Chestnut Square Academy

My son is 2.5 and has been going to CSA since he was about 12 weeks old. I have nothing but great things to say about the way that these amazing ladies teach, care for, and love my precious boy. I remember crying the first day I dropped him off because I was so worried and unprepared for someone else to take care of him, but CSA quickly became family and I feel confident and secure sending him here each day. He always has a smile on his face when I drop him off and is excited to see his teachers and friends! We have another little one on the way and he will also be attending CSA. Thank you CSA for caring for our sweet boy!

I absolutely love CSA. We have been with them a little over a year now. My son is almost 3 and is so well spoken. He tells me about his day. I love all the teachers here. They truly do care about the kids! I love getting pictures and videos throughout the day and updates on what he ate throughout the day. They always are very clear on communicating with the parents and planning events that involve everybody. My son loves it there so much it's hard to get him to leave some days lol!! I'm so glad I chose CSA and I'm so thankful for all the staff!

If you want to feel like your child is being watched by a group of loving family members, take them here. There is so many great things to say about CSA I feel I could never list them all. My son comes home everyday with new words and good habits. They have also taught us some invaluable lessons on patients and consistency. Tracies team is always trying to stay on the same page as the parents so, as she says, there is no disconnect from school to home. And the activities. There are SO many and they change every day, week, and month. They also have a nice sized backyard which my toddler loves taking advantage of as well as slides, jungle gym, and small climbing tower. Cleanliness is their #2 priority next to safety (though Tracie makes no sacrifices for either). My son started happily washing his hands after being there for only a week, when previously he would kick and scream. A month ago, at 20 months he suprised my husband and I by counting his stacking cups not only in English but also in Spanish and french! She also has been very accommodating to my having a temporary disability after getting into a major accident, something most schools would not think twice about. If have any questions I would just call and ask for a tour, I'm sure you will be smitten once you see the location and meet the time (and did I mention it is so cute and super clean!)

From the moment our girl joined the infant center in January of 2023 we have seen her growth and development bloom! She is now 2.5 yo and thanks to the programs offered by CSA she loves counting, her ABC's, and will speak in (mostly) complete sentences. The staff always ensures the children are clean and wiped down after playing outdoors and before pick up time with fresh diaper for the ride home (they are supper thoughtful!). The meals provided always change and exposes the children to many different foods, making it easy at home to make one meal for dinner and include the child. Chestnut Square Academy offers programs and activities that have had a positive impact in our toddler. She looks forward to going to school every day and seeing her friends and teachers. Any time we have had a comment or a concern, the director and/or the assistant director would reach out to us, listened to us, and work with us or provide updates as needed. They send updates about our girl throughout the day and pictures on what is going on that day (whether is an activity or play time). They allow parents to be involved and volunteer when needed during field walks or center events. They have done an amazing job with Mother's, Father's, Thanksgiving, and Winter events that encourage involvement of extended family members. We could not be more happy with the staff at Chestnut Square Academy!!!

We simply love the curriculum and family-oriented nature of CSA. Our Sons (3 & 4 yo) began attending in April 2023 and we were worried about their transition from an at-home learning environment to a teacher led, classroom style, learning environment however within a week's time they were acclimated to the new teachers and flourishing with their new classmates. CSA does a magnificent job of challenging the youth to be the best versions of themselves as well as preparing them for the next grade advancement. The major component which earned our family's trust and respect is the high-level of transparency and accountability displayed from the Director to the Teachers and Caregivers. There was never a moment or day which we felt unsure about the safety or level of care our Sons, as well as the attending youth, were receiving while at CSA. They have so much fun learning with their classmates, they often continue playing 'school' when they get home. Our oldest is now 5, has just started kindergarten and the curriculum of CSA has him truly prepared to thrive in many educational topics such as: numbers, colors, shapes & letter recognition, spelling, sight words, writing basics, counting in Spanish and French, group collaboration & socialization. We highly recommend and champion CSA to any family who honestly are looking for a safe, transparent, trustworthy, and responsible preparatory learning academy for your child or children. Thank you, CSA Staff, for everything you've done for our family and those who will attend after reading this. Chestnut Square Academy, we appreciate you!
