As a working mom, it means everything to know my kids are in loving hands, and Cadence has always made us feel like family. We tried another daycare in the past, and the difference was huge. At Cadence, our kids were truly cared for, loved, and taught good manners and important life values. Both of my kids attended, and my oldest still has wonderful memories there. During a difficult time with our jobs, they showed us so much kindness and understanding without hesitation. We are beyond grateful for the love, honesty, and care they have always shown our family. I highly recommend Cadence to any parent looking for a place where their children will truly be loved and cared for.

We love Cadnece Academy so much! Our daughter has been coming since she was six months old and she LOVES coming to school. There are times I pick her up and she just wants to keep playing instead of going home. The staff in incredible and so kind. My daughter loves and trusts them and even asks about then at home. Cadence has been so good for my daughter and I feel so at peace knowing she's somewhere where she's safe and loved while my husband and I work!

This daycare has truly been a second home for our family, and it’s hard to put into words just how much they mean to us. Every single staff member goes above and beyond for the kids—not just caring for them, but genuinely loving them. The ladies here are so warm, friendly, and personable that we feel thay are my sons “moms away from home.” The director is absolutely incredible—so understanding, supportive, and always willing to go the extra mile for families. And I have to give a special shoutout to the chef, who my son completely adores. She doesn’t just make amazing meals—she takes the time to connect with the kids. If he’s ever having a tough moment, she’ll come get him, comfort him, and somehow always manages to turn his day around. That kind of care is rare. There’s a true family atmosphere here that you can feel the moment you walk in. It’s not just a daycare—it’s a community filled with people who genuinely care. We are moving, and saying goodbye has been so emotional. If I could pack up this entire team and take them with us, I would in a heartbeat. We are so grateful for everything they’ve done for our son and our family. I cannot recommend this place enough. 💛

My kids have been going to Cadence for the past 2.5+ years. It’s amazing not having to worry about where your kids are spending so much of their time - the teachers are amazing and genuinely care. They know so much about your kid it’s incredible. I also appreciate the flexibility and hours of the school.
