END OF THE RAINBOW CHILDCARE CENTER REVIEWS

As first time parents and newly back in the Columbia area, finding childcare was one of my most daunting tasks. However, with one visit to EOR my nerves were calmed. The staff is AMAZING - our daughter has been there since 3 months old and is almost 2 now, and we plan to keep her there until she starts Kindergarten. I truly believe she would not be doing as well as she is if it weren't for the teachers at EOR - they helped so much with feeding, baby sign language, and now getting into more learning activities and just generally keeping her a happy, silly, healthy toddler :) I cannot recommend this place enough - it takes a village and I'm so glad EOR is part of ours.

EOTR Daycare has been a very positive experience for our grandson! He gets excited when we pull up to the door and shouts- “Yay I get to go play with the new kids!” He has grown socially and academically in many ways. Often times when we pick him up, he resists leaving to go home. This is a great feeling for a parent to have about a daycare.

End of the Rainbow has provided an encouraging educational experience that promotes social, physical and academic development. I have two children that attend there and my preschooler has learned a lot of independent skills she brings home from school. You can tell the teachers are really invested in their students.

A GOOD START PRESCHOOL REVIEWS

We moved to Columbia last year and had a hard time finding the best childcare for our 2 year old. When we met Johnathon we instantly felt a sense of comfort. Our daughter started school here last year and it’s the best decision we have ever made for our family and daughter. She LOVES going to “school”, loves her teachers and classmates and most importantly has learned many valuable life lessons since she has started. We couldn’t be more thankful for the amazing care our daughter receives and look forward to our 10 month old to join in the infant program this summer. It’s such a blessing to our family to know our children are in the very BEST care at A Good Start Preschool.

I can't recommend this place enough! Family owned and operated, the staff is amazing at what they do. They are so loving towards the kids. They are firm yet gentle with the kids. I never felt uncomfortable dropping my kids off, I knew they would be safe. My kids love coming here every morning. They hug their teachers and talk about all the fun things they do every day. My oldest came from an in home daycare and was very behind for his age. In less than a year, they got him caught up and he was thriving when he started Kindergarten. Both my kids also started eating more variety of foods after starting here.

We LOVE A Good Start Preschool! My daughters have been attending for the past 2 years and we are so sad to be graduating and moving on. The admin and staff are nothing short of amazing. They are firm, fair, and so loving! They pour all they have into the children and it shows! Thank you Mr. Jonathan, Ms Joanne, Ms.Christy, Ms. Alicia, and EVERYONE so much for guiding and loving my girls for the last 2 years.

GREEN MEADOWS EARLY LEARNING CENTER REVIEWS

Our first daughter is at Green Meadows. The staff definitely made my transition back to work and her transition into school super easy. She smiles at the staff when we drop her off. All of the babies seem to love the teachers. We love the teachers in the infant room- Miss Allison, Miss Emma and Miss Madeline. Miss Maddie and Miss Mary are also wonderful! It’s easier being at work full time knowing our baby girl is in great and caring hands.

We very much appreciate Miss Allison and Miss Emma and their care for our infant. They are able to maintain calm and caring in infant care that helps build trust and security. The 4 to 1 ratio of Missouri is difficult and they are able to be calm and responsive, even on days when multiple kids are sick or upset. They are amazing. There are many awesome staff at Green Meadows.

Absolutely love this childcare center! The staff is caring, the facility is clean and welcoming, and the programs are engaging and enriching for the kids.
