Top Rated 15 Schools in Waterloo, IL - A Guide for Parents and Students

Andrea Robertson We’ve had great success with both of our boys at Children’s First! The teachers are wonderful!

Jackson 27 Started my kids here in 2013 and have many fond memories. Didn’t start here for the first five years with any aid. Paid sometimes $10,000 a year and sent my daughters year round. Referred my co-workers to buy puppies from owner as well, made her a lot of money only to be unfriended because I “liked” a Facebook post. Talk about biting the hand that feeds you.

Kelsey Thompson We have been using Childrens First for YEARS!! Our children have thrived and had great experiences with their teachers! They are all encouraging and extremely helpful. They will care for your kids as if they were their own! Your kids are in great care when they are with Children First!

Pamela B We love Children First! The staff is friendly and teachers are knowledgeable and care genuinely for our kids. My children participate in many hands-on activities throughout the day; they do not just sit and watch TV or movies as Ive witnessed in other centers (in fact, that is only used as a special, once-in-a-while treat or reward). I receive many posts/pictures daily of what my kids are learning and Ive seen them apply what theyve learned at home. The center is always clean and I regularly witness the teachers sweeping, mopping, and wiping down tables. Highly recommend!

Rachel LeGrand Weve been taking our daughter here for a year and a half. Directors and teachers are so kind and caring. We trust them with our daughter completely.

Emily Richeson We love Children First Learning Center in Lakeview! Staff are friendly and super helpful. Our child has learned a lot of good habits and has made many friends. Environment is clean and promotes learning. We get regular updates and pictures to help feel less disconnected from our child while we are away all day at work and it is wonderful. They have outdoor play as weather permits, and they even have water play days during the summer. Overall, I truly believe we picked the best place around; and we toured many before choosing. The waiting list is there for a reason; but well worth the wait.

Jeannine Myer Terrific place. Talk to Waterloo extension office.

Lauren Hall Great place to check out nature!
