Children First Child Development Center

Children First is truly an amazing daycare! The staff are warm, caring, and attentive, and they make every child feel welcome and loved. Communication with parents is excellent—they keep us updated and involved, which gives such peace of mind. The classrooms are clean, safe, and full of engaging activities that support both learning and play. It’s clear that the teachers genuinely care about the children’s growth and happiness. I’m so grateful to have found such a nurturing environment where my kids can thrive. Highly recommend!

My daughter has been going here since she was an infant. We love the staff, and the rooms are very well kept, clean, and engaging. I appreciate the focus on teaching children life skills alongside the ABCs, colors, and the rest!

I send my one year old son here and hes been there since he was around six months old and i absolutely love it for him! He has shown so much growth with being here! The staff and management team are absolutely amazing!

My daughter attended Children First for almost a year in the 2 year old classroom. During that year, she had 5 head teachers in her classroom and multiple assistants coming and going. There would be anywhere from 7-15 children in the classroom. The lack of stability & unable to keep staff is very difficult on a toddler, but in spite of that, any issue my hold had adjusting was because of her & not the environment. My daughter was bitten multiple times, enough to leave marks, but the teachers never saw it happen… My daughter WAS a little behind in terms of development, I had birth to three and therapists come in to assist the teachers & even they have said that it’s the STAFF’s lack of training, not my daughter. Considering it’s called CHILD DEVELOPMENT CENTER, the staff has very little training or certification on actual childhood development. Since she no longer attends, she has had an incredible increase in her language and overall development. Funny how that works. I have received plenty of unprovoked, inappropriate, and non professional comments from staff. Her teacher stated at pickup one day that “my daughter makes both of us [teachers] feel like failures & want to quit our jobs everyday.” Needless to say, after the director stopped taking the teachers word and actually did some observing, she was removed from that room due to “staff personality issues.” …. My daughter and I were informed that we were not allowed to come back after an incident occurring with another child, which is insane considering she’s had literal bite marks from other children and nothing was ever done. They will also continue to take your $630 as payment after you’ve been removed so that it’s extremely hard for you to find anywhere else after losing childcare with no notice! Oh and don’t forget where they randomly raise tuition by 13%! There are some good people here, and they have a strong suit in potty training, but for over $1200 per month, you can find better.

I would give them 1000 stars if I could. Unfortunately, we had to move and cannot even find a place that comes close to here. In relation to everywhere else we’ve been, the teachers actually care about your children, they stay for a fairly long time, they’re involved, and it’s a great center over all. They use an app to communicate and are extremely quick with answering. They take pride in making sure your child doesn’t come to school sick and making others sick. We have absolutely nothing, but good things to say for the time we were there.
