Wilcox's Academy Early Learning Center

We are so grateful for the incredible start this daycare gave our son. Early childhood education is so important — it’s where confidence is built, curiosity is sparked, and lifelong learning begins. From day one, the staff created a safe, loving, and structured environment that nurtured not only academics, but character and independence. They also reinforced traditional values so important to us New Orleanians — respect for elders, faith, resilience, discipline, and the importance of community. Those lessons mattered just as much as the ABCs. They helped shape him into a young man who understands hard work, integrity, and lifting others as he climbs. Now, as he prepares to graduate from University of Notre Dame, we can clearly see how much those early years mattered. The strong foundation they built has carried him all the way to this milestone. We wholeheartedly recommend this daycare to any family who understands the lasting impact of quality early education.

It is hard letting your kid go off to school for the first day of school, not just for them but for the parent as well. When my kid began, she was a screaming, crying mess not wanting to stay BUT asking her about her day daily she would always say "I played with my friends, mama!" I love the fact that EVERYONE is a friend. She comes home singing songs, a bit more respectful with her speaking. I love it! Wilcox has helped my baby grow. Thank you!!

I absolutely love Wilcox! My oldest two sons went here and I loved it so much that when it was time to apply for my youngest, Wilcox was the only school I would put on the list. OneApp kept telling me there were other schools with openings, but I did not care! I waited for an opening and I’m so happy I did. They are professional, but personable and communication is excellent. These ladies really went above and beyond for my oldest when he had a seizure, which I can never repay them for! My kids learn so much from here because everyone is passionate about what they do!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Ms. Danielle and Ms.Lorielle. From the moment my child started in their class, it was clear that these two are not just teachers—they are truly passionate educators who care deeply about their students. Their patience is unmatched. They take the time to listen to every child, making each one feel valued and heard. My child has grown so much under their guidance, not only academically but also socially and emotionally. Both ladies have such a warm and nurturing approach, always creating a welcoming environment where the children feel safe and excited to learn. They also bring incredible energy and creativity to the classroom, making every activity engaging and fun. Together, they are a dream team! Their ability to work collaboratively and maintain such a positive and structured environment speaks volumes about their dedication and professionalism. I feel so fortunate to have my child in their care. Thank you Ms.D and Ms. L for your kindness, patience, and the incredible impact you’ve made in shaping young minds. You are truly extraordinary!
