What Families Are Saying

Nothing speaks louder than the experiences of our families. We’re proud to support children and caregivers across New Orleans, building strong relationships rooted in trust, care, and growth. Here’s what they have to say:

  • “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.”

    — BRANDON DEVEZIN, PARENT

  • “Choosing a daycare is never easy… From the moment I walked into Wilcox Academy, my worries started to fade. The warmth and professionalism of the staff, especially his teachers, Tirelle and Demonni, made all the difference.”

    — TIARA YOUNG, PARENT

  • “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. They are professional, but personable and communication is excellent.”

    — JORDAN JONES, PARENT

  • “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.”

    — D. ALEXANDER, PARENT

  • “As a teacher, I couldn’t be more pleased with the incredible experience I've had at Wilcox Academy. The school’s emphasis on individual growth and collaborative learning has been key to every child’s progress. Additionally, the communication between teachers and parents is excellent.”

    — DANIELLE M., PARENT

  • “My daughter is now 3-years-old and I’ve seen so much growth. She took her first steps at Wilcox and each day I’m amazed at her progress. But what I think I am most impressed with are the values that the teachers and directors instill in the students at Wilcox.”

    — LOTTIE JOINER, PARENT
