Briarwood Child Academy

Our daughter started at Briarwood Child Academy when she was only 6 weeks old. Saying that it was hard to leave her for the first time would be a drastic understatement. But like most moms, I had to return to work. After looking at multiple daycare centers in the area, choosing Briarwood was an easy decision. Their school was clean, spacious, knowledgeable, and you could tell that it had a very close knit community feeling. The teachers there have been nothing short of amazing. We even jokingly call them our "co-parents" to everyone we know. The school has a set curriculum, even for the infants, to make sure every child is developing the proper age appropriate skills. In addition to a great team and facility, they have a mobile app that you can download and see what your infants schedule was for the day! This was great relief for a new mom like myself. When they ate, what they ate, when they had a bottle, how many ounces, diaper changes, etc. You can even message back and forth with the teachers to check-in without seeming totally crazy. And nothing brightens up a work day more than having pictures of your child playing and learning sent directly to your phone! I can not say enough good things about Briarwood Child Academy and will always think of their staff as part of our family. I would recommend them to any one who wants to ensure the care, safety, and excelled learning and development for their child.

My grand daughter always left Briarwood with a dirty face. Lunch time they don't hand the kids there lunch and then a snack. They give the kids there lunches and let them eat what they want, in no particular order. Explains why they say double up on the snacks. Briarwood says it's a pre-k environment. My grand daughter never brought home pictures that she made or work that she has done. The day care she attended prior was a distance away. If it wasn't for the distance she would have stayed in that day care.

We moved my daughter to Briarwood Child Academy a little over a year ago. It was the best decision we could have made for her. She went from being extremely shy with a distaste for going to "school" to a child who is excited every day to go see her friends and teachers. She has improved both academically and socially. Her teachers as well as the other staff at Briarwood have always made themselves available to discuss any concerns I have had or to answer my questions. Even when we moved away from North Smithfield, we kept our daughter at Briarwood. I just can't imagine moving her away from somewhere that we love so much.

Briarwood Child Academy is full of an excellent staff of teachers. The new director Kim, and Peter have made the place feel welcoming. The Around the World Curriculum that has been developed is great for the kids. I would recommenced attending this daycare to anyone.

Briarwood child academy is a fantastic place to take your children. My daughter is in infants, the teachers are caring and great with her and the other kids! I would recommend this daycare because I know my daughter is safe!
