3 Best Preschools in Spokane, WA

Harvard Park will always hold a very special place in my heart. My son attended for 3 years and it became a second home to our family. The staff was always kind, nurturing and well trained at dealing with children. We had a poor experience at another day care which shook me and made me worried that my child was “bad” and Harvard Park squashed those worries and built both me and my child back up. They have their own way of dealing with problems and they actually helped me at times be a better parent. At first I was hesitant about their open room feel…but soon, you will see the beauty in it too. Everyone gets to know everyone and it turns into a big family. The meals were made with love and I credit Harvard Park with introducing new foods to my son and creating a very healthy non picky eater. I love their outdoor space & bike track!! They do an amazing job in the summer and yes a few days ago we drove by and my son (who is now in elementary school) squealed with delight when he saw all the bikes in the parking lot and knew it must be “bike day” at summer camp!!! Yes, its expensive but every single penny we spent at Harvard Park was money we felt was so well worth it. We never worried about our son while he was there. Never wondered if he was being treated right. Never!!! That peace of mind is worth everything And did I mention the sweet waving window.

My son has come to LOVE Harvard Park. When he first started as a nearly 3 year old, he had never been in child care before. We had moved from Ottawa, Ontario back to Spokane (where our son had never lived) all of the staff at Harvard Park cared for him and helped him through a tough few months navigating change. Earlier this week he was upset with me because he wasn't ready to leave. His game with Suzi, one of the owners of Harvard Park, wasn't finished and he wanted to stay and play longer. The entire staff is so supportive and take care of all the students in the center, not just the students in their class.

Harvard Park has been a great school for my family. My son was there for two years starting on 2018 and my daughter just finished her second year this spring. All the teachers they had or worked with were amazing. Barb, Suzi, and Leanne do a great job running the school. My son says it was fun and the teachers were really nice. My daughter says art was fun and learning about all the animals was her favorite.

We are a military family and we’ve experienced several daycares around the country. This one has been our favorite by far. Every employee knows and loves our kids and makes them feel at home. They understand what it’s like for working parents and are always there to make our lives easier. Teresa and Jess are amazing directors and make the experience so welcoming and laid back. I didn’t know how everything was going to work with virtual learning for my school aged child during the pandemic but the teachers handled everything. They worked through assignments with her, made a schedule, kept her on track and made sure she attended all of her virtual meetings. They are so loving towards my youngest too. He gets all the cuddles and just loves singing and playing with his teachers. They have an app where they send daily pictures, videos, and updates. It makes communicating so easy and we love seeing what the kiddos are doing when we can’t be with them. I’m so glad we found this daycare!.

We found kindercare after my daughter had been through a serious of severe health issues. When we started at kindercare my daughter was ridden with anxiety, post surgery and was very behind when it came to academic milestones for children. Kindercare has helped grow my child astronomically. In less than two years my daughter is now reading, writing, recognizing shapes and colors and more! She no longer struggles with anxiety and is more out going than she ever was before. The staff knows every child by name and personality, and is dedicated to the health and well being of each child they serve. When it comes time for my daughter to enter in to grade school, we will truly miss the people at the center!.

Love the ladies here at kindercare on Mullen. Couldnt have been blessed with a better team to take care of my daughter. They have taught, loved, and treated my daughter with the biggest hearts I've ever seen. They keep the parents minds at ease and share all the memories that were made when they are there.
