Children's Choice Learning Center

"My son has been attending this daycare for over four years now, and my daughter almost three years. The director, Tawana Daly, is very sweet and loving towards the kids. She truly cares about children and it shows daily! If I ever have any concerns, she makes sure they are addressed right away. It is hard to find a daycare where you can trust the staff with your children, but I know my children are safe and in great hands here at Children's Choice."

"They have been amazing with my three kiddos over the last year. My 4 yo had a rough time transitioning as we just moved and the staff, especially the director, worked with him and us as a family to ensure we were able to make him comfortable. They all go out of their way to make everyone feel a part of the community and I could not be more thankful for such caring individuals who go above and beyond for our children. My kiddos are excited to go to daycare every morning especially when they can see Mr. Mike, Ms. Lesli and Ms. Tawana. I highly recommend CCLC!"

"As someone who has worked in childcare I would not recommend sending your child here. While working with children you know there will be a variety of behaviors and attitudes. Just like adults, kids have bad days too but the way you handle the situation makes all the difference. However, at no point should a teacher, let alone a director, put their hands on anyone else’s child! Ms.Tawana Daly, the director, made sure that when she explained what happened in the incident to leave out the part of her aggressively grasping and shaking the child’s face. If this is how the director is handling situations then I could only imagine what she is allowing the teachers and other staff to do in escalated situations."

"My 4yo son has been going here for a few months now, and recently we’ve been having complaints from this center that he’s been acting up. Not listening to teachers, being disruptive, saying bad words, etc. Since they have a camera system, I decided that today I would set it up on my desk at work and watch the class all day. My son was hardly disruptive except for around nap time when he was a little restless, but eventually fell asleep. Later on, he dumped a box of crayons on the table and I was told that the teacher asked him to pick them up, but he did not. Not once did I see her give him a slight chance to pick them up himself, before she decided to pick them up herself, which was all within a span of 2 minutes. He’s 4, you’ve got to ask him more than once and make eye contact with him or else he will tune you out. Besides, it seemed like she was talking to nothing when speaking to any kids at all. None of them listened to her, because she wasn’t grabbing their attention. I also saw some kids wrap a rope around a little girl and pretend she was a horse, and she pulled some kids around the classroom. My son was sitting down coloring a picture. Once the other kids started getting rowdy, the teacher got overwhelmed and opened the door to call for another teacher to help. Another teacher arrived, grabbed my son by the hand and lead him out of the room, not to return for several minutes. I gave them the benefit of the doubt, assumed maybe they took him to the potty. Then the teacher came back into the classroom without my son in tow. I called the center to ask where my son was, they told me he was sitting by himself in the lunch room because he was not listening to his teacher when she asked him to clean up. All of the kids in the class were acting up, and yet somehow my son, out of all of them, was singled out and taken out of the class to be isolated. They tried to say that he was saying bad words and that as of today he would be suspended for 3 days, but the words he used were “butt” and “boobies”, which are body parts, not bad words. These reasons they gave me, alone, were not write-up or suspension worthy. I’m unsure if we will continue to enroll him, but daycare openings are a little sparse at the moment."

"My children (ages 7 and 18 months) walk in to Children’s Choice like it is there own home! I can’t express enough how much that means to me! The way they have handled the pandemic has put my mind at ease. When I was out of work and couldn’t afford daycare, they did not stop our enrollment or ask for tuition. 6 weeks later they were able to return to a familiar and welcoming environment, like they never left. The updates to the facility are amazing! Now that it is summer, my daughter is super excited about all the awesome activities they have planned! I can’t thank them enough for keeping my children safe, feeding them hot meals, and making them feel loved and cared for."
