Immanuel Lutheran Day School

My child has been with ILDS from the beginning, she is 2 ½ now and we plan to stay for a while. The staff is great; I have enjoyed each of her teachers and so has she. The teachers and staff are a community; they are all involved with the kids. My kiddo is always greeting teachers she hasn’t had and the ones she had from her past classes; she knows their names and runs to give them hugs. My child loves to go to school and gets so excited to see her teacher. The teachers and staff listen to the parents, follow the specific guidelines if any of the children and show them so much love. I’m grateful for the love they all have for the children. I highly recommend this day school for anyone.

I started my kiddo at Immanuel Lutheran for Pre-​K! The teachers were fantastic and really helped him be prepared for Kinder. He is still there 5 years later… enrolled in their after school and summer camp programs. He loves it! Immanuel has a great staff, is clean, and i feel my child is safe and in a great environment. Love it!

We rescued our 7 month old son from this nightmare daycare today. This is the second time he has come home hoarse from crying, and again his director lied and told us he was perfectly happy. There are usually only 2 – 3 kids in his class, and 1 – 2 teachers, yet every time either of us has come by, all the babies are crying and the teachers are ignoring them. None of the kids are developmentally where they should be. We got tired of being told that Sam’s depression was normal and he’d stop crying after a few weeks. His sadness lasts long after we bring him home. At lunch yesterday, we visited another daycare that had 8 – 9 babies and only two teachers in one class, yet all the babies were so happy and playful. Not one of them was crying. The younger babies were following and trying to copy the skills of the older ones. They all waved at our, and by the end of the visit, our son was waving too, for the first time! He didn’t scream when he saw his new teachers at the other school; they helped him feel at ease. It was a completely different experience from Immanuel Lutheran. Perhaps other classrooms at Immanuel function better, but please look at your options. It is worth it to pay more and drive farther I hope last night was the last night my kid cries himself to sleep. I’m looking forward to my happy baby being happy again.

Our kids go to the day school at Immanuel, and we’re really happy with it. Excellent teachers that really care about the kids, great teacher/​student ratios, and our kids are really happy there.
We’d sent them to some other places in Pville that will remain nameless, and had less than positive experiences, so we’re really glad we found Immanuel. If you’re looking for a great place to send babies, toddlers, and pre-​schoolers, this is it.
