As a parent of two (18½ yr old and an almost 3 year old) I am delighted to report that we are very pleased with the care we receive at AIL. I experienced all types of child care with my first child (home daycare, center based care, aupairs and domestic nannies). As a single mother both then and now it is critical for me to fee1 comfortable with my childcare arrangement. That comfort level allows me to perform effectively in my work and other responsibilities.
The level of care we receive at AIL has been outstanding. We truly feel like family and I have been impressed by the management, teachers and aides.
With a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education and having worked in management of an employer based daycare center and as a consultant involved in the evaluation and design of onsite daycare centers I feel I can honestly say that I would not hesitate to recommend AIL to parents in search of a daycare environment for their child(ren).
The educational component provided offers a curriculum which enhances learning and I find that my child is certainly more well rounded and versed in subjects (including Spanish) than his peers outside the center. The opportunity to practice fine and gross motor skills while learning everyday life skills has made an impression on everyone who sees my child "in action".
Although I now have the luxury of being a stay at home mom I have still chosen to retain full time enrollment for my child at AIL because we do see the results of additional growth and accomplishment and he truly enjoys it.
I will also comment on your snack and meal program. It has made a favorable impression on me. I can say that from a comparison standpoint there is a vast difference in the quality and quantity of food served.
If I can answer questions for a potential AIL client on a more personal level, feel free to give them my name and number.
We definitely made the right choice in bringing our children to Adventures
in Learning. The Director and Assistant Director are friendly, understanding and always keep us informed. The teachers are wonderful-loving, fun and professional. Our kids are so crazy about them that even Grandma, Grandpa, Aunts and Uncles know all about the AIL teachers! Adventures in Learning is a very important and very positive part of our lives. My husband and I are so thankful to have found a place where we know our kids are safe, loved, learning and having fun each day that we have to head to work.
I always feel that my twins are given lots of love and are in excellent hands at Adventures in Learning (AIL). The teachers truly love what they do and take a personal interest in each and every one of the kids. The teachers in the infant room helped me, as a new mom, through the many developmental stages / transitions while always being sensitive to the special needs of my premature babies. The toddler room teachers were great with the transition to the "'big kids" class. They helped the twins develop their "artistic talents" and learn their colors, ABC's and so much more at such a young age. AIL teachers and staffs are the BEST!!
