Noah's Ark Early Development Center has been a staple of the Forney, Texas, community for over 25 years. With our Christian curriculum, preschool-level academic work, early exposure to languages, and extracurricular activities, we offer the most comprehensive childcare in the area. I have been employed with Noah's Ark for over 20 years and have served as Director since 1998.
I began my career working with children when I was 20 years old. Prior to my daycare career, I worked within the Forney Independent School District for five years. Joni began working at Creative Children's Center as a Pre-K teacher, and Jill soon joined her. Over time, Joni was promoted to Director, and together with Jill, they handled the day-to-day operations of the business.

My grandbaby got severly dehydrated from going here and ended up in the emergency room for days because of the "teacher" hailey in room 4 who only gave water at snack thats it because she doesnt want to change wet diapers . one cup of water. We would pick him up and he would beg for a drink at the end of the day mind you he's 2 years old. Poor quality workers and hailey should most definitely be fired. There is a boy that bites in her class and she told my daughter in law that she wishes that annoying little boy didnt even go there. His name was ben. So if bens mom is reading this she mistreats

We have had an amazing experience at Noah's Ark. The director genuinely cares about our children and their experience while in the center. She addresses issues quickly and fairly and keeps us informed. The teachers are loving, showing a genuine interest in each of our children, and do a fantastic job with the curriculum (my 22 month old knows his shapes and colors, can count to 20 without help, and knows the alphabet (among other things)). I would definitely recommend Noah's Ark!

I have never been more satisfied in the quality, attention to detail, and professionalism of this establishment and I personally highly recommend this to any family in need of Daycare services. They have so many activities as well as educational tools to teach your child here. Thank you Noah's Ark!

Noah's Ark has been a blessing to our family. My first daughter started going there when she was 5 months old. We are so thankful that we found such a loving daycare for our children to attend. Our girls are always taken care of and the teachers are amazing. My oldest daughter is learning so much and continues to surprise me everyday with what she learns. Ms. Pat and Ms. Savannah are always so welcoming when we walk in. We are so blessed to have had so many teachers that love our girls and continue to spoil them everyday. I can't imagine a better place for my girls to go.

I love Noah's Ark. They have taken great care of all 3 of my boys. Sometimes when I pick my toddler up he wants to stay!! It's always a good feeling to know he actually enjoys being there. My boys have had some amazing teachers over the years that seem to truly love kids. Mrs. Pat is the best. I know that she will make sure our kiddos are well taken care of.

My children have gone to Noah's Ark for almost 4 years now and have enjoyed the loving environment and people that have watched over them. The staff has always been accommodating to my requests and concerns and seem to genuinely care for my family and my children's development. The pre-K program is excellent and have successfully prepared my two oldest for kindergarten. My children have also been able to participate in several extracurricular programs (dance, basketball..ect) that Noah's Ark has during the school day...which is a time saver for working moms! Noah's Ark is a place that allows me

My child has attended Noah’s Ark for the past 4 years. We have had a wonderful experience. The environment is always neat and clean. Staff are very friendly and professional. The childcare is best in town. I never have any doubts or worries when my child is in their care. He’s learned so much in the time he’s been there. Their curriculum is structured and balanced to promote age appropriate learning but still allow for a child to have fun. My family feels blessed and appreciative of Ms. Pat and her staff at Noah’s Ark. My child will have a strong learning foundation thanks to them!!
