Small World Learning Center (Champlin)

I have taken all my childern here and their service and staff are just great!

I love SWLC. I have had nothing but great experiences with the company. My child was in the Toddler room at the Lancaster Lane location, and her teachers were fabulous. I would recommend SWLC to anyone :)

I have two children attending the small world learning center in the knollwood location. I have experienced every room except school age room. Most of the staff is wonderful. And the daycare is run very well. Infant room: When my son was in the infant room, I thou...ght it was great. The teachers communicated well to me. The only con of the infant room is that it closes at 5:30 instead of 6:00 like the rest of the rooms. Toddler Room: This is one room I did not like in the center. There was constant turnover, but I also had my older daughter attend another daycare and they had the same problem in the toddler room, so I think that is common in most daycares. They now have 1 good teacher in the toddler room, but in the past the teachers were average, they didn't communicate well. Older and Younger pre-school romms: These rooms are fabulas..all 4 awesome teachers! They do a great job of teaching and really care for the kids and put in a lot of effort and are great communica Read More

As a parent of a child who has attended both locations of Small World Learning Center, I can tell you that, until the recent management change made (around March 2008), I was concerned about how the centers were run and was considering pulling my child out of the daycar...e center. It saddened me, however, since the teachers there -- especially at the Maple Knoll location -- are really fantastic and invested in their kids. After the recent change in management, things have gotten significantly better, and I would, in fact, recommend to friends, family, and coworkers that folks take their kids there. This center has gone through some major transitions over time, but it's in a great place now. The owner was willing to make some hard decisions about what kind of place he wanted Small World to be, and I applaud him for it. Read More

I would not recommend this childcare center to my worst enemy. They leave children alone in the classrooms with no supervision. The managers/directors are horrible to their staff.

My 2 year old daughter goes here, and it is an EXCELLENT CENTER. I did allot of research and this small center is above the rest. Small class sizes cater to children’s personal needs, such as potty training, separation anxiety, you name it – just talk to them about ...it and they will work on it with your child. They have a great curriculum and spend allot of time teaching as well as playing and creating… I would HIGHLY recommend this school! Read More
