If you are looking for MORE than just a daycare, look no further than Crème de la Crème McKinney!
From our very first tour, I knew there was something different about this school. Mrs. Bridget, the director, has been AAAMMMAAAZZZIIINNNGGG! Her attention to detail and the way she genuinely cares for the families who walk through those doors is beyond exceptional.
During our initial tour, this was the first school where I felt like someone was intentionally giving attention to BOTH the parents and the child. Mrs. Bridget didn’t just show us around and talk to us—she made sure my daughter was included in the experience. She allowed her to explore at her own comfort level, interacted with her, and made her feel safe and comfortable in a completely new environment. As a parent, that meant EVERYTHING to me.
And then came her first day… 🥹
When my daughter walked through the doors, she literally said, “WOWWWW!” 😂 She had the BIGGEST smile on her face while looking around, especially at all of the flowers on the ceiling. That moment alone reassured me that we had made the right choice.
Her teacher, Ms. Arielle, is incredibly sweet, and honestly, so is every staff member we have encountered. It truly feels like a family affair here. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, clean, bright, and exciting for the children. The name “Crème de la Crème” absolutely lives up to the environment they have created.
One of my FAVORITE things, though, is how intentional they are with the children’s activities. My daughter isn’t simply playing just to play. There is a lesson, purpose, skill, or experience behind what they are doing. They are learning while having FUN—and that is exactly what I wanted for her.
Spanish classes, cooking classes, an indoor basketball court, a bowling alley, an indoor dance/jam room, beautiful learning spaces, and a CLEAN, covered outdoor playground?! They have truly thought about the entire experience for these children.
And it’s even the little things that I notice. My daughter actually comes home looking the way she did when I dropped her off! 😂 Her clothes aren’t completely destroyed or unbelievably dirty. That may seem small to some people, but as a parent, you notice those details. And here, THEY notice the details too.
We haven’t been here long, and I can already see a difference in my daughter. That is probably the most exciting part for me. I’m looking forward to watching her continue to grow, learn, explore, excel, and be challenged beyond what I even imagined for her at this age.
Leaving a childcare center where your child has been and starting somewhere new can be emotional, but Crème de la Crème has made this transition feel exciting instead of scary. I don’t feel like I am simply dropping my daughter off at daycare—I feel like I am dropping her off somewhere that is intentionally pouring into her development.
Mrs. Bridget, Ms. Arielle, and the entire Crème de la Crème McKinney team—THANK YOU for making our family feel welcomed, seen, and cared for from day one. ❤️
If you’re a parent looking for somewhere that offers more than childcare—somewhere your child can learn, explore, be challenged, have incredible experiences, and genuinely LOVE walking through the door—GO TAKE THE TOUR.
My baby said “WOWWWW” on Day 1, and honestly… Mama did too. 😂❤️
We have had such a wonderful experience with the Creme School of McKinney. From the very beginning, the staff made our family feel welcomed, supported, and cared for.
Bridget, the Executive Director, along with Megan and Zoe, have always been amazing. They are kind, responsive, genuine, and truly care about the children and families at the school.
A very special thank you to Ms. Mari, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Laura, and Ms. Arielle. The love and care they have shown my kids has meant more to me than I can put into words. Knowing my child was with teachers who made them feel safe, special, and genuinely loved gave me so much peace of mind.
I anm incredibly grateful for the memories, growth, and relationships we have made here. Crème McKinney will always hold a special place in our hearts.
Five stars simply doesn’t feel like enough!!
