We LOVE Helen Walton. I know without a doubt that my daughter will be taken care of as if they were the teachers' own children. The food is fresh and healthy. Our main teacher has a Masters in Education. She talks about her teachers and can't wait to see them!
We LOVE Helen Walton! My kiddos have learned so much and they offer so much in terms of social development, physical development, and kindergarten preparedness. It was a LONG wait with our first (about 20 months), however, we knew this going in and the wait is totally worth it. Almost all the teachers have a degree or are working toward a degree in a related field. I am also impressed that the heads of each department, the enrollment coordinator, the secretary, so many people know my kids personally even though they have hundreds there. They really take the time to get to know our family which means a lot! A+ school!
Edit: Great place still and awesome new facility, but now possibly the most expensive daycare in the entire state as we had a 60% tuition increase on 4/1/19. No longer an affordable option for me and the dozens of other families who were forced out from a ~$500 monthly increase. One of the best children's centers in the area and more affordable than any of the options that are arguably "better" in terms of curricula and kindergarten preparedness. There is a long waitlist though but it's more than worth it. The staff doesn't turnover ever few weeks, all of the teachers have been there for a long time and are great.
Hellen Walton is absolutely fantastic for my son. They do a very good job with him as an infant on the daycare side and as he gets older they have excellent pre-school facilities as well. They use a carefully-constructed curriculum for all age groups that emphasizes physical, social, and cognitive development. The teachers are fantastic as well. We couldn't be happier!
Some of the teachers are nice but it’s more of a daycare rather than a pro-school. They don’t work on teaching the kids or seem to have any kind of curriculum. The front office is very poorly run and most of them are not very friendly. Our of the 3 pre-schools my kids have gone to this one is by far the worst.
