Testimonials

I love Corazoncitos Felices Academy! We moved here a few months ago and Melanie was so helpful from the start. Finding a safe daycare/school, with earlier & later hours available, trustworthy staff and that provides educational activities is hard to find for any parent and child. I searched for months before moving and when I was able to take a tour with Melanie I was immediately put at ease and was excited for my 2yo to start. My daughter loves her teacher Maru and all of the staff! Maru helped so masterfully with my daughter’s transition from the previous daycare to this new one. Maru has also been amazing with getting my little one potty trained. As a single mom, potty training was overwhelming but Maru and the other staff have all helped immensely. I love that the facility utilizes technology! The app that is used to both sign kiddos in and out with time stamps is great so tracking time spent there. I know the staff are all amazing at multitasking because not only do they keep on top of everything, they also take pictures of our little ones throughout the day and upload them on the app so we, as parents can see how they’re doing. Even though my little one is comfortable and loves going to CFA, the photos and general daily updates help put my own parent-anxiety at ease. The effort all of the staff put in, and especially Maru my little one’s teacher and Melanie, is much appreciated! If you’re looking for a daycare/school for your little that also currently accepts the NM Child Care credit, look no further 💜 - Nina Peterson
