Small World Child Care Preschool Learning Center - Champlin 10210 Lancaster Lane North, Maple Grove, MN 55369

"We absolutely LOVE Small World! Our daughter is absolutely thriving and loves going to, "school!" We are so impressed with all she is learning, the friends she is making and the attention to detail we are receiving from her teacher and the staff. Our only regret is that we didn't enroll her sooner!"

"We've been with Small World for 7 years now, so clearly we like it here! - we have a 6 year old, a 4 year old, and one on the way. We appreciate their flexibility and willingness to work with us over the years, in finding what's best for our kiddos. They make the center feel like a second home for the kids, and have consistently hired the most amazing teachers who truly care about all of the kids. I love that they do not overschedule the kids with 'extras' (extra events at the center, or excessive field trips). My littles have both thrived on their day-to-day routine & normalcy, and have learned so much during their time here. There are plenty of exciting & different themes for learning, activities, art projects, outdoor play, and fun events like pajama days throughout the year - and we have done some of the optional 'bigger' extras too, like dance and soccer coordinated through the center. During the summer for the bigger kids, they have super fun themed weeks. A number of the field trips are also smaller adventures OR exciting things to do at the center, so there are not too many additional costs to fit in. It is so helpful to know exactly what costs will be week to week, and I hear a lot of other centers/summer caps do this very differently. My oldest is choosing Small World's summer program over his kindergarten's program because of how much he enjoyed the environment last summer. I wish I could personally be with my kids every day, but if I cannot- SWLC is a wonderful place to know my kids are in good hands. We do miss a few of our favorite teachers that recently left, but the new staff members seem to be very consistent with everything we have always known & loved about Small World. If you're looking for a daycare center, I would recommend!"

"We love Small World and the staff! We started bringing our (now 3) children here 3.5 years ago after 2 failed home daycare experiences. Our oldest son just finished Kindergarten and was reading at a higher than Kindergarten level. He has been able to go back to Small World this summer and the amount of field trips and themed learning weeks is truly astounding! He is having the best summer. Our younger 2 children stay busy with music class days, water days, art projects, sensory bins and daily learning. We love to get updates and pictures of their day on the app while we are at work. The director Kacie has been at the center the whole time we have attended. She is hands on in every classroom, extremely approachable if we ever have a concern and has been so accommodating with my ever changing work schedule. Our kids are always excited to go to “school” and love their teachers and friends there. We could not have made a better decision for our family, we would definitely recommend Small World!"

"I can’t say enough as to how much our family loves Small World. When we were first touring daycares we felt most at home at Small World, they are a center but have the feel of an in home daycare. All their teachers truly care about the kids and are great at communicating with parents. We started with Small World when my son was 5 months old and wouldn’t change anything - my son is 3 now and loves daycare and his teachers. They are also very flexible and accommodating as they understand that life happens. You have the feeling of family from a center which is unique and amazing. Would recommend to anyone looking for amazing care for their children."

"Our two children have been going to SW for about four years and they love it there and we love sending them there. They have a variety of activities and create a preschool environment for the kids to help prep them for Kindergarten. They have water days in the summer time and you can tell all the teachers truly care about the kids and love what they do. Our kids love the teachers and feel safe. We love that they keep us informed on a daily app and post pictures throughout the day. They have conferences with the parents to keep us up to date on how they are progressing. We really love Small World and would recommend it to other families"
