Discovery Childcare Inc 1327 112th Street Southeast, Everett, WA 98208

"Our kid stayed here from 10m to 1y7m. Amazing growth we witness. He received high quality education on art, music and literacy every day. His four teachers and the supervisor, and everyone involved are loving and caring. He walks in and out happy every day. It is hard to say goodbye. They have an app that communicates kid’s updates real time that brings me a smile all the time. I would highly recommend this organization."

"We have been attending Discovery for a little over a year. It is hard to find childcare these days and waitlists are LONG. My experience with Discovery Childcare has been amazing. My children spend up to (and quite often) 50 hours a week here. They are able to socialize with other children, are on a feeding/nap schedule, they learn many new things and their bottoms are changed (per the handbook req. at least every two hours if not needed sooner). The center uses an app for updates on meals, diaper changes, what they are learned for the day, pictures, and other communication. I love receiving pictures of my children playing outside, color, dancing or learning to sit up/crawl. The center has cameras, keycode entrance and a fingerprint/code system for check-in/check-out. While common for children to get sick at daycare or at any type of schooling institute, it is not the fault of the center. I often see them sanitizing, taking out the trash, cleaning, wearing masks, gloves during diaper changes, cleaning toys and doing laundry. Discovery communicates with me if my kids are starting to get sick, and their handbook guidelines are very thorough about illnesses. It is hard in every working field to find and keep staff. We did have to make a change in our attending hours since the infant room hours were reduced but it ended up working out better for us. They also accept the state subsidy. Discovery does have inexpensive cash prices compared to other facilities that I looked at. Originally they were open earlier and later compared to other centers but I believe it has been reduced to 6am-5pm (you will need to verify). Working with children, especially other people's children is incredibly hard. Changing bodily fluids all day, is incredibly hard. Entertaining children all day, lesson planning, dealing with angry children, sad children, cooking for many children, all very hard."

"We had a great experience with Discovery Childcare off 112th. My kids started in March of 2022, right when they switched management (for the better). My son was 2.5 and my daughter was 6 months old. Since this was their first time in daycare, they inevitably got sick all the time! But this is to be expected anywhere. Discovery Childcare was clean, safe and well managed. Both kids loved attending. They were pretty good about updating the app and sending photos and activity reports. The staff was friendly, and went out of their way to make sure the kids were happy and healthy. When they were sick and had to stay home, they always asked me how the kids were doing. They have lots of toys and activities, and a fun outdoor area for recess. While they would benefit from a swing set / better play area, but my son loved going to preschool and would even ask to go on the weekends! My daughter felt safe there, and the staff treated her like their own. Often times I would walk in and the lobby would smell like fresh baked cookies. From the outside it may not look like much, but these are good people, and I highly recommend."

"With the new management and staff I have seen such a turn around in the way the center is run, in a positive note. They truly care about not just the children, but the families as well. They are willing to go above and beyond to make sure that each individual child is getting the best care and education while in their center. I would highly recommend Discovery to anyone. The owners are just as warm, welcoming and kind as the rest of the staff!"

"Very welcoming atmosphere, offers activities and fun days for the families, teachers work hard to get children where they need to be developmentally. Management has worked with me numerous times when I could not afford to pay my tuition. They truly care for their students as well as the parents. I never have to worry about my child's safety while I'm away. They have cameras in every classroom and I feel comfortable at all times. They provide healthy foods, not just quick meals. My children have learned a lot since being enrolled. I can honestly say that they were behind in certain areas, and now they are truly blossoming. I give thanks to the staff for always giving their best effort."
