What Parents Think

“Best preschool ever. My daughter is 2.5 years old and she loves hanging out with the older kids. The children spend half of their day inside and half outside which is wonderful. Often when I pick up my child, I find her talking to one of the teachers and they're looking at leaves, rocks, etc. I love how much time they spend on sensory activities and how each child gets 1-1 time with the professors.
If you're looking for a place that focuses on independent child development and creativity, this is it!"
