"We loved EEC from the first moment we walked in the door..."

We started searching for daycare when we were 6 months pregnant with our son. We never thought we would find a daycare center that would align with our values and our pocketbook. Who knew that Eastside Educational Center was right under our noses?

After visiting the center a few times and speaking with many of the staff, we knew that EEC would be the perfect place to grow our son's skills and talents. We fell in love with the caring staff, the spacious classrooms, gym and playground, and the overall feeling we got when we walked in the door.

Our son has made new friends his age, has improved his walking and running skills very quickly, and has begun to babble more with actual words, and even in ways that sound like sentences!

 "Jesse has separation anxiety and his teachers have been wonderful... Now Jesse looks forward to going to school..."

We became associated with EEC when my stepson Jacob moved to Mackinaw and started attending preschool. We were residents of Bloomington at the time, and we were very impressed with the care and the attention that our son was receiving. The teachers were very attentive and always worked with us to make Jacob's schooling a positive experience. We have moved to Mackinaw and now our youngest son Jesse attends EEC. Jesse has separation anxiety and his teachers (Mrs. Frey and Mrs. Janet) have been wonderful. Jesse was scared in the beginning and did not want to go to school. Now Jesse looks forward to going to school. I thank the staff at EEC for making this so easy for Jesse (and his mommy!).
