Google reviewShared by a Minot parent

โ€œWe enrolled our son at Creative Beginnings Daycare when he was 2 months old, and we had recently relocated to North Dakota. As a first time Mom, I was very nervous about being in a new city and selecting a school for our son to attend. However, we just celebrated his 2nd birthday and are beyond happy with the care our son receives at school each day. The staff are incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child's development. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and provides a stimulating environment for play and learning. We feel completely confident leaving our child in their hands and highly recommend Creative Beginnings Daycare to any parent looking for a nurturing and supportive daycare experience.โ€
