About
Happy Hollow Learning Center offers weekly field trips, playground fun, water days, cooking activities, group games, and “Projects of the day.” The program describes itself as more than just a daycare and offers unique classes for infants through school-age children. The center states that it is a safe place for children to learn and grow.
• Ages: 6 weeks–12 years old
• Schedule: Open Monday–Friday with full-day hours
Happy Hollow Learning Center states that it believes childcare is a partnership with families and that it partners with parents to help children learn and grow. The program notes that it is the kind of day care center children are excited about and that it is small enough to care and flexible enough to meet a family’s busy schedule, including offering 4- and 5-day rates for ages 6 weeks to 12 years. The center reports that availability is limited and that children “come and grow,” so there are new openings each year.
The teaching staff at Happy Hollow Learning Center are described as dedicated and highly trained early childhood teachers who complete a minimum of 25 hours of continuous training each year. Staff training includes emergency response, First Aid, CPR, and AED. The program states that it is serious about safety, has emergency plans, and practices regularly for fire, tornado, and evacuation. It also works with local police and fire departments on security and lockdown scenarios.
Happy Hollow Learning Center reports that it prioritizes smaller class sizes to support individual attention and emphasizes a balance between group socialization, interaction, and individualized goals, with daily opportunities for individualized choice. The program notes that it uses a variety of methods to communicate with parents daily, provides bi-annual formal parent-teacher conferences, and offers performance feedback. It also states that it has a 5-star rating with NAC, which it identifies as Youngstar’s highest quality rating.
Parent testimonials describe flexible scheduling and caring staff. One parent, Samantha, states that Happy Hollow is very accommodating with a constantly changing nurse’s schedule and that she highly recommends the daycare. Another parent, Amy, shares that her son and daughter have learned a lot there and describes the teachers as flexible people who seem to care. Sarah reports being very satisfied, noting that her two children have fun, the staff is caring, and the center is more flexible than others she toured. Amanda explains that her family chose Happy Hollow for their 1-year-old because of the personal attention and family-like environment, and she notes that her child has many friends there and does not want to leave at pick-up time.
