We loved GSEC with our first child, so when it was time to enroll our second, we were excited and at peace knowing he would be in the very best hands. Our family is also big fans of Ms. Banky. Her welcoming smile and loving care is combined with security awareness and tangible faith. Truly, what more could a parent ask for?

As a parent, I was very disappointed with this school. On my daughter’s second day, I expected the staff to help her feel comfortable, but instead, she was ignored. No one greeted her or offered support to ease her shyness. What concerned me even more was seeing that when some children were crying, the staff just let them sit and cry without comfort or guidance. For me, that shows a lack of care and attention that every child deserves. My daughter is not new to being in a school setting—she goes to Sunday class and also attends French class, and she does just fine there. She may be shy at first, but with a little warmth and encouragement, she opens up quickly. Sadly, that basic nurturing environment wasn’t present here. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this school for families looking for a supportive and caring atmosphere for their children.

Love GSEC and the staff/teachers! My son started out really shy and quiet. He loved to play on his own since he's the only child. But after a few months, he started playing with his classmates and made friends. The teachers take their time with the kids, to get to know them and help them get out of their shell. My son loves them all! Shout out to Mrs. Merchant, Mrs. Banky, Ms. Kennedy, Ms. D, Ms. Lincoln, Ms. Holt.

We're thoroughly impressed with GSEC! They've done an outstanding job with our child, and we truly appreciate their partnership in our child's educational journey. Compared to our previous experiences with daycare, GSEC stands out for its exceptional staff. We'd like to extend special recognition to Ms. Banky, Ms. Merchant, Ms. Holtz, Ms. Chandler, Ms. Smith, and every staff member who has been excellent in their care and dedication. We highly recommend GSEC to anyone seeking top-notch childcare. Thank you, GSEC, for all that you do!
