Maryville Early Learning Center

We enrolled our older son when he was 5 months old after a less-than-ideal experience at another child care center and haven’t looked back since, nearly 3.5 years later. The best way to describe MELC is family. We know, without a doubt, that when our kids are at school, they are being loved on, cared for, & taught with kindness… They have made lasting friendships & built incredible bonds with peers because there is so much consistency here! They have classmates that they’ve been in class with since they were infants, which is so special! I rave to everyone who will listen that when we enrolled our younger son, he has the same teachers that our older son did 3 years prior – that is unheard of in child care! We have unbelievable peace of mind knowing how supported our family is by everyone at MELC, enrolling our children there truly changed our lives!

We are so grateful to be a part of the Maryville Early Learning Center family. Our sons have been going to the center since they were infants and watching them grow and learn here has been incredible. There’s nothing better, as a parent, than dropping your kids off in an environment where you know they are loved deeply, safe and receiving a great education. The teachers are always there to cheerlead and celebrate milestones and recognize areas of opportunity for growth in our son’s life.

Our kids have been at this daycare center since they were infants, and we couldn’t have asked for a better place. They’ve loved going every single day, which says a lot. The staff has been there for years, and we do not take it for granted. It allows our kids to create strong bonds with each teacher and allows the teachers to truly know our kids. They’ve handled allergies and other needs with so much attention and understanding, and we’ve always felt completely at ease knowing our kids are in such good hands. It’s clear they truly care about our kids, and we’re so grateful for the impact they’ve had on our family. Choosing a daycare is one of the most important decisions you make as a parent, and we’re so thankful we chose this one.

We moved into the area when my first son was 8 months old and were searching for a great daycare for him. We were referred to Maryville Early Learning Center (formerly Holy Family) from a friend, met Amy and some of the teachers and knew this was the place for us. The teachers are top-notch; their tenure and passion can be seen daily with the children; it feels they become part of the family since they know them so well. This facility is truly a hidden gem in the area; we are so lucky we found it.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience. Amy Greif, the director, is phenomenal—she runs the center with such warmth, organization, and genuine care. The teachers in the toddler, young preschool, and Pre-K rooms have all been absolutely amazing. They truly care about our daughter and have helped her grow and thrive in every way. The lessons and activities are engaging and creative, and it always feels like a family environment. We’re so grateful to have found such a wonderful place for her early learning years.”

Maryville Early Learning Center has been a wonderful part of our lives, supporting all three of our daughters from infancy through pre-K. The staff is warm, professional, and truly attentive to each child’s development. The center is secure, spotless and well-organized, which gives us peace of mind every day. Our girls have thrived emotionally, socially, and academically thanks to the enriching environment and caring team. We’re proud to be part of the Maryville community and highly recommend it to other families.
