Parents Say:
"I wanted to take a moment at the end of Aiden’s first year to thank everyone who made this a success for Aiden. With the collaboration between Danielle, Laura, Courtney and Sammie – WE MADE IT!!! Due to the patience and good heart and support from Ms. Laura I am so glad to finally say Aiden loves school, as we call “The Village”. He has grown and learned so much. Gaining confidence and building upon his social skills! Thank you very much to everyone who made this possible! Here’s to a new chapter!"
Peggy S. & Nick R., Denver, CO
"Big thank you to all of the wonderful teachers, and staff, that have cared for Georgie these past 4 years!"
Amy A., Greenwood Village, CO
"When I enrolled my son at The Village the main reason was location to our home (right around the corner). After five months of being at The Village in the Bear Cub room, location has taken a back seat to the education my son is receiving. There is a great balance of playtime (inside and outside), educational learning, arts & crafts, music, and much more. When I pull into the parking lot in the morning, my son claps his hands, all excited to be at The Village. My favorite thing about The Village – I love the artwork that is sent home, it is always on the fridge."
Amanda B., Englewood, CO
"One of the hardest decisions I ever had to make was where to send my daughter for childcare. I took the time and consideration to tour ten different facilities before I made my decision to send my daughter to The Village Child Development Center. These people, after all, would be caring for and teaching my precious little girl at least nine hours every weekday. While touring other facilities, I felt uneasy about at least one aspect of each center. I encountered depressing classrooms, questionable playground equipment, terrible playground policies, no evidence of a curriculum, and too many other minor things to list. When I finally toured The Village, I knew that I had found the only facility in the area that I would be happy with. I was impressed with the playground, curriculum, facility, and the staff. I was also pleased with the wide variety of extra classes that are offered. I go to work every day, confident that my daughter receives the best possible care, and she is learning everything that she will need for Kindergarten. The Village is a wonderful center, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision to send my daughter there."
Marisa M., Denver, CO
"Dave and I feel as though a huge part of our lives is being removed now that Masen is going to Kindergarten. Six years we’ve felt so good about where and with whom we left our children. Thank you for keeping Alex and Masen safe, happy, and so stimulated all these years. You have truly touched our family."
Kim F., Englewood, CO
"After having a nanny for our children for 2 years, my husband and I were forced into looking for other care for our children. We looked at schools before The Village and the minute we walked around The Village we knew we wanted our children to be a part of it. The reasons are; the building sits like a real home with large windows (as opposed to office buildings with tinted windows), it has a huge playground and fun windows, it has a pool so the kids could swim in the summer, and they educate the children while implementing a lot of fun and activities. We will continue to keep our children at The Village because the staff and teachers show incredible love to our children. We are amazed at what the kids are learning. They love it."
Kathleen & Brandon H., Greenwood Village, CO
"I really like the Core Knowledge method of teaching and I am extremely pleased with the progress my 4 year old has now made. She is very ready for Kindergarten, even though she will just turn 5 in August. The teachers have kept her busy learning but take the time for her to have free play as well. She loves swimming in the summer and the swimming lessons are so convenient. The parent-teacher conferences and weekly reports keep me informed as do the monthly newsletters and daily handwritten updates that are noted on the wall every day. I feel more a part of her day because I am able to speak with her about it in the evenings thanks to the great communication process. I know that she is somewhere that she likes to be and that has made my decision to be a working mother a little easier. Although I may not work full time in the future, I plan to keep her enrolled because I think that it is important for her to have the continuous learning, the structure, and the friendships."
Kaprice C., Denver, CO
"The saying goes, ‘it takes a village to raise a child’, we’d contend that it takes THE Village! Thank you for all the love, time and energy you gave Davis over the last year. We knew he was in capable and loving hands."
