My son started PRA at age 2 when I went back to work. He is almost 5 years old now and will continue to attend until he starts Kindergarten in September 2016. I was really happy with the owners, Nicole and Erica, who are involved as caregivers and not just business owners. A lot of the staff have been employed there consistently since they opened 3 years ago. I wish there could have been more male staff, but I understand early childhood education is a very female-dominated field. My son loves the staff and if he's ever had a problem with other students, PRA communicates very well with me about it. I can talk to staff daily about my son's activities and progress. As far as tuition, I think what I paid for the toddler and preschool rates were very reasonable (I have no experience with infant rates). Overall I am sad that my son has to leave PRA at all, but I'm confident he will do well in school because of the support, instruction, and fun he had at PRA.
My son Vic has been here since the age of 1 year’s old. Nicole and Erica are truly amazing with the staff, parents and especially with all of the children. My son loves the staff and I know he is happy there. On top of that, he does, arts & crafts, coloring, number’s, ABC’s and his social skills, speech have develop so much. I can’t express in writing, the joy my son gets when he comes here. This is truly his second home. I can’t be grateful enough to have such wonderful people in his life that truly care. I personal love the staff and Nicole rocks. Truly team players and always cleaning, they care about hygiene. I can’t remember how many times he was sick. So that was a plus for me. He will be turning 3 and I can’t thank you enough for making my baby boy smile 😊 everyday.♥️
My daughter has gone to PRA since she was 4 months old and I could not be happier with the love and care they give her everyday! She is always happy to be dropped off and Monika and Heather are angels. I highly recommend PRA!
I deposited the $50. They told me they will call if there is a spot available. I called back every month for 3 straight months and there weren’t any spot available for my daughter. It has been 2 years now and they never called me once. They pick and choose who they want there.
