    Little Sponges is the most amazing place. If you want your child to be loved, nurtured, and safe, this is the place to be. They really care about every child and their well being. The owner, director, and teachers have poured their heart and soul into this place. I would recommend Little Sponges to any parent looking for a daycare or preschool for their child!

    My older one attended here for two years and graduated a couple of years ago. He has fond memories of this place, classes and teachers. He still comes along with me to pick up his brother who goes to this school currently and he still feels loved by teachers and staff here. Warm welcome and cheerful greeting.. I just love seeing that interaction. It makes us feel that we’re in the community. The younger one who started this school at two but then had to skip many months due to pandemic just started pre-k 4 this month and his academic exploration is amazing. It’s such a joy to listen to what he learned and experienced each and every day. He’s very thrilled about his school and class. In terms of facilities and administration, the quality is definitely one of the best in the area and I feel that they strive to do better and get better at things all the time so I really appreciate it.
    Mr. Roberto is the teacher that any kid would want to have. He’s gentle, inviting and encouraging. Most of all, he treats the kids with respect. I always felt that.
    Mrs. Megan! She knows what she’s doing! I ask her something then it gets done. I appreciate her task handling skills. :)
    Overall I’m happy with this school and will recommend this place to other families absolutely.

    This daycare's environment is happy, healthy, and caring. The staff members are considerate, patient and kind to the children's little minds. My grandsons love "going to school" to soak up new information. We play games (and I laugh) with the lessons they teach me on the ride home!

    More than a daycare. More than a school. More like Family!

    I’m sad as I write this review because this is my son’s last week at Little Sponges. Both he and my daughter attended this wonderful school. Now that we’ve moved and he will be attending another daycare, I realize how special Little Sponges is and how much we will miss it.

    When my daughter was born 7 years ago we looked at many daycare places. Most were chains and many were run by young people that didn’t have kids themselves. When we came to see Little Sponges I immediately liked the fact that it was family owned and run. The director has her own kids at the school, as well as the owner’s grandkids. Linda the owner gave us her cell phone number the first day and has always been available to take our call anytime we needed to speak with her.

    Safety and security were our top concern. I liked that the building had high windows in each classroom, but also there was cinder block all around the building. We saw many daycares that had all glass walls right next to the parking lot, and I was concerned that a car could jump the curb and go through the glass. Not the case at Little Sponges. There’s a double set of locked doors, one as you enter the lobby and then another to access the main daycare area. Also Little Sponges has security cameras everywhere with recording. If there’s any sort of incident its recorded and the parents can view it. There’s a fingerprint computer check in and check out. If someone else has to pick up your child you can call in advance and they have to show proper ID.

    The classrooms are all very large and very clean. There’s a large gym and a very big indoor play area. I can’t tell you how many times its been raining outside but my kids had a great time running around and playing in the indoor play area which includes multiple slides and play areas.

    Little Sponges serves breakfast, lunch, and snacks which is very convenient for the days when we’re running late and didn’t have time for breakfast at home. Also they’re open from 6:30am to 6:30pm so the extended care hours are very convenient for the days that my wife and I have to work either early or late.

    The classes all follow an age-focused curriculum. From the infants room where they are learning to crawl and walk, to the twoddlers and creative nursery classes where they are learning shapes, colors, numbers, etc. The Pre-K 3 and Pre-K 4 curriculum is outstanding. When my daughter went into public school Kindergarten, she was actually bored with the school work because she was so well prepared and so advanced from her learning at Little Sponges.

    Besides the academic curriculum, Little Sponges also has lots of amazing arts. In the classroom the children make beautiful crafts that you will actually want to hang in your home. There’s an amazing dance program as well. My daughter started dance with ballet, jazz, and hip-hop. They also do father-daughter and mother-son dances with a recital at the end of the year. I did two father-daughter group dances with my daughter, and I’m so glad I did. It was an amazing experience and I’ll never forget it as long as I live.

    There are exceptional teachers and staff members I would like to recognize as well. Roberto is an amazing teacher and an all-around great guy. Cher is also an amazing teacher and cares so much for her kids. She’s pretty much family to us now! Carmen, Marcos, and Yury are also great and we love them!

    I’m not sure what else I can say about Little Sponges. They’re not perfect but then again nobody is. My wife and I could have sent our children anywhere, and we chose Little Sponges. I have recommended Little Sponges many times and would do so again without hesitation.

    I have been working in Little Sponges for an average of four years as a Teacher. I've been giving the opportunity to move up with the same group of kids seeing how much they have learned and how far they have come truly amazes me. Little sponges offers a variety of programs including music, dance, art among many other activities. This year my kids will be graduating and I feel they are more than ready for kindergarten.
