Testimonials "Our son has attended A Child's World at Jordan Creek for over two years.  We enjoy our son's reports of fun and happy days at A Child's World.  He reports that he loves his friends, playing in the centers, doing art projects, singing songs, playing outside, baked beans, and Silly Sally visits.  We love that the directors, Ms. Ashley and Ms. Nancy, are onsite at all times and actively participating in the care our child is receiving at A Child's World.  The children are given routine opportunities to participate in multisensory fine motor, gross motor, cognitive, and socially appropriate developmental activities that will prepare them well for their school careers.  The fact that Ms. Ashley is a former elementary school teacher combined with her passion for children made choosing A Child's World very easy for us.  The teachers provide quality childcare in a safe, clean, structured, nurturing, and positive environment.  As is the case for most parents.  Entrusting our son to the care of other adults was initially a difficult thing to do but Ms. Ashley made it easier by gently guiding us all through the adjustment period.  The directors and teachers frequently solicit input from parents to be sure they are meeting the needs of the little people they serve.  We will be forever grateful for the love, kindness, education, security, reliability, friendships and fun our son has enjoyed while attending A Child's World."   Rhonda Christensen Occupational Therapist Des Moines Public Schools   Shane Christensen Principal, Indian Hills Jr. High School West Des Moines   "We feel truly blessed to have the opportunity to let our children be a part of A Child's World. The directors and staff obviously love what they do and continue to remain passionate each and every day. The excellent care they provide is displayed in our children's demeanor, and their academic skills continue to expand all the time.      Knowing they care so much about my children, when I am not available to be with them, is a very comforting feeling.  Both Ms. Ashley and Ms. Nancy, along with the rest of the staff, conduct themselves in a professional AND personally devoted manner, which in my opinion is an excellent combination when it comes to children.  Kids need a learning environment surrounded by love, and that is exactly what A Child's World provides." -The Mackey Family   "A Child's World is the best place for our son.  He is learning and growing by leaps and bounds and we can't thank you all enough for what you do." -The Waknitz Family   "We especially like your clean, cheery classrooms and how you display the children's work.  We've noticed how compassionate your staff is." -The Smidt Family   "Thanks you so much for taking care of and teaching Keaton and all the children at A Child's World.  As parents it's so comforting to know our children are in a safe, nurturing place when we can't be with them.  We just wanted you to know how much you are appreciated." -The Parizek Family   "Thank you so much for making Lindsey's transition at a new center so smooth.  You have been so positive and Lindsey loves coming to school to learn and play with her friends.  As a parent- that's priceless." -The Akason Family   "Thank you for all that you do for all of the children here at A Child's World!  We are so happy that we were able to find such a wonderful place for our daughter!"   -The Peters Family   "We have enjoyed all the caregivers.  You really have a wonderful staff!  You should be proud-your center has a wonderful-warm feeling when we walk in the door." -The Bartachek Family
