Espree is the best preschool experience you can give your child, hands down. My son has attended Espree since he was 3 and has just absolutely THRIVED here. The teachers are wonderful, they have a great curriculum, and fun events and activities each month. I really appreciated that as my child advanced beyond his grade level, his teachers made a pointed effort to continue challenging him in different ways. I also like that they continue curriculum throughout the summer months. I have no doubt that my child is ready academically and socially for kindergarten and would recommend Espree to anyone looking for a great place for your preschooler ☺️
Espree is an incredible child care and learning environment. The programs are highly structured (without being rigid) and empowers little ones to take control while simultaneously instilling proper etiquette, personal responsibility and respect. The staff is exceptional and they have extremely low turn over with most teachers having been there for 10+ years. Their summer programs are fantastic as they include daily swim lessons and plenty of recreation and arts/crafts to give my daughter a well-balanced, fun summer break. Though I was initially reluctant to move my daughter from an in-home daycare to a 'daycare facility', Espree has far exceeded my highest expectations.
This is a wonderful school. I wish we knew about it when my older son was younger that he could reap the benefits from such a great academic environment. My younger son is years ahead of the learning curve for kindergarten. This is truly a learning environment and NOT a daycare. The teachers are real academics and many of the certified as teachers in some capacity unlike most commercial or in home daycare options in the area. Additionally the teachers and the owner, Denise Blessinger, genuinely care for each an every child, they are not simple dollar signs. Denise contunially facilitates programs and plays and true graduations for all of her students. We will dearly miss taken our son to Espree, it is such a wonderful place!
Amazing school. All 4 of my girls have attended this school. We have been a part of this school for 16 years. Highly recommend it. The Kindergarten program is a must. All of my kids love to read thanks to Ms. Paris. I cannot say enough about this school.
4 y.o. son currently going. Teacher turnover is best I have seen. Last teacher hired some 8-10 years ago. All that I have seen are spectacular with the kids. They have in-house cook that fixes decent food and snacks. Pool for swimming lessons during the summer. We have done others such as creme de la creme and this school beats them all hands down. They do not advertise because they do not need to. They count on word of mouth similar to Tesla.
