Adventures In Learning

I’m Timothy C’s wife and am writing this review after a year and a half of our daughter going to AIL. We recently moved to San Diego and leaving AIL was the only difficult part of the move. We loved AIL and miss them dearly. They truly loved our daughter and they saw how special she is. She’s super outgoing and adventurous and they really brought that out in her.
We got art projects that Izzy made almost daily and she talked at home about her teachers and friends. She cried some mornings when we dropped her off but she’d go straight to one of the teachers for snuggles and was right at home.
AIL does so many activities with the kids and really gets them involved through play. They had weekend activities for the families as well like breakfast with Santa or moms night out and they’d stay open late to watch the kids. Being right at the entrance of the Metra station made the location perfectly convenient and their hours worked so well for us with a commute to the city. They are not a national chain so you don’t have that «chain feel» but they are big enough that you can trust they’re following policies and state regulations.
We were really blessed to have a place to take her, beginning as a newborn, where we trusted the directors and teachers completely and knew they always had her best interests at heart. I was never nervous to leave her there and it really was the place she grew up for her first 2 years.
When we told them we were moving, the teachers and directors were legitimately sad, as were we, to have to say see ya later. I bawled my eyes out as she went to every room and gave hugs to the teachers on her last day. We will always have a place in our hearts for AIL and its people and will continue to stay in touch.
We miss you all so much! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for taking such great care of our little love and helping her thrive.

My youngest daughter goes here and I cannot say enough great things about it. They are conveniently right next to the Rt. 59 Metra stop; they have an earlier start time than most; they understand that a majority of the parents work in the city, and those parents depend on a not so dependable train system, which means if it is running late they will take pity on you as long as you call and let them know.
The new things my daughter learns from this place is amazing. I honestly thought she wouldn’t advance as quickly as she has, but surprisingly enough she is. She has been going there since she was about 10 weeks old and is now 16 months old. Her class transition was easy and the activities they host for the parents and kids are very entertaining.
As we are searching for our new place to grow into we are making sure we can still be close to this establishment because of how much we love it and the people.

While we do not normally reply to the fabrications of disgruntled former employees posing as parents, we want to address a few things.
For over ten years, Adventures in Learning has strived to provide quality child care with an emphasis on education. We hire and retain only teachers who are highly qualified and show a commitment to the care and education of young children.
We provide a loving and caring environment for ALL children regardless of gender, race or religion. We have a highly diverse population among both our staff and the families we serve. The diversity in our school is one of the many reasons to choose Adventures in Learning for your child.
Our meal plan consists of a morning snack and lunch, both served with milk, as well as an afternoon snack served with juice. Our hot lunches are prepared and brought in each day by Quality Catering for Kids who has a nutritionist on staff that aids in preparing the nutritionally balanced menu we serve. Our staff is REQUIRED to serve each child at LEAST ONE serving of every item on the lunch menu each day. There is no limit placed on the number of servings offered.
We encourage any parent who is looking for a caring, educational environment for their child to stop in for a tour. We would be more than happy to put you in touch with current families who can speak to the kind of care we actually provide rather than the fabrications provided in the previous review.
