      Sending my 2 year old son to Growing Little Minds was the best decision I ever made. Selina and her staff are wonderful. I felt very comfortable leaving my son there every morning. The curriculum, attention, love and food they provide is excellent. The transition from day care to Pre-K was super easy and I thank Growing Little Minds for that. My son still asks to visit Mrs. Selina. I would definitely recommend this place to parents looking for an educational, loving and caring day care.

      My son has been attending Growing little minds since he was 1 year old. I am a first time parent and I wanted to put my son in the best care possible. The staff are so attentive to the kids and are very open with the parents. My child has learn so much and is always so eager to learn more. He is also very social with all the kids and he loves to make new friends. I love this for him because he is a only child at home. I was recommended growing little minds by a close friend and I 10000% recommend!

      If you are looking for a place for your kids to have a great time and enrich their minds this is the place to go. Our first born around late 2013 - 2015 attended the day care on the first few years it was open, and Selina, Nicole and the rest of the staff were amazing, we were blessed with a second child 8 years after and we decided go with the same daycare for her. And it was just as good as well, from amazing and well prepared classes, courses to amazing and caring staff, it's just a great place for them to get ready for Pre-K. Both our son and daughter were very attached to Ms Nicole because of how loving and caring she is. Overall GLM is a place were kids will be safe, learning, making friends, and getting ready for Pre-K in a very well managed environment.

      Growing Little Minds was my son's home away from home from when he was only 3 months old. As a single working mom, the amount of stress that builds with trying to find a safe environment for your child is unimaginable. Thankfully Selina and her staff put my mind at ease with the great care they provide the children. From home cooked meals, to a monthly calendar with the curriculum sent home, not to mention updates throughout the day on the app they use, Selina ensures that your child is well taken care of. There is of course play time, but my favorite is the learning aspect. This is not your typical daycare, your child will not sit unattended to just expected to play and nap all day, GLM's follows a schedule which you are informed of, so you know what your child is doing at different times of the day. I am not the easiest parent to deal with, I am always worried about my son's well being and having such a bond with my son, it was hard for me to think of even going back to work. I am beyond grateful for GLM and can not recommend them more to anyone looking to have their child enrolled in daycare. A special thank you to Nicole, whose positivity every morning made drop off amazing. She is definitely an asset to GLM's and so easily loved and respected by the children. Thank you Selina and staff for the amazing 4 years and your contribution to my son's academic growth and well being!

      Selina and her team were a life saver! My daughter started in GLM when she was 2 years old and I thought it was the perfect time. As a first-time mom it was very hard to pick a daycare for my daughter where I know she would be happy and i would be in a peace of mind. From the first moment i met Selina i knew GLM was the place for my daughter. One of the things I most loved was that they send pictures throughout the day, and they let you know what they have eaten. I found it very comforting knowing about my daughter all day. Everything from their food, curriculum, activities, and communication was amazing. my daughter learned how to communicate, talk and be more social. To top it off, they potty trained my daughter!!! In one week, she was potty trained. she loved going to "school". As a first-time mom, I know it's so hard to find a safe place for our kids. Selina and her staff make you feel at home. I can recommend GLM with closed eyes!!

      Grateful to have found GLM. The best decision I made for my two year old. In only one week of attending I noticed a dramatic improvement in his vocabulary and speech . The teachers are so warm and loving transitioning the baby into daycare was a breeze. The curriculum is AMAZING. Parent and teacher communication is also excellent. GLM has set the bar really high for when it comes time to choose a pre-k. Forever grateful for Ms. Selina, Ms.Nicole, and tias.

      Love this place!!! My son started going here when he was one and we couldn't have been happier. He was one of the younger kids and everyone welcomed him with open arms. They were very accommodating and the owner, Selina, is very involved and communicated very well with me through text/call or through a notebook that was kept in my son's backpack. He attended the daycare for almost 3 years until he entered pre-K but I do not hesitate to keep in contact with the owner when I need extra care on days that public school is off. My son learned so much and we had such a great experience here. He loves school and I owe it all to Growing Little Minds for providing such a positive learning experience for him at such an early age. Thank you, again!!

      My son, who is only 21 months, has been attending Growing Little Minds daycare for about 1 month now. The amount of things he's learned in that short amount of time is incredible. Not only is the teaching and curriculum great, the staff are warm hearted and very welcoming. All of the children love them and love attending school.

      I have two boys that went to Growing Little Minds, one for full daycare and the other for after school. Their daycare curriculum is excellent, and the after school is the most helpful I've come across to date. They care for all the children as if they were their own. And all of the kids, even after school always have something fun, engaging, and educational to do.
