What Families Say About Play2Learn Academy
Real experiences from families who have trusted Play2Learn with their children
Choosing childcare is a deeply personal decision. Parents want to know that their child will be safe, cared for, encouraged, and surrounded by people they can trust.
Since 2007, families have welcomed Play2Learn Academy into an important part of their children’s lives. Through our centers in Bountiful, Clearfield, and Layton, we have had the opportunity to care for children through many stages—from their earliest years through preschool, Pre-K, after-school care, and summer programs.
The experiences shared by our families offer a perspective that we could never communicate quite the same way ourselves. They speak to the relationships children build with their teachers, the confidence parents place in our teams, and the sense of community we work to create every day.
We invite you to read what Play2Learn families have shared about their experiences with our centers, teachers, and programs.
Early Childhood
Infant Parents
We have had a great experience with Play2Learn! They are reliable, fairly priced, and have truly caring teachers! We have been taking our baby girl for over a year now and have always been impressed with their communication, dependability, flexibility and genuine love for our daughter. We feel safe leaving her in their care and love how invested they are in her life! They also have been super supportive of our breastfeeding journey and are still making her breastmilk a priority even at 14 months which is so amazing!
My son loves it here! He is 2. My infant daughter is just starting and they have been very patient and understanding.
I started out my daughter with this company at just 4 months old almost 5 years ago. They provide the formula and diapers for an amazing price for full time children. The staff love my kids as if they were their own and always put them first. I now have my youngest son there along with my daughter and they are always treated extremely well. I get updates on how their day is going on the regular and what they are eating that day and if they are having any issues. They let your kids have vacation days so, if you go on vacation, you’re not stuck with a bill that week as well. They are all amazing and the hours are great for those of us that work 12 hour shifts. Thank you for all you do for my babies! I wouldn’t want to take them anywhere else!
We’ve had a great experience with Play to Learn. Our son has been there since he was 8 weeks old and is now 2.5 years old. A lot of the same kids have been there since babies so they’ve got quite a pack of best friends there, it’s very cute to see. The teachers have been great. The facility is ALWAYS clean, drop off and pick up is smooth. They have great communication with parents and always throw some great events outside of daycare time (like trunk or treats) that are a lot of fun to go to. 10/10 recommend!!
Toddler Parents
We love this daycare for our little kiddo! Their hours of operation are very accommodating for two full time working parents. Love the app that notifies you of all their potty times, meals, naps and incidents. He is absolutely obsessed with his teacher Gina! Big shout out to her patience, love and care for the kids! They all love her! She has helped our little one tremendously with his communication communication and social skills! Obsessed with all the activities he’s done with her and how much he’s learned!
My son has been at Play2Learn Bountiful since February 2023, right around when he turned 1. We LOVE P2L - my son is learning so much every day and when he comes home he is so excited to tell us about his friends, his teachers, and all the things he did while at daycare. The teachers and staff at P2L are wonderful. They are kind, thoughtful, patient, and its clear that they really do care so much about all of the kiddos at the facility. We love that we can send our little guy and get updates throughout the day via an app, and they are quick to respond if we reach out with questions. It has been so nice to have peace of mind and know that our son is in great hands when we drop him off each morning. Thank you P2L!
Absolutely love the owner and the staff. My boys have been going there for 2 years and it is like second home to them. Best daycare ever!
We have been a part of the P2L Daycare family since May 2023, and couldn’t be happier with our experience. The staff always keeps you updated through the app – and I absolutely love the photos they share throughout the day. It’s so nice to get a glimpse of what my kids are up to... Everyone here truly cares about the kids, and it shows in everything they do. I highly recommend this Daycare to any parent looking for a warm, caring, and supportive place for their little ones!
We absolutely love this daycare and the staff! My daughter loves all the teachers and has fun everyday. Love that they send updates throughout the day on her activities.
Preschool & Pre-K
Preschool Parents
My son went to the preschool only program. He showed up late in the year after having a terrible experience at another preschool and had lost complete confidence in himself. Erin (the teacher) spent the first day with him and it was a complete 180 flip. My son was back to his happy normal self and I could see his eyes light up again. I will forever be grateful to Erin and the staff for helping my son feel loved and being patient with him as he learned new things. He made awesome friends and grew so much during the time he was there. I was still nervous about kindergarten but less so because Erin taught with love and kindness.
My child started at Play2Learn when he was 2. It was the first time I was putting ANY of my children in daycare & I was so nervous for how he'd handle it. From day 1, the staff have been great at communicating with me & providing me updates. My child struggles with speech, and the staff here have learned how to communicate & understand him. With that being said, this daycare overall has helped my child improve his speech through their preschool activities & his interactions with the other children. I'm so grateful that this daycare has provided myself & my child with a wonderful experience. ❤️
Highly recomended! Very frendly stuff. My both kids love it! Very good preschool!
I can’t say enough good things about Play2Learn! Their staff and teachers are all friendly and great with each and every child. My child has loved attending for preschool and daycare. Miss Kelsi, Miss Brooke and Miss Fabi are our faves!
Pre-K Parents
I'd give countless stars if possible. They are so wonderful to work with! My kids actually WANT to go! At their previous school they tried everything to get out of going. That alone speaks volumes in just a week of attending. The staff is loving and kind. My 5 year old twins love it here! I will be recommending Play2Learn to everyone I know!
My boys have been going to Play2Learn for 4 years now. We have been at all 3 of their locations... Clearfield is our favorite. I have tried other daycares and have had very bad things happen at both. Play2Learn has staff that ACTUALLY cares about your kids and takes care of them. They do lessons and learning activities in ALL of the classes so your child actually learns things while they are there. My youngest graduated preschool here and Miss Kelsi did AMAZING with him. He is so ready for Kindergarten. My boys adore this daycare. The office staff is great at addressing any concerns you have. I refuse to take my kids anywhere else. This place is like a second home for them and I trust these individuals with my kids and their wellbeing and happiness. The pictures and updates through the app help me mentally throughout the day as well.
School-Age Programs
After-School Care
My daughter and I love this center. The owners really are accessible to you and they are amazing people. The director can be found throughout the center helping where needed which is a great quality in a director. My daughter is able to attend dance class here which is a major plus. The center is clean, bright, full of art projects and just feels happy overall. My daughter loves going to school which is the best reassurance for a working parent.
We have been going to Play2Learn bountiful for 5 years for both of our boys (now 6 &10). The staff there are wonderful! I love having the app for quick easy check in and out and a great source of communication with the staff. We also love seeing the photos and activities the kids are doing during the day.
