  • We absolutely love Ducklings! From the moment we started, the teachers have been so welcoming, nurturing, and genuinely caring. It's clear they truly love what they do, and it shows in the way they interact with the kids. The facility is always clean and well-maintained, and communication is excellent- they notify you right away if anything comes up. Most importantly, my son loves going there every day, which brings us so much peace of mind. Highly recommend to any parent looking for a safe and loving environment for their child!

  • We have nothing but great things to say about our time at Ducklings. The facility is new, clean and has a nice playground and gym. Miss Anna is a wonderful teacher. She is thoughtful and kind, provides frequent updates with photos on how our child is doing and is always in a positive and upbeat mood. The Directors are top notch and excel at communication and transparency, which is one of the most important things to us. We have never had to question what our child is doing throughout the day or what events are coming up during the week. We were previously at another well known daycare chain in the area and Ducklings blows them out of the park in every single way.

  • Wonderful daycare! Our baby has been there since 4mo old. Absolutely nice experience.

  • What a wonderful place to send our baby! Our child has been at Ducklings GV since he was 5 months old. I don't have much to compare it to since this is our first child, but I feel like the care and attention he receives here is superior. Their facility is always clean and tidy inside and outside. There are an endless number of activities for the children and most importantly the staff is friendly and caring. Our child is happy at drop-off and you can tell he enjoys his time there. The owner is also an operator and is onsite nearly daily. I think this is important because she is truly invested in the business and she even sends her own children there. I'm a bit of an anxiety mom so I love the convenience of the app they use to share updates and photos. I continue to recommend this Ducklings location to friends and family over and over again.

  • This is such an awesome place for kids, very lively and creative. Teachers are super super nice with all kids and my little one instantly connects and is always super excited to learn and have fun. Ms. Cheryl, Ms. Terri, Ms. Pam, Ms. Nalini, Ms. Mercedes, Ms. Amy, Ms. Lynn and teachers from other classrooms have all been wonderful. Sorry, too many names to list.

What is DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY's Keystone STARS rating?

Pennsylvania rates DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY STAR 1, on a scale of one to four where four is highest. That tier took effect on November 21, 2022. Keystone STARS measures programme standards such as staff qualifications and learning environment, not inspection outcomes.

Does Pennsylvania record a negative sanction against DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY?

No. The state's provider dataset records no negative sanction against DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY at the time the record was published. That is a single field in a snapshot, not a full compliance history, and it is not the same as a clean inspection record. The licensing inspection detail is at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch.

Does this page show inspection results for DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY?

No. Pennsylvania completes at least one unannounced inspection a year at every licensed provider, and publishes the results through the provider search at compass.dhs.pa.gov/providersearch. Those results are not included here, and there is no open dataset of them, so nothing on this page reflects DUCKLINGS EARLY LEARNING CENTER GREAT VALLEY's inspection history either way. Look the provider up there and read the licensing inspection record.
