We are incredibly grateful for Ivy Hedge and the safe space my son has been able to grow and be his best self. My son started at around 2.5 after being at an in-home daycare for 2 years. The growth that I saw in him immediately was astounding. His mood shifted from grumpy and irritable to excited and chatty because he was learning, growing, and having fun with his teachers and friends. He is more willing to try new things without getting so frustrated and his language has exploded. The team at Ivy Hedge also helped potty train after knowing him only a couple of weeks and it was a success! Ivy Hedge is a very special place that I am so glad my son is a part of.
My son transferred to this school with 3 months left in the year after having several horrible experiences at a neighboring school he had been at for almost two years (one incident requiring more than 12 stitches to his face and another incident where a bite that broke his skin went unnoticed and required 2 weeks of antibiotics). He also was fully potty trained and refusing to use the bathroom at his old school. Since he started at Ivy Hedge, Day 1, he has had no issues using the potty and has been flourishing and eating appropriately. We were able to drop food therapy (he had not gained any weight in 1.5 years) and suddenly gained 4 pounds his first month at Ivy Hedge. He comes home every day telling me how much he loves his "new school" and all of his friends and activities he does on a daily basis. He is captivated with the curriculum and the programs available to him such as soccer shots, the fun bus, and music time. The teachers treat the children like they are their own and there is so much love to go around, you can just feel it at drop off and pick up. I cannot wait for my daughter to attend Ivy Hedge when she is old enough! We are only sorry that they do not have a summer program, as we are very sad for the year to end. 5 STARS for Ivy Hedge!
Ivy Hedge has been a great place for my daughter who joined when she was 3 in the nursery class and will be continuing through the Pre-K program. Not only has my daughter excelled and learned so much during these early years, but you can truly tell the staff and the administration at Ivy do love all the kids, are beyond so kind and helpful to us parents, and have our children's best interest at heart. I would highly recommend Ivy Hedge!
I have a 16 month old and I am very happy with the care they are giving him. As someone who has tried a few different daycares in the area I can say what’s sets this one apart from the others is the staff. They are attentive and compassionate to the parents needs as well as the child. They make me feel welcome and part of the family and that means so much to my wife and I. They should be very proud of the job they are doing. A+
Safe and happy place. We came here after a negative experience at a different preschool... this place is light years better. Great ownership and staff, and a safe place for crunchy kiddos.
