Two of my three children attended 3 summers of Arthouse Preschool and absolutely loved it. At the…read moretime my family and I were new to WI. I couldn't believe how they made me feel so at ease with leaving my children with them, especially that we were so new to the area. Very helpful with my special needs child! The owner even offered other events that my younger (special needs) child could take part in. The owner is caring and undeniably 100% invested in the children under their care. My neighbor, down the street, even worked for them after my children attended. They were employed for several years and has always spoke highly of the school and the employer. I highly recommend the Arthouse Preschool to parents, for their children, as well as anyone who is looking for employment in a Creative Preschool environment.

From the owner: Nurture your child's mind, body, and spirit through the arts.read more

Despite giving notice, we were fraudulently charged for a full week of daycare in her last week. Repeated requests for a refund of the four days she was no longer in attendance have gone ignored by management. I would not trust this daycare with my bank information, let alone my children.

Question anything that seems off and watch the excuses fly! The things that were said to me when I raised my concerns to the owners attention I would never get away with at any job I'd be fired in an instant. There was a time when my child was being repeatedly bit and they really didn't do much to attempt the biting to stop. I was told a lot of different things but they never really followed through and then the one time he had a bite Mark on his arm they didn't know where it came from and the director told me that he bites himself all the time (I've never seen him bite himself at daycare or home, especially to the point of leaving a mark. And I had spent a decent amount of time there with surprise drop ins to see my son) not only did she admit they didn't know where it came from but then tried to blame it on my son I never even received an apology for them not watching my son properly and not knowing how he got that Mark...not to mention it was never written up either.

We currently have three children at The Village. Our oldest is in the Waunakee Public 4K program,…read moreour middle in the preschool room, and our youngest in the tot room. We truly couldn't ask for a better place for them to grow and learn. The staff is absolutely amazing--every teacher knows our kids so well and cares for them like family. You can tell how much love and intention goes into every classroom. The chef is wonderful, and the healthy food program is such a huge plus. Our kids eat better here than they do at home most days! The Spanish immersion program has been another highlight--it's incredible to see how naturally our children are picking up new language skills. Beyond the day-to-day care, what really makes The Village special is the sense of community. When our family went through a medical event, the daycare staff and families immediately surrounded us with support. They organized a meal train, dropped off food/snacks for the hospital, offered to help with pickups, and did whatever they could to lighten our load during a difficult time. We're so grateful to have found a place that feels like an extension of our home and for all three of our children to learn, play, and thrive.

Families who started out supportive or who love Montessori often leave upset about issues with the administration and their choices and responses. Parents concerns about the environment or behavior that isn't controlled or learning that isn't happening or how kids are pushed in other non-academic ways so they will be "hearty" are often negated and families are strung along. In general the school over-promises and under-delivers time and again. Most students will be better off in a public school that is run well or at a private Montessori school (or other private school).
