What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
We’ve been enrolled at CLA for almost 2 years and have had nothing except a wonderful experience. The environment is always clean, organized, and safe, which gives us great peace of mind. From the moment you walk in, the staff is welcoming, friendly, and genuinely caring. The teachers are absolutely amazing—patient, attentive, and truly dedicated to helping each child learn and grow. We couldn’t be happier with the care and education our boys receive here and highly recommend this preschool to any family seeking childcare!
Love it here! The staff and teachers are so accommodating and caring! My little one loves to drum on things and instead of being frustrated about the noise, my son's teachers give him 2 straws every morning so he can Drum on whatever he wants, it's the sweetest thing to see as a mom. He's only 18 mons but the love and intention creates the perfect family feel! You owe this to your kiddos!
Our children have been going here for over a year and we love it. The staff have been amazing at taking care of our children--very attentive and kind. The PreK teacher is PHENOMENAL and our child learned so much from them in just a short time. The chef on staff is very diligent about our children's food allergies. We have conversations regularly about what is on the menu and they do a great job catering to not only their needs but also their wants to make sure my children feel included. The administration is attentive and makes us feel welcome and heard. We are so grateful we made the switch here.
Outstanding Early Childhood Educators Who Deserve Recognition I’m incredibly grateful to have two exceptional teachers, Ms. Maddie and Ms. Christina, caring for my daughter at daycare. Every day, they pour their energy and heart into guiding her with a well-rounded, thoughtful lesson plan that sparks curiosity, joy, and growth. Their dedication to daily crafts builds not only creativity but also developmental confidence. At just 16 months old, my daughter has blossomed under their care, learning to walk with steady encouragement, feeling safe and empowered on the playground, and growing her social connections through gentle support and friendship-building. Thanks to them, she now dances, speaks, and even blows kisses with pride and delight. These beautiful milestones are direct reflections of their intentional care and professional excellence. What they provide isn’t just childcare, it’s true early education. Their nurturing leadership, ability to foster trust, and consistent positive impact deserve to be recognized. I genuinely hope their supervisors see what a gift these teachers are to both the children and the center. They are shaping lives with grace and purpose, and it’s clear they’re not just employees—they’re champions for our children’s futures.
I needed care for my child in a pinch. The staff were incredibly kind and caring. They eased my mom heart and were able to accommodate us with the days and times I needed. They toured with us and it felt very transparent with no pressure. My son is having a blast and his teacher, Mrs Kristal is the sweetest lady. I am so thankful for this place for making my son feel safe, loved all while having so much fun.
