However, the village staff did an excellent job making sure mama bear was at ease with the new transition. After the first week at the village, I noticed my child was talking a lot more. A huge difference from the previous child care my child was attending that did not stimulate him at all. My child was talking more and interacting with others to the point I am upset I didn't find this place sooner. LEARNING: After the first month, my child learned all of his colors and was able to count to 20. I owe it all to the Village for making learning and playing fun. The Village has a classroom and huge play areas for children to explore. The Village prepares children for school by reading, counting, coloring, singing, and providing structure. PLAY/FUN- my child was always by the door and ready to leave his previous daycare provider. At the Village, has so much fun it's sometimes hard to get him to leave. The staff always has a fun day planned- from water day to Dr. Seuss Day. CLEANLINESS- this place is immaculate and very well organized. Common areas are always cleaned and sanitized. I wish my home was as clean as this place. I would recommend the village to any parent. It was the best decision I made for my child sending him there. Any of my future children I would send to the Village. I was finally able to exhale and know my child was in good hands. Ms. Dee and the teachers truly love what they do. My child is starting kindergarten and I know the Village set him up for success

Baby MacBean was AMAZING! You won't find a better daycare. They implemented a curriculum--even at…read morethe infant level--that included sensory activities, art, reading, and science. My son was actively engaged every day with painting, dancing, growing plants, cooking lessons, and story time. By 18 months, my son knew four colors, spoke in 3-4 word meaningful sentences, asked questions, had a vocabulary of well over 100 words, could name a dozen animals and their sounds, played pretend, and could identify a word on each page of his favorite books. He cleaned up his toys when asked, apologized when he hurt someone, said please and thank you, and even cleared his own dishes and wiped his spot at the table after dinner. That kind of independence and empathy at such a young age was extraordinary--and entirely due to the care and structure Miss Cassie provided. By age 4, my son was reading, writing his name, cutting complex shapes, counting to 100, and could name all the planets in the solar system along with their characteristics, among many other advanced skills. If you want your child to gain lifelong social-emotional skills and enter kindergarten well above grade level, this is the place. The waitlist can be long, but Miss Claudia does her best to accommodate working parents.

Stay away! At first,…read morewe had very high hopes after meeting Ms Claudia and doing the complete tour of all locations. There were few red flags at the beginning, but being new parents, we kind of brushed them off. Big mistake: 1) Ms Claudia tried to change the diaper of our 1yr old daughter. She tired to have her lay down on a changing pad, which our little one would have none of it. Our girl was hysterically crying and trying to break free from this woman who has "extensive experience". We couldn't believe what we were seeing: Ms Claudia totally ignored our girls hysterical crying, and continued her "left-right" story as if this is normal. It is not normal. My wife made sure to let her know that our little one has never cried like this, not even during her vaccine shots! 2) During one of our visits, we heard barking from one of the rooms, and were told that one of the dogs recently gave birth that there were 6 puppies. I love dogs, but 6 puppies + 2 adult dogs in a fairly tight indoor space is not ideal when toddlers are trying to nap. We made sure to read the Parent Handbook and fill out the forms and pre-pay for the first month tuition, even though we were just starting the 4-week Trial Period. Our child only attended 2 days (in the Trial Period). I informed Ms Claudia that we will not continue further, and only ask that we are refunded for the pre-paid monthly tuition ($1,995). In her Parent Handbook (pg 14) it clearly states the following: "At any time during the four (4) week trial period, if the provider or family feels that this is not a suitable arrangement for the child, the contract can be terminated by either party without penalty, notice, or specific reason. The security deposit will be refunded in full and the family will only be responsible to pay for the days attended." Totally reasonable. We had no problem paying for the 2 (gentle days) she attended along with the non-refundable registration fee. But there is a catch! When I brought up the tuition refund, I was informed that the "tuition" is non-refundable. A tuition paid for a month in advance, where my child never attended a single day. You've gotta be kidding me! I will seek legal advice since this is clearly breach of the contract we signed with conflicting details.

I'm impressed by how well Lynda can do this sorting and constructing. My impression is that she can do this well because she cares about what she's doing. She has a lot of motivation when it concerns her pupils. Children's welfare has always been important to her, whether it was her own children, or the ones she's taught and tutored. I'm her friend, but I've also done teaching of various kinds, and I think I can recognize good teaching methods. Lynda is a good teacher, in my opinion.

I'm writing this review as a former parent whose children attended St. Vincent Ferrer Preschool…read more Unfortunately, our experience left me extremely disappointed, particularly when it came to the school's ability to understand and support children on the autism spectrum. I truly wanted this school to be a place where my children could learn, grow, and feel accepted. However, I often felt that there was a lack of understanding, knowledge, and appropriate support when it came to my child's individual needs. Instead of feeling like we had a team working alongside us, I felt like I was constantly having to advocate for basic understanding and accommodations. Eventually, I felt that I had no choice but to discontinue my children's education at the school because I did not feel confident that their needs were being adequately understood or supported. What is especially frustrating is seeing resources and effort being put into things like a coffee cart and taking yoga classes while families of children with additional needs are struggling to receive the education, training, and support they deserve. There is absolutely nothing wrong with creating something nice for staff and families, but I believe the school should also prioritize investing in staff training, autism awareness, individualized support, and resources for children with special needs. Children on the spectrum should not be viewed simply as difficult or disruptive when they need additional support. They deserve educators who are knowledgeable, patient, compassionate, and willing to understand their differences. I sincerely hope St. Vincent Ferrer takes feedback from families like mine seriously and makes meaningful changes. Our children deserve to be supported, understood, and given the same opportunity to succeed as every other child.

Brenda is a talented, patient, creative, fun, loving, bilingual, educated individual, she is passionate about teaching and dedicated to every child that is in her care; she loves what she does and it reflects in her approach of teaching. As a preschool teacher Brenda demonstrated a great love and patience for children. Her Qualifications to teach them effectively included knowledge of best practices and preschool educational methods as well as the ability to engage with children and earn their trust and attention. If you are looking for a place for your child to be safe, loved, learn and have fun this is a place to be. As a parent you want a place where you can drop off your children and feel assured they are in safe hands; with Brenda this is what you get.

Her confidence, independence, and social skills are outstanding and we thank VPNS for that.

Along with there is no dividers in the bathroom toilets are right next to each other watching each other use the bathroom. I understand children don't see anything wrong. But they should be treated with respect and given space as well! That isn't treating them anything like that, having them allnout there like that isn't right. Also when my child was there he wasn't encouraged to join the group. He was left playing alone in a corner, this isn't why I brought him here and paid the high cost $$ just for him to do something he does at home. I brought him here to learn to be around other children is age. Learn to share and be part of a team. To help build confidence and build real friendship. This was not the school for us very disappointed!
