Reviews of Children's Garden
"Our two children attend Children's Garden and we have been very happy there. It is clear they are loved, respected and well cared for by the staff. Each classroom ensures education and has extra curriculars on top of classroom learning including music instruction, art,and physical education. The staff are passionate about education and there is high family/parent involvement. There is an all day Pre-K program as well!"
"The day before school starts they informed me they wouldn't be able to transport. Also the year before on her very last day of they forgot to pick her up. I was the one that received a phone call from her school to go pick her up and then I had to drop her off there. Don't get me wrong they're nice just don't run a very good business practice"
"Staff are friendly with some static and some temp employees. It is the only parent-coop daycare still in existence in Iowa. Other than a few issues we had with our child they were a good group to work with."
"Our son has been going to Children's Garden for over a year and he gets excited to go each day. The staff is wonderful, especially Miss Barb in the 1 year room. They genuinely care about your children and have an amazing app that you download on your phone and you can see updates and photos of your child throughout the day. Children get to do arts and craft, music, yoga etc as young as 1 year old which is great for developmental skills! I recommend this place to family and friends."
"Great Staff ! Children's Garden is a great center with plenty of space and has a full court gymnasium for the children to play in during the winter months. The hours meet our needs being a dual income family. (6:30am - 6pm) The location is easily accessible off of 235 from multiple exits."
