First time mom here and child care was the most important thing for my husband and I to consider. The day we toured we had zero hesitation and zero need to look anywhere else. Ducklings has been a huge blessing to us and we feel comfortable dropping our daughter off every day knowing she’s in the best hands possible. Jenny and Jalynn are amazing and are there for any questions or concerns that ever come up. Her teachers, Caleigh and Mallory, are the best there are and care about their kiddos so much. I would recommend Ducklings Pocopson to anyone and everyone who asks!

Theres nothing like being able to drop off your child and walk away knowing they’re in great trusted hands. The team at ducklings is the best of the best. My little duck started in Caterpillars and just graduated to butterflies! Ms.Jalynn is amazing and teaches so much more than the basics; my son practices manners, patience and independence and comes home each week with new skills and interests he gathered at school. The owner, Jenny; has made us feel like part of the family from the very start and always goes the extra mile to make sure that not only my kiddo is cared for, but that his parents are supported and in the know every step of the way. There are so many amazing features at ducklings Pocopson that set them apart too! from the curriculum that grabs each child’s curiosity to the gym that offers indoor play year round to the events held for parents and families where there’s smiles all over. It’s not just an early learning center; It is a safe space full of incredible staff who will treat your kiddos like one of their own. We’re so happy here!

Ducklings is such a special place. Our kids LOVE going to school. The owner, directors, teachers— everyone — truly values the kids and families who are part of the school. The owner Jenny went out of her way when we transitioned from another school to make us feel welcome and even brought a special toy from home for my son. They all go above and beyond to do creative activities, special events, and the curriculum has my kids beyond prepared academically. The school itself is clean, inviting, warm, and filled with teachers who clearly love what they do. I cannot say enough positive things about this Ducklings.

My daughter has gone to Ducklings Pocopson since she was 11 weeks old. We have had a fantastic experience in every single classroom from infants through the three-year-old classroom that she is in now. She loves going to school and I can’t wait to see her continue to thrive here until kindergarten! She loves her teachers so much!

We feel very fortunate to have our child at Ducklings Daycare, where the staff provide such genuine care and support. The teachers create an inviting and engaging environment that blends learning with fun in the best way. Communication with families is always thoughtful, and their commitment to safety and development is clear. Our son is so excited to go each morning—he runs right in and has an amazing time every day. Ducklings has given our family both peace of mind and a wonderful sense of community.

We love ducklings! Our daughter has jumped right into a structured learning environment with ease from the help of the various teachers. All the staff at pocopson are friendly, welcoming and approachable about needs or concerns for your child. We appreciate the modern approach of communication with teachers and directors and love receiving pictures and updates throughout the day via the app. They make you feel like family and we love how our daughter loves all the teachers not just her main classroom, it shows everyone goes out of their way to be kind and make the children feel seen.

My son and I both love Ducklings Pocopson. The building itself is bright and clean and the decor changes with the season – always fun and cheery. My son has grown through several classrooms and he’s always come home happy and well cared for. As he’s gotten older and his language has developed, it’s been really fun to hear about his day. They do all manner of fun, engaging stuff, and as an added bonus, learn a ton while they’re at it. The other day my guy told me “hummingbirds can fly backwards and sideways.” He also knows all of his letters and numbers, and is really starting to attach appropriate sounds to letters. I didn’t teach him any of that! It’s abundantly clear that the teachers and leadership really do care to make it a great place for our littlest loves.
