Parent Reviews
We have had our child here since she was an infant and love it. The teachers are great and our child learns a lot while there. Its very clean and has plenty of play options for kids of all ages. Highly recommend!
LADC is an excellent early childhood program! Daily lessons, activities, and experiences are engaging and educational. The classrooms are set up with multiple learning areas (science, art, dramatic play, games, sensory table, etc.) which change frequently to expand children's knowledge and tie into the theme. The teachers and staff are caring and get to know your child as an individual. We have been an LADC family for 4 years and have two children in the program. This is the only place I will send my children!
