"General experience has been great. They get a ton of creative things to do here throughout the year. I feel safe with my kids there with all of there safety protocols in place"

"I am very happy with the care my son gets while there. He only comes two times a week but in those two days he seems to come home with a new skills (abc, number recognition, weather, etc) I also am happy with the socializing and that they are preparing him for when he attends school. My one complaint is that I notice his current teachers say he ate all of his food before they even have the kiddos sit down since I have seen it on camera a lot. Then I notice he didn’t eat everything. I would prefer they be honest if he didn’t eat because I can give him more food ik the evening."

"We have had very different experiences so far with our 2 children. The oldest has had a lot of teacher turnover and has struggled with these changes and having lots of unstructured downtime. He does not seem to be offered as much engagement whereas our younger child seems to be offered better activities and more engagement during the day and seems to be thriving on having those opportunities. We have consistently struggled with teacher communication. The only communication we receive is standards updates in the app (food, toileting, activities) and messages that are incredibly negative. They do not share any positive or fun things he did when we pick him up or through the app."

"Childtime of Albany is a good school. It is pricy in my opinion and for the money, I would expect the lead teachers to at least have a college degree although NYS allows a HS Diploma person with a few credit courses or certification to become lead teachers.Breakfast and Afternoon snacks could be more nutritious (more fruits and veggies based and less empty carbohydrates)."

"Overall experience has been great. The staff does a great job of communicating about our kids days and their developments. And they’re so sweet to them - always paying attention to their needs and making sure they’re comfortable. Our kids love their teachers, it’s a joy to see them light up when they walk into the classroom."

"Our daughter loves Childtime and we love that she’s happy! She’s excited to go every morning and talks about her friends and teachers when she gets home. All staff is very communicative via the app and in person; you’re never left wondering what’s happening in class."

"I have been continually pleased and surprised by the amazing care, support, and learning opportunities my child is receiving."

"We’re very pleased with the quality of care our son receives. He had a rough time with separation anxiety at first, but his teachers were quick to reassure him and get him involved in the classroom. He clearly enjoys his time in class and loves seeing his teachers and friends during the day."

"Have been impressed with our child’s development. He seems to learn something new each day, became more socially engaged with other kids, his vocabulary has been expanding constantly, and he is learning discipline and to listen. We are very happy with his progress at school."

"I love Childtime! Our daughters teacher Miss Allison is excellent and is always updating us on how her day is going. We love getting pictures of her during the day. The communication with teachers about my daughter throughout the day is so reassuring. We could not be happier with this daycare!"

"Excellent!!!. Can't say enough great things about our school."

"Great staff. Confident my child is well cared for and offered age appropriate learning opportunities."

"So far we’ve loved having our child at Childtime. She is so happy when we tell her she’s going to “school” each day and looks like she’s having a great time in the photos we receive. I also appreciate knowing about meals, diapers, and naps as they are happening. Staff is also very communicative whenever there is a question."

"Very good! Staff is very friendly and my daughter seems to have alot of fun"

"My son started day care during the pandemic. I have always felt that staff was taking this virus seriously and I felt safe dropping him off everyday. They are great with communication when I send messages through brightwheel. I really love how many activities they do with the babies throughout the day. Even though my son can’t speak yet I can tel he loves going there. He always has a smile on when I drop him off. I love getting the pictures and videos of him. It helps me know he is safe."
