We have loved our time at the Shoe BCC! We feel so fortunate that this was our first experience with a daycare after a period of our son being able to stay at home with me - the teachers and aides are all incredibly skilled, compassionate, creative, energetic, and loving. And the office staff/directors have been very helpful and knowledgeable with everything (and love our son too!). They all made the transition to daycare successful and at the right pace for us all!
This is the best daycare in the area. The teachers are wonderful, super warm and take great care of the kids. They have very low staff turnover and work really well with parents to accommodate special needs. The kids are all happy and seem to be doing well. My kids have been there from 3 months to Kindergarten.
Excellent emotional, social, and developmentally appropriate care. Our two kids LOVED the Shoe from ages 3mo to Kindergarten. The staff is amazingly warm, engaged, and caring— their longevity and low turnover rates are unheard of in the industry. They are always coming up with new enrichment, from infant sensory play with paint to chaperoned walks in the park to an art show and field trip for the Pre-K, as well as child-led and built dramatic play centers that anchor learning curriculum (this year’s theme was space / rocket ship in Pre-K and my daughter can tell you more about the solar system and space than you likely ever learned in school). The babies sleep and eat better at school than at home and receive the warmest caregiver engagement, toddlers get help with potty training in a supportive and effective manner, and the preschoolers are HIGHLY ready for Kindergarten. To top it off, there is constant and open communication with parents, flexibility for specific circumstances, and a warm and supportive community where it’s easy to make friendships with other families. You are very lucky to get your kids to join the Shoe!!
I’ve heard nothing but wonderful things about The Children in the Shoe’s management, curriculum, and teachers. My sister worked here as a lead teacher for over a year and I don’t think she’d ever leave if it weren’t for relocating! My niece also attended the daycare at age 2 and loved her teachers, had so much fun, and learned a lot quickly. Definitely recommend The Shoe!
We have had an incredible experience with the directors and teachers for both our young children.
