Parent and grandparent comments about CDCLA include: “I work five minutes from the center. It’s amazing. I am always calm at work because I know my son is learning in a safe place.” (Natalie, parent); “You can tell that the teachers really care about my daughters. I do appreciate the center so much for that care, that love, that attention that they have given to my children.” (Nicole, parent); “This center has definitely helped out with us being able to work. Having my children here has allowed us to work.” (Jordan, parent); “The curriculum, the way the teachers care and work with the children, made us keep our grandson enrolled as long as possible. He learns more things here at the center than if we put him in TK.” (Lolita and Allen, grandparents); and “Me a ayudado mucho este programa, me da la libertad de seguir trabajando mientras que mi pequeña recibe un cuidado Seguro y Estimulante, lo recomiendo.” (Maria, parent).
