Eyes On The Future Child Development Center - Chicago, Illinois

My daughter has been attending Eyes on the Future for about 2 ½ years now. They are amazing, all of the family support specialists are wonderful. The teachers are great, everyone is super nice too! It has such a warm, and welcoming atmosphere.

There's multiple events a month from mental health workshops, to cultural exchanges, potlucks, in the summer there's parties and festivals. Every year your child has a little graduation event too. They work with Chicago Commons, who provides therapy resources, job coaching, and financial services. At the events they've had delicious home cooked meals, pizza, bounce houses, games, prizes and many more! I always try to go becsuse the food is so so good!

There's mandatory parenting meetings as well for mental health and burn out. Last mother's day they hosted a Mommy Yoga meeting where there was a closet we could choose make up and accessories from.

They were 100% ontop of my daughter's transition from Early Intervention to helping me facilitate her IEP. My daughter went from being understandable to me, to talking in full sentences. She loves her friends, and every Friday she asks me if she's going to school tomorrow because she loves it so so much! She used to be terrified to be anywhere without me, and she's on the spectrum, but I never felt like she was being mistreated or in danger there.

All the staff knows her name, and she's always smiling when I come pick her up. The C-Side, where the 0-3 children are is also incredible, they have toys, games, circle time, and teach the children songs! When my daughter graduated they sung the finger song and it was too cute!

The A-Side is also fantastic, we had multiple cultural nights, and the children even put on a full concert before Winter Break.

They're willing to work with you, support you, and give you the tools you need. Not only that, but they work closely with the EI therapists, and are flexible with letting them treat your children there. The school is also incredibly multi cultural, and diverse. Many of the employees are migrants, and all over the building is decorated with maps, flags and other cultural items! It's truly a melting pot, and will expose your child to all walks of life.

I remember I was struggling because of my physical health to get my child to school on time, and I never once felt judged or ashamed of myself. Sometimes I can't get dressed because I spent the vast amout of my energy prepping my daughter, and I've always been treated with diginity and respect. This really is the best daycare there is, and I'm so proud my daughter goes here.

I’ll try to make this short - EOTF will always have a special place in my heart.

In 2016, I found EOTF as a first-time mom returning to school and they truly became my backbone. Now as a mom for 4, I can honestly say I wouldn't have been able to balance so much without their support.

The teachers and staff greet you with warmth and kindness every single morning, offering not just childcare, but peace of mind. I always knew my little ones were in the best hands while I pursued my career and furthered my education. The genuine care they provide is unparalleled, and their commitment to creating a safe, nurturing environment has meant everything to me over the years.

I’m forever grateful to EOTF for being such an integral part of our journey. Their support was invaluable, and I will always look back on our time with them with gratitude.

Teachers and staff, we will miss seeing your faces every morning. Thank you for all that you’ve done for Santi, Lily, Ezequiel, and myself. Your dedication did not go unrecognized.

With love,
Naranjo Family

Eyes on the Future was a wonderful place for our son. He went for two years of preschool, learned a lot and made good friends. Highly recommended!

Everything Eyes on the Future claims on it's website is spot-on true. My young foster daughter attended the Early Head Start program in 2023-2024. She loved it and was loved. She thrived socially and academically in this safe and caring place. The self-help skills she learned made my job easier and I gained valuable parenting insights as well. It truly was a family oriented community with lots of workshops, services and social events. They were a huge support to me as I navigated my foster mom experience. I will be forever grateful to Eyes on the Future and I highly, highly recommend them for any child.

If you love your children don’t take them to this daycare. The videos shows where they take the children for detention. A dark room light doesn’t work with bunch of supplies that can fall on your kid any given moment. That is their time out and the picture shows where they store and serve the food to your children. This daycare shows 0 safety towards your kids and the staff speak with a language you do not want your children around. There is a DCFS case open regarding this situation to make sure that there is no child abuse going on and their other facility has 0 safety for kids and cameras do not work. They also don’t have the right ratio for the amount of kids per teacher and the guy who put my child in that dark room looked like he was on drugs and dressed unprofessional around little kids..

My God son is attending the school and he likes it. They are able to accommodate his special needs easily. The teachers are warm toward him and the family. When you walk in staff greet you nicely. It’s a beautiful diverse place in the community that welcomes everyone. I love the diversity.

I've had a positive experience with Eyes on the Future. The infant toddler and pre-k teachers have been exceptionally kind and understanding, fostering a nurturing environment for my nephews. I've noticed a significant improvement in their English language skills since they started attending the daycare. The focus on language development is commendable, making Eyes on the Future a valuable choice for parents seeking a supportive early learning environment in the Chicago area.

The workers are very nasty. I ask a woman if they have a plan if something happen to the children because of the neighborhood having so much crime. Because i pray for the babies walking around the area. Her response was nasty she say yayayaya pray for yourself. It's obvious the employees are not qualified to work with children if her respond to an adult was nasty. I wouldn't send my grandchildren to this daycare with such nasty disrespectful vocabulary employees.
