Testimonials
My oldest son started at this center when he was 4 months old at the beginning of 2021. He has thrived in all the classrooms and is now in the GSRP classroom. My youngest son also started when he was 4 months old at the end of 2024. We love the new director, the assistant director, and all the staff. Over the past almost 5 years, we have seen such great improvement, with the staff, the building, and the learning. We love this center and the people in it. I know my oldest will be so sad to leave for kindergarten, but we are happy we have some more years here with our youngest son. Thank you all so much for taking such great care of our children, when we cannot.
This is a bit of a drive for us, but so worth it, and I know our daughter is in great hands! Was very impressed from the start with the Director, Lindsay. She is absolutely on it and is a great communicator. And it looks like she has really turned this place around since she has been there. We absolutely love Ms. Emily. I highly recommend Central Day Care.
My daughter has attended CDCC since 2021, when she was a year old. This week is her last week before she moves on to kindergarten. Over the past four years we were very happy with CDCC. Our daughter was always cared for, and she was happy with her school. We witnessed so many great changes over the past few years that has made tremendous improvements for the kids. We can’t thank the teachers and staff enough for taking care of our child. The teachers were always kind and caring. I also had an amazing opportunity to volunteer, and take an active part in my daughter’s child care center. It’s sad leaving, and we are so thankful to the teachers, administrators, and volunteers at CDCC for caring about the children. We will miss you!!
The new director has turned this place around. We briefly had our kids here 18 months ago, then moved them to the YMCA. When YMCA announced they lost their lease, we move our kids back here. It’s been a night and day difference between then and now. The new director is deeply engaged and clearly cares about the success of the school. This seems to have had a massive trickle down effect across the rest of our staff. My youngest runs to her room the moment we get to school (and won’t even hug me goodbye because she’s so excited). My oldest complains when I pick her up too early since she doesn’t want to leave school. The kids are doing an activity nearly every day. Both are counting better, talking better, and overall more confident. My oldest _wants_ to brush her teeth ever since they learned about teeth. It’s been a pleasant surprise to see how much they’re flourishing here.
Our daughter has been attending Central Daycare Center since July 2022. We have seen an impact in regards to social skills and ongoing learning. Her daily interactions now include friendships with other children and staff. Although never easy to entrust others with your children, the staff plan activities for the kids to look forward to and are supportive. We know that our child has benefited from being here and looks forward to going. (Especially on Pizza Friday). Thank you for all the work you do for our daughter in order to allow us to work. We appreciate you taking care of our little girl.
Both of my boys are attending/have attended CDCC. Currently, my medical and special needs son attends CDDC. My son is fed strictly by a feeding tube. All of the staff have been accepting and willing to learn how to care for my son and how to use his feeding tube. They have been accommodating to all of my requests for his care and follow my directions to a T. They ask questions if they aren't sure about something before they do it. They keep in good contact on the brightwheel app and update verbally upon pickup. It isn't easy leaving your child in the care of someone else, especially if they have special/medical needs. They keep special plans in my child's file to let staff know what to do if he has a seizure, trouble with his feeding tube or other medical event. The staff & management at CDCC are fantastic and truly care for their kiddos and the center as a whole. I can see how happy and comfortable my son is when I drop off/pickup! We love it at CDCC!
We have two children that have attended central daycare since they were infants and have been given excellent care by the staff. Our oldest now knows most of the Children and teachers names in his classrooms and enjoys talking about them. His vocabulary has drastically expanded and we believe the teachers and surrounding children have helped! We also love seeing all of the creative projects both children bring home. The teachers go above and beyond to create these projects and the schedule for each classroom. It warms our heart to know our children are in good hands and have fun while at daycare.
