From Our Parents

“We love ABCDino Academy so much! Our son enjoys going there, he’s obviously well cared for, and he’s learning new skills at an amazing pace. They’re easy to work with, kind, and genuinely care for the kids. He brings home cute art projects all the time and I really appreciate the app that posts photos and their activities throughout the day along with diaper changes, snacks, and naps. It feels like they’re part of our “team” for our son. ‘We’re so grateful to have found this place!” ~AM

I have been using this location for child care for over a year now. There is a great balance between learning and play. My children love going here and I have peace of mind knowing that they are well cared for by the truly amazing teachers. I am thrilled that this is now a preschool and my children can start their relationship with education in such a wonderful environment. CH (current parent using Dino since 2022)
