This school is top notch! We looked at many schools in the area, but HRLC had everything we were looking for and them some. There should be more stars to give. As many parents do, we did our homework and asked around. We discovered that many of our neighbors children graduated from HRLC and they said that their childrens elementary school teachers were so impressed with their childrens education and social skills when coming into 1st grade. This is exactly what I wanted to hear. In May 2013 we enrolled our infant and 3-year-old. It was a hard day for me, because I had been a stay at home mom up until this point. The staff made it so much easier for me. I am happy to say that Ive had nothing but amazing experiences! The staff is knowledgeable, warm and fuzzy for the kiddos, the facility is clean and safe, and the rates are very competitive. We also love the convenience of the onsite pool, and we took advantage of the swimming lessons and a variety of "additional" classes offered throughout the year. Our 6-year old son has now graduated from their private kindergarten and has moved onto 1st grade. He is way ahead of many of his classmates and his social skills are also noticed by his teacher. There is one more wonderful thing worth mentioning, there is not a lot of staff turnover, which says a lot about the staff. As our daughter continues her education, she loves to go to school, and I believe it is because we see many familiar faces which is very comforting for my daughter and for myself. I encourage parents to definitely trust HRLC with your sweet kiddos.

What a GREAT school!!! Im an elementary school teacher and I am more than impressed!! My kids are actually learning something at this school! They have a curriculum program that is incredible. The school has up to date technologies (iPads + whiteboards) which will make my childrens transition into elementary schools so much easier. We were referred by a neighbor and could not be happier! Our neighbors children grew up there, graduated, and are excelling in their elementary schools. Any bad reviews are a SHOCK to me!!! 5-STARS all the way!!!! I only wish my kids would have started their school experience here. Our other school experience didnt even compare! Glad we moved here and that this school is so close!!! Looking forward to swimming lessons this summer!!!

If you are a "love and logic" family, this is not the place for your kiddos. I had two kids at this daycare, and couldnt get them out fast enough. The teachers in the two-year old room are flat-out mean to the kids - no patience for them at all. Our LO loved the previous daycare, and loves the new daycare, and would cry every morning when being dropped off at HRLC. The teachers in the infant room do not listen to the direction or concerns of the parents without argument. I had to be rather firm in order to have the providers respect our LOs development plan. Overall, we found that the staff and teachers were extremely condescending, and there was not one day that I didnt worry about the well-being of my children. Plenty of other providers in the area. Find someplace else.

Our experience at HRLC was wonderful. My daughter went there from 15 months to 3 years of age. We loved all of her teachers who met her with a warm hug every morning. She thrived during the time we were at this school. Everyday I was amazed by what she learned and the information shes retained. Ive referred several friends and they also love the school. It feels like an extension of your family. We became friends with the staff and other parents. The only reason we left is because we moved and if we could go back, we would. The only reason I did not give HRLC 5 stars is the antiquated payment system, they do not accept credit or debit cards.

The staff at Highlands Ranch Learning Center are fabulous! I have been to many daycare centers in my day, and this is by far the best center you could ask for! The curriculum, extra curricular activities and all of the fun activies they do day to day is awesome! I have even had lunch with them, and was pleased with the nutritious home cooked meals they served. My children have met new friends, and have so much fun that they enjoy going to "school" every day. I would highly recommend to anyone who wants their children to go to a top notch daycare (school).

All about the money, not the kids. The tenured teachers make the difference and unfortunately they dont pay their teachers what their worth, so in turn the tenured teacher that are great are now leaving. There are 18-20 year old kids looking after the children. If you voice any concerns or frustrations it is met with a indifferent attitude because they know they will fill their enrollment by location alone. Greed is the name of the game, not caring for children.
