Welcome to Discovery Days Childcare in Franklin, WI

​Discovery Days offers a childcare program that focuses on the children and their individual needs.  We follow the Wisconsin Model for Early Learning Standards which fosters social and academic learning. We take pride in the service we provide and look forward to making a difference in the life of your family!

Why Discovery Days Preschool is Your Best Choice

We have been providing quality early childhood education and care to families since 2000. We believe that a positive early childhood experience is crucial to a child’s development. Our programs are designed to help children learn at their own pace. Group activities are designed with the developmental needs of each age group in mind. A good deal of time is allotted for children to explore the various interest centers in their classroom.

Providing a program that fosters early educational learning, positive social interaction and working to achieve age appropriate milestones helps prepare our children for their future.

We provide a nurturing and socially stimulating environment for children according to their age and individuality. We believe childhood is the beginning of many life adventures, and we provide the care that makes the difference.

At Discovery Days we understand that children learn in a variety of ways. As much as they can learn within our walls, they’ll learn an equal amount through their personal experience outside of our walls, in the community.

Ascend Curriculum

Our Ascend Curriculum develops academic, physical, emotional, and creative skills and features activities in subjects such as Cultural Understanding, Baby Signs, Literacy, Mathematics, and Technology. We find that children learn best when activities are geared towards their interests. Our teachers are encouraged to individualize activities and engage in small group instruction so they can better respond to the needs and interests of each child. Even the youngest children in the infants program can benefit from the Ascend Curriculum.

School Director

I graduated in 2022 from NWTC with an associate degree in early childhood education. I began working at Cadence Academy in New Berlin as an infant teacher in 2018 . I was promoted to the Assistant Director position in 2023.  I love Cadence Academy Preschool and I look forward to growing with this company. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my husband Jack, our two daughters, Emma (3), Saylor (2), and a baby boy arriving February 2025.

We’ve been with Discovery Days for two years now, and our experience has been nothing short of wonderful. From day one, the staff has shown such warmth, professionalism, and genuine care for our child. It's clear that this is more than just a job to them, they truly love what they do. Over the years, there have been a few changes in management and teachers, which is natural in any childcare setting. What stood out to us is how well the transitions have been handled. The leadership team is always proactive, communicative, and thoughtful when these changes occur. Our child has grown so much socially, emotionally, and intellectually thanks to the nurturing and engaging atmosphere. They come home happy and clearly feel safe and loved at daycare. We’re beyond grateful for Discovery Days to be part of our "village". Highly recommend them to any parent looking for a dependable, loving daycare.

Our son has been at Discovery Kids Daycare for over a year, and we've had a great experience overall. As a first-time mom, I was really nervous about starting daycare—but the teachers made the transition so much easier. From the beginning, Ms. Andrea (the first director we met) was incredibly kind and welcoming when she gave us our initial tour. She made a great first impression and is missed. Since then, Miss Kristin has stepped in as the new director and has been kind-she’s always available and great with communication, which we really appreciate. We’ve had wonderful experiences with all of our son’s teachers: Ms. Luz, Ms. Mandola, Ms. Alex, Ms. Kennedy, and Ms. Danielle have all been so caring, and genuinely invest in the kids. It’s clear they build strong relationships not just with the children, but with us, the parents as well, which means so much. While there has been some turnover in directors and a few staff changes, the core team has stayed strong, and our son has truly thrived here. Finding a daycare you can trust is never easy, but we’re incredibly lucky to have found that at Discovery Kids. We also love that they send daily updates with photos—it always makes our day! Highly recommend for any parents looking for a caring environment for their child!

I highly recommend Discovery Days. The teachers and staff are excellent in communicating with us. We loved seeing the pictures each day of the fun activities going on in the classroom. It was great to see all of the developmental activities the children participate in such as fun art projects, listening to stories, and sensory play. The staff truly goes above and beyond. We enjoyed every day of our experience at this center!
