I have used this provider for more than 6 months

A NIGHTMARE! The owner and some teachers are very disrespectful. The place is infested with cockroaches, and kids are in danger in this place. I rather take my kids to a real daycare.

We have had all 3 of our children at Dino-might and could not have been happier. All of our children learned so much, the teachers took special care each day to keep us informed and our kids loved going to school! The Director greets everyone when you arrive and our kids always went into her office to give her hugs. A lot of the teachers have been there for many years and all of them are wonderful and loving. We found the school policies to also be fair and comparable to all the other preschools around. We highly recommend this school!! thanks Dino-might Kids...

Dino-Might kids is by far the best preschool in Boca Raton (and the surrounding area). My husband and I toured many schools before choosing Dino-Might and the points that sold us were the following:

1) It is owned and directed by the same person, Ms. Marlene, for over 25 years. She gave us our tour and was extremely personable, laid out all of the school policies up front, and is a fair and kind person. You can tell a lot about the school from this mere fact.

2) The class sizes are much smaller than at other schools. They are not running the classrooms "at ratio".

3) There is so much hands on learning that's going on! They may not have the newest technology but we prefer this for our children (especially when they're under 5 years old and get plenty of tablet time already)! They do art every single day and you can tell my kids are really learning.

4) The school is very clean and organized, with lots of visuals for the kids.

5) Several of our friends had their kids at Dino-Might from infants to VPK graduation and all had incredible experiences. All of their kids went on to be in gifted programs at their respective elementary schools and I know it's because of the ground work laid out at Dino-Might!!

6) The teachers are very warm and LOVING. You can tell they actually care and love the kids!!!

Overall, would HIGHLY recommend this school to anyone looking. Just tour as soon as you can because they are often running a wait list!

I have used this provider for more than 6 months

I have been using this daycare center for over a year now, I had a very uneasy feeling about the place from the very beginning and I was right. The owner Marlene goes out of her way to make life difficult. She never says hello or goodbye, never hold events for parents like other centers and never provides any updates on the children. She does however hold her hand out for money, charges for everything and anything she can think of. Her only response to this is that it is in the handbook, well if someone is so deceptive to write a handbook around being able to get extra money out of people this is not someone who should be in charge of children. I am happy to report we are no longer in this school and couldn't be happier about it, plus we are saving tons of money on a much better school!

Dino-Might Kids is by far the best preschool I have come across & trust me...I searched a lot of places!! It is clean, with an engaging learning environment for kids while also having all the resources for FUN! The teachers are warm, loving, and patient with the kids. The director is extremely hands on and always seen walking through the classes and helping out. She has also always been there to give me motherly advice. The place has been in Boca for 23 years, something I found very impressive and you can see why. I have my 18 month old and my 4 year old registered and both classes are awesome. My 4 year old is learning so much in the VPK program and has already tested for the gifted program at Del Prado! My husband and I could not be happier. Highly recommend Dino-Might.
