Testimonials
We just started our infant in their program and have been very impressed by the responsiveness of management and the care given by the teachers and aides. They truly have a passion for what they do, and it shows!
Ashley
My daughter has been going here for a little over a year and she has blossomed so much! Her speech, writing, everyday skills! The teachers are amazing!
Kari
My daughter has been going to DOD for almost a year now and I am so impressed in how much she has learned in less than a year. My daughter loves going to preschool everyday and I highly recommend this place to everyone. The teachers are great and really take the time with kids. I love DOD!
Jami
My child has been going here for a year and a half now, and I have loved all his teachers (he will be 2 next month). The things he has learned at daycare seem to amaze me with every passing week, and he's only part time! You can tell they focus on education and social skills while there. The Daily Connect App keeps me updated on what he's doing throughout the day.

My son is 5 months old and has been attending Dawn of Discovery child care since he was 3 months. He absolutely loves going to daycare every day and lights up when he sees his teachers! Everyone that works there is so kind and caring. I never have to worry about the care my son is getting and I always look forward to seeing his adorable artwork!!! Such an amazing place! We are so blessed to have such an incredible group of ladies caring for our boy!
Stacy
We joined the Dawn of Discovery family almost 2 years ago. Our son started in the Preschool 1 room and our daughter started in Toddler 1. We recently moved out of the area and needed to find something closer to home but both our kids LOVED all their teachers at Dawn of Discovery.
I give them 5 stars because my son was diagnosed with ASD; Aspergers and Sensory Processing Disorder - while Dawn of Discovery ended up not being the ideal environment for him because of his special needs all of the teachers and directors were VERY courteous and professional on working on a plan with us to help our monkey and kept in good communications with us on when he was having hard days.
Dawn of Discovery always has fun things going on in the classrooms for kids. Our daughter's favorite thing in the world is all things oceans after Miss Shanna did a unit in her classroom and she was so proud of the octopus she made!
Miss Jess, Miss Mandy, Miss Shayla, Miss Hailey, Miss Lexi, Miss Taylor and more will all be missed by our family!!
Miss Jenna, Miss Patty, and Miss Andrea were all wonderful to work with as far as communicating with us on things going on with the kids. We loved the app we got to use in checking in on the kids throughout the day.
Had we not moved we would have stayed with Dawn of Discovery until Kindergarten time. We are so grateful we found Dawn of DIscovery and that our kids were lucky enough to have the great teachers that they did.
THANK YOU DAWN OF DISCOVERY!!!

We love Dawn of Discovery and our son does too! He is always happy to go to daycare and he loves to tell us about the fun he has all day. He is learning so much too, and we are impressed with the teachers and their ability to make learning fun. There are always art projects to bring home, which I love. The daily connect app allows us to see what he's up to during the day. There is always healthy food for breakfast, lunch, and snacks. Our son is well socialized and has grown so much since starting at Dawn of Discovery, we feel there is no better choice for our boy when we are at work. We highly recommend this child care center.
Molly
Our boys absolutely love Dawn of Discovery, the staff is always so friendly and caring.
Kimberly
My family and I have loved our experience at dawn of discovery. We were new to the center style daycare setting but are very please with it. My kids love to go and no longer cry when I drop them off due to the amazing staff making them feel loved and welcome. I would highly recommend them to other families.
Alexia
Dawn of Discovery is a great place for children. Friendly and caring staff that do a wonderful job with children of all ages. Ms.Jenna is just awesome. Lots of stimulating activity and creative projects for the kids. You can feel good about your child care while you are away at work, and your children will love the time they get to spend at Dawn of Discovery.
Rhonda
Best care your kid/kids could receive. I make a 40 minute trip one way just so I know my son has the best care possible!
Hailee
We moved our child to this center in March and could not be happier with the care she receives. All of the staff, down to the cook, are so wonderful. You can tell they all truly care for the children. I also love that this center is family owned. They seem to really care for and treat their staff well too!
Steph
There is no better daycare around! Dawn of Discovery feels different from other centers as soon as you step in the door. I don’t know how the teachers and staff have the energy, compassion, and empathy that they show each and every day to my kids (and to me!). I love the smiles and partnership and my kids LOVE coming here. The people here are truly special and the love and kindness they show is commendable. From checking pictures on the app, to sending a quick note to the teacher, to fun activities for the kids (e.g. yoga, bounce house, etc.), they make everything feel easy and help me feel so connected to my kids while I’m at work. I appreciate each and every teacher and staff member so much. Thank you so much for all you do for my family! You are all amazing and I can never share how much I appreciate you.
Amy
I continue to be blown away by the care and curriculum that my girls get each day. Everyone there from the teachers, to the office, and the kitchen staff truly care about each kid. My girls have both learned more than I could have every expected.
We love bounce houses and water days in the summer, as well as things like yoga, costume Kim, cooking and science all year round!
Nicole
My girls and I all love Dawn of Discovery. My toddler comes homes and talks about all her teachers, and what she does during the day. I love all the art she bring home. Along with the great teachers and staff the Daily connect app has been a great thing to have with my baby as well, took away all the nerves of returning to work. The kids learn so much here they are going to be way ahead when it's time to head off to school.
Nicole
I have a 7-month-old girl and a 2-year-old girl who attend Dawn of Discovery. My 2-year-old absolutely loves all of her teachers and staff. She recently had a long hospital stay and has some lasting medical issues. They have been so understanding and helpful in our difficult journey. Our daughter loves daycare so much that it is a process just to get her to out. Such a good feeling to know that your kids truly love daycare!
Rachel
My son has been there for about 6 months he loves it and has learned many new songs, colors ect. he does a lot of activities and seems to enjoy going
Jared
Friendly and Caring Staff! Love the environment!
Emily
Both of my boys have grown so much since attending Dawn Of Discovery. One of my children is hard of hearing, and the staff was very open to helping and learning how to manage this. My kids do art projects, eat great food, have loving happy teachers, exercise, and build friendships daily. Dawn of Discovery is one of the most affordable childcare centers, but they are not lacking in the quality of care they provide. With long hours, this is my children's home away from home.
Casey
This place has the most friendly and caring staff and an excellent facility. I am so impressed with how much everyone there car s. My son loves everyone including the cook. The curriculum is fantastic, my son retains so much. With two working parents he doesn't get as much time learning at home as I did growing up so when he comes home and knows his letters when we read it makes me so grateful to have found dawn of discovery. They constantly improve and adjust as needed and have been so good to us. I will be sad when my son moves on to full time school.
Shawn
They are amazing at Dawn of Discovery. My son never comes home crabby from daycare. He is always doing arts & crafts and sensory stimulation! Highly recommend them!
Cori
I love Dawn of Discovery and the staff! They go above and beyond each day. Definitely recommended to anyone looking for childcare!
Lindsey
My almost 1 year old has been going to Dawn of Discovery for almost 3 months and we LOVE it! All of the teachers are amazing, very kind, and great communicators! The app they use each day to write updates and send pictures is so great! Love the facilities and am very happy we got a spot here ???? 10000% would recommend!
Amber
My 2.5 y/o son has been going to DOD for about 6 months and we have had a great experience. He loves it, and the teachers are very friendly.
Jesse
Our son has been to 3 daycares and this is by far the best! He is 2 years old and his speech is improving, I believe it has a lot to do with the structure and education plans.
Bri
My daughter has been going here since January 2016 and we couldn't love it more! Staff is friendly, facility is clean and my daughter has learned SO MUCH! She's almost 3 and already knows the colors in Spanish thanks to her preschool classroom. She comes home happy everyday, and I know she's safe and taken care of when I can't be with her which is priceless! (And knowing what she's doing most of the day through the Daily Connect app is a big bonus!)
Mackenzie
My daughter just started a week ago, she loves every minute of it. I love to see and hear what they do in class, I also love they do home cooked meals.
Ashley
We've been with DOD for almost a year and our kids love it! The staff is awesome and welcoming every morning. Our kids have learned so much from their curriculum. It's amazing. Would for sure recommend them to other families in the area!
Sarah
Raising kids is difficult. Choosing a care provider for them is one of hardest choices a parent has to make. It's stressful, it's scary to leave your child with strangers you barely know. But it takes a village to raise a child. And the staff at Dawn of Discovery are so wonderful, I am glad they have been a part of raising my children. I would list names but I never met a staff member at Dawn of Discovery who did anything but meet my expectations. This is childcare done right. Drop your kids off and know they are in the hands of individuals who care about each child and their well being. Dawn of Discovery will communicate with you through an awesome app, phone, email, paper notifications, news letters, etc. You will never wonder, how is my kid today. You will always know, doing just fine, having fun, and safe.
Kyle
We love Dawn of Discovery! The teachers are great and my girls love them! They have learned so much in the few months that they've been there. The hours they are open are a lifesaver since I work all the way in Brooklyn Park.
It is a great feeling to drop off your children and know they will have fun, learn and be taken care of in a clean & safe environment.
I would highly recommend this daycare to anyone!
Monica
This is a wonderful place My granddaughter started here in January shortly after they opened and she loves it.
Tammy
We absolutely love it at Dawn of Discovery. Anyone that is ever looking for a great place to send their child we always recommend Dawn of Discovery. You have wonderful staff that truly cares about each and every one of the children!
Megan
Our experience with Dawn of Discovery has been great! The staff is easy to work with and their care for children definitely shows. Seeing our daughter excited about going to school demonstrates the kind of atmosphere the staff promotes. It has been great seeing my daughter grow and learn so much!
Krista
We are new to Dawn of Discovery, and are very pleased with the care they provide our boys. The activities, structure, and curriculum is just what we were looking for. Thank you for all you do!
