I have used this provider for more than 6 months

My child went to I can from age 15months- age 5. The nurturing care and brilliant education that she was given is unmatched. They set a great foundation for children. They are affordable and will work with you. I miss everyone at I Can dearly. I am truly grateful for them. Because of them my child is the top of her class. Thank you to all staff. We appreciate you.

My son attended this program. This was his first ever daycare and I did not know what to expect. The staff at the center made the transition go very smoothly. Everyone was super responsive to my check ins. My son settled in and loved his teacher and the new friends he made. He was more outspoken and mastered the skills he learned at the center. I would absolutely recommend I can Learning Center to any parent looking for daycare/pre-school.

Our daughter attended I CAN LEARN from 18mths to 5yrs old. The best decision to start our little one's educational journey. At two our little one was fully potty trained with the their assistant, using a pencil and started reading. Upon graduation she went directly to 1st grade. I Can Learn These learning center is built on love of Christ and therefore the children receive the same love. Ms. P and her team are amazing and were such a blessing to our family!

Amazing staff with so much heart and caring mindset. It’s wonderful seeing my daughter get excited about going to daycare here. The teachers really make an effort to engage the kids and develop them in a very individualised way. The management is really committed to providing a safe, fun, and loving environment and we’re very thankful to and the whole team at

Thank you Ms. Florence. You know how dedicated we are to bringing out the best in the children in our community. Gerald is a great example of how we "inspire" children to be the best that God wants to be . By God's grace we are continuing the mission.
