    We have been attending Little Endeavors for almost 6 years now with our 2 children, starting in the baby rooms all the way up thru preschool. We feel like the people at LE care for our children like they're own. The teachers have taken the time to know our kids and we appreciate the communication at pickup/drop off, thru the app, and in emails.

    Our family has been at Little Endeavors for 5 years and couldn’t be more pleased with the current leadership and staff. Our daughters are in three different classrooms and the quality of teachers is consistent from infant-pre-k. Each day they share new things they are learning and come home with such fun and creative projects. The staff treats them like family and goes above and beyond to make them feel special and loved. They really take the time to know each child to build on their strengths or give extra support on tough days. Our friends and family even comment how rare it is to find a center with teachers that invest so much into their kiddos. I trust I’m informed of any needs while they are there and feel comfortable reaching out myself. Most importantly, our kids and happy and seeing them thrive is invaluable.

    When I originally enrolled my daughters to LE my then 2.5 year old had been diagnosed with global delays. We were doing 30+ therapy appointments every month for the past year and was seeing very slow progress. Since she has been enrolled we have seen leaps and bounds in her development. From only speaking words without much correlation to now having conversations with us in just a short 5 months. From not being able to sit for any period of time to now being able to sit and enjoy story time and crafts. Ms. Journey, Ms. Katie, Madi, Randi, and Dezah have shown my girls so much kindness, immense patience, and a love of learning. I truly appreciate Little Endeavors and so glad I got my girls enrolled here.

    We are more than happy with the staff, the care and the kids at Little Endeavors. We feel fortunate to have such a great place that we can trust. We have 3 kids and have been through numerous daycares. Luckily, we found this center when we moved to Ankeny 4 years ago. This daycare is hands down the most organized and well ran of any daycare we have been to. When reading through the negative posts, I was saddened for the center and staff as this is not at all an accurate representation of the place our kids love.
