected to his experiences at the daycare. Lastly, the location of Wiggles Daycare is incredibly convenient, particularly for parents working at Columbia Medical Center. The close proximity allows for easy drop-offs and pick-ups, minimizing any potential stress associated with busy schedules. In our search for a new daycare after relocating, we quickly realized that finding a place as exceptional as Wiggles Daycare was a daunting task. The loving atmosphere, dedicated staff, nutritious meals, well-structured curriculum, and convenient location make Wiggles Daycare a true gem in the realm of childcare. Without a doubt, I wholeheartedly recommend Wiggles Daycare- Gladiris and Diana have created a daycare that exceeds expectations, and we will forever cherish the memories and experiences our son had at Wiggles Daycare.
K ObJul 13, 2023Wiggles Daycare is great, I've been bringing my daughter here for almost 2 years now and she loves it. They are really caring and attentive. Kids learn a lot and quick in a great environment.
