Little Lamb Christian Preschool holds such a special place in our hearts. My daughter currently…read moreattends, and years ago, my son was also a Little Lamb. The love, care, and sense of safety they provide hasn't changed a bit--it's only grown stronger. The staff is incredible--genuinely kind, honest, and so patient with every child. They treat the kids like family, and as a parent, there's nothing more comforting than dropping your child off each day knowing they are in good hands. The environment is clean, nurturing, and filled with positive energy and encouragement. What I love most is how they truly focus on each child's individual needs while creating a strong sense of community. My daughter comes home happy, singing songs, and telling me about all the fun things she learns. It's such a blessing to watch her grow emotionally, socially, and spiritually in a place where she's so clearly loved. Thank you, Little Lamb, for being such a beautiful part of our family's journey. We're so grateful for you

There are not enough recent reviews on here, so I wanted to shed some light on this wonderful…read moreschool--we just graduated from the Pre-K program, and I'm genuinely going to miss it! From the start, I knew exactly what I was looking for in a preschool. I had previously worked in preschools and in admissions at a Pre-K through 8th grade private school in Saratoga, I had strong opinions about what kind of environment I wanted for my own children. My top priorities were: strong leadership, small class ratios, and teacher retention. When I toured Stepping Stones, I knew immediately that this was the right place. Ms. Jenny, the Assistant Director, is fantastic--bubbly, professional, and genuinely invested. Whether she's greeting families at the door, supporting teachers in the classroom, decorating, or prepping for the next event, she's fully present and hands-on. Her leadership sets the tone for the whole school, creating a warm, welcoming, and well-run environment. One of my favorite things about the program is the 12:1 student-to-teacher ratio in both the 3-year-old and 4-year-old classes. It's not a model where one teacher manages a large group with just an aide--it's truly one teacher to twelve students. The classrooms are designed for this more intimate setting, which allows teachers to get to know their students deeply. (Bonus: you only have to buy 12 party favors instead of 24! ) Teacher retention is another strong point. You can tell the staff love working here. Former teachers and substitutes often return, and there's a strong sense of teamwork and collaboration. I frequently saw teachers sharing ideas, helping one another, and going above and beyond to support their students and colleagues. Communication with the school is also seamless, thanks to the Learning Management System they use. Teachers and staff regularly post photos, share weekly updates, and send messages through it, which keeps parents in the loop in such a meaningful way. I also want to give special thanks to two teachers who made a big impact on our family: Ms. Karina has a warm and calming presence that made a world of difference for my son, especially during a time of big changes at home. He was still adjusting to having a new sibling, and mornings could be tough and emotional. Ms. Karina met him each day with such patience and gentle reassurance--her kind words, soft tone, and steady presence helped him feel safe and understood. She provided the comfort and consistency he needed, making his transition into the classroom so much smoother. We're incredibly grateful for the care and support she offered during that tender time. Ms. Nayeli helped provide him with the independence he needed to gain confidence in himself. Her encouragement, structure, and thoughtful approach created an environment for him to explore, take initiative, and thrive. If you're considering Stepping Stones, I can wholeheartedly recommend it. The leadership, classroom structure, and loving teachers make it a truly special place.

On my off days, I pick up my niece and nephew here in the afternoon. They have a really good setup…read morehere. The place is clean and organized. The building isn't all that old so I know the facilities are nice for the kids. All the children seem to be having a great time and the playground space seems ample and comfy. There is a buzzer and keypad to ensure security and proper access. The first time I went to pick up my babies, they asked me, "who are you?" They know I'm not the mom and dad. All good signs to begin with. With the American school system being so obsolete and becoming less innovative than other countries, you MUST offer extra education on the side to help your kids compete in the future. Honestly, my sister is an elementary school teacher and she still sends her kids to a place like this. Don't get me wrong, these places aren't cheap. I'm talking about $750 to $1000 a month, per kid. Now I know I'm in the wrong business. Still, when you have peace of mind with PM day care and knowing that your kids are learning more than the average American kid, you'll want to spend less on yourself, and save more for their future. Being an adult means making sacrifices, right? Always a get a great feeling when I leave this venue. And it's not because this place reminds me of that old Monkees song, "I'm Not Your Steppin' Stone."

I'm surprised that I don't already have a review for KACC. I just remembered after researching…read morelocal preschool in the area we moved to. Looking for an enriching, engaging, and safe environment to entrust your little ones too is so stressful. When I first was introduced to KACC I trusted a girlfriend who had her daughter and other family in the program. I completely trusted her judgement because she is super TYPE A and wouldn't just let any random influence on her kid. Honestly, do all you research look at all the schools you want... but trust your gut. I personally knew from the first time I met Ms. April (the director) that KACC was going to be the right place for my girls. When I went in for a tour we did all the basic tour stuff, look at the class, playground, yada yada. When we went back to her office and started talking I opened up to her about some challenges we were experiencing as a family and my concern for the affect it was having on my girls. Needless to say I was in tears... but I didn't feel any judgement. I felt like Ms. April was just one mom providing support to another going through a hard time. It was never weird after, i mean yes i was a bit embarrassed, but April actually took the time to check in with a me a few weeks later. HONESTLY... there are so many amazing things to say about this school. I started off with my eldest daughter first. I enrolled her when she was about 3 and I could see her growth within weeks. She's a shy girl, but the love and nurturing that ALL staff give to the students shows in so many ways. My shy girl grew confident and loved going to school. A year later I enrolled my youngest, by that time she was beyond ready to go to school after watching me drop off her sister every day for the past year. She's my wild child and barely glanced back at me when I dropped her off the first day. But I really think it is a testament to the welcoming environment KACC provides. Before my youngest daughter even started school the teachers knew her name and looked forward to having her start. The strides that she made once she started were amazing. I could hear and see in our daily interactions how much she was learning. I always felt welcome and looked forward to dropping my girls off. OHHH let's not forget the safety precautions they have. You have to be buzzed in to enter the building and EVERY person that enters the preschool immediately comes in contact with a staff member. So there aren't just people walking in going wherever. (I say this because this is my biggest issue with our current preschool). Longest Review EVER.. but well worth it. Again... do you research but really TRUST your intuition. You know your children better than anyone. If I could lift KACC along with the staff and plop them right down in Corona I would. One of the most important aspects in preschool is getting students acclimated to attending school as well as socialization. KACC does such an amazing job of blending those key elements with the academics piece. I will forever be grateful for the love KACC showed by girls. They still talk about their teachers (Ms. Jann, Ms. Stephanie, Ms. Joliza, and Ms. Camille) and ask if they can go for a visit. I could go on and on.. but my work day is now over.

I especially love the mixed aged classroom where older kids are taught to be patient and caring with the younger kids. I'm so glad I discovered greenhouse for my kids. Thank you teachers for all you do!! My kids Love going to school. In particular it's their teachers that are exceptionally awesome and caring. I hope the administrators do what they can to keep and retain them. The teachers are the lifeblood of this school and why parents recommend others to come.

When we did the initial walk through at MGH, we informed Michelle of my son's frustration and…read morebehavior issues and asked her how they would address this at school, she confidently told me she would take him outside to diffuse him. We also had numerous formal and informal meetings with Christine and Karinna, who always said they wanted to work with us. We were told we had to get outside help from a doctor, and when we told them it would take a while to see results (per the psychologist), they reiterated they were willing to help. After being called to be picked up after an hour of class on his 4th full day of school, I spoke with Christine and she told me what happened. I also called the director, Heather, to discuss our options. Christine didn't mention anything about Simon not being allowed to attend school anymore without extra help provided by his family, nor did Heather. On Tuesday morning, I sent Heather an email with tips of how to diffuse my son, thinking the teachers could use it as a guideline in helping to steer him in the right direction. Twenty minutes prior to school starting, she called to tell me that it wasn't possible for my son to get any more one on one from the teachers and since our nanny couldn't be at the school until 10am, the staff felt they weren't safe with my son in class without the help. Why Heather didn't call me Monday or even earlier Tuesday morning to let me know he was not able to attend that day still baffles me. Heather said she was waiting to talk to me at the site, but that would have only resulted in her turning us away as I had my daughter with me that morning and wouldn't have been able to stay to help.  I got my so ready that morning, we packed his lunch together, and I gave him the pep talk about Karinna not being in class, but got him excited for music class that day. If I wouldn't have sent that email, Heather wouldn't have called at all and we would have arrived at the school only for her to have told us the news in front of my son. How do you think he would have felt about that? I'm surprised that the director of a place that regards itself as fostering confidence in young children would reject a child to their face. The website states, "studies prove that the relationship between a caretaker and a child is more secure when it's longer. It supports the social and emotional development of a child. Whereas, frequent change in approach or caretakers can cause suffering and early depression in children." Heather and her staff gave my son one full day the first week and three full days the second week, calling us to pick him up on what would have been his fifth day at MGH.  If the email I had sent Tuesday morning were suggestions from an actual psychologist, would they have called to tell me you couldn't give him one on one attention to implement the strategies from a doctor? The meeting on Friday with the teachers suggested otherwise, as we were told they were ready to work with whatever care we found once an assessment was made. Christine informed me that she would have to call to have my son picked up from school if the kids felt unsafe. According to her, this happened for the first time on Monday even though he was called to be picked up three prior days of school. No one informed me he wouldn't be able to return without my nanny or a parent in the classroom after this one incident of him kicking in the direction of a child. I was under the impression that we would have to come get him if it happened again, but not that he couldn't return. The first I heard of this was twenty minutes before the start of class on Tuesday. I was caught of guard and it was very unprofessional. I am so glad this did not end up happening in front of my four year old son, as the director originally intended. I understand my so was not easy and required a lot of one on one. He has never been in anything full time all day. He has never been in a Montessori setting. I believe he was not given a fair chance to succeed. He was not even given an entire week. The MHG program is more geared toward families with Montessori backgrounds, with kids that are ready to do their work without much assistance. This should have been conveyed to us before we signed on, as we were open about his past behavior and experience. I hope in the future you are up front with parents regarding any children that may have special needs or behavioral problems.

After a failed attempt at another preschool, I was struggling to find a place that not only my oldest daughter felt comfortable going to but I felt comfortable dropping her off to everyday. When my youngest turned two, there was no doubt in my mind that she would attend school with her sister. Both of my daughters have thrived not only socially, but also academically. I appreciate that Vanessa keeps me in the loop on anything that is happening at the school but also happening with my girls. Although my oldest daughters time is coming to an end and she will be starting Kindergarten in the fall, I am confident that she has all of the tools needed for her to continue to be successful. I know my youngest will thrive the same way in learning that her sister has and now with another baby coming soon, it's no question where he or she will go once they are of age.

I know that perfection doesn't exist, but if I had to think on the closest-to-perfection school, I would think on St. Hedwig School. I have read some of the previous reviews here, and I would like to say that, of course there will be kids who won't behave, or teachers that you won't like (for whatever reason)... and that's life! But for every kid that doesn't behave, in SHS you will find hundreds of amazing and kind kids. For very teacher who you don't agree with, there will be dozens of over-qualified, extra-nurturing, and inspiring teachers. We can only speak great things about St. Hedwig School, its staff, faculty, administrators, and its community. To name a few: we love that the kids have the possibility to enjoy reading through the Advanced Reader program, they can learn how to code, they can join the school band, and many, many other activities on a daily basis. The kids are academically challenged in a faith filled environment that prepares them for life. The only thing I would suggest to the school is to start the teaching of a second language sooner, in first grade. Currently, the kids start in sixth grade. I think the kids would benefit from starting the study of a second language earlier. If you are looking for a new school for your kid/s, stop by St. Hedwig School, ask for a tour, visit the classrooms, meet the teachers, the kids, and...Enjoy!
