Wonderful community daycare and pre-k school. Our kiddo lives it here and the community of parents and teachers is great too.

The staff are kind, creative, and professional. They come prepared each day with activities that are educational and fun for the kids. They also provide constant updates and photos using Facebook so you can see what your little one is doing throughout the day. Our daughter is always excited to go back the next day. They truly are community based run by real people. They care about you as individuals. We cannot recommend Green Lane enough. Definitely put them on your list of facilities to visit if you're looking. The care is phenomenal, and is actually cheaper than most other facilities in the area. So, choosing Green Lane, for us, was a no-brainer. 5 stars all around.

A work in progress. A school with potential. Decisions are tied to the church since it is in their property which has certain limitations that aren’t completely known to the parents. Credit to the admins who are doing their best to bring a variety of activities and raise it out of the shadows. My son is generally happy there and will be enrolling my daughter when she’s two. Update on my review. My daughter was requested to attend since my son was there. However we were told late that they had no room and no explanation. Internal drama with the admin and the « parent association » likely the culprit. Unfortunate since we liked Fran and had some nice offerings like soccer shots and visiting petting zoo.

I recently worked on a project for the school, and the staff could not have been more engaging, professional, and enthusiastic! It was truly a breath of fresh air working diligently but in such a positive and constructive way. See for yourself! Check out Green Lane Nursery School!

The teachers are so creative and nurturing and have made our 3-year old's transition to preschool a positive experience. The "extras" like yoga with Ms. Colette are well-loved and anticipated each week.
