We were able to go to Litl Scholars this summer for my 7 and 8 year olds. They had so much fun! They would even get mad if we picked them up early because they were in the middle of something AMAZING. They are safe and clean and even better they do field trips every week. Mrs Crawford their teacher is kind. patient and imaginative. They LOVED her. We can not wait to go back.

The thing I love about Litl Scholars is that it is ALWAYS improving. It is a wonderful fun and loving place as it is but they are always searching for areas where they can make the center better and that is a quality that nobody can deny the importance of. My daughter started in the infant room and ended in the older twos room and it brought me so much joy to see how much the teachers cared about her and went out of their way to build a relationship with her. I highly recommend this place to everyone and I am confident that your child will get the right love and attention they deserve.

I have now had my son at Lit’l Scholars for 3 years and I am still as pleased as the day we started. Putting your child in daycare is a scary thing for a mom with an infant however there were two reasons I chose this place. The first being the cost and the second being the number of staff they have. I like the fact that there are eyes everywhere watching everyone. This has made me feel much better about leaving my infant In their hands. As the years have gone on I love how friendly everyone is. Everyone at Lit’l Scholars genuinely cares about my little one along with all the other children. I love that I can talked to them about my struggles with a stubborn boy and they help with ideas to break habits and help reward his good behavior and the sweetest part about all of this is they help being proactive and take part in the rewarding. Some even with their own snacks from home. Thank you for all that you do for us!

I absolutely adore this place! The teachers have been so supportive of me and my kids. Weve had a lot going on in our lives and they have checked in on me and my kids daily. It makes me feel so good to know they care. If I ever have a concern, as any parent will, the management addresses it with me and makes sure it is resolved. Their new menu is amazing!

I love all of the staff here. My son has been attending Lit’l scholars in salt lake for three years now and I am on a waiting list to get my infant son into the center as well. The facility is older and you can see some wear but the staff keep it clean and they keep up with repairs. He just started their preschool program and we had his first parent-teacher conference. They did an assessment with him as a starting point and will test him again throughout the year. I am excited to see his progress.

We started at Litl Scholars when my daughter was just 11 weeks old. As a new mom, I was really worried about leaving her with anyone but it has been a great experience and the staff is amazing. The ladies in the infant room are wonderful - they have gotten her on a regular nap schedule and are teaching her to eat solids. Every time I pick my daughter up she is either playing happily or one of the teachers is holding her. I have no doubt that she gets the care she needs throughout the day. On the whole, our daycare experience has been overwhelmingly positive.

We only did a walk through on this place and I quickly realized my son would not be attending. We walked in on staff scolding a 3-4 year old for having a pee accident. The lead person who started the tour gave me the impression my child would be neglected. Once we got to the toddler area and toddler outside play area I realized this place should be 100% restaffed or shut down. Minus a few teachers this place gave me the creeps. The children are put in a concrete caged area with no play equipment 2 times a day for 15 min. The small rooms they are confined to and the lack of educational head start was very underwhelming. Dont waste your time. Cheap is not worth it. Just a little more money spent will get you dancing moose monissisary or challenger programs.

My daughter has been going here for over 2 years now and she loves it. She is now participating in the preschool and she is learning so much. My favorite part is that her teachers recognize her progress and challenge her outside of the normal curriculum to keep her engaged. All of the teachers and directors know kids outside of their class and are always warm and friendly. My accident prone child is always attended. I get reports on every scratch and bruise, and the report matches the story from my daughter. We will continue to use Litl Scholars as an after school and summer program when my daughter starts kindergarten. Ive been very happy from the wobblers, to the toddlers to the twos (who patiently took on potty training with her) and now the preschool.

Weve had our daughter in this center for almost five years, starting when she was just 4 months. Its been a great experience. Like all things in life, our experience was not always perfect, but whenever we have brought up concerns they have been addressed professionally. The owner of the centers is physically present and he knows most of the childrens names. My daughter loves her teachers, and most teachers have kept in touch with us even after my daughter left their classroom or the teacher has left the center. Turnover is an issue, but the primary caregivers in each of her classrooms since she was 20 months old are still at the center. We have friends who use other day-care providers and they seem to have the same issues at times as us, but they pay much more money. Id recommend this care provider to anyone looking for a safe, loving environment for your child.

Lil scholars has been wonderful. My 3 and 4 year olds have been attending just over a year. They love school and their teachers and friends, this is a large facility but all the staff know the students well. My children have learned lots getting prepped for kindergarten, they are happy and well cared for here, and when it is time to go to kindergarten lil scholars has a before and after school program that buses them their school which is wonderful for me since i work 10-12 hour days. Ive loved this place, so have children, I highly recommend it

Update: My son has been going to this daycare center for over 4 years now. Weve had ups and downs in our personal life and the staff has always been helpful in helping us deal with these when they cross over to daycare. They are very supportive and willing to make adjustments as needed. My son has and continues to struggle with interpersonal relationships and the staff has worked with us on trying to get these things under control. I have moved out of the area for this daycare and kept him at this facility because the staff cares about my son as much as I do and show it in the way they help him and me. I trust them with my child completely. I cant imagine ever going to a different daycare.The security at this facility is nice and helps keep your mind at ease. They have never given my son to someone not on the list and when someone new does show up they always check the ID of that person. You need a security code to get in the building and a release button to get out that is high enough on the wall that little ones cant run out without adult help.They pick up and drop off to quite a few schools in the area which makes things so much easier for the working parent. My son often finishes his homework at Litl Scholars with the help of the teachers as needed. Hes excited to come home with time to play instead of having to do homework at a late hour.They offer good meals and snacks. I am always confident my son is getting the best nutrition possible. The cook always makes sure the kids are fed. There have been times Ive picked up my son at snack time and she makes his snack portable so he can take it with him.The summer program at Litl Scholars is amazing. My son has at least one field trip every week, sometimes two. They spend a week focused on one topic and activities are based on those topics. Some past topics have been dinosaurs and space. They use a local rec centers pool and go to a local park on a regular basis. My son has learned so much from these trips. The best part? There is no extra cost for these programs!At the beginning of the last school year the director organized a Back to School Fundraiser to make sure every child went to school with the things they needed like clothes, shoes, backpacks and various school supplies. They collected donations and matched them with the requests of the students. It was kept within the network of the clients at Litl Scholars and such a wonderful and helpful program. Theyve done similiar things around the holidays.A photographer comes twice a year and takes the most amazing pictures at a very discounted rate. I look forward to her visits and so does my son.There have been times when I worried about the turnover at Litl Scholars but the main teachers are the generally the same and they help the children get used to a new personality. The teachers are very good and trained in the proper techniques for helping children learn and grow.In short, I will keep my son in this daycare until he no longer needs before and after school care, regardless of where in the valley we live. They are wonderful people. I highly recommend them to everyone I know.

You know its bad when you run into an old ataff member and you tell them you took your child out if this school and they tell you good I dont blame you. I definitely should have followed my instincts with this place. I only had my child in this place for a under two months it was so bad. She always came home with peed in clothes and told me the teachers wouldnt take her potty. The breakfast teacher was so rude and angry with the kids in the mornings and made it so uncomfortable every drop off. Every time my child would have a scrap or awful scratch i would ask what happened and every time the teacher would tell me Im I dont know the child came into school like that! Which was Absolutely false and I could never get an answer or a accident report. Finally the straw the broke the camels back is when she came home with a blood shot bruised eye and huge scratch under her eye. Again when I asked what had happened they have me the same response. Please please please follow your gut. I highly recommend checking our ABC new beginnings! Where your child is cared for and all needs are attended too.

Litl Scholars is a place where my children can call my home away from home. My children love attending school there. It is a very large school where all children love to learn and are loved and cared for very much. Miss Melissa is always very happy to see all of us each morning. My childrens teachers (Miss Kristine..Miss Kershawna...Miss Ashley...Miss Bambi) show a lot of love and happiness towards my children. There are always a lot of fun activities going on. The meals that are provided are very well balanced (my children would rather eat there than at home). They say Miss Dallas is a goodder cook. The school is always very clean, bright and cheery. My school age child is looking forward to all of the fun summer camp activities he will be going on.. Before choosing Litl Scholars I checked out several others in the area and was very discouraged about what I saw. Not one of them were as good/excellent as Litl Scholars. If you want a very loving...happy...positive school for your child then Litl Scholars is the place to be!!!

I am a staff member/ teacher at Litl Scholars, but for a year and a half before being hired on I was just a parent who needed a safe, clean, welcoming, evironment for my daughter.Before Litl Scholars my daughter went to a different child care center that quickley started to loose its quality in care. Not just the staff but the owners who were always onsite, I started to feel they were all about money, and were never willing to work with me on any concerns I may have had. They always had excuse, or told me how it should be.My daughter has grown very attached to Litl Scholars, that most of the time when its time to go home I have to drag her out cause shes enjoying herself so much. My daughter and I love spending our days in this loving place and couldnt imagine being anywhere else at this time in our lives.
