What Parents Say
Ivy Hill Preschool receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from most parents, with nine 5-star reviews praising the caring staff, strong curriculum, safety standards, and director Barbara's leadership. However, one 2-star review raises serious concerns about staff turnover, director conduct, inconsistent policies, and inadequate child supervision.
My son attends Ivy Hill Preschool and we are thrilled with his experience. Barbara does an excellent job of running the school. The teachers and aides are all kind and engaged with the children. Barbara gives great attention to safety and cleanliness. My son's vocabulary and social skills have progressed so quickly since he started attending Ivy Hill - we are so impressed! The teachers follow a preschool curriculum that includes many planned activities, art projects, skill building activities and more. Barbara does a wonderful job of being aware of everything that happens in the school and she takes action when something is not right. Knowing that she is on top of things makes me feel comfortable that my child is in the best environment for his safety and development. We are grateful to have found a wonderful school and recommend it to our friends.
Our son has been going to Ivy Hill since he has been 6 months old and is now leaving to start kindergarten. We have always been satisfied with the care and attention that has been given to us. The director has created an environment where children are comfortable to learn and supported personal values of kindness, respect and honesty as well as social values such as helping others in need. The teachers are caring, communication is good and we always knew our son was safe at school. I was always amazed by how well the staff knew my son, his likes and dislikes and how sweet all of the children have been in his classes over the years. We will definitely miss our time at Ivy Hill.
I feel so comfortable and at ease when I drop my child off at Ivy Hill each day. The teachers are so compassionate and attentive to each and every child. Miss Barbara is very organized, and accommodating to all. She makes sure to really get to know you and your child. You can rest assure your child will be in a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. It should be important to a parent that their child enters the school with a smile each day, and leaves at the end of the day with a smile. Your child will do just that at Ivy Hill!
My daughter started at Ivy Hill at 3 months old and continued there until elementary school. It was a wonderful experience! She was more than prepared for kindergarten. As a working mother, I couldn't ask for my child to be better taken care of while I was at work. The curriculum as well as the social skills that she learned were more than I could have ever asked. It's a safe, happy and loving atmosphere that I would recommend to any parent. I'm so grateful that I received the trusted help that fit perfectly into my working lifestyle as a single mother....
My wife and I had a wonderful experience at Ivy Hill, it really made us upset that we had to take our daughter out of the school because we are moving out of the area. Barbara runs an amazing school, all of the children are respectful and engaged. Barbara and the teachers were very envolved in the development of our child. Dropping our daughter off at ivy hill was like leaving her with a family. I cannot recomend this daycare/preschool enough and my wife and I as first time parents are beyond satisfied with our experience.
