We started at YBR a year and a half ago and have been entirely thrilled with the care, development, and learning of our child. Our teachers know our child well and make plans for his needs every day. He loves his time at YBR and we’d recommend it to anyone!

YBR has been a great transition for my son from an in home daycare to a center. He loves the friends he has made and he loves his teachers. The introduction to Spanish is great and he is excited to take it further to a Spanish immersion kindergarten later this year. The new management has definitely made a huge difference and I am very happy with his care!

My 5yo daughter, Mia, started attending Pre-K at YBR in Maple Grove last July 2019 when she was 4. I can’t say enough about the team of caring individuals that teach and take care of my daughter Mia. Mia is very smart and has big emotions that she often struggles with behaviorally. The staff at YBR, Ms. Meagan, Ms. Nicole, Ms. Kayla, have really helped my daughter to deal with her emotions in a kind and caring way and offer support to my husband and I when needed. The staff use up to date gentle childhood techniques along with positive reinforcement. The staff are also great with communication. I am always up to date about any concerns or victories regarding Mia. The daily connect is also a huge bonus that my husband and I enjoy. We always know what she is up to! She has so much fun with all the activities she gets to do and all the fun things she gets to learn. Because of this genuine care from her teachers and support staff I have seen Mia grow emotionally and developmentally in all the ways I would hope for. I would recommend YBR to anyone looking for something more for their preschoolers or Pre-K'ers.

My son Wyatt has been attending Yellowbrick Road Minnetonka for 2 1/2 years! He enjoys going to daycare everyday! He loves all of his teachers and always has a blast when he is there. I was very impressed with how much he has learned while being there. He's even been taught Spanish and can recite the alphabet in Spanish! Yellowbrick has been so helpful with my son and with all his bus transfers to and from his preschool. I really appreciate all that they do for my son and would recommend Yellowbrick Road to anyone! :)

Our son has been going to YBR in Maple Grove for the last year & a half and he loves it (& so do we). The director, Meagan, is fantastic & so friendly! She has worked hard to make the center what it is today. The teachers, specifically, Pre-K are THE.BEST! Every day, our son goes to give his teachers a hug when he arrives. They are so caring & love the children like their own. I've been super impressed with the things our son has been learning - spanish counting, holidays, yoga, fun songs, etc. Additionally, it's so easy to communicate with the teachers through Daily Connect. Responses are always super quick! They do a great job of informing the parents at pick up on how their child's day was. Our son is heading off to Kindergarten in the fall and he is so ready, thanks to the teachers at YBR Maple Grove.

Miss Tricia is one of the warmest, most genuine hearts and we were so blessed as new parents to have her care for Avery the way that she did starting at 6 months old. So much attention, kindness, and the helpful tips were really needed as we navigated this uncharted territory.

Our son has been going to YBR for almost two years and now his baby brother is tagging alone. The staff is great, everyone knows the kids names and personalities. Plus there are lots of male teachers, which the boys love.

My son has been going to the Minnetonka location since 2018. He enjoys the teachers, learning Spanish, and having new friends to play with outside of the school. This school has gotten better and better since we have been there due to the new management and we appreciate that! They are doing what they can to make it the best experience possible for my child.

We have been a part of the YBR family since 2016. My children absolutely love going. It truly means something when they pull up to school and say "I love my teacher" it gives myself peace of mind knowing my kids are feeling safe and secure and LOVED all while learning. I am so happy to have chose YBR.
