So happy to have found such a great environment for our little one! Our son always says how much fun he has when he comes home. Clean environment & the staff are always super friendly. Couldn’t recommend them enough.

INSPIRE is a truly WONDERFUL daycare!

We were in a difficult situation with our previous daycare—last-minute classroom closures, staff turnover, and ratio problems—so we started searching for a new place. Like many parents know, waitlists can be long, especially for younger children. When my husband first called Inspire on Queen Street, they didn’t have any openings.

After another issue at our old daycare, he called Inspire again on a hopeful whim, and Mindy let us know that an opening had become available in the twos room. We toured the facility with our daughter to make sure she felt comfortable. Mindy answered all our questions, and Heather showed us around. The rooms were clean, organized, and full of fun, engaging spaces. We knew we had to give Inspire a try—and after three months, it’s proven to be so much more than just “a step up.”

The communication is consistent, and the staff is friendly, reliable, and genuinely caring. Ms. Gloria greets my daughter almost every morning with the happiest “good morning.” Her positivity is infectious and truly brightens our day.

Our daughter was also in the middle of potty training when she started at Inspire, and her teachers, Ms. Julie and Ms. Kayde, worked closely with her. They encouraged us to switch her to underwear during the day, and she’s been doing amazing. It’s clear that the staff truly care about the kids, which means the world to me as a working mom who can’t be there all day.

We are so grateful to have found Inspire. Highly recommend!

Slightly biased as I am not just a parent but a staff member, but this center is incredible. I am a current floater through all classrooms. My children also attend this center. The love and care these teachers have for their children in their rooms show. Watching all of these children showcase their amazing skills everyday is incredible. Seeing young children know their letters and colors. Seeing the children in prek count to 100 correctly with little to no help. They know their sight words and can write their names. My own child’s speech grew incredibly. I’m so proud of this center and to be apart of it is a blessing.

My 5 year old attends the pre K program here and I love seeing how excited he is about learning. From Presidents Day to the water cycle and knowledge about trees, he's always genuinely excited to share what he's learned. I feel 100% sure of his safety and happiness with Ms. Amy and Ms. Gloria and that is huge for me as a parent.

The whole staff is great! I was so nervous putting my girls in a new daycare in a town they have never been in but Julie was so helpful through the whole enrollment process and my girls LOOOOOOVE coming to school everyday. The curriculum and activities Ms Amy & Ms Gloria put together for the pre k kids is great and Ms Michelle and Ms Myesha are so attentive and caring to my two year old and the rest of the kids in the class.i can tell they really care for the children here. The facility is nice and secure and makes me feel great knowing my kids are safe. I highly recommend enrolling your children here. I have no complaints my kids love it here and love their teachers. I am one happy mama.

My son and daughter have been going here for 3 months and they both really like it. The teachers and the director are all very responsive when I have questions and seem to really care about the well-being and development of both of my children. The price is VERY reasonable compared to other centers in the area. I think overall it is an excellent value and we are happier with the care our children receive here than what we experienced at another local daycare with national brand that was significantly more expensive. The food may not be as fancy as what they might get elsewhere, but for my kids that is perfectly fine.
During the summer they have fun “water play” days that both kids really enjoy. My son says he loves his teacher Miss Myesha because she is “sooooo nice”. My daughter doesn’t talk yet, but when we drop her off she goes right to Julie and is completely comfortable there. As a former stay at home mom, it was hard sending them away all day, but I feel good about my decision to send them to this facility. They have been very accommodating and I would recommend it.

The team at Aa to Zz has been amazing for my daughter. She has made so many personal connections, and truly loves all her teachers. She comes home and speaks so lovingly about her time with Miss La’tia, miss Abby, and is always so proud to show me the beautiful hairstyles that she gets from Miss Crystal. They provide great enrichment opportunities such as class pets, water play days, and most recently they brought in a traveling petting zoo of sorts to teach the toddlers about a variety of animals. I can’t imagine bringing my daughter anywhere else. She loves her school!
