My son and I have been a part of the COA family since he was a baby (he is now almost 7). The team has been a second family to my kiddo and have been nothing short of amazing to us. Although we are leaving for the school year, we fully intend to be back for Summer Camp.The team along with their center director, Megan, have always treated us with such care and grace over the years. The facility is always clean and well put together. The curriculum is outstanding and I always feel like my kiddo is learning and growing while in the care of his teachers. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone in need of center care :)

We had the WORST experience with this daycare. I’ll give you a few examples why. For background, my son started at 8-months old and has severe food allergies (milk, soy, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts).1) In the infant room, they only use 2 high chairs at a time. So when other kids were eating (which was most of the day as they fed 3 times and rotated 8 children), they would put my son in an exersauser. He would be in there for HOURS at a time, no exaggeration. One day, I totaled it and it was a total of 5 hours. He was only there for 8 hours that day. When I called to express my concern, I was told this was the only option because of his allergies... this is not healthy for any kid.2) Even with all the excersauser time, there was still an incident where he ate another kid’s cornbread (food allergies)... they failed to write an incident report for this.3) They advertise that they do sign language and take the kids outside daily. They did not do any of this when my son attended for 2 months. He didn’t go outside once.4) The classrooms were shutdown 4 different times because of covid exposure while he was there for a 2 month period. My son has been at a new daycare for 2 months now and has yet to have a shutdown.5) Because of covid, you have to hand your kid to one of the front desk ladies for them to bring them to the classrooms. You get almost no interaction from the teachers. I feel like this system is more of a covid risk to our kids as those front desk workers are exposed to the entire daycare instead of just a classroom.6) This was by far the most expensive daycare. $300/week for 5 days of care for kids under age 2. Our new daycare is $235/week for your comparison.If you have the option of choosing a different daycare, DO IT!

COA has been so flexible with my childcare needs during the Covid-19 pandemic. As a nurse, they have made it possible for me to pick up extra shifts to help the hospital (i.e. patients). These times have been tough and crazy but COA has been an absolute blessing. The center director, Megan, responds very quickly to emails and is always so nice/understanding. Plus, my kid always has fun there!

Children of America in Appleton is a wonderful place to work. Both the directors and staff are so very welcoming and are super supportive in everything we do. The atmosphere here is amazing — so full of positive energy. I wouldn’t want to work anywhere else!

My boys have both attended here since 12 weeks old. The teachers are awesome and put their hearts into caring for the little ones.The management works closely with each family and work hard to make sure family requests are met. My boys loved attending here and growing into each classroom. They just held Thanksgiving feast and it was very nicely done!

This center is a great place to work. It is very welcoming and the staff is amazing. The teachers are always super engaged with the kids, especially in the PreK A room. I see Angela and Brenda doing fun activities all the time and the kids look like theyre having a blast.

This team has done everything they can during tough times to make accommodations for our family! Super amazing team and great management!

We absolutely love it here! All of the teachers are warm and welcoming. I know my daughter is taken care of. Management works really hard to make sure all of our needs are met. So thankful to have found this place!

Our grandson attends Children of America Appleton on a part time basis. The center director and staff are amazing. We have felt comfortable and welcome since the first day. They are always available to answer any questions we have. We are so very pleased with the care given to our grandson while he is at Children of America. The teachers give all the students individual attention. It’s nice to know that I can log in and view his classroom at anytime of the day via live camera feed. The staff uploads and sends us photos throughout the day via Tadpole. If our grandson can’t be with us during the day, Children of America Appleton is the next best option.

Considering the times, everyone is working really hard to provide a quality program. Everyone is friendly, patient and informative.

There is no better feeling then dropping your child off at a place where you know he is taken care of and truly cared for. The staff at Children of America are caring and loving towards my son and I couldnt have made a better decision on bringing him here!!

The two ladies in charge don’t miss a beat. In fact they seem to go out of their way and above and beyond to make sure their kids and families are well taken care of and a quick at responding with concerns and questions.Keep up the great work ladies and don’t forget to take care of yourselves like you do us families!!!

I just started working at COA and I am so impressed by everything they do. Coming from a background in education this center goes above and beyond every day! Liz and Megan truly treat every employee and child like family. Every staff member works hard to make sure all children learn and thrive on a daily basis. If I had children they would be my first choice in childcare!

This school offers so much more than childcare. The daily routine and curriculum are perfect from Infant to preschool to school age. So much learning! Security features are second to none. Best value for the money after comparing other programs in the area!

In the short time our daughter has been here there is a noticeable difference in the way she speaks and learns! It is so comforting to walk into daycare knowing she will be well cared for, and safe. Every single employee I have encountered here is warm and welcoming and reinforces our decision to take her to COA.

My daughter Penelope is in the Infant A classroom with Ms. Amber. She also gets to spend time with Ms. Trisha, Ms. Sara and Ms. Dena. They all take such good care of her and provide her with SO many amazing opportunities to grow and learn. They do tummy time, listen to my concerns and let me check in on her a million times a day without making me feel like an over protective first time mom! I am very thankful for this team and would highly recommend to anyone looking for infant care.

The caregivers here never stop bending over backwards to help the parents. The director is very professional. They really care about the safety of our children in this community. Thank you COA Appleton!

Been an employee here for about 2 years! Love the managers and the coworkers! The managers are amazing, understanding, and accommodating! Couldn’t ask for a better place to work!

Wow....this school is absolutely amazing..the staff there is phenomenal and the director and assistant director is just incredible...the school has a nice vibe and smells so beautiful when you walk in. Theres always a smile from the front to the back of the building...glad my children attend there...

Absolutely love my experience here! Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Such a great experience!

My granddaughter goes here and she is learning so much! She is always coming home with art and is clearly learning.

Extremely professional staff especially the ladies in the front office. The center director and assistant director do everything possible to accommodate every need. These ladies deserve great praise. Thank you for all you do!

I love having my child here! The teachers are great and she loves all the fun activities they do throughout the day. She has been at the center for over a year and it has been a wonderful experience. It is nice to know she is in good hands!

We have three children enrolled at Children of America. We find the center most often to be very organized with qualified teachers. They provide monthly newsletters, offer open houses, conferences twice each year, holiday programs and daily reports for each child through a web application. We receive pictures of the kids throughout the day and the center offers video imaging of each classroom. They also offer a great summer camp program for older children.Its never easy to leave your kids behind, but we know they are in good hands at COA.

Cant say enough about this school! Everyone is so nice and welcoming and the center always looks amazing! Its hard to find the perfect childcare but they are it!

My toddler loves going to coa! The class is welcoming and clean and the teachers keep them involved in lots of activities throughout the day. She has attended for over a year now and it has been a great experience!

The teachers at COA love kids! Every time I drop my kids off, I know they are in good hands. The curriculum is enriching and grows my children academically and as individuals. We loved the camera system (Always Close By) and used it when we brought our first baby in for the first time. It was comforting to be able to see him during our work day and know that he was being loved while we were away.Now that the kids are older, we also love that the summer activities let the kids have fun and burn off energy. Friday is water day and the kids have a blast-I just wish I could play hooky from work and join them!

This daycare is unparalleled by any other in the community. The rooms are large and clean, and the staff is amazing! Both of my kids have gone here, and I wouldnt choose any other daycare.

Love the quality of care my grand daughter receives!

Couldnt ask for a better place to work! Amazing co-workers and amazing management!

This center is more than anyone could hope for! Staff is welcoming and loving!

Incompetent staff, over priced. THIS IS NOT A LEARNING CENTER. The tour made it seem like they focus on children education, they dont. They basically just babysit your kid. They called me once a day due to my childs behavior when I asked why he was acting up they told me it was because he was learning and following the example of the other children. A teacher had to be removed from the room for yelling at him so loud. I would watch the cameras I would see the teachers on their phones while the kids played. I do not recommend. Choose a learning center otherwise your just paying for overpriced unqualified babysitters.

Love the daily reports and photos of my granddaughter

Our son is 3 and has been going here for almost a year now. We love it. Our son takes a while to adjust and they have always been patient with him no matter who the teachers are.Miss Waffaa was great when he started and always greeted him with hugs. It was very warming to me and Kaedyn always wanted his Wafaa!Now he has moved into Miss Haley & Miss Nicoles room and they are just as good to them. I love that they are still just as sweet to him but a little firmer to get him ready for school next year. He has learned so much from them its great to see and he always comes home talking about them. :)Of course Liz is always at the front desk in the morning full of smiles and always greats us with a Good Morning! Thanks every one at COA for being so warm and welcoming to us!
