Loved it!! Small World is a wonderful place. Ms, Elaine & her teachers show my daughter so much love, and affection. When I drop her off every morning I feel at ease knowing she will be taken care of. They constantly send me photos of my little angel playing and laughing all day long. I would not hesitate to tell anyone to go visit this Daycare. I am so confident with Small World School that when I moved I tried to stay as close as possible to Ms.Elaine so my daughter did not have to go to another daycare. Best place for your child to attend!

My 3 years old daughter has attended the Small World school during the summer while we attended US for vocation. This place touched us by its "beloved grandma house" atmosphere. I really liked the playground - large, shaded by trees, with sand and lots of facilities. Our kid liked it, this is what she really need from summer, not just sitting in conditioned room through the day. The school is 38 years old, the owner opened it for her own children but continued with making the school open for other kids. Good luck and Thank you!

A friend of mine recommended Small World School to me when my infant twins were about to be born. I took a ride over and met Ms. Elaine to talk about their program and have been traveling back and forth ever since. My children are now four years old. They have always been well cared for and treated like family. Ms. Elaine knows her business and runs a tight ship, but my kids are well disciplined and respect authority. In addition, they are learning pre-school lessons everyday and this year both my children signed their names to their Dad's Father's Day card -- what a proud moment! And believe me, I can not take any of the credit for these skills. Bringing my kids to Small World School feels more like going to grandmom's house, not school. There is plenty of time for that...for now I am happy my children get to learn and play in a safe, comfortable environment. Thank you Small World School and Ms. Elaine, for taking good care of my babies.

Great School! My baby just started attending recently and I have nothing but good things to say about it! The teachers are all caring and attentive to not only my child but the older children as well. When I have been in there at the end of the day to pick my baby up I have observed the teachers working together to come up with new fun and educational activites for the older kids. I also have talked to a lot of the parents who have kids attending. They are all happy with the school and a few attended the school themselves as children!!!

We've been taking our two foster children since February and the staff is amazing. Very helpful and caring and our four year old has a great time with the other kids and our 8 month old is thriving as well. Miss Elaine also has our back in regards to the system and Family Central. We appreciate all their hard work. Highly recommend.
