Each day, happiness is learning.
Message from East Cedar Rapids KinderCare
Why settle for daycare when you can have KinderCare quality? Chances are, childcare is one of the biggest expenses your family faces. Your child deserves a true educational advantage from that investment. At KinderCare Learning Centers, we've been delivering that advantage for more than two generations. What makes us different?

Just read the 1 star posting, and to a degree I, too, agree. But, hear me out...when we first started to research daycare facilities and found Discovery Time, we felt the initial encounter less than perfect - the center director seemed to be spread a little thin and as a result the back-and-forth was a little frustrating. We eventually got all the information we needed and made the HUGE decision to trust this center to care for our first born. Five years and a total of 3 kids later, we could not be happier with the process and the caring people at Discovery Time.
My daughter (first born) just started kindergarten this Sep and to our relief and great satisfaction, she was exceptionally well prepared by Discovery Time to integrate socially and academically.
Also, the center is accredited by NAEYAC, the National Association of the Education of Young Children (this voluntary accreditation was a must for us)
My wife and I recommend the daycare/preschool without reservation!

A Preschool or the DMV?
by Alhambra
The rates are reasonable, & the hours are relatively flexible given it is open earlier than most of the other preschools I've researched. However, the follow-up at this school is deplorable. I'd submitted a request for someone to contact me via its website & received a generic, automated response promising the Director will be in contact within a few days. It didn't happen. After 2 weeks I contacted the school myself & scheduled a visit. The teacher-student ration was 1:10. The director appeared standoffish & apathetic. I submitted an application to be placed on the waiting list after I was told there'd be 3 openings by early Sept. when some of the current students begin kindergarten. When by mid Sept. I didn't receive any communication from the school, I called & was informed the Director was out that day & will return my call the next day. Again, that didn't happen. If the Director couldn't return a simple phone call out of professional courtesy, or in the very least instruct someone else to contact me with a response, I question how well the school was operated. It reminded me of the DMV: take a number & pray someone calls it soon. I've moved on in my search out of necessity.
Pros: Good hours
