Hear from our parents

We are very happy with the teachers and the kind staff.
Ariuka A., Ellicott City

Teachers give individual attention to our kids; very clean; our kids love it!
Alyssa U., Ellicott City

The teachers are wonderful. Classroom activities seem age appropriate. Love that you provide snacks and lunch. Communication between front office and parents could use some improvement. All of the additional activities seem superfluous and like an excuse for significant tuition increase.
Emily R., Ellicott City

Always going above and beyond :)
Amy E., Ellicott City

Quality and trustworthy
Jessica P., Ellicott City

I truly feel like my child is loved by her teachers and the staff. She is thriving. Her teachers are transparent when issues arise. The school is clean and when outbreaks occur, we are quickly notified.
Devin F., Ellicott City

Very caring staff all around and lots of experiences to support development.
Tiffany V., Ellicott City

The teachers and director seem fantastic. Ms Shay and Ms. Adrienne have been so welcoming, caring, and friendly, as has Ms. Trisha. Having the food cooked on site is a big plus. The hands-on style of the owners really increases the feeling of responsiveness and caring management.
David N., Ellicott City
