When we were trying to decide which path to take, Little Acorns invited us to bring our child into class for a couple hours each day and watch the teachers interact with him. I was sold, the teachers are so incredibly caring, and customize care specifically for each child! Our child is in his third classroom and I love every teacher just as much as I loved the first. They have helped us with every major transition in our child's life -- solid foods, crawling, walking, talking, transitioning naps...you name it. I know a number of children the same age at other centers/home with nannies and our child is by far more advanced. Everywhere we go, people comment on how well behaved and advanced he is, and I credit that to the amazing teachers at Little Acorns! I couldn't imagine our son being happier anywhere else, this was definitely the right decision and I would recommend Little Acorns to any other family, without hesitation. One other thing to note -- Little Acorns follows the Montgomery County curriculum, so your child will be well prepared for kindergarten.

I give my highest and most heartfelt recommendation to the Family Academy of Bethesda. My son has…read morebeen here since he was just three months old and stayed until almost three years old, when unfortunately we had to move away due to work relocation. If it weren't for that, we would have loved for him to stay here as long as possible. It's hard to put into words how incredible this place has been for our family. From the days when he could barely lift his head, to learning to walk, talk, sing, and share stories about his day, we've watched him grow into a happy, curious, and confident little boy--all thanks to the loving care and nurturing environment of Family Academy. He not only learned language and knowledge, but also good manners and a true love of learning.The teachers are absolutely amazing--kind, patient, and so easy to communicate with. My son is a slow and picky eater, yet they always gave him extra time and gentle encouragement. They care for each child as if they were their own. The administration team is just as wonderful; they know every child by name and engage with them warmly every single day.What makes Family Academy so special is not only the quality of education but the genuine love and attention they give to every child. The environment encourages exploration, creativity, and curiosity about everything in the world. I could see every day how happy my son was here.I am deeply grateful for everything the Family Academy has given to our son and to our family. This school is truly a treasure in the community, and I would recommend it wholeheartedly to any parent.

So much love for the Family Academy. Our son attended here for years, starting from the time he was…read more6 months old. Each classroom was led by caring, creative teachers. Under the center's care, my son truly blossomed. Well before we expected, he was singing songs to us, identifying letters, counting, and more. And most indicative of this center's awesomeness--my son was always so happy to go to school. It also meant a lot to me that the staff and teachers made genuine, impactful efforts to include our family's culture alongside mainstream culture, for example welcoming us to send in books about our holidays, directly engage the class in activities, and share ideas for the teachers to use. Would recommend Family Academy to anyone!!

My daughter spent nearly 5 years at A to Z and my son 3. They really thrived and loved the staff and curriculum. It is a small daycare, I believe max 3 kids with a few infants upstairs and downstairs toddlers through pre-K. Food is provided and it is consistent with Montgomery county guidelines. The kids have reading time, circle time, and arts and craft and learning time. The facilities are very clean and there are lots of activities and toys for the children. They also have regular nap time / quiet time for the children and snacks. In particular, my daughters math skills were very high for Kindergarten. The locations are very centrally located on Falls Road and Counselman Drive, which is very easy for a lot of parents continuing on to 495. I have only nice things to say of the staff and Leilas team and anyone who joins becomes like family.

When you are looking for a center, if the administrative staff is beyond communicative, if teachers love your child as they love their own, and if the energy that seeps forth boasts of creativity and engagement at all times, you know you've found the perfect place, and that place is Rock Spring Children's Center. It's hard enough knowing that you have to leave your child over the course of a day, but to know that you have the best care possible for your child during the day helps alleviate so much of that stress. The Center does not just say they love children, what they want to do to improve or how the work aligns with the mission, but they show EACH of these things, with intention, every single day. And while I'm talking about the overall feel and experience of the center, there are so many additions that really take it to the next level. The offerings of ballet, karate, an amazing plyometrics program, and music, all of it offered from phenomenal external entities as a formal class that help keep your weekends, a little more open. And for more ease, if you struggle to pack lunch every day, a catered lunch option is available. There is differentiated instruction that allows for all students to feel safe and seen. And did I mention the engagement and love of teachers, and administration? The list goes on. TLDR: There will never be a center as phenomenal as Rock Spring Children's Center!
