You wont find better day care classrooms and teachers in the area! The teachers are amazing and go above and beyond, the educational training and interpersonal skills they teach are wonderful. THe kids are ready for Kindergarten by the time are 4 years old (ready for school). If you engage the teachers are very open and will talk to you as much as you like about your child and what all is going on in the classroom. Most of them go the extra mile to get to know you and your child. My son has attended from ages 2-5 and I've seen only seen a child have a discontent moment there less than 5 times (I've always been in and out there to see and frequently pop-up). They set clear boundaries and use positive reinforcement to the point that its very rare there are any behavior issues in the classrooms at all.They ensure the kids there are well adjusted, content and engaged. The kids also form great friendships with each other and very supportive of each other. In my experience, it is worth every penny.

I agree with an earlier poster... Erin Thomson... Love this school, love the teachers and administrators. They do a great job. This is run as a school (learning center/educational institution) not as a daycare (keep kids quiet and diapers changed) Please check this place out, we will have our child here as long as possible. Best place we have found and lucky we did. Wait list roughly a year so get on it now! ages 17 mos and up. They include all meals in their tuition too. Cannot say enough great things, run very well.

We had our older two kids here for 2 years, before we moved from the area two years ago. We loved this school and were it still local to us, we would still be there. I found the place well-run, the teachers highly knowledgable and most notably in the early childhood field, with very low turn over. It was run as a school, not daycare. Loved them.
