St. Alban'S Early Childhood Center

Our son has been enrolled here since he was 4 months old and is now three, thriving in preschool. We love the staff and administration, and the curriculum aligns perfectly with our needs. Since joining the SAECC family, we've consistently met or exceeded every age-appropriate milestone. And Although it can be challenging to be away from your child for long hours, the daily progress reports, complete with pictures and videos, make it feel like you're right there with them. We also the enjoy the inclusive and community based events that the school Provides - giving us parents the opportunity to connect with staff as well as other parents. SAECC is honestly the best choice in the district!!

My family has had a wonderful experience at SAECC. My son is 4 and could have gone to his local public school this year but because of the superior attention, care, and enrichment that he receives at SAECC, I chose to keep him there (at a cost) until kindergarten. The teachers are the absolute best. Even teachers that have never had my son in their class know his name and greet him with smiles and hugs every day. It truly feels like a family. The facility is beautiful with an amazing new playground and access to the school gym for physical activities when the weather is bad. The classrooms are decorated with care, showing the teacher's and administration's commitment to creating a warm and welcoming environment. During the school year, the students have several enrichment activities, including weekly Spanish and twice-weekly STEM/STEAM in the cutest little science lab you've ever seen. This is the only daycare I know with a separate teacher and classroom dedicated just to STEM/STEAM! The summers are even more fun with twice-weekly water play, field trips, and special activities like science shows! I will definitely continue to send my son to their summer camp after he graduates from SAECC until he ages out. I would certainly encourage anyone looking at SAECC to schedule a visit to make their own determination. The love and community that exist are palpable upon entering the building and a visit is worth far more than a single angry online review from someone who admits to breaking their contract and being sent to collections and begins with this is "100% honest"...which is kind of like starting a sentence with "no offense"....

Our son has been at SAECC for a little over a year and he is thriving! The level of care and effort that the teachers and staff of the school give to their students (ie, "friends") and their families is exceptionally high. Every teacher (including those who are not my son's classroom's teachers) we see during drop-off/pick up take time to greet him and the environment is very warm. We receive consistent updates on the class's activities, which include a good balance of learning and playing (and learning through playing!) Every part of their day is thoughtfully planned and each child is celebrated. We hope to stay through pre-K!

We have two children at SAECC and couldn't be happier with the center. One of our children has serious dietary restrictions due to an autoimmune disease and the center has done an amazing job keeping her safe and healthy. We are so grateful for the loving staff, the enriching learning environment, and, most importantly, that I know my kids are safe and happy every day. I highly recommend SAECC.

I can't express how grateful I am for SAECC! From the moment we enrolled my child at 5 months (now 3), we knew we had found a special place. The warm and welcoming atmosphere immediately put us at ease, and it quickly became clear that this center is dedicated to fostering both learning and emotional growth. The teachers at SAECC are truly exceptional. Their love and care for each child is evident in everything they do. They create a nurturing environment where my child feels safe, supported, and excited to learn. My child has made incredible progress with his language skills and social interactions (e.g. expressing boundaries, sharing, sitting at the table when we're eating at a restaurant). The activities are engaging and age-appropriate, making learning feel like a fun adventure. It’s amazing to see how much they are developing socially, emotionally, and cognitively! I also love the open communication with the staff. They keep us updated on our child’s progress with quarterly report cards and are always available to discuss any concerns. It’s clear that the teachers are passionate about what they do and that they love the children. SAECC has become a second home for my child, and I'm so grateful we get to start another journey at the school with the newest addition to the family. I couldn't be happier with our experience. I highly recommend it to any parent looking for a loving, enriching environment for their little ones! Thank you, SAECC, for everything you do!
