Parents' Comments
Parent #1
Children's World in Northgate is absolutely wonderful. The care and dedication of the staff totally alleviates any worries I have. I know that my daughter will be nurtured and taken care of when I have to be away. Children's World is a daycare facility, but they have an exceptional preschool program. When my daughter first started she was a little over two and didn't talk. Now, she's 4 1/2 and she's ready to start Kindergarten. They put her in a prereading course where my daughter is starting to read. The preschool program they utilize is the same one the Seattle Public Schools use for Kindergarten, so the kids coming out of Children's world know what needs to be known by the end of Kindergarten, before they even start. I highly recommend Children's World in Northgate for daycare/prescholl needs of parents in the Seattle area.
