A Good Start Inc is a family-owned preschool in Columbia, Missouri with consistently excellent reviews. Parents praise the staff for being loving yet firm, providing strong academic preparation that leaves children ahead for kindergarten, and creating a safe, welcoming environment where children thrive developmentally and socially.
My daughter joined A Good Start right after turning two and graduated from A Good Start this year. The teachers and staff have always been firm but loving and their attention to personal development has always been top tier. We will miss the environment and the Good Start family dearly!
I can't recommend this place enough! Family owned and operated, the staff is amazing at what they do. They are so loving towards the kids. They are firm yet gentle with the kids. I never felt uncomfortable dropping my kids off, I knew they would be safe. My kids love coming here every morning. They hug their teachers and talk about all the fun things they do every day. My oldest came from an in home daycare and was very behind for his age. In less than a year, they got him caught up and he was thriving when he started Kindergarten. Both my kids also started eating more variety of foods after starting here.
We LOVE A Good Start Preschool! My daughters have been attending for the past 2 years and we are so sad to be graduating and moving on. The admin and staff are nothing short of amazing. They are firm, fair, and so loving! They pour all they have into the children and it shows! Thank you Mr. Jonathan, Ms Joanne, Ms.Christy, Ms. Alicia, and EVERYONE so much for guiding and loving my girls for the last 2 years!
Both of my children have attended A Good Start from the age of 2 onward. My daughter just graduated her Pre K program and my son just finished 3rd grade at CPS. We were with them through COVID, CPS effectively cancelling kindergarten, and so much more. I can’t say enough wonderful things about everyone involved with this school. My son STILL loves coming in and seeing everyone and getting hugs from his old teachers. He has so many wonderful memories there and loves when he bumps into his old friends who also have younger brothers and sisters enrolled at A Good Start. The family that owns and operates this school is incredible. They love each child enrolled there as their own. If you’re searching for a place where your child will be safe, loved, and educated, this is the spot. We’re sad to not have any more kids to send there!
The best!! Both of our kids attended and not only loved preschool but were fully ready for kindergarten! The owners and staff are very caring and love what they do. Highly recommend!
