An amazing childcare center! They have done an incredible job caring for and teaching my daughter.

School for Amazing Kids in Helena is a top notch childcare facility. If you are looking for the perfect place with great people to take care of your children, this is the place. I have two girls that attend this school, 3yr old and 8 month old. I never question the care and love they receive at SFAK. My 3 yr old has learned so much in the few months we have been at SFAK and she has so much fun doing it. SFAK has been such a blessing to us.

One of the many things that I love about SFAK is that they offer Parents Night Out once a month. They open after hours so parents can have a date night. We don't have family here and don't trust anyone to watch our son so this was a big plus for us. We were nervous the first time we decided to do it even though he had been going to school there for awhile. He was so excited that he got to go back to school and play with friends again that night. He walked right in and just waved bye to us. That's one of the many things that shows me that my child loves SFAK! My son has been there for almost 4 years and we love it there!

I love SFAK, Helena! I have a 2 and 5 year old that go there. IT is wonderful to not have to worry about whether or not my kids are learning and being taken care of. I had always heard horror stories of employees at daycare mistreating children or at the very least not paying attention to them and sitting them in front of a tv. None of that applies to SFAK. They are truly the best. SFAK is so much more than a daycare. The students learn with hands-on activities and use technology to enhance their learning experience. They are taught respect for adults and peers as well as how to share and have patience. The staff is extremely easy to talk to and get ahold of with any possible concerns. The facilities are so clean that I don't worry about my children constantly being sick or catching something. I am so happy with my decision to send my children here!

I have had no other experience with a daycare like the one I have had at The School For Amazing Kids Helena. My son has attended this daycare for just about a year and he absolutely loves it! This daycare has so many programs to offer, and they teach common knowledge in such a fun way its not even like learning. Some of the fun things we love about SFAK is water play on Wednesday morning followed by Cona ice in the summer months when weather permits, the music program (that has tough us so many new songs that we love) and the amazing in school field trips that come to the classroom. Not to mention the Pre K program that is absolutely wonderful. I can always track my sons progress with the assessment reports his teacher sends home. Each and every day at School for Amazing Kids is a learning experience that is unforgettable. I could not have ask for a better daycare/school for my son to attend. I have been more than satisfied with School For Amazing Kids and the learning programs they offer.

We have had a wonderful experience with the School for Amazing Kids family of schools! Our child started at a different location and transferred to the Helena location because it was more convenient to our home.
We have found SFAK to have an excellent curriculum--even in the baby room! The employees are kind and professional and care about families as much as they do the children they care for. The administrators are organized, efficient, and compassionate, always erring on the side of treating you like a human being instead of a client. Our child is happy, well-adjusted, and a little "rotten" because of all the love she receives while she is in their care!

I'm excited that my daughter attends School for Amazing Kids in Helena. Each and every one of the staff members are pleasant. I don't have to worry about my daughter being at Amazing Kids when I'm at work because she doesn't cry when I drop her off and I can truly trust the staff to take great care of her. School for Amazing Kids also did a great job teaching my daughter how to use the potty. They started working with her at the age of 2. She is almost 3 and a professional at using the potty. Thank you School for Amazing Kids in Helena.

I highly recommend this school to anyone searching for childcare. I am very pleased with the atmosphere, teaching, care, and cleanliness! I love this school and so do my sons.

The School for Amazing Kids, Helena should rightfully be named the Amazing School for Kids! I have experienced child care and early childhood education, internationally; I have enrolled my kids collectively in Montessori and other highly rated private programs. I can relay without reservation; the experience I have with SFAK, Helena, is the best by far. This can be measured on a day to day basis. The lesson plans are well thought out and put together for parents review; evaluations done on the Pre-K students, in my opinion, are stellar. The kids are well above their peers to begin Kindergarten. I see this first hand and hear about it from several educators. Parents, do not overlook the SFAK, Helena, for child care and early educational development of your children, you will be glad you did. Mr. D. Long-Team Long

My husband and I had our first child in December 2015. We were thrilled to welcome our little boy but nervous about becoming new parents. Once the time came to look for childcare, we were scared to leave our little boy while we both worked. The School for Amazing Kids in Helena made the transition easier with going back to work. Our son has been taken care of while we work and has fun going each day. The director and teachers make him giggle and smile! We are able to see the teachers in the Infant 1 class LOVE the babies and make sure their well-being and safety are a top priority. The School for Amazing Kids in Helena is a GREAT place to bring your child!

Our child has attended Dayspring since she was 4 months old. We have been nothing but pleased.
Obviously we were very nervous at the start, but Dayspring has made the transition for my wife starting back to work perfect. The teachers have been so caring and will even let text us text them throughout the day to see how she is doing.

My husband and I couldn't ask for a better daycare. Everyone who works at Dayspring is fantastic! They are so attentive to our children. Our son started going here when he was around ten months old. He is now in the "two" year old class and loves his teachers and friends. The teachers do a wonderful job keeping him engaged in learning activities that are appropriate for his age and fun. We are amazed at how much he has progressed since he started going. Our daughter started going when she was eight weeks old and is now almost six months. The staff gives her all the cuddles and attention she needs. Dayspring is a great place! They even offer a free "parent night out" once per month.

We Love dayspring. It is crazy to think that with one year of schooling at this clean, organized and loving place my child has learned so much. ABC's and 123's are not all that they focus on. They do A LOT more! its wonderful

Great daycare for all ages of little ones! Our two kids have been at Dayspring for about a month and we love it. The kids really enjoy it. Our one year old is all smiles when you get there and when we pick her up. Our son loves the educational, yet fun, curriculum that really gets them prepared for Kindergarten. We love the fact that the staff is very friendly, kind, and attentive to the children. every teacher that we come into contact with in the classrooms or halls knows all the kids names. The school is focused on teaching the kids in a fun and interesting way. Our friends who had their kids their recommended them and after visiting Dayspring and a few other day cares the choice was easy!

Dayspring is the best place you would ever need in childcare! They have lesson plans starting in infant 1! I love the preciuos gifts they help your child make around all celebratory events (mother's day, father's day, charger ristmas;etc). they strive to provide excellent child care and shows in daily interactions with familes! ♡ it! Beats the competition hands down!

We love Dayspring!! The staff is excellent, very friendly and personable, they love my daughter so much and all the kids there like their own, I don't feel that bad going to work because I know that she's happy there and well taken care of. They are very good at keeping the parents involved and aware of what goes on in class each day. My daughter has learnes so much not just academically but values as well. I also love that it is Christian based, she learns about Jesus and memorizes verses. We are very grateful for all they do. It's an awesome school!

Our son has been part of the Dayspring family for four years. He absolutely loves the teachers and runs to give them hugs. Tina (Director) is great! The Teachers are attentive and loving. The extra-curricular activities are a plus. We have truly enjoyed being part of the Dayspring Family!
