TESTIMONIALS

My infants started attending Inquiring Minds Learning Academy three years ago, and I couldn't have asked for a better daycare experience! The staff was absolutely amazing, caring, and dedicated to the children. Unfortunately, our family had to relocate, which meant we had to make the difficult decision to withdraw our children.

Since leaving, we have yet to find another daycare that compares to Inquiring Minds Learning Academy. The love, care, and quality of education our children received were truly exceptional. We miss the staff and the wonderful environment they created for our children.

Inquiring Minds Learning Academy is truly one of a kind, and I would highly recommend it to any family looking for a safe, loving, environment for their little ones!

Inquiring Minds Learning Academy is exactly what its name says—a wonderful place for children to learn and grow!

After speaking with the director on the phone for about 30 minutes, I immediately felt comfortable and reassured, and that was before I even visited the academy! Once I toured the facility, I knew it was the perfect fit for my children and me.

The academy provides such a clean, warm, loving, and welcoming environment. From the moment you walk through the doors, you can hear the children actively learning and engaging in educational activities.

My babies are doing so well, and I am amazed at how much they are learning and growing every day. I couldn't be happier with my decision!

I am beyond grateful that my cousin referred me to Inquiring Minds Learning Academy. It has truly been a blessing for our family, and I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a safe, nurturing, and educational environment for their children!

My family and I had a difficult time finding the right daycare for our son. We tried two different centers, but unfortunately, we weren’t completely happy with either one. Then someone recommended Inquiring Minds Learning Academy to us.

We scheduled a tour, and our son started the very next week. Since then, we have been extremely happy with our decision. Most importantly, we know our son is safe, well cared for, and learning every day.

When we pick him up, he is always clean and well taken care of. Almost every day, he comes home saying a new word or showing us something new that he learned at school. You can truly tell that the teachers at Inquiring Minds are not just watching the children—they are teaching them.

We are so grateful that someone recommended Inquiring Minds to our family. It has been a great experience, and we would definitely recommend this daycare to other families looking for a safe, caring, and educational environment for their children.

I currently have two former Inquiring Minds students in my class, and I am truly impressed by how academically advanced and well-prepared they are. At times, I find myself having to think of additional ways to challenge them because they are already so far ahead of many of the kindergarten expectations.

Although I do not have children of my own, based on what I have personally observed as an educator, I would highly recommend Inquiring Minds Learning Academy to families looking for a quality early childhood program.

These children are not simply entering kindergarten—they are entering prepared, and ready to learn. Inquiring Minds Learning Academy is clearly doing an excellent job getting these students ready for school.

Inquiring Minds Learning Academy is truly a hidden gem in Bloomfield! The center is tucked away in the back of a plaza, so many people may not even realize it’s there—but I’m so glad we found it.

The children at Inquiring Minds are learning, growing, and thriving every day. My son started in June and attended their summer camp program, and I am amazed at how much he has learned in just two months! I can already see so much growth and progress in him.

The teachers truly focus on education and helping each child reach their potential. I only wish I had known about Inquiring Minds years ago. I highly recommend this center to any parent looking for a caring, educational, and nurturing environment for their child.

Inquiring Minds Learning Academy is a wonderful daycare center! The facility is always clean, and the staff are loving, caring, and kind. My child is always clean, dry, and happy when I pick him up each day.

Inquiring minds is a great place so happy we found this place.

We often hear about children not being ready or failing in school. What an awesome opportunity to get your child up and ready for success early! The owner has worked with many educators and children before venturing out on her own servicing, educating and getting the babies ready for the world of knowledge. She's an educator, parent, caring and loving so don't miss the opportunity of placing your child in excellent hands. I stand behind what she is doing with touching the hearts of children.

Latraya Shepard is phenomenal, and great at what she does. My son was one of her first kids at age 2, and by the time he went to pre k 4 he knew his phonics like no one’s business. She takes the time to nurture the kids, she gives them confidence, and I’m extremely confident that she played a huge role in why my son is such a great reader today at age 7. I also sent my daughter to Latraya. She was going to another school before that and I noticed that she was unable to spell her name and recognize some of her letters. I immediately took my daughter out of that school and sent her to inquiring minds learning Academy (I.M.L.A) Within a couple of weeks my daughter was spelling her name, and was improving drastically with letter recognition, and her phonics. I’m extremely grateful to Latraya, I wish she could follow my kids throughout each grade and be their teacher. Between the fact that Latraya is very creative with teaching, nurturing, kind hearted, and overall just a beautiful being. Inquiring minds learning academy definitely gets my vote when it comes to an excellent learning environment. Get your kids registered, between what they will learn with Latraya, and if you as a parent keep that momentum at home. Your kid will be unstoppable!

My son has been at Inquiring Minds Childcare for 4 years. My past experiences with childcare were great with my other children. My experience with Latraya has been AMAZING. FROM DAY ONE my child has felt like apart of her family. When I pull off everyday during drop off I never look back or worry because he is in good hands. Besides safety and caring my son has learned so much. As he transitions in to Kindergarten I am sure he will do just fine. Academically he is beyond his years. He knows how to count in Spanish, he knows how to spell his name and write it. He knows a lot about science, animals, nature. He already knows simple math including some multiplication. Inquiring Minds Childcare is more that just a center to take care of kids, it is also a place where children grow, learn and are nurtured. I love it here!
