"I am so thankful for Whizz Kids LFP. My daughter loves it there, and is happy to go every single morning. She talks about her friends there all the time, including the wonderful teachers she has. I trust the staff implicitly. I also appreciate that Whizz Kids does it's best to retain quality staff in a really challenging environment - even if that means I have to pick up my daughter early once a month so the staff can focus on professional development, or I have to pay a bit more so they can attempt to provide a living wage. I LOVE that the teachers are documenting my daughter's growth and progress in the app so I can see, and that there are twice-yearly conferences to discuss her progress and challenges. All in all, I feel very lucky to have found a place where I feel really good about leaving my daughter everyday so I can go to work."

"Our family has had such a wonderful experience at Whizz Kids! The family communication is fantastic and I love the focus on outdoor play, social emotional skills, and our daughter loves going to school each day. We are SO grateful to be a part of the Whizz Kids community and would highly recommend it to anyone!"

"We are beyond grateful for the skilled, caring, and individualized care that Whizz Kids provides. We feel SO lucky to have found them. Destiny is such a responsive and caring director. Every single teacher has been so experienced and knowledgeable as well as open to parent feedback. It truly feels like a collaborative and community oriented place, even amidst the pandemic. They know how to make kids feel safe and respected, no matter their differences, and that is GOLD. I wish that the child-lead, experiential and exploration based curriculum could be was prevalent in elementary too. So thankful!"

"My grandson is two years old and is in the toddler room. He loves it! We tried a different center that he never adjusted to and after 3 weeks my daughter and I agreed something was not right. At Whizz Kids the teachers know how to help with the separation anxiety and make a little one trust he'll be cared for throughout the day. It appears to us that he is given so many opportunities for fun and learning. Even the toddlers have cooking projects, science, plenty of outdoor fun both in covered and uncovered areas, and are taught to clean up after themselves-all in a positive, loving way. I am a former Montessori preschool teacher myself and I know that Whizz Kids provides quality care and education. Thank you for the great job you do. We're truly grateful to have found you."

"Just wanted to send a quick note about how truly thankful my husband and I are for care at Whizz Kids. Both he and I have noted that the interactions between the staff and the children are done with purposeful care and of the highest quality. You can definitely tell that teachers are thinking about how to talk to the children to best promote their development. Jacqui and Bethany in the Waddler room have been so kind and caring to our son. They clearly know him very well and try to focus on the strengths of his personality, rather than the frustrations. Teachers always have a smiling face for breakfast and our son is always excited to see them each morning. It did not surprise me that after one week away from Whizz Kids during Christmas, he was already asking for "daycare" using his home sign. I have enjoyed returning back to work because I know that my son is well cared for. We are just so thankful for our Whizz Kids family!!"
