Wonderful school! This is basically my sons first experience with daycare and we are very pleased! Upon touring the facility, I noticed right away that the center is clean, friendly and organized and got that "gut feeling" that this was a good place for my child. We enrolled him at Childtime on references from a couple mommy friends at 18 mos of age in Ms. Sues room. He is now just over 2 years old and recently moved into Ms. Terris classroom. My son has done quite well at the center so far and is learning socialization skills, independence (for example, hand washing, throwing away his cup, plate and utensils plus pushing in his chair at the table after eating), alphabet, kids songs, colors, counting, etc. The teachers are amazing and genuinely care for the well-being of all of the kids in the classroom. The center is smaller and allows for such a warm atmosphere where the teachers are always ready for hugs if/when the child(ren) need it and the kids really get along with one another and hug each other hello and goodbye. I was so impressed that even the Director, Ms. Dayna, knew both my sons name AND my name on our first day at the center. We also love the reasonable tuition rates, that meals and snacks are provided and that there is an open door policy with the Director and/or teachers for questions, etc. Although we have never had an issue or concern to date. I feel that the teaching style at Childtime is very similar to our parenting style making it an easy and consistent transition for my son. I truly feel that my son is in a safe, clean, happy and learning environment which is a huge peace of mind for this Mommy.

My daughter has been attending this particular Childtime since she was less than one year old. She is currently 5 years old and only attending part time while she is in kindergarten. This center has been excellent to us and my daughter throughout her attendance. In the recent years, since the new director Dana came aboard, the center has taken large strides in furthering the childrens school based education which has been a huge plus in my eyes. Before she began her elementary school education she was enrolled in a program that gave the children a full classroom based environment for a couple hours a day periodically throughout the week. Thanks to this my daughter went into kindergarten well prepared, confident in a classroom environment, and ready to continue her education. The after school pick up is also a great option that works perfectly with my work schedule and lets me trust that my child is in good hands. The staff is incredibly caring and my daughter is passionate about each and every staff member. She looks forward to seeing them every time she goes and has nothing but great things to say when she talks about her day at Childtime. Now that she is older she also gets to participate in the field trips ( zoo, movies, etc. ) that occur when schools are on a long break. I will be disappointed when she no longer attends Childtime because of the great relationships that her and I have both built. Enrolling her there has been positive influence in her development and I would recommend checking it out to anyone who is looking for a daycare.

My two kids have been going to child time Chandler since July so far its OK ***************#***#**BUT if u r child is not really used to a day care I dont think this is the right place. They dont really make an effort to calm a baby or a child down when they r emotional or crying. Kids at this age needs to feel love and welcome and I see them very cold sometimes. The director Dana called me one time while was at my work to come pick up my 3 year old girl coz they couldnt calm her down saying that she was so emotional!! after she vomited and changed her when I entered the class room my girl is just left crying like crazy and the director Dana was just looking at some paper work or the iPad this didnt make any sense to me coz i know very well my girl if she feels some love she will calm down not only her but i see couple of kids crying like crazy in the morning and they r just left basically until they shut up alone i feel so bad for them this is an issue for me coz thats not the way i need my kids to be treated of caurse nothing can replace mothers love but still the way they r cold with little kids is very wiered to me!! Other than that honestly director Dana and Carissa are nice though. Mrs dominique is great she really knows how to deal with the 3 year old age. The 5 year old class is a bit crazy but the new teacher Mrs Christine so far so good.

I had looked at childtime shortly after my son was born this past July when I was trying to decide if he would go to daycare or if I would hire a nanny when I went back to work in September. Initially I decided to go with a nanny and due to unfortunate circumstances had to let her go and look at daycare again. When I initially contacted childtime again in late September they told me there would be no openings until January. I had to let my nanny go in late October and was in a panic to find a daycare. Thats when I got an e-mail from childtime checking in with me. I immediately emailed back and told them my situation and they came back and said we actually have an opening now. I immediately enrolled him. He started November 1, 2016. I absolutely love the staff and so does my now 5 month old son. I have never once picked him up and not seen the staff interacting with the infants in the room. They are always so happy and courteous. I would recommend childtime for anyone looking to put their child in a daycare/learning facility!

I strongly recommend this place. The staff is friendly, caring and work very well with children. Dana, who runs the facility is very helpful and knows the industry. She helped with our transition to day care in a big way. Our little guy was in the infant room from 6 weeks on. We were nervous about sending him there at such a young age but our worries quickly subsided. The staff was very good about communicating to us any issues that they came across and even gave us a courtesy call to inform us everything was going smoothly during the first few days. We have recently moved and the worst part was having to take our son out of Child Time. Lastly, we felt the price point was very good and i love that they include diapers. I also think they include meals, not 100% on that bc our guy was still on breast milk. In any case its a place we felt very comfortable with and would encourage anyone else to use this child care as well.

My grandson who is 16 months old attends this center and he loves it. The Center is clean and the rooms are well equipped with toys and educational materials. The director, assistant director and all of the teachers are wonderful, caring, knowledgeable and very attentive to the children. Part of a childs growth is learning how to be independent and learning how to soothe themselves. My grandson has learned so much and has grown so much since being at the Center. I highly recommend this center to any parent.
