CLA is an excellent childcare company with great leadership and staff. Both of our children attended a CLA facility at some point in their early years.

The children are fed delicious meals, well cared for, have time outside and participate in great learning activities. The caregivers are so nice and truly care about each child.

Communication with parents is excellent and timely.

We love Creative Learning Academy! We didn't have a good experience at our last daycare so it was nice to see the people here at CLA be so caring, understanding, safety-oriented and accommodating. Our kid is very opinionated, especially for a 4-yr-old, but he won't stop talking about how much he loves his 'school', and Miss Kennedy! Thank you all!

My daughter has been there since 2021. I have nothing but great things to say about all the stuff. She was three months when she started going there. She’s learned so much from all the curriculum. She loves her teachers!

Taylor Thorpe

We are beyond impressed! Thank you for all the updates. It has helped me feel sooo connected to my precious baby! 💗 The service you provide is so incredible. Thank you for taking such good care of our bug!

I switched to this care from another facility and was so amazing and appreciative of how much this team cares and takes care of my littles ones. They do activities daily and give pictures of what’s happening - my 2 year now loves coming to ‘school’ and I know my newborn is in good hands. Thank you to the entire team for your hard work to make a awesome place for the littles

I absolutely love everyone at CLA. I was extremely nervous about leaving my kids but they have been great, my kids love it there. They maintain a respectful, open communication. I get regular updates and pictures. My kids have learned so much, I highly encourage people to check them out. You will not be disappointed.

I’ve been a part of CLA since my daughter was about 9 months old. The staff is wonderful and Jess is amazing! They are always responsive and open to discuss any questions or concerns I may have. I would recommend CLA to any family.

Our son has been going to CLA for almost month. We were very nervous about starting daycare particularly because our son is very young still. CLA has been truly wonderful and we could not be happier. It is clear that all employees love and care for the children, they engage the children and infants in stimulating activities throughout the day, make good meals, ensure the parents or caregiver is always up to date throughout the day of what is going on with their child via an app where everything is tracked and they are accommodating to parents and children’s needs. I completely trust my child in their care. They also promote what is best for the child and parent (ex: allowing me to come in and breastfeed at times) to ensure they support my relationship with my child. They upload pictures to their app and are very organized in how they relay information. I have not worked with many there yet as my son is relatively new; however, the teachers in his classroom are wonderful and incredibly knowledgeable! The administration is also fabulous- they are available via text throughout the day and personally take the time to get to know all of the children. I love CLA! Placing your child in someone else care everyday is a very difficult adjustment however I can successfully go to work and focus on my needs when my son is at CLA. I am very grateful for them and in just a short time they already feel like family!

As a new mom and with COVID not going away, I can say I have been a little over protective of my baby. Because of this, I waited to look for a child care that could meet my family's needs as I was also fortunate to be able to work from home for a while but recently got the news that I have to get back into the office in a month and have found it so hard to find a place with good qualities. Most child care places seem to be at full capacity in their infant area and panic has taken over me considering the ones that do have availability, do not meet our needs.
As I have been looking around and calling different places, I came across Creative Learning Academy and was able to get in touch with Ms Val who is the center director. Even though she told me there is no space for my baby at the location needed, she was super helpful and very responsive to all of my questions. She has given me the peace of mind that I have been seeking and never once did I feel rushed getting answers from her even when she knew I would not be able to enroll at her center. I asked for a quick virtual tour out of curiosity and she was able to jump in right away, showed me around and talked to me about all the things going on at Creative Learning Academy. From what I could see, all the teachers were very engaged with the children and everyone seemed happy to be there both teachers and children. Also, the facility was very clean.
Over all, I was very happy and super grateful to come across Ms Val. She really does a great job at helping you become comfortable during this unprecedented times and truly gives you peace of mind that your children will be well taken care of and loved while attending child care. I really wish she would have had an available spot for my baby as now it might be a little harder to find another care giver with such high standards.
If you are looking for a place for your little one, THIS is the place!

Creative learning academy is awesome. The staff is professional and they do their best to teach the little ones new things. My daughter really enjoys going here for daycare.

Sarah Nancy Hensley

My 3.5 year old son goes here and we love it. His teacher is amazing and they always have fun activities and curriculum for the kids. My son is usually shy and had a slight speech delay and he has improved so much since starting here!

Cori Goddard

My child has been attending CLA since she was 3 months' old, and we've always felt that she is really loved and cared for there. We get a little jealous because she seems to like her teachers better than us sometimes. 😉 We appreciate the great relationships the teachers and administration have built with the kids, as well as us parents. CLA has been a great place for us.

Corinne Nelson

Both my children have attended this daycare. However, when my daughter was there it was a different owner. When Jessica took over things improved for the better!!!! They do such a great job taking care of my son. He is opinionated and stubborn and they have been able to work with him and help him learn and grow!!!

Dani Thompson

BEST Day care you can find in Utah. Jess and all of the teachers are so amazing with all of the children. They truly care for all of them. I have had very bad experiences with past day cares, so being at Creative Learning with people I can trust my child with(some that have even been there since they opened) is an amazing feeling. My child has learned so much and LOVES going to "School" everyday. Words can't express how happy I am with the care my son receives. And how much he is growing because of dedication Jess and her staff put in every single day. Don't pass this day care up!

Amanda Self

So glad I found this place! My son has attended here for over a year. I feel completely comfortable taking him to CLA. I know he is in good hands!

My family is having the best experience at CLA. They are kind, compassionate, thoughtful and put the kids' needs first. My son has become more social, verbal, and is constantly learning and stimulated. I am impressed by their curriculum and attention to detail. Each staff member is kind, friendly, and caring.

Amanda Taylor

We have been so impressed with Creative Learning Academy! Everyone is so kind and they go above and beyond to make not only our child feel comfortable and happy to go but have been so great about updating parents about how their child is doing throughout the day, which brings so much comfort. We were so hesitant and nervous to send our baby to daycare but we are so grateful we found Creative Learning Academy. The owners are phenomenal and even though they have different locations and so many kids attending, they make it a point to know each kids name. The director at Murray, Liz, has been amazing to work with. She has been so collaborative and helpful during this transition into daycare. My son loves his teachers, Claudia and Carmen, and it’s so comforting knowing he is going somewhere where he is loved and cared for. We love Creative Learning Academy!!

Ian Boss

Very impressed with the admin staff, teachers, and curriculum at Creative Learning. Everyone is friendly and helpful and the great communication is much appreciated.

Melissa Stark

My two kids (4 and 1.5) have been going to Creative Learning Academy for about 7 months. The teachers are informative, loving, and just overall amazing. The communication with staff is better than I could ever have expected.

I love the Brightwheel App which keeps us informed about everything our kids are doing throughout the day. The App shows us the daily and monthly curriculum. The pictures and videos of the kids every day is of course the best part! I get to see my kids learning and playing with their news friends and see how the teachers are interacting with the kids.

My kids love going to, "school." You can feel that the teachers truly love my kids too.

If you are looking for quality daycare where kids are encouraged to learn and grow, you couldn't ask for better than Creative Learning Academy!

Megan Sullivan

We have had our children at each Creative Learning Academy of Utah Location (awaiting availability at the main county location) and at each location, we had a wonderful experience. The teachers develop a strong bond with each child and are reliable. I don’t feel guilt when I drop the kids off as they are happy to go. Each day I know they spend time playing, learning at their developmental level, reading, singing, dancing, creating, eating nutritiously, and are active. The teachers have even guided me through many issues through the years from pumping and bottle feeding to weaning, sharing, and potty training. I couldn’t be happier with this daycare!

Tim Carter

Creative Learning is the only childcare/preschool I would ever take my children to. They are clean, professional, fantastic with kids and detail obsessed. Their curriculum is engaging fun and promotes creativity. Every person I have encountered at each one of their locations has been wonderful and helpful. The owner truly cares and pours her heart into every aspect of her schools. I recommend Creative Learning Academy to everyone.

Jill

I have been looking for a great preschool/daycare and we found it! We get tons of pictures each day, updates throughout the day, and they provide good healthy food. The teachers are so cute with the kids and my daughter loves going to “school” everyday.

James McMenamin

You are going to be hard pressed to find a better daycare provider for your children than at CLA. My 4 year old has been enrolled since she was 6 months old and now have a 6 month old son also attending. Every level of your child's care is extremely thought out and they are in very very good hands.
Our daughter loves going and even after we moved I still drive out of my way to keep her enrolled at CLA. Infant, 2 year old, toddler, and pre-k have all been nothing short of exceptional. Jessica, Val, Akram, Christine, Yanni, Maria, Vivian, Carmina, And Ayesha all know they are doing and are going to take great care of your children. I have peace of mind every single day when i drop them off knowing how well they are cared for. The communication is top notch and you will never be in the dark regarding anything involving your kiddos. I hope this review helps. I considered moving our daughter out once we moved but after evaluating all options available I am more than happy to drive 10 miles each way out of my way for them to be here. Well worth it.

M. Salcedo

This is the best daycare for your kids. They have fantastic teachers who love and appreciate what they do. They have an amazing menu compared to other daycares I’ve seen. The kids are always excited and filled with joy when they get there. I enjoy this daycare and highly recommend it.

J. Allawos

I absolutely love the staffing here, most of all Jessica Lloyd, she is just very easy going, personable and always haa a smile! Thank you for being spectacular at your career, and I will make sure to recommend everyone to you guys

R. Lara

My wife and I love this place. The director and all the teacher are genuinely caring. Our daughter loves it, she started here only few months old, now she is 2 years +old and still attending. Highly recommended if you are looking for trustworthy childcare.

Heather

This place is awesome. My daughter loves her teachers and the directors are phenomenal.

Tiffany Abdullah

I am so grateful we found a daycare where our child is happy. It gives me a great sense of peace knowing he's being cared for by people who actually care for him. The teachers have always been willing to take time out to tell me how my son did that day, and share cute stories about him. He leaves daycare feeling happy, and even though I hate to admit it, some weekends he actually ASKS to go to daycare. During nap time I come in and regularly find someone rubbing his back to help him sleep. I think the staff and facility are top notch! Thank you so much for giving me the peace of mind that my son is safe and well cared for!

T. Erickson

There are some awesome things going on at Creative Leanring Academy. My son is so excited to get in the classroom play with all the fun stuff that he barely bats an eye when I drop him off. It’s great to know that your kids are constantly learning and playing and having such a quality experience

Abigail Barry

Creative Learning Academy of Utah has high caliber teachers and staff. They are reliable and highly responsive to any and all communication, listen to our concerns, and are knowledgeable about what’s best for kids. The teachers are warm, friendly, and truly love their students. In addition to a loving and friendly atmosphere, our 17 month old child’s language and social development is increasing at a rapid rate—her vocabulary includes both Spanish and English words, she knows how to clean up, and eats with utensils which they reinforce at meal times. I have recommended CLA to multiple friends and will continue to do so. We love that our child runs towards her teachers with open arms and a huge smile every morning, and we feel lucky to have CLA as part of our village.

My 4 year old is so happy here!! Miss Deb and Miss Elyse cherish him and it makes me feel so safe leaving him in their care 💜

Jill

My daughter has been coming here since they opened this location about a year ago. We have loved the staff/teachers and our almost 3 year old is happy and taken care of while she’s there.

Ms. Vero and Ms. Daisy (and all the others who help in their classrooms), thank you!

Alfredo Rumbos

(Translated by Google) As a father I am very grateful for all the attention and care for my son Pedro Fernando, at CLA West Valley. It is pertinent to mention that every day I am connected with my son because they do all the daily posts about his activities (academic assignments, food and games), I see all the photos and I know he is enjoying it. I 100% recommend CLA West Valley because I feel extremely calm about the care they provide, all the teachers are excellent and super attentive... I will always be grateful to you for your excellent services! Thank you so much!

Tango Rango

My kids have been going here for more than a year and we have never had any problems.
The staff is very friendly and they always have taken really good care of my kids.
We love CLA.

Jenn Anderson

This is an amazing daycare. My daughter loves it here and the staff is wonderful. They have made some great changes by remodeling the inside and out and the mobile app keeps you updated on what your child is doing during the day. I couldn't be happier.

Michelle Blue

Thank you for taking such good care of our daughter! We have never found more dedicated, gracious, and kind teachers and staff. We are so grateful to all of you!

Jennifer Roghaar

My 3 (almost 4) year old has been going to Creative Learning Academy since he was 2 months old, and I have a 7 month old who also started attending a few months ago. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about CLA. The staff and teachers are incredibly kind and loving to my children. They schedule activities that are not only fun, but are educational and beneficial to my children’s growth. As a full time working mom it brings me great comfort knowing my children are in such great hands. My kids enjoy being there too, which makes dropping off in the morning so much easier! We love CLA!

Scott Humphrey

This location of Creative Learning Academy is amazing! Each class from infant to preschool has focused curriculum and learning content. It feels like our children have had individual attention the entire way. The teachers are well trained and love each child! There is no hesitation for me or my children at drop off - they really enjoy Creative Learning.

Elizabeth Jackson

Seriously can’t speak highly enough of CLA. The owners to the staff to the facility are all wonderful. There is nothing better than dropping off my child everyday and knowing they will be so well cared for, emotionally, physically and mentally. My daughter has learned so much and loves to go to the center. CLA HAS 100% made our life so much better. Thank you CLA!!

Linsey Miller

Creative Learning Academy of Utah has been great for my children. The staff are so caring and wonderful. My children learn so much and I know they are in good hands while I am at work. I love the tools they use to communicate and keep parents informed about what is going on throughout the day from meals, naps, etc. to what they are learning. I enjoy seeing photos of them engaged in learning and playing. I am grateful my children have been able to attend Creative Learning Academy of Utah.

Marta Szulik

CLA is a really great place for kids. It is a huge place so kids have lot of space to play around. It has amazing curriculum and provides safe, truly diverse and inclusive environment. CLA has fantastic and experienced teachers who are caring, very nice and dedicated. They are always willing to talk to parents about their kids, they keep communicating and are responsive to any recommendations. All kids are very happy to be there, they greet their teachers every morning with huge smile 🙂 I highly recommend this place !!

I've sadly been to my fair share of child care locations, in and out of home. This place has by far exceeded my expectations. The tour was amazing and now my son is having a great day, playing and learning and actually taking his nap instead of crying because he wants to come home. As a parent, nothing is more relieving then knowing your kid is finally comfortable and doesn't feel scared or alone. Thank you CLA. Coming to you is the best decision I could've made.

Jeanie Delaney

Creative Learning Academy of Utah is a wonderful day care center! I cannot begin to express how grateful my husband and I were to find such a wonderful day care center for our son. As working professionals, we needed to find a reliable day care center that we could trust to care for our son full-time. We had made arrangements at a different day care center prior to coming to Creative Learning Academy, but we had a horrible experience with the other center and found ourselves in an emergent need for childcare. Miss Jessica, the owner of Creative Learning Academy, was able to get our son in the very next day – for which we are extremely grateful! Miss Jessica has many years of experience operating a day care center, and it shows! The teachers are all trained in child development and actively employ best practices with each child. Our son’s current teacher, Miss Chalsey is AMAZING! She is so patient and it really seems like she loves our son as much as we do! The camera system at Creative Learning Academy is great! It allows us to check in on our son whenever we would like. We think the food is also great! It is awesome that the food is included in the price! Several of the other day care centers we researched did not include any food, and they even cost more than Creative Learning Academy! A great variety of foods is offered throughout the various meals each week and we think the dinner-time snack is great because our son isn’t starving when we pick him up, and it allows me enough time to get some things done before making dinner when we get home. We feel that the portion sizes are perfect! Last, but certainly not least, we were just notified that Creative Learning Academy will be offering the Early Headstart Curriculum in their 2 year old classroom. This is an amazing curriculum and we are very excited that our son with have the opportunity to benefit from it when he moves up into the 2-year old classroom.

Kelly Morris

My granddaughter absolutely loves it!! She always asks, "is there school tomorrow!?!" She's so excited to go I barely get the car in park and she's out the door! ♡
