My child went here for preschool and it was such an awesome experience. Miss Nicole is so beyond awesome and made such a wonderful impact on my son. He had so much fun at school everyday and he learned so much. Brookhaven day camp preschool is such a unique place and I will definitely be sending my other children here as well. Thank you all for a great year!
I just want to leave a quick short review I regards to my grandchild who attended Brookhaven . My grandchild is thriving in school and we owe it to Miss Nicole for installing a love for learning in my grandchild . My grandchild learned so much but most important my grandchild learned how to handle their emotions and love school. Miss Nicole was always happy , loves her job and I think everyone can tell that who meets her . Good job Brookhaven and Miss Nicole and Thank you !!
Warning! Stay away!! We were assigned this pre-k through Longwood and it was a nightmare. They judged my child from the moment he walked in the door. My child didn't adjust to the new school within the first week, and that's when it all began. They shouldn't be working with small children; they clearly have no patience. A parent teacher conference was called after 2-weeks (on my 3 almost 4 year old child). They didn't even give him a chance to adjust to a new place/people. It was made very clear that my child wasn't welcome there. Ms. Tracy stated OVER AND OVER she has 21 students, and how much work that is. She cant provide my son the time she felt he needs. Mind you my son has been in daycare since he was 6-months old; and wasnt ever an issue. They have a culture here; if your child doesn't fit the cookie cutter - they push to get you out. Longwood is aware of the culture they have; I am not the only parent having issues with this awful place. Ms. Tracy gave me reports about my child at the door in front of other parents (and in front of him); which can't be legal. Discussing my child in front of others wasn't appropriate or professional. The lack of communication all day and week long and choosing to "talk" to me at the door in front of others was poor timing. My son would be excited to see me, asking me things and the teacher would be talking over him to tell me how "bad" he was. Other parents would just look at me. One day my child "has special needs" and the next day "we teach independence". If my child has needs; lets treat him that way. They went back and forth with us - and it was nothing short of confusing. I had a routine with my son and things were sailing smoothly; Ms. Kelley would try to intimidate me on days by greeting me and telling me how I would do things and change them. This would disrupt my child, and the routine. Just consider this your warning! They have no business running a pre-school. Side Note: The housekeepers son rides around on their golf cart while they are cleaning inside the buildings, doing donuts on the lawn, and flying onto the roadway where you walk with your child, or drive. The boy is about 10 or 12 years old. I wont even get into the upkeep of the old buildings or lack there of....
My daughter attended the UPK program at Brookhaven country day camp/preschool. Her teacher (Miss Nicole) was kind and had a heart of gold for all her students. My daughter learned so much over the 10 months of school. Miss. Nicole was fun and loving and really helped my daughter to grow in areas that she was struggling in. My daughter loved going to school here and always looked forward to going back the next day. She loved her teachers and all the friends she made. She now attends the summer camp and is having a blast!
I'm a former camper and now my children get to experience the amazing place that is Brookhaven Country Day Camp. There are so many activities including American Red Cross swim lessons! My children loved their counselors and are counting down the days until camp to start again! We love BCDC!
