Sonbeam Daycare Center

My daughter loves this place! She is 5 and I am impressed by all the activities, level of care, and number of toys (!) they have each day. The staff is knowledgeable and friendly. It is in a safer area of the city and overall, we are very pleased. It is also very affordable and convenient considering price includes meals and snacks. I would definitely recommend.

Amazing staff!! Our experience has been wonderful! I never have to worry about my daughter being in good hands. Susan and her staff are so great with the kids. I cant say enough good things. My daughter loves it there!

My son who is 3 has blossomed socially since he started a year ago. He always has something new to tell me he learned and lots of projects to show me. They just started a gymnastics program too. I get to talk to his teacher everyday and get feedback, I tell her things that we are working on at home and get support from her at school. It has been an excellent experience I would and have recommended it to friends especially if you are near Lloyd Center, or downtown Portland, it would be very convenient.

Sonbeam has been a wonderful experience with loving staff and a safe and clean facility.

My daughter is almost 5 and has been attending Sonbeam for 8 months now and we both love it. The director Karen is truly a loving and caring woman. She is always open and receptive to me and my concerns. I feel she is both a compassionate and genuine person. The program coordinator, Lindsay is also wonderful, she's cute, fun, and on the ball. My daughter always says that Lindsay is so pretty and that she loves her because she is so nice! The three teachers are also incredible. The whole group of caretakers including the school’s chef feel like they are a family, I think they've all worked together for around 15 to 20 years.nSo far this year the kids are learning a lot. My daughter always has a cubby full of art to take home, usually singing a new song that she's learned and reciting a new bible verse that she's learned. She's made many friends and just told me the other day again how much she LOVES her school and wishes she could be there everyday. The school also has a lot of performing arts that my daughter loves! Over the summer they had a weeklong ‘Tour of Egypt” camp that was a blast and they also had a few different performances!nThe director and coordinator just took training classes at 'The Children's Theater' that they'll be incorporating with the children.nIn the beginning, my main draw to the school was the flexibility they offered in terms of a schedule. Every other school I contacted had strict schedules that didn’t work for me. After having my daughter enrolled for 8 months now though I've learned there is much more to love!nVery well rounded, safe, fun, good academics. It's been a pleasure to be a part of their family and I look forward to the rest of the year. Also, there seems to be a lot of fun options lately: ice cream socials, Disney on ice, children's museum, etc..
