Hamilton Heights is our third daycare we’ve had our girl in and they have been beyond amazing to her and us as parents! Our daughter started there at 6 months old and is now 10 months and thriving! The peace of mind having her in great care of her teachers is enough for me as a mom to highly recommend Hamilton Heights to anyone looking for quality care and love for the children in their center!

As a mom of a COVID baby who spent his early years at home with me, sending my little one to daycare for the first time was a big and emotional step. At 4 years old, he was ready to socialize and learn in a new environment, but he was also scared to be away from me. From the very beginning, the incredible staff at Hamilton Heights made this transition so much easier.I cannot express enough gratitude to Ms. Yessica, Ms. Yazmin, and Mr. Craig for their patience, kindness, and genuine care. They went above and beyond to help my son feel safe, welcomed, and loved. Their warmth and dedication, along with the support of the entire staff, created an environment where he could thrive. Everyone at Hamilton Heights is always so friendly, helpful, and attentive, and I truly feel like they care about each and every child.Thanks to them, my son now loves going to daycare, making friends, and learning new things every day. I couldn’t recommend this place more, it has been an absolute blessing for our family! Thank you, Hamilton Heights, for everything you do! 💕

Absolutely love this daycare! After doing childcare for 8 years i know what can and can’t be done in a classroom and they exceed expectations! I love the camera access. They are all like family. My son was in the hospital and the director came up and visited us. Highly recommend!!

Hamilton Heights is the best! We love the infant rooms and teachers. They did a wonderful job with our babies. The staff is loyal to the center. Lead teachers have been there forever! Tonya, Zoe and Gene are amazing with the Toddlers. My little one talks about them all the time! We also had our older one with Tracey & Courtney and Ms. Eliza. She misses them all and we had the best experiences with preschool and pre-k. Fantastic program you guys have! Thank you.

Hamilton Heights is fantastic.My experience is specifically with the West Omaha / Taylor St. location, but I've heard that all the locations are great.A little about Hamilton Heights Taylor Street:Drop off after 6AM, Pickup before 6PM. Pricing is competitive. Discount for multiple children.It is split up into classrooms, each with 2 teachers and ~8-10 children (placed based on age, development & common sense).There are no screens in the rooms.There is plenty of equipment/activities, books, and a stereo for music in each room.There is a big indoor gym and a ton of outdoor space with several separate playgrounds which are shared in larger groups (while supervised by more teachers) according to age. When the weather is nice - they are outside a TON.Teachers:Each class has two teachers. Each lead teacher has some form of formal training in education, early childhood education, child development, etc. while each assistant is either pursuing similar education or has an abundance of experience in childcare.Additionally, the teachers must complete a thorough initial training. It's about twice as many hours as what is required by the state, and includes all state requirements. They also hold mandatory, monthly continuing education classes for all teachers, and a full day teacher in-service once every couple months.This in particular really makes Hamilton Heights feel consistent and cohesive... like the teachers are a team. The messaging to the children is consistent - rules, expectations, you name it. What is taught to 2 year olds remains consistent for 4-5 year olds.Hamilton Heights stays up-to-date with research-based best practices for child development, focusing on emotional intelligence, problem-solving, and self-regulation in a supportive environment.The teachers at Hamilton Heights do weekly lesson plans. Even for the infants. Do we occasionally laugh at the latest embellishment of what's considered "sensory play" since it's basically anything you can touch? Sure. But we’re grateful to have teachers who put real thought into creating a diverse range of activities - even for infants - multiple times a day, five days a week, all year round. Having teachers purposefully creating activities for each day that fall into specific developmental categories, such as "sensory play", is outstanding.This is equally apparent in the older classrooms. In Pre-K, for instance, they upload a photo of the following week's lesson plan on Friday. It's a great way to talk with your kids about what they're doing at school each day.They also have two apps they use regularly:One allows you to see a video feed of the classroom (average quality/no audio). It is private, requires approval from the director, and is only available to the parent/guardians of the children in that specific room.The other allows you to communicate directly with leadership and your child's teachers. The teachers will occasionally upload photos to your private feed so you can see your kid(s) learning new things, doing experiments, playing and hanging out with friends. They caption each one for context. "Small Group Activity: Monster finger painting!", for instance. This app is also great for keeping up on things like lesson plans, needs (diapers/wipes), projects requiring things from home (like a family photo or a t-shirt to tie-dye).All of that aside though, the reason we have come to love Hamilton Heights is the people. The leadership is excellent, they hire great people, and it shows. Our kids love their teachers. And as they've moved up from infant rooms to toddler ones to Pre-K, they've had plenty, and they have all been fantastic. But it's equally apparent how genuinely the teachers care for the kids. That's priceless.We're lucky we found this place.

We have loved Hamilton Heights. The teachers and staff are very caring, patient and organized. We know we can really rely on this daycare and feel comforted by how much our child enjoys it. It's hard to decide on a daycare and we are very happy with Hamilton Heights.

We have been with our "Ham Fam" for 3+years know and love it. We started our daughter in a preschool room and when we adopted our son, I knew there was nowhere else I wanted him to be! Infant and toddler care has lived up to those high expectations set by the preschool. I know our children are safe, learning, having fun, and most importantly loved.

My family loves this place. Safety is our main priority and the staff goes above and beyond to ensure our kiddo is safe. They take extra steps that most other daycares wouldn’t. Love the staff!

Very clean, professional and diligent daycare. We love the camera access and app that gives updates throughout the day for our infant. Drop off and pick up are smooth with teachers who really care. Communication is easy and well received.

My wife and I absolutely love this place. They take extra care of your children when it comes to safety. Every time I show up the workers are polite. And always give me more details than I even need about my child that day. You can tell they really care.

Hamilton heights helped my son tremendously ! After other daycares gave up on him HH kept working with him and we saw a drastic difference with in just a few weeks . I am so thankful for their staff and all they did for Vincent . They have a consistent teacher in the classroom which children thrive on consistency and a well developed program.

We’ve gone to Hamilton Heights for over 6 years. The staff are amazing and truly care about my children. They treat them like their own. I’ve never stressed about the care they receive. I’d 100% recommend HHCDC!

Staff, Facilities, location, playground are all wonderful. They get the kids outside everyday year round - sledding in the winter, water play in the summer. My daughter comes home well cared for!

Very happy with the care my sons have had in the infant , toddler, preschool, and pre-k rooms! All of the staff are friendly, caring, and accessible. The teachers get to know the kids as individuals and engage them on their interests. Also love all that they prioritize outdoor time.

My children have been going to Hamilton Heights Child Development Center since they were infants and my oldest is now in first grade. The best things about Hamilton Heights CDC are the dedicated staff, the playground and encouraged outside time, and the attention to learning through play. Many of the staff have worked at Hamilton Heights for more than ten years. Staff have monthly trainings and it is obvious that there is a positive work environment and culture. Most importantly, my children are safe and loved and look forward to their day of play! I am thankful to have had a partner in Hamilton Heights the last six years.

We absolutely cannot say enough great things about HH in Papillion. Wendy, the Director, is amazing. She hires staff that are knowledgeable, patient, truly care. They go above and beyond. Our two little guys come with some special needs and HH, not only embraced them like any other child, but they proactively seek out ways to engage the children by recognizing their strengths. Although they are twins, they are seen as individual children with different strength and needs. The staff is also diverse, which was important to us. They learn from each other and provide which provides an all around better experience for us.

The Shire is not only the best place to work but the best place to take my child. I trust all of my son’s teachers without a doubt. I love coming to work and working with all the kiddos. My son has learned so much in the last year and is talking so much. 😊

Hamilton Heights has been an absolute game-changer for us! My toddler loves going to “school” every day, has started talking more, learning sign language which has made our lives sooo much easier, and is even starting to sit on the potty before 2! He is learning so much and I’m so grateful!

What an incredible place to leave your child at! Every day when we pull up my daughter is so excited to go in and see everyone. They are kind, thoughtful, and joyous. They also have so many experienced people here that I really appreciate their advice as a first time parent. I can't begin to say how grateful I am to have a wonderful place like this in Lincoln. I can go to work knowing my daughter is well fed, well cared for, and having a tremendous day!

We are so grateful for the Hamilton Heights location in central Omaha. The teachers here really helped ease our transition being first-time, working parents. The infant room teachers were so supportive and calmed my anxieties. The hours are better than any other center we looked at which is important since I work in healthcare. The facility is clean and there are plenty of stimulating toys and activities for the kids.

Very clean, well managed and organized daycare. Staff is great to children, cameras give parents that work long hours great added security. Wendy the director is hands down the best daycare director around the metro area, she is not only AMAZING to the children but the teachers/staff as well.

Staff and leadership are great! We have loved the 5 years our daughter has spent at HHCDC! We fully trust the team to care for her and she really enjoys her time spent there. We especially love the summer program and all of the fun activities that the staff plans for the school age children to keep them engaged!

The absolute best staff and management. We have had all three of our kids with hamilton heights over the past three years and can’t imagine having them anywhere else. We love being a part of the Hamilton Heights family!

Hamilton Heights is our second family! We’ve been with them since my daughter (who turns 5 in September) was 6 months old. From the infant rooms to the PreK room, we’ve always felt that our children were/are safe, well loved and taken care of! Mallory, Zoe and Kathy are amazing! To have a child center with so many tenured employees says something about Hamilton Heights! They treat their employees and families like their own! Thank you HHDC!

I can't say enough good things about HH. They found space for my child when he had a rough experience at a different facility and welcomed him with open arms.Their communication is stellar. I get a report on the app almost daily (along with pics!). The app is extremely easy to use and the director also addresses concerns or questions.My kiddo has had the best teachers who care about him. It's hard to leave your babes while you go work, but I have zero qualms leaving him at HH. He's learning through play and enjoys being with others his age. This is truly a special place and I'm so happy to have found it.

This is truly the best daycare! Not only do I love and trust the staff here, my little one really enjoys his time here too! Can’t forget to mention the new building, the camera access perk, and that the classrooms are spacious and clean. I recommend the Hamilton Heights Papillion location to all of my friends and family - in fact, we enjoy it so much that staying close in vicinity was high on our priority list when looking for a new house. We feel so lucky to get to be a part of the Hamilton heights Papillion family!

My son attends Pre-K here and we love it!He always has a smile on his face when talking about his school, teacher, and friends! He’s excited to go!I work full-time, so we’ve had to take him to centers in the past and in comparison, drop-offs here are so comfortable! They don’t rush parents out, and I was shocked when I realized I rarely hear crying in the building. They really care about growing bonds with the kids and they want them to be comfortable.They do their best to make parents comfortable as well; the cameras are a great way to check in and see your child engaged and enjoying their day, really puts me at ease.Pick-ups are great; he is always playing happily with friends but drops everything to run and give me the biggest hug! Then his teacher makes time to tell me about his day before we head out.There are not enough stars to give this center!

This summer was an amazing experience for my school aged child. He loved volunteering, the field trips, water days and other fun activities. The teachers were great and made the summer memorable. The strongest endorsement of Hamilton Heights is from my 9 year old son who would ask, "why are you here so early" in a disappointed voice if I picked him up before 5pm. He had so much fun he didn't want to leave. I highly recommend Hamilton Heights!

We could not be more grateful for our experience at Hamilton Heights. As first-time parents, we were very nervous about sending our daughter to daycare. We had toured a few other daycares in town but knew after our tour with Amy that Hamilton Heights was our top choice, and we were lucky enough to get a spot. Ever since our interaction with Brenda on our daughter's first day, we knew she would be in good hands. The teachers in Infant 1 and Infant 2 are a phenomenal group of individuals, and we could not be more thankful for the time our daughter spent with them (Brenda, Brittany, Tina, Stephanie, Emma). The smile our daughter gave each one of them as she arrived and left for the day reassured us that we made the right decision in sending her there. I loved checking in on her by watching the cameras or messaging staff directly. Unfortunately, we are moving, and we can confidently say that it will be hard, near impossible, to find a better daycare for our daughter. We will miss Hamilton Heights.

Really phenomenal facility! This is hands down the best childcare center we've seen. The building is very new and clean, and the process for pickup/drop off is very secure as well. The staff are all friendly and great with the kids. My son said he really loved it there. There's always something for them to do and learn about. I highly recommend Hamilton Heights if you're looking for an affordable above and beyond day care.

Hamilton Heights has been an amazing daycare for our family! My girls love to go and have built great relationships with the teachers. They talk about them day and night. I have really appreciated how flexible the staff has been with our schedules and their communication regarding any changes or field trips! We feel very blessed to have found a center that feels like a family!

After having a difficult experience at a previous center, I felt like it was not possible to trust anyone with my child again. Wendy, the director, listened to each and every one of my concerns from the moment I contacted her. The teachers provide fun, hands on activities for the kids and my child has the best time! I get several photo updates every day and the communication has been outstanding. I love that I can logon to the live cameras anytime to check in as well. HHCDC has been everything I had hoped to find for my child, we love it here!

Honestly, I would recommend this daycare to everyone. There were issues previously with our old daycare. I went in to tour with Mallory, and I explained everything to her. I felt confident in the daycare after our conversation.After my children started at Hamilton, they were thriving in the school work/ learning. My oldest was coming home telling me about all of the studies. It is amazing to see just how much they progress in a short amount of time.The daycare is more than just a daycare. I've never seen teachers care about the kids they way they do. They have a great staff (management and all). Turnover rate is typically high at daycares, but I haven't seen hardly any. That says a lot right there. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone looking for childcare to check them out.

Hamilton Heights is one of the best play based centers in Lincoln. One of the most influential ways to learn is by playing & exploring the world. The staff are trained thoroughly, they treat each child with respect & showers them with love. It’s like a big happy family. The teachers strive to build relationships with each & every child not just in their primary room. They also use Procare to keep in contact with parents daily & cameras are also available for you to check in on your child throughout your day. My favorite part is receiving pictures of my kiddos throughout the week & receiving art they have done at the end of the week. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

We love Hamilton Heights, specifically this new location! We have a 1 year old son who has been going here since 5 months old. We cannot express how reassuring it is to have such loving, experienced teachers taking care of him everyday. Ms Paityn, Ms Alexis and Ms Nikki do an outstanding job with the infant room and it is clear they love our child as much as we do. The leadership at this location is outstanding and does a great job with communication to make parents and teachers feel comfortable. A huge plus is that they have also helped us so much with big transitions (nap schedules, purees, solid foods, etc), as first time parents this was incredibly helpful when we weren't sure the next steps

We have had our oldest at HHCDC for almost 3 years and our youngest for almost 1 year and we have had a great experience! The teachers work really well with both of our kids to try to foster development in all aspects of their growth. All of them really care about the kids! They provide feedback daily on how the kids' day was when we pick them up. Natasha and Amy who run the center are great! They are involved with all of the kids and are very approachable and quick to respond if you have a question or concern. We love getting photos or videos of the activities the kids are doing or even something that is just funny that they did. We also really enjoy checking in on what our kids are doing with the cameras in the classrooms. We really feel the teachers love and care for our kids!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Hamilton Heights Child Development Center off 29th in Lincoln!!! Having to go back to work and put my child in daycare caused me such extreme anxiety and sadness up until her first day after I dropped her off. The ladies in her room were absolutely phenomenal and quickly became like her second, third, fourth, and so on mother’s. If you are looking for someone to care for your child/children like they are their own, Hamilton Heights is the place for you and your family! All of the staff are extremely welcoming and accommodating, and you won’t regret being a part of the Hamilton Heights family!

We love HHCDC! Our kids were at home with a nanny the first few years of life and when we decided to find a daycare for more socialization, I was nervous. We have had a great experience. We love the teachers and staff. It's a clean, safe, fun environment for our kids. I love that they use an app to communicate with us daily and I can check in on the cameras whenever I want. Our kids look forward to seeing their friends and teachers every day. Highly recommend!

We've been at this CDC for 2 years and it just keeps getting better! When my son talks about having a good time with his teachers before we go to bed and excitedly calls their name and runs in for hugs when we arrive at daycare, it further confirms we've made the right choice. My daughter just started in the infant room and the warm affection and diligent cares with her specific needs are unparalleled. We get updates on their daily activities with the explanations of how the evidenced -based play is developmentally beneficial. The facility is locked and secure. Each child gets the unique attention they deserve by a staff that is truly passionate about kids. Shout out to Miss Tina, Miss Brittney, Miss Jaz, Miss Kristin, Amy, Natasha, and Brandy - it feels like they treat my kiddos like family and that's the trust and love that makes me feel confident with Hamilton Heights becoming part of my "village"

my son has been attending this daycare for 2 weeks now and usually it takes him a while to get used to things (he was at a daycare for 6 months and still nit used to it and still didn't liked it) and would still cry when i left but here within a week he was ready every day to go in he tells me all the time how much he loves it here they are nurturing and do a lot of one-on-one time with kids. would highly recommend!!

My daughter loves the one-on-one connections she’s experiencing with her teachers. She shares positive stories about her day and can’t wait to return each morning. She’s able to express that she feels safe and loved by her class. She’s building positive life-long skills in a great environment!

Seriously the best daycare in town! I came to HH a year and a half ago from another daycare in town and let me just say the difference in how they treat their employees is night and day! The owner of the last daycare I worked at told me that daycare is a thankless job but not at Hamilton Heights. The perks and the benefits are just amazing and so is the amazing team I work with.

We love Hamilton Heights! Our toddler comes home talking about how much fun she had that day and feels comfortable and safe around all the teachers. The director, Natasha, is amazing! She is always sending us photos of our kids and the funny/cute things they did that day. In addition to the great staff, we love that we can check in on our kids on the cameras and be able to see updates, photos, and chat on the Procare app.

I cannot recommend this daycare enough! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The staff here truly cares about the well-being and development of each child, they took the time and effort to help my child warm up to a new center!Communication is exceptional. The daycare regularly updates parents on their child's progress and shares photos and videos, creating a sense of involvement and peace of mind. They are always available to address any concerns or questions I may have.Safety is paramount at this daycare. They have secure entry systems, follow strict protocols. I have complete confidence in entrusting my child's safety to them.

I cannot say enough good things about this daycare -- it is (obviously) my go to recommendation for anyone looking for child care. I have always felt my kiddo has been well cared, loved, and safe. The extra amenities (classroom camera, digital daily sheets, photos, etc.) have allowed us to be a part of our kiddo's day-to-day learning.

I am so happy my son attends HHCDC on Pine Lake in Lincoln. He has thrived there.The teachers practice conscious discipline, which empowers children to make healthy choices and regulate their emotions.They serve healthy meals, and reinforce self-care through nutrition and exercise. They also reinforce good table manners.HHCDC teachers create curricula appropriate to the stage of development in each class (Pre-K focuses on fine motor skill development, letter recognition, etc., while School Agers’ tasks are tailored to each child as they are in a wider age group.)My son’s teacher (Miss Brandy) in the school age room went above and beyond by creating daily exercises to address his specific challenges in Kindergarten that I shared with her. He and other same-grade students practice writing their names M-Th before getting breakfast. (Fridays, the kids get a break on this chore.) She also created exercises for him to practice sitting still and do table work quietly, which is not his nature! He has greatly improved writing his name and focusing on seated tasks.Every teacher he’s had communicates regularly with me, which helps me reinforce skills at home.My son has grown academically, emotionally, and socially since attending HHCDC.I also appreciate that they transport to/from school and teachers are required to attend continuing education. The teachers seem very happy to be there, which impacts the kids’ attitudes. It is a happy, healthy, safe place.We have made friendships that translate outside of daycare, and I’ve developed a list of supporters who I can trust to watch my son in the evenings and on weekends when I need extra help. This has been huge for me because I am a single mom (special mention to teachers Allyssa, Evan, and Erin).We enjoy their family activities like when they rented out Star City Shores last summer and all families could swim and socialize for free. We are looking forward to the Fall Hullabaloo this Sunday, where we will get a chance to have family pictures taken for a very reasonable price and play with animals (petting zoo) and enjoy socializing with the staff and other families.Please consider this great daycare if you’re looking for care in the South Lincoln area. I can’t recommend it enough.

My daughter has been at HHCDC since she was 10 weeks old and we absolutely love it. The leadership is second to none. Natasha and Amy are on it and communicate really well with parents. I love the camera access so that I can check on my child throughout the day. The app is really easy to use and makes it easy to communicate with teachers. I know my daughter has learned a tremendous amount there and she loves her teachers; they're all she talks about at home! I'd highly recommend this center for anyone in the area.

I’ve been sending my daughter here for a year now, and her older sisters joined this summer for their summer camp program. My one school-age daughter cried when the summer was over because she loved her teachers so much and had a blast this summer. They went on so many field trips and made a lot of memories with new friends and the sweetest teachers! It was definitely worth the money! They ask me every month if they have any breaks from school so they can go back to Hamilton for their drop-in service. I cannot say enough about this center. My youngest is in the preschool classroom. They have such detailed lesson plans, and I’m amazed at all the things she’s been learning here. Not only is she learning counting and the alphabet, but she’s also learning social skills, empathy, problem solving, conflict resolution, and how to take care of her environment. Each week they have an assigned job in the classroom. I implement a lot of ideas I’ve seen used in the classroom into my own parenting at home. Their outside space is amazing!! Nature and imaginative play is really big here. They spend a lot of time outside, which I love. The teachers are clearly valued and treated well here, because they all seem to genuinely love their jobs. Every teacher I’ve had the pleasure to meet has been so kind and loving toward my children and toward me. They greet us by name, with a smile, so drop off is a breeze. The teachers are well educated on child development, and they create such a fun learning environment for the students. The building is clean and safety standards are in place, so I feel completely comfortable sending my children here. I recommend this center to everyone I know who has children. This is the third center that we’ve used here in Omaha; while there are a lot of great centers to choose from in town, none of which are cheap, this one has been my absolute favorite and is worth every single penny. It’s been an incredible investment for my children’s futures. 5 stars are not enough.

I have only been at Hamilton Heights for about a month, but they have been more than accommodating with our 5 year old. I'm thankful that I found this daycare. My son has had some past traumas with his old daycare. They have worked with us to correct issues that we are having with our son. I couldn't be happier with my decision to enroll our 2 boys. They are the happiest they have been. Thank you again! I HIGHLY recommend this daycare.

I've taken my two children there for their entire lives and have had nothing but great experiences. My oldest is thriving in elementary school thanks to her foundation for learning at Hamilton Heights, while my youngest is there and loved on every day. The experienced and passionate staff make the difference over other child care centers in the area. I'd give 500 stars if I could.

We love the teachers and community at Hamilton Heights. My children have benefited from not only their classroom friends and teachers, but by being exposed to all kids of all ages. The hours are extremely convenient for working parents and the curriculum also came highly recommended by experienced early childhood educators as well.

We have been with Hamilton Heights for almost three years and we are so happy with our choice! The teachers truly care about my kids and they help them learn and grow. Teachers have lesson plans for each week and I love getting to hear about what they are learning about. The app that gives me live updates as well as camera access to the rooms is an extra bonus. I like getting to peak in on their day when I'm missing them!

Our son has attended Hamilton Heights since July and we couldn't be happier. Since the location is not quite yet opened, the staff have opened up rooms in a different location to make sure that we have the care that we need for our son. He absolutely loves his teachers and we always get updates and pictures throughout the day about how the day is going. Every teacher in the classroom is so caring and work with him every day to make sure he is thriving. We look forward to the location opening as it is such a beautiful place!

I absolutely love this place and have complete trust in this daycare. Being a stay at home mom with my son, to having to send my daughter daycare she went to a Montessori in town before and they treated her terribly after her teacher quit. I decided to look around more and eventually found Hamilton Heights. When I walked through the tour I loved how the staff interacted with children and how they were towards myself. It was a very welcoming environment. I have complete trust in bringing my daughter here and she for once doesn’t scream cry about going to “school”, she’s excited to go. And that melts my heart and gives me the confidence in knowing she is in a safe environment. I even sent my son to the summer program at the 156th location and was nervous about it because he’s never been anywhere except school, and he LOVED it 🥰. What can I say we’re Ham Fam for life and I recommend it to all my mom friends and moms I meet.

We loved Hamilton Heights- it became our kids' second family! Our kids attended HH for the past 10+ years and they loved every minute. The teachers have always been very attentive and caring. They provide age appropriate activities for the kids and lots of hands on activities. They use the ProCare app which allows messages to be sent, updates throughout the day, and pictures. Cameras are also accessible during the day. The only reason we left is because our youngest moved onto PreK at his big sister's school. He was prepared and ready for PreK, he has had no issues adjusting to school and I thank Hamilton Heights for preparing him so well!

A lot of out of their control situations happening, which in most cases would cause problems that bleed down to the parents. However, with this team everything is running smoothly and we as parents are being thought of and given options to make our lives easier. I appreciate their ways of supporting us through their tougher situations and maintaining communication and relationship building. My daughter LOVED her old daycare but because of the teachers here she had a seamless transition and is excited to go to school every day.

Hamilton Heights has been our daycare family for 8 years- the staff is truly amazing in how they get to know your family so well. They are so caring and flexible! They have a dedication that is unmatched! My kids have been very well prepared for kindergarten which sets up a long, positive experience for school! I would recommend Hamilton Heights over and over!

My two children started at Hamilton Heights in August and we absolutely love it! The entire staff is warm and welcoming and I know my children are in great hands and learning while I am at work. I love getting updates on Procare throughout the day and checking in on the web cams so I can see my children playing.

We have loved Hamilton Heights. My two kids started when they were 1 and 3 years old and everyone has been so friendly. It is easy to communicate with teachers and directors every day. My kids continue to love going to their school and they are 2 and 4 years old. Both of them always run to their teachers and have no problems saying buy to mom or dad!

We love Hamilton Heights! My daughter practically jumps out of my arms into the daycare teachers arms when I bring her. I can’t describe how comforting that is as a mom. They put a lot of time into creating activities that not only help the infants/toddlers/kids meet their milestones, but are fun and engaging for them. Lastly, my daughter has had to have PT OT and a hearing specialist since she was a baby, and they have been so amazing working with all her therapists and going above and beyond to ensure she was able to catch up to her peers. Also, Amy and Natasha are both angels on earth. And her classroom teachers Morgan and Bri are the best.

The teachers they can retain are so good with the kids. I hope they do what it takes to keep the current talent they have. I regularly buy my son’s teachers gifts and little things to show my appreciation. They don’t get paid enough. The director, Brandy is also really sweet.

You know you've selected the best daycare when your child asks to return to school during pick-up. We love the teachers and staff at this center. Incredibly friendly and caring! Everyone seems to know the children's name and seems to genuinely love being there. Cannot express how much our family adore all the teachers at this center. Thank you!

I wish I could give them a million stars. Not only do they have cameras, but everyone is so friendly and keeps us informed. Somehow they've managed to get my kiddo to nap. He hasn't napped in at least a year and a half. He's so happy when he comes home and so excited to go to daycare every day. I'm so grateful that we were able to get a spot.

Hamilton Heights is a wonderful place - our son loved the teachers and the indoor/outdoor activities offered. Hamilton Heights is great about giving you daily feedback on how your child is doing, so as a parent you feel very connected to your child even though they're away during the day. Highly recommend to others! Great value

We have been taking our two children here for almost a year now and they are truly like family! All of the teachers know each of our kids names and are always saying hi to them while we do drop off/pick up. One big reason we chose them was they worked with my schedule being a nurse and we are able to send them part time! Would recommend them to anyone who Is looking for exceptional and compassionate care for their children!

Both of my school age sons attend Hamilton Heights on non-school days and during the summer. I couldn't ask for better teachers and staff to be working with my children! They let me know the positives and the negatives of their day, which I always appreciate! Thanks again Hamilton for being such awesome & caring individuals.

The staff is so kind and understanding to the needs of my daughter. Even when my daughter has had a challenging day they still have something positive to say and always make us feel welcome. I really love that they have cameras in the rooms that you can log on to and watch your child from your phone to see how their day is going. The teachers are engaging and I feel like the directors genuinely care about the families.

My son has attended this center for a few years and we cannot express enough great things about them. The staff are incredibly friendly, the center itself is in a great and safe location, and my son made many great friends throughout his time here. I will recommend friends and family to them for years to come so that they may experience the same care that my son did. Thank you Hamilton Heights!

Our son has attended Hamiltons Preschool and Pre K programs and I couldn’t recommend a better child center. We have crossed many milestones during our time with the company and they have been so wonderful to work with. The center creates a caring, family environment where everyone knows each other and ensures the safety and care of your little ones.A special thank you to his teachers Ms. Gina and Ms. Melissa!

Hamilton Heights is a wonderful facility. I have had three children enrolled in the program and loved all of the experiences infant through school age. We enjoy the close, family environment of the center and the friendly and caring staff.

My daughter has gone to CMCDC since she was 3 months old. I absolutely LOVE this center and all of their staff. They are very good with the kids and also amazing with the parents as far as communication and respecting your wants/ accommodations for your child. I get pictures of my daughter throughout the day when I am missing her and get to see how & what she is doing. The owner Mel, is great and you can really see her dedication and passion for what she does and the incredible center she runs. Recommend 10/10 hands down.
