What Our Parents Say
About Our Services...
Kira Walker, Parent at Northwest Child Development Center
“The Northwest Child Development Center staff
has really helped Sincere learn his colors, letters and how to
write his name. He has also developed his socials skills which
will be valuable in a classroom setting. Aveyah picks up much of
what her brother learns.I like that the Northwest staff keeps me
well informed about what is happening with my children. They’re
extraordinarily friendly and I’m always aware of any upcoming
field trips or parties so that I can send my children in
prepared. I really appreciate that the staff reinforces the
values and respect of authority figures that I instill in my
children at home. But most of all, Northwest is a safe, social
and educational place where I know my children will be cared for
during my busy day.”

Okupe , Parent at Northwest Child Development Center
It is with great pleasure that I write about my son’s experience
at Northwest Child Development Center.
As a first time mother, words cannot express how grateful I am
to have met teachers and staff that are concerned about my son’s
growth and wellbeing. My son’s teachers were ALWAYS available to
answer ALL of my questions. Every morning, the entire staff sees
my son, greets him with a smile and calls him by his name. In
addition, other children in the class have been trained to greet
each baby as they arrive. This is a great way for children to
develop friendships. Not only is this great for welcoming my
child (and other children), it has also made my child feel “at
home” with everyone. He became accustomed to the environment to
the extent that he has developed a recognition of the
environment. He is quick to get out of his car seat and looks
towards the entrance of the building showing excitement as he
enters his classroom.
The NWCDC
director was very helpful with my son’s admission and enrollment
process and has been instrumental in allowing my weekly travel
experience from Maryland to
Roanoke stress free. My son
(Victor) was enrolled as an Infant a few days before he was 6
months. At the time of enrollment, it was obvious my son needed
a lot of care, attention and feeding monitoring because he was
recovering from a viral cold he had contacted from a previous
daycare center. His teachers did an extra ordinary job making
sure all observations were reported at the end of the day and
they also ensured all breathing treatments were done in a timely
manner. With this, my son’s recovery process was smooth with
increased gained weight. I was also informed of what I needed to
do as a mom to ensure my son met his milestones for his age.
What I also
love about the NWCDC are the weekly outings that have been
organized for the children outdoors. I love this because other
daycare centers do not offer this opportunity. Since our stay in
Roanoke was a period of 6 months, I intend on bringing my son to
visit in the near future to celebrate his first birthday.
Many thanks to
the staff of NWCDC for proving once again “it takes a village to
raise a child”
