We've been a Scuttlebugs family now for almost 2 years and we love it. Our child gets a great preschool education every day with the amazing Miss Jill and Miss Rachael, at hours that work for us working parents. The children eat fresh curated food every day from Chef Liam, and our child has made some great friends (so have we), comes home with great exploratory art and talks about the new lessons of that day with curiosity and enthusiasm. We love the curriculum and our child is growing and learning and socializing very well. We are so thankful that Sam and her team came to Boulder and we enthusiastically recommend this program for anyone looking for quality childcare with all the bells and whistles.

My daughter has been going here for over 3 years. The new owners have made a lot of positive changes. I feel 100% safe leaving her here. My daughter loves her teachers and I enjoy getting all the updates throughout the day on their procare app. They have an in-house chef that not only makes life easier, but it's also very nutritious!
Editing my review to include The toddler room teacher Ms. Jill. She is exceptional and puts a lot of effort into the curriculum she teaches. I can't say enough good things about her!

I can testify for both the preschool classroom and infant room. My son was in the preschool room with a great and professional teacher, and he came home with something new that he learned every single day. The kids play outside every day, weather provided. It feels to me that this school puts stronger emphasis on content and a pedagogical program, rather than just passing the day somehow. Also, having a full-time chef (Laura), I never worried about my son's nutrition, and it was a relief not having to take care of packing his lunch every day!
My baby daughter has been in the infant room since she was 3 months old and she is thriving. The staff there is taking amazing, loving, and warm care of her. They are very cooperative and communicate with us, which is very important with such small babies, where there are very frequent changes in their nutrition, sleep and development. In this room everything is provided- diapers, wipes, formula, bottles and sleep sacks. So when comparing tuition rates, this should be considered.
There was indeed a transition period between ownerships, where we experienced high turnover, but things seem to have stabilized, and we are very happy with the current staff.

Our daughter attended school here from the time she was an infant (when it was Tiny Minders) to a toddler (Scuttlebugs). The teachers at the school were absolutely amazing! They truly cared about all the kiddos and our daughter loved seeing them every day. The new owners have brought many positive changes including an app (love seeing pictures of her throughout the day!), improved curriculum, and a full time chef! Our daughter loved the food that was made by Chef Laura and we felt it was always nutritious - plus it was nice not to have to worry about making lunch every day. Check-in/check-out procedures were designed with child safety in mind and that kept me at ease. We also really appreciated the clear communication from the school's leadership.

Our child has been at Scuttlebugs since she was 4 months old. This daycare has provided consistent and reliable childcare for them since day 1. We are so grateful for them and all the staff who work here.
When we first attended the school, it was run by a different owner. Many of the negative reviews are about the transition regarding the transfer of the business to the new owner. I find this unfair and I think they should be disregarded. Many people are reluctant to change - and often like to find fault instead of noticing what might be positive about a change of guard. In my opinion, the change has been for the better. All the kinks have been ironed out from the transition and the center is all the better for it.
Here are some of the things I personally like regarding this daycare and it's new ownership:
- the staff are more consistent and reliable
- the center provides all food, and my child has become a less picky eater because of it
- they provide diapers, and all nap supplies which is amazing
- check in and check out is secure and uses up to date technology
- i have an app on my phone where i can check in the types of activities our child is participating in throughout the day.
I have so much respect for this daycare, and I appreciate so much all the staff and it's new owners and managers for making this all possible.
