Parents' Comments

Parent #1
Staff is very friendly and down to earth. Administrative staff is very well spoken and take care of the task on hand. They are always available to speak. Infant program is outstanding and keep the children smiling and busy at all times. I have my child in the infant program since he was 3 months and now is in the Infant 2 class room and he simply adores the staff.

Parent #2
Strength: teachers in Toddler room 2
Weaknesses: outdated toys, no academic program (for preschool), no outside play area, no parent or parent teacher conferences, no respect for parents and their concerns.

Parent #3
Some of the teachers can be very rude to parents, others are always pleasant. Often tend to argue and disagree with the advice of doctors. The only plus about this school is their late hours and the fact that they are very strict in who can pick up your child.

Parent #4
Our school is child centered with learning centers such as blocks, dress up, etc.
