The Neighborhood Child Care Ctr

NC3 is so special. All three of my girls attended this wonderful school and I couldn't be happier with our experience from start to finish. The teachers are all phenomenal - so patient, gentle and caring. You can tell they really love what they do. There is something so beautiful about the way they use nature to help the kids learn and grow. I also love their play based approach and their focus on social emotional development. They create a safe space for kids to be kids. I honestly could go on and on about how much I love this school. We are so grateful to Meghan and her wonderful teachers!

As a former teacher myself, I spent a lot of time researching preschool options for my son and I am SO glad I chose NC3P! This place is truly special. The teachers have shown my son so much love and compassion, making me feel comfortable that he was well taken care of even during his most difficult seperation anxiety phase. His confidence and social skills have blossomed so much since he started there two years ago. I love their unique approach to running their school and the amount of time the children get to spend outdoors exploring nature--it is truly a gift I am so thankful for. This school is truly such a unique, magical place and I would recomend it to any parent looking for a high quality preschool program!

Without a doubt, the best child care center in the area! The staff is caring, attentive, and truly invested in each child's growth and well-being. What sets this center apart is its emphasis on outdoor learning and play. Every day, the children get ample time outside—exploring nature, engaging in hands-on activities, and developing important social and physical skills in a fun, fresh-air environment. From nature walks to outdoor crafts and group games, the program encourages curiosity and active learning in a way that traditional indoor settings simply can't match. The facilities are safe, well-maintained, and designed to foster creativity and independence. If you're looking for a child care center that values exploration, adventure, and a love for the outdoors, this is the place to be! Highly recommend. 🌿🌞

We love NC3 for our daughter and can't wait till the younger one is able to attend. While we loved the prior owners who ran the school for 40 years, we have been very happy with the new ownership and some of the changes they've made to the school. It's very well run and the staff is amazing. I love the structure of the school where they mix ages 2.5-5 years which allows the younger ones to learn from the older and the older ones to help the younger. The kids also rotate through the different themed rooms throughout the day so they don't get bored. My daughter typically attends for just the preschool program but she's gone all day as well and doesn't want to leave.

We love nc3p! Our son has gained so much confidence and independence since he started 9 months ago. We initially wanted to give him an opportunity to socialize and improve communication but we’ve also noticed so much growth and learning in other areas. My husband and I are continually impressed with the creative ways the teachers facilitate learning through play. Our son talks about each one of the teachers at home. They make him feel special and loved. He’s excited to go in the morning and when we pick him up at the end of the day he’s happy-which was not the case with the daycare he attended previously. We’re so grateful for nc3p and would highly recommend to anyone considering for their child.
