I recommend Little Peoples Landing Highlands Ranch location without hesitation. Our children have both attended this center since they were 12 weeks old. Miss Kim, the infant room supervisor, does an incredible job of caring for the infants. She has been with the company for over 20 years and anyone who can take care of infants day in and day out for that many years is just remarkable in my eyes! She is so kind and patient and both of our children loved having her as their teacher. Our daughter is now in the preschool room with Miss Crystal and we cannot say enough about how much she has learned and how ready she is for Kindergarten under Miss Crystals direction. Miss Crystal makes learning fun and engaging for the children and our daughter has learned so much from her! Every week is a new fun theme filled with exciting ways to learn, from building a volcano during "pre-historic week", to "milking" a pretend cow and making their own butter during "farm week", to helping prepare food for the Thanksgiving feast during Thanksgiving week. The preschool class goes on fun field trips and we especially love the annual ski trip, as it gave our daughter the opportunity to learn to ski with her friends surrounding her. Each week they have a letter, color, shape, and number of the week and our daughter is so excited to come up with new words that go along with the letter and she shares with us what she learned at the end of each fun-filled educational day. Our toddler loves Miss Alex and Miss Ashley and he is learning and growing each day. Miss Alex and Miss Ashley are constantly coming up with fun ways to teach the toddlers new things such as shadow puppet shows during Groundhog Day week, dance parties to get the wiggles out, baby yoga to stretch their bodies, and sharing a Teddy Bear picnic together. I cannot believe how creative they are at coming up with activities for the toddlers and how well our son follows along with the activities at his young age. I would love to have half the energy these wonderful teachers have to keep up with energetic young children and to make each day fun and educational. Theresa and Keegan do an incredible job of running this center. They are always professional and kind and we know they truly care about our children. We feel so comfortable taking our children to LPL and we refer as many friends as possible to this school. Other things we love about this school are monthly Parents Night Out nights with fun themes, haircuts offered at the school, swimming lessons, soccer, weekly visits from the librarian, dance class, and I could go on and on. Thank you LPL #8 for being such a wonderful place for our children to spend their days learning and growing.

Please do not bring your children here!! My son was moved up to the 2 year old room and within weeks he became very ill and was hospitalized with RSV and 2 other viruses. I understand children will get sick when they start daycare but the room is filthy. The staff assured me the toys are cleaned every couple of hours and when the children are napping; however, just looking at the toys and bathroom you see they are covered in grime. A second reason not to bring your children here is because my son was bit 3 times in 3 months! The worst part is on two occasions I had to discover the bite marks myself without the staff informing me of the incident. I am confident the teachers were not going to tell me and/or were not aware of the bite. After the second bite my husband and I started searching for a new daycare but our son was then bit within 2 weeks. I believe children are supervised poorly and the high turnover rate makes this place an unsafe environment for our little people. Again, if you value your childrens safety please do not bring them here!

We stumbled upon LPL - Highlands Ranch 4 1/2 years ago when we needed temporary childcare for our 10 week-old son. Dropping him off the first day was terrifying, but the moment Kim took him in her arms and started gently talking to him, we realized this temporary situation might become permanent... and it did! Almost 5 years later and driving down from Conifer, our son and daughter both attend LPL in Highlands Ranch full time. They absolutely love it! They are excited when it is a "school" day and are chatterboxes the whole way home about what they did and learned that day. They are thriving from both an educational standpoint, as well as a socially. The curriculum-based approach is very well-rounded and teaches a plethora of concepts and values. We cannot say enough about the staff... exceptional! Janet and Theresa have created a wonderful environment filled with caring individuals who we trust to keep our childrens best interests in mind always.

I remember the fear and uncertainty I felt when I was pregnant with my first child, how was I ever going to find a daycare that I could trust to take care of my baby? It is such a scary decision. We were referred to LPL and I will be forever grateful to the family that led us to this amazing group of teachers. Our children are so loved and so happy at school. We have now been at LPL for over 5 years and I am constantly amazed at the love in that building. Theresa and her wonderful staff offer so many great opportunities for the kids: field trips, reading, writing, science, art, dance, outdoor play, splash days, ski trips, social skills, and preparing children to move on to Kindergarten. As a teacher myself, I am so impressed with the structure of this school and how it creates happy, well-rounded children. It is so true that it takes a village to raise your children, and I am so happy that we chose the LPL family to be ours.

My daughter has been enrolled in LPL for about 18 months and she loves it. As a mother I couldnt ask for much better either. Without spotlighting any particular member of the LPL team, each person I have had the pleasure of working with has been fantastic. From Theresa and her flexibility and understanding, to Keegan and her always positive attitude and obvious care for the kids, to Crystal and the way she treats each child like family, and the list continues. Discipline is always something that worried me before putting my child in the care of others and each time I hear about a kid being "bad" according to my daughter, I ask about it and am typically very impressed with how she explains the action taken. On top of the obvious care that she receives, she has continued on a path of learning, development, and fun. Thank you LPL for allowing me to go to work without concern for my childs well-being and development. ❤️

My children have been attending Little Peoples Landing for six years and I have never regretted the decision to send them there - in fact, I tell everyone I can about the amazing care my children receive and the quality of the staff and company as a whole. There are so many things that set them apart from other daycares - from a member of the staff greeting you every time you walk in to the incredibly fun fieldtrips and activities that the kids participate in daily. I can tell that my children are loved by the staff, many who have been around for a long time. We looked at a lot of options when we were considering daycares and none could compare. The center also provides a ton of services for your children like haircuts, swim lessons in summer, parents night out, and sports clubs like soccer and baseball. By far, this is the best place to send your kids in Highlands Ranch!!
