What Parents Say
Merrimack Valley Christian Day School receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from parents, with most praising the caring teachers, creative curriculum, and positive impact on children's development. One parent raised serious concerns about a teacher's physical treatment of a young child and the director's delayed communication about the incident.
My daughter attended MVCDS for 3 years and absolutely loved it! The teachers are kind, caring and compassionate. They focus on social skills and helping children work through their problems which in my opinion is one of the most important things a child can learn these days. Their curriculum is creative and makes learning fun. This school is also amazing at involving families with special events such as Grandparents Day, Potluck, Family picnic, an amazing Christmas concert and more. I could go on and on about this school and would absolutely recommend it to all my friends and family!
We absolutely LOVE this daycare. My daughter has flourished since she started here. She runs into the building and adores every single teacher! The building is clean and safe. I wish I had found it sooner and I recommend it to anyone looking for childcare! I feel amazing knowing my daughter is very well taken care of and loved!
Both of my children have attended this school and I could not be more grateful for it. My son graduated from MVCDS in 2012. Upon entering kindergarten his teacher was quickly impressed with how advanced he already was when it came to his reading comprehension and social skills. When my daughter was ready for preschool there was no doubt we would have her attend MVCDS as well. She is currently enrolled and the school has only gotten better. They have the friendliest staff and my daughter has loved every teacher she has had. The teachers are constantly coming up with new activities to do with the kids, so they are always learning in a variety of fun and interesting ways. The entire staff truly seems committed to helping each child reach their fullest potential. The students also get plenty of outside play when the weather cooperates, or will play in the gym if it is not. My daughter is always excited to go each and every morning. It has been such a positive experience since we first started at this school a decade ago and we will certainly miss it when it comes time for my daughter to graduate and head off to kindergarten. I cannot recommend this school enough.
The facility is very clean and the majority of the staff was great. I am however surprised to see that the Director is still there. A teacher was terminated due to her treatment of some of the younger children, my child included (physically yanked my 2.5y old child and squeezed face). I only found out about this when I decided to withdraw since a family member offered to help us out. The incident had happened more than 2 weeks prior to our withdrawal and the Director states that she saw my husband and not me and she wanted to tell me. I never received a call or email indicating that she wanted to speak to me. So again, strange that she is still a director...
The best school I have ever placed my child at. I also worked there after placing my son and I got to see first hand the love these teachers truly have for the children
