"We’ve had a great experience so far, for the most part! I do think my child spends too much time collectively in a bouncer.... that’s a concern I have brought up but I have no idea how much time total she’s in a bouncer so I can’t necessarily push this concern..."

"I’ve had a wonderful experience at ChildTime. A majority of the staff there are exceedingly friendly and warm."

"Overall the school is good. We wish we had better communication and that kids who are ill would not be allowed to be dropped off."

"Was a great facility about 6 years ago now I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Cannot keep staff members. Seems like they hire just about anyone now. Not worth any parents hard working money."

"Our infant A classroom welcomed more conversation than the infant B classroom. No one explained the differences with food options until I asked. They were super helpful once I asked, but I would have appreciated an overview of the classroom changes."

"Our overall experience has been frustrating. We had several issues in regards to our child's milk/bottles, lack of helping nap train, too many kids to teach ratio to what could be handled, large turn over in staff, lack of communication with the day-side teacher so at end of day no questions can be answered. So many illnesses - not sure if this is due to lack of cleaning or allowing children to stay when they shouldn't. Not following through when we ask the teachers to something when we asked and it ended up effecting our child."

"Make changing tables more private.cubbies turned to lockers, increase storage space with cupboards above cubbies, update toddler furniture, on check in have time that can be selected for last diaper and meal on that links to bright wheel app for teachers, I need pics of my kiddo at least 3 times a week. I know teachers are busy, but parents charrish those moments they can't be there. Let parents help! Yes, not all can but we want to be involved to support you!"

"Our daughter loves her school, and we love the warm and welcoming staff. We recommend ChildTime of Des Moines!"

"All my interactions so far have shown me how individually they know and care about my child! The director and assistant director never fail to greet me and always have an open door to questions!"

"Need more space in rooms when at capacity. Could expand toddler room into main hall near kitchen. Also when asked about weather policies, no staff member knew. At times when asked questions, even director doesn't know. Why???"

"We've had a wonderful experience at Childtime. The teachers are very caring and go above and beyond. My daughter is thoroughly enjoying being in Ms. Robin's classroom."

"I have been much happier with the school since the turn-over has slowed down. There is more structure and permanence with my child’s teachers. I was unhappy due to my child having different sets of teachers almost daily."

"Love our room and teachers! Our child is welcomed and the atmosphere is wonderful! I wish the toys were a bit cleaner. Overall experience, we are happy and feel comfortable with our child attending."

"We have had a very positive experience. The transition from in-home daycare to the center was a definite change for our daughter. The teachers and staff there made Her feel welcome and she now loves it. She has learned so much in her short time."

"Our little one seems to have a good time at school, and her teachers already know her little quirks and where she is developmentally. It makes me feel better about her well-being to know that she's with people who care about her. Even though they have a room full of infants--sometimes screaming infants--to care for, they always have something nice to say about each individual child that day. I'm sure those little ones tax their patience sometimes, but our daughters teachers do a great job anyway."
