Parent Testimonials

We are proud of the positive impact we have had on the lives of our students and their families. Here's what some of our parents have said about their experience at Clayton Children's Center:

• "We're so happy to have found Clayton Children's Center! We recently moved to the area and were looking for after-school care for our daughter, who begins Kindergarten later this year. I started the search months in advance because I wanted to guarantee a spot for her as early as possible. CCC was the first to respond to my inquiries and our first, last, and only center to tour." - Gina Y
• "I will forever be grateful for them and what they have done for our son, our family, and the rest of their students." - Kelly S.
