Highly recommended! 10/7/2015

Educational Playcare is our first daycare experience. We have been very impressed with the cleanliness, and the staff and teachers are friendly and welcoming. Their communication is excellent and I highly recommend them! more

My child's home away from home! 8/19/2015

I have nothing but good things to say about Educational Playcare. They're fantastic! I particularly like how the program is personalized. When I go there, everyone knows my name and my child's name. The staff is amazing, and there's a lot of attention to detail. They do activities that you just don't see at other daycares, including outdoor play, music enrichment, sign language, and yoga. They even bring in animals! I'm a single parent and I work full time, so the onsite meals are really helpful. They also utilize a program called Tadpoles to send me pictures of my child about every two hours. At the end of the day, they send me a brief report of what they covered in class, including the sign language she learned so that I can reinforce it at home. It helps me stay connected, and I get to see what she's doing throughout the day. As a single parent, it's very hard to let go for the day, but I know she's in great hands there. I've already referred them to friends and family. more

Great experience, good people 6/24/2015

We have been clients with Educational Playcare since they took over management of our daycare in March. There was a little bump as we transitioned between management styles initially, but the issues have mostly been resolved now. Their pricing is a little high for us and we plan to move to a new daycare due to the price, but the Educational Playcare has a great team with many good, caring people. You can trust them with your children's care and we have already recommended their services. more

Excellent childcare provider for the needs of your family. 6/23/2015

I'm a mother of two and my kids had never been to daycare. I am extremely satisfied with everything Educational Playcare provides. Everything from the food to how they take care of them is great. My son has evolved a lot in everything he does. Since he started in May, he has changed a lot and I am extremely impressed. They have a program called tadpoles and they send you pictures of your son or daughter throughout the day. They also send you a detailed progress note, including how much they ate and everything. You are in constant contact with your child without them knowing. It gives you peace of mind throughout the day and it gives parents a sense of safety knowing that their child is well taken care of. more

Extremely effective communicators. 6/1/2015

The people at Educational Playcare are exceptional with regard to communicating with parents. They are very willing to address any issues that come. The only comment I have is that we had looked at other locations they had and were not as pleased. Aside from that, we're really happy and would recommend their service. more

They are a model for a childcare center. 5/27/2015

Educational Playcare is awesome. They take a holistic approach at their center, and look at the big picture with each student and age group. They accommodate the individual needs of each child. My daughter has been going since she was an infant, and is now in preschool. I like that every morning a director greets me, and in the evening a director says goodbye. Their system is phenomenal and they have everything broken down according to the developmental areas of a child. They have it broken by physical, mental, emotional (such as music), art, and you even get pictures. The staff is trained very well. Originally I was traumatized by how modern childcare is, and thought I would never be able to work because of it. Tom was an assistant director at the time, and greeted me when I went to look at their program. He let me know about their open door policy and if I needed to get to my daughter at any point, I was allowed. I thought, even if I have to eat Ramen Noodles everyday, my kid has to go there, haha. I would recommend them. more

Owner Message
  • Today, the importance of positive childhood experiences, starting from infancy, and their relation to future success in life is universally understood. It wasn't so when we began in 1986. When we originally selected the name "Educational Playcare", it was because of our understanding of the importance of play in order for learning to take place. We also knew the importance of providing a nurturing, secure, joyful and stimulating environment. Children learn best through direct experience. We believe that this direct experience is best gained through play, for play is the work of children. It is through play that children develop concepts about themselves and the world around them. Our goal is to provide the ideal environment to support the "work" of children. Educational Playcare was established in 1986 to provide full and part-time childcare and educational programs for children from 6 weeks to 12 years old. We are proud of our reputation as the provider of the highest-quality childcare, nursery school, and preschool programs for children that can be found anywhere. We've distinguished ourselves by providing exceptional services through being consistently at the cutting edge of technology as it applies to the early childhood industry and we've maintained these high standards with the quality control that comes from being owner operated. Despite our relatively small size, however, we are still able to offer all of the benefits of the large "corporate" child care centers and more! It has been our privilege to provide childcare services to thousands of families in Connecticut. In fact, some of our previous students have come back to work for us and help nurture the next generation!. Full and part time child care programs for children from 6 weeks to 2 years old.
