Fundamentals Early Learning Center

Kim Stuart Davis

“These people are like family! I love how much they love my children. The staff is amazing and knowledgeable and continue to strive to be better caretakers and educators. Sure, it’s a little more expensive than other daycares in the area, but the peace of mind I have everyday knowing my kids are in a safe loving place is well worth it. LOVE LOVE LOVE OUR FUNDAMENTALS FAMILY!”

Stormi Bodin

“We love Mrs. Rhonda and all of the staff! Mrs. Rhonda has really worked with our daughter and her anxiety. In addition, her speech has improved dramatically! The facilities are clean, well maintained, and the staff truly cares about your baby. I highly recommend!”

Mackenzie Thibodeaux

“As a full time working parents, there is nothing we want more than to know our baby is taken care of and loved on. Fundamentals instantly makes you feel welcomed, the teachers are friendly and inviting, and I love that my son has been following a curriculum starting at 2 years old. He loves going to school AND loves his teachers! I can’t say enough awesome things about Trish and Kaci- they are true angels and devote their days making sure your kids are well rounded and loved. We love them and feel like they are a part of our family. It takes a village to raise a child- and we are grateful that Fundamentals is a part of OUR village.”

Taylor Heikes-Westmoreland

” A HUGE shout out goes to Ms. Paige. Our girl hasn’t actually had her as a teacher, but Paige is a all hands on desk type of person. She is involved in all the rooms and you know she takes the time to get to know each child, when they know her by name without having her as a teacher. She is a key element to this school. We highly appreciate the education aspect of this school and that they push these kids to learn and behave.”

Macy Martin

“We have two boys (2 & 4) and have been at Fundamentals at since our youngest was 9 months!

We love knowing our kids are SAFE! We love all of the staff, seriously everyone becomes family and know they love our kids like their own!”

Breanna Berard

“Can’t say enough good things! Lots of parent / teacher communication to keep me informed. The facility is always clean and my baby is always well taken care of. I won’t hesitate to recommend to a friend.”

Leslie Hattaway

“My boys have been going here since they were both babies. The love and excellent care they’ve gotten has by far exceeded my expectations. This place has become a second home for us and everybody has become family.”

Missy Spencer

“Cannot say enough great things about fundamentals. Love every one there and my son is learning more and more everyday!”

Emily Schulin

“Our family has been part of fundamentals for about 2 years now. My son absolutely loves it here, he started when he was 2 and he’s 4 now and loves it!!!! The teachers are amazing and they truly deeply care about their kids❤️”

Casey Smith

“We absolutely adore everyone at fundamentals. Everyone has been so great when it comes to communication and taking care of the kiddos. We have been there for 2 years starting in the brown room and now in the red room about to go to the blue room. I refuse to go to any other daycare. Very clean, very nice workers, no complaints! We really love Trish and Kasey in the red room and we look forward to meeting the teachers in the blue room!”

Christi Rayne Brown

“Kensley started daycare here today and she was having a rough transition but I was so thankful for Mrs. Brandi for talking her through everything and easing her into her home classroom and not rushing her into it . Also thankful for Mrs. Jordan for answering my many questions and concerns . They have been so helpful already . Plus I picked Kensley up today and she was so happy and looks forward to coming back tomorrow . So that makes things so much better . Such a good first impression !!!”

Ronyell Dodson

“Always loved and took great care of my son, never had a worry when he was there! He loved going to school everyday.

Exceptional cleaning protocols in place!”

Sommer Williams

“My 2 youngest children have been here for over a year now. I can not tell you how unbelievably happy I am (and my children are) with this learning center. It is always clean. Breakfast always smells amazing in the mornings. The classrooms are well staffed with very caring teachers and assistants who adore our kids and are excellent about communicating concerns and praises with the parents. The indoor sand room and outdoor playground are beautiful and offer the kids lots of exciting play activities. There are additional gymnastics classes and art classes that the kids can opt into which are also a fun reward. My pre k student even took the fundamentals bus to the zoo on a great field trip last year. The administration staff is very friendly and involved with the kids and the Director is amazing. She is kind, patient, and knows each of our kids well. She finds solutions to concerns quickly.”

Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central

1 day ago

🩷🩷🩷8 years my family has been with Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central! They have done more than just “watched” my children. They have educated, loved, hugged, embraced, grown them and deeply cared for them.

I’d be lying if I said I have never questioned something. But I promise that every concern I have ever had was met with grace, heart felt compassion and the desire to address my worries.

Paige Marie Comeaux has been a God send to Fundamentals. She is the back bone to that place and cares about each one of those babies that step foot into that center. Fundamentals functions because of her.

I would say that at least 95% of the staff know my child by name and know each member of my family by name; even if my child isn’t in their class.

I honestly get sad, as I think about baby 2 leaving after this school year. A new chapter will start for him soon and then I’ll only have 1 left at Fundamentals. But these people here will always be family to me. #happy25years ... See MoreSee Less

Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central

1 day ago

With everything Wyatt Graves has built over the last 25 years, from real estate and construction to investing and mentoring other entrepreneurs, you might wonder why early childhood education is still such an important part of his world.

Because some investments are about a whole lot more than buildings and bottom lines.

In 2001, Wyatt opened his first childcare center at just 20 years old. He probably had no idea how many families, teachers, and children would become part of his story over the next 25 years.

And while his businesses have grown and changed, his belief in the importance of early childhood education hasn't.

Every day at Fundamentals, our teachers are helping little people learn BIG things. How to make friends, solve problems, gain confidence, and discover what they're capable of.

Wyatt has spent his career building businesses, but we're pretty proud of what he's helped build right here in Central ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less

Fundamentals Early Learning Center - Central

As we celebrate Wyatt's 25-year journey in childcare this month, we're sharing stories from the families who have been part of it. And this one from Lanee Hebert is exactly why those years mean so much.

Lanee shared:
"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Fundamentals Early Learning Center! Our family was a part of Fundamentals for 7 years, and I can truly say it was one of the biggest blessings for our children.

Over the past 7 years, we have watched our children learn, grow, and reach so many milestones, all while being surrounded by teachers and staff who genuinely love and care for them. As a parent, there is no better feeling than knowing your children are in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment every single day.

What makes Fundamentals so special is that it is more than just a daycare or learning center. It truly feels like family. The teachers and staff go above and beyond to make every child feel loved, encouraged, and supported.

After 7 years, I can confidently say that choosing Fundamentals Early Learning Center was one of the best decisions we have made for our family."

Twenty-five years of childcare experience is something we're proud to celebrate. But hearing what those years have meant to the families we've served? That's what makes this anniversary so special.

Because the real measure of what we've built isn't how many children have come through our doors. It's the place we get to hold in their lives long after they've left.

Thank you, Lanee, for trusting us with your babies for seven wonderful years and for sharing a piece of your family's story with us. ❤️ ... See MoreSee Less
