TESTIMONIALS
We often hear about children not being ready or failing in school. What an awesome opportunity to get your child up and ready for success early! The owner has worked with many educators and children before venturing out on her own servicing, educating and getting the babies ready for the world of knowledge. She's an educator, parent, caring and loving so don't miss the opportunity of placing your child in excellent hands. I stand behind what she is doing with touching the hearts of children.
Latraya Shepard is phenomenal, and great at what she does. My son was one of her first kids at age 2, and by the time he went to pre k 4 he knew his phonics like no one’s business. She takes the time to nurture the kids, she gives them confidence, and I’m extremely confident that she played a huge role in why my son is such a great reader today at age 7. I also sent my daughter to Latraya. She was going to another school before that and I noticed that she was unable to spell her name and recognize some of her letters. I immediately took my daughter out of that school and sent her to inquiring minds learning Academy (I.M.L.A) Within a couple of weeks my daughter was spelling her name, and was improving drastically with letter recognition, and her phonics. I’m extremely grateful to Latraya, I wish she could follow my kids throughout each grade and be their teacher. Between the fact that Latraya is very creative with teaching, nurturing, kind hearted, and overall just a beautiful being. Inquiring minds learning academy definitely gets my vote when it comes to an excellent learning environment. Get your kids registered, between what they will learn with Latraya, and if you as a parent keep that momentum at home. Your kid will be unstoppable!
My son has been at Inquiring Minds Childcare for 4 years. My past experiences with childcare were great with my other children. My experience with Latraya has been AMAZING. FROM DAY ONE my child has felt like apart of her family. When I pull off everyday during drop off I never look back or worry because he is in good hands. Besides safety and caring my son has learned so much. As he transitions in to Kindergarten I am sure he will do just fine. Academically he is beyond his years. He knows how to count in Spanish, he knows how to spell his name and write it. He knows a lot about science, animals, nature. He already knows simple math including some multiplication. Inquiring Minds Childcare is more that just a center to take care of kids, it is also a place where children grow, learn and are nurtured. I love it here!
When I took my baby to Inquiring Minds I was really concerned about his speech and he was a little delayed. Ms. Shepard told me not to worry about it. She came up with different ideas and strategies to help my son. We did our part at home. Within the next 3 months we saw a major difference in my son. He's been doing 100% better. When he went to Kindergarten his teacher asked what daycare did he attend. She said he so smart and advanced. We thank you so much Inquiring Minds for the time you put into my baby. We are grateful Ms. Shepard. She really loves her kids! She goes above and beyond to make sure her children are successful.
My husband and I was looking for childcare for about 2 months. We visited 6 different daycares. I didn't feel comfortable with any of them. When I met Ms. Latraya at Inquiring Minds Learning Academy we knew she was the one. It was something about her. She was so nice and patient. This was our first time putting my kids in a childcare program. My kids loved Inquiring Minds. They never wanted to ho home. All Ms. Latraya kids love her so much. Everytime I went to pick up my kids, I noticed all the kids always hugging Ms. Latraya. They really love her. She a very loving person. Always willing to give. She has a big heart ❤️. My family and I LOVE Inquiring Minds. Please hold a spot for my baby boy.
LaTraya is a phenomenal teacher, educator, and childcare provider. My son started at Inquiring Minds at a year old and instantly he felt welcomed and had an easy transition. The love and care he receives from Ms.Latraya and Ms.Lisa is beyond what a parent could want for their child at school. When I pick him up, he still doesn’t want to leave. My son's skills and development have grown tremendously since starting, and it’s only been 6 months. I am so excited to see his continued growth at Inquiring Minds. Latraya's first priority is the safety and well-being of the children, which gives me a sense of relief as a parent. All of my son’s peers are extremely smart beyond age. Please don’t second guess enrolling your child(ren) at Inquiring Minds!
Inquiring Minds is amazing! They take great care of all their children
