Spectrum Station

We have been with Spectrum Station for the last 5 years and truly loved our experience. Our kids have loved every teacher they have had, and always feel loved not just by their individual teachers, but all staff in the building. They've learned so much & our oldest two are in elementary school now and were so prepared socially, emotionally, and academically for Kindergarten that the transition from "daycare" to school was seamless. The admin staff are wonderful & open to having any conversation you may need to have. I love the feel of being a PART of Spectrum Station, not just a number. I recommend them anytime I can!

We absolutely love Spectrum station. We started in the Pre-K class where the teachers are absolutely amazing at getting them Kindergarten ready. Then we were offered a spot for our 2nd child and he immediately began thriving and knows everyone in the school! They offer a well balanced breakfast and lunch with snacks, too. You can always drop in and the Director and Admins are always available to support if needs arise. They are also quick to step in when ratios increase and staff need support. We receive updates for everything, (weather, news, activities, monthly newsletter, text messages from teachers w/ photos, ect) It’s comforting knowing my child is taken care of and I have no worries. That is a privilege!! They do several activities and provide back up support care if needed for older siblings and summer care.

We have been going to this daycare for almost 7 years now and we LOVE it. The director is an amazing woman who truly loves these children. We have been through a lot with Spectrum Station and their team from navigating working through covid, different schedules, and having two VERY different children. The patience, understanding, and care we have received from this facility overall has been a blessing to our family.

We have had two of our children blessed to have Spectrum be their second home. There are soo many ahhhhhmazing things I could say about this place and the wonderful people who work here but people come to the reviews to get to the point. If you are looking for a place that makes your child feel special, safe, loved, genuinely take the time to know your family, and meet high expectations THIS IS THE PLACE! The building is secure, the staff is very personable, involved, and caring. The classroom sizes are filled perfectly, I know there is a legal ratio of caregivers to children which Spectrum has always maintained but Ive never seen them push the max because they really strive to make sure the kids are getting the attention they need. They have so many extra programs they offer, soccer, basketball, hooked on phonics, yoga, dance, science just to name a few, and the activities they do during the summer program is nuts, I honestly don't know how they fit this stuff in the budget but your child will not be short any experiences here! Their playground might seem small but they are constantly putting newer and better play equipment out there, its freaking shaded, and the kids have a BLAST out there. Because of Spectrum I basically had to do nothing when it came to potty training, these people are miracle workers. The routine and environment they set for my kids made for such ease at home. I can genuinely say my kids look(ed) forward to going here. My 1st baby was overly prepared for kindergarten, was ahead of the curve compared to other incoming kindergarteners, my second baby is on the same track. They do a holiday music program that's so dang cute, trunk or treat that my kids look forward to every year. These are also outside of center hours that the teachers and staff put THEIR time into for no other reason but to pour more love into our babies. They feed these kids so good and are very conscience of their menu which they provide for tge parents review. We get weekly updates for the center via email, text message reminders for important dates and weather, a very active Facebook which I adore because I get pictures of my kids day and seeing MY kid in so many pics busy and happy helps take the edge off the mom guilt (they also respect peoples privacy and do not allow these posts to be shared outside the group and only children whos parents have consented are posred). Price wise they are pretty much comparable or cheaper than similar centers. Is it cheap though, NO! Good care is not! However, from someone who has pushed two kids through here and know of other families paying for multiple children, at the same time, to be here, it is worth every penny! I would pay this staff so much more for all they do and provide. I personally have NEVER had a bad experience, moment, or felt any type of hesitation with my babies here. If you're lucky your kid might get to go here. I'm blessed mine did. Some additional feedback my husband had: the communication is top notch, teachers and staff approachable, felt they give genuine dedication to the children.

My son attended Spectrum Station Barry Road for Pre-K and I was beyond happy. The pre-k teachers are very caring and prepare the kids for kindergarten nicely. The meals provided at the center for breakfast, lunch and snack are great too!
