The iLearn Center Daycare of Chicago - Chicago, Illinois

Review W. U.

See Photo. This lady was on her phone with all these little ones. I have seen her out all week on her phone while strolling with infants. Today I watched her stroll down the street and actually cross at a very busy intersection while on her phone NOT paying any attention to her surroundings nor the children. I’ve actually never seen this lady even engage with them. Shouldn’t she be walking and enriching thier lives? Talking about nature or something interesting with them or possibly teaching them something interesting while out on walks This is disturbing and terrifying. And I’d like to mention that the other employees who cruise around our neighborhood in the red strollers from this day care with numerous infants and toddlers do this as well. And the girls that walk the toddlers with ropes also walk these children while on their phones. It not only makes my blood boil it is beyond concerning. And to think these innocent children are being cared for by these people daily. I’m praying for these families and their children daily. When I see this it rips my heart out. If the parents only knew…I don’t believe any parent would approve of this kind of behavior.

Unfortunately since the director left earlier in the year the management leaves a lot to be desired - and that’s being kind. A toddler teacher left and it took them months to replace her, yet management advised of a tuition increase of $125 more a month claiming it is to “keep up the quality of teachers and facility” while they still didn’t have a replacement. Then when they found a new teacher they didn’t share any background information about her (show me a legitimate daycare that doesn’t include information of their staff if not on the website at the very least in the facility). And when I enquired about it, the director and owner told me it was private information that they couldn’t share.

And this is just a couple examples of how this place is run. I have many more.

All of this is the result of an owner that is completely absent, literally, she’s based in Florida. It seems that all she cares about is collecting money.

Because of the owner, we didn’t trust keeping our child there and moved her. It’s really too bad because this place was wonderful with the old director.

My two sons (twins) have been at ilearn since they were about six months old until about 4.5. The staff and faculty are amazing, caring, and loving of all the children that are there. They provide individual attention and are communicative with parents and provide a loving environment. All throughout COVID they did an amazing job keeping kids safe to the best of their abilities and providing working parents support. If you live in the Lincoln Park or Lakeview area and are looking for a reliable place to care for your children, I cannot recommend ilearn enough. The boys will miss the teachers 😭. Great place. Worth checking out.

We have been at iLearn for 2 years, since my son was 14 weeks. Words cannot express all the gratitude that I have for this place. This place is extremely well organized, extremely clean. Even with COVID, Ms. Julia does an excellent job instituting protocols - for cleaning, pick up/droff off, etc.

Since our son went from Day one, he was extremely well cared for and loved. He was slower than others in his gross motor development (crawling, walking), and the teachers were diligent in doing daily exercises with him.

They also serve both organic breakfast and lunch - which is rare for daycares.

They are so attentive to every since child and his/her needs; conscientious of celebrating every milestone, holiday, and overall so friendly and pleasant. It's an extremely nurturing and loving environment.

We are only leaving because we are moving to the burbs. We will miss this place dearly. You will not be disappointed here.
