Little Sunshine's Playhouse is an extraordinary place!! From the very beginning, it's been clear…read morethat the teachers truly love and care for each child--there's nothing more reassuring than walking in and seeing your baby truly happy, playing, learning, being held, comforted, and known so deeply. What makes this school exceptional is the magic the teachers create every day. They don't just care for the kids--they create an environment full of wonder, curiosity, and joy that helps them grow and explore the world around them. As our son has gotten older, we've watched him hit milestones with confidence, learn new things at an incredible pace, and become genuinely excited to go to school each day. The leadership and staff have created something really special here. It's a place where children are nurtured, celebrated, and inspired--and we feel so lucky to be part of it.

I feel so lucky to have found CCP through word of mouth, and both my son and daughter adore the staff, teachers, and friends there. Having previously never done any sort of child care program, I was super nervous when my daughter started at 15 months (former helicopter mama here). Their approach to education, support, and providing my little ones with a loving environment is what sets them apart from any other child care facility I've found. We've been attending since 2019 and returned in 2021, and truly could not be happier. Thank you Casey and team for being so wonderful!

My son wasn't speaking too much before starting school but after his first year he was speaking full and complete sentences and writing. The teachers there are amazing! They all either had their own kids go through FFP or have taught there for 10+ years. Everyone just seems to be one big family there. My son is now onto kindergarten and my daughter will start her first year there come August. I have nothing but nice things to say about FFP and the wonderful people there.

First Foundations served as our family's first experience with preschool, and for that we are so…read moreextremely thankful. Our shy little daughter just blossomed at this school, to the extent that our friends and extended family remarked on the change in her confidence and demeanor. I'm admittedly a pretty anxious mama bear and I am still, a year later, so shocked at how seamless the adjustment to going to preschool felt for both my daughter and for myself. There were no tears from my little one when I dropped her off, but on more than one occasion she was adamant that she didn't want to leave the school when I picked her up. I could write paragraph upon paragraph, but I'll try to keep it short and sweet because I know firsthand how much energy it takes to search for that perfect fit. Here are some of the aspects that stood out to me! - The whole entire staff here is so wonderful. The director, Mrs. Wilkins, truly pours her heart into her school. She knows and loves each child and greets them by name. She also personally ran my daughter's lunch box/jacket/show and tell item down to her classroom on the more than one occasion that I completely forgot those items in a sleep deprived haze. Our daughter's teachers, Mrs. Gamoneda and Mrs. Pallota, were so kind and loving. Our kiddo can be stubborn, and she started the school year insisting that she didn't want finger paint on her hands. Mrs. G and Mrs. P worked with her, encouraging but never pushing (they even asked my husband and myself if there was any sort of alternative glue or paint she might find more tolerable), and our daughter was beaming with pride when she presented us with a finger painted keepsake a few weeks later. I said I'd keep this short, so bullet points for the rest. - All of the teachers are very qualified. - The school is clean and the teachers had the children wash their hands several times every day even in a pre-coronavirus world. - There are all sorts of fun theme days, class parties and a Christmas program. - This was my daughter's takeaway from our initial tour - two playgrounds! Here is my takeaway - two safe, age appropriate playgrounds that are fenced in. - In addition to the classroom, the children attend Chapel, Spanish and music class (we had the opportunity to observe a bit of the music class on our tour, and the kids were having so much fun). - A perfect combination of play based learning and learning skills that will be needed in kindergarten (our 4 y/o is now able to write her name but she had a lot of fun at school too) - The teachers incorporate super cool activities (a volcano, a caterpillar that turns into a butterfly, a classroom full of tents, reading Biblical stories via blacklight) into their daily lesson plans. - The school is safety minded. This was huge for me. - If you have a baby on your hip, everyone will help you. :) There is a wonderful drop off program, actually, in which teachers are in charge of getting kids from your car. It's very safe and coordinated well. - The school has a bridge program and a kindergarten program. This is actually how I learned about First Foundations. It's seriously the best school, and the only thing I would ever change about it is that I wish our kids could attend for a couple more years.

We have been really happy with this school for the past two years, I'll probably even pay for my daughter to do kinder here. She understands Spanish and is well on her way to speaking it. The building is so clean and all of the craft supplies are well stocked and organized. My husband adds that everything is so organized, when he comes to pick up our daughter all the kids are playing nicely or engaging in reading with the teacher.

We're relocating our family to Northern Virginia, and leaving Austin Children's Academy is…read moregenuinely one of the hardest parts of this move. Our son Benjamin has been a student here, and the growth we've watched in him during his time at ACA has been incredible. The teachers and staff didn't just teach Benjamin important skills like potty training and using utensils on his own -- they did it with so much patience and care that he hit these milestones happily and confidently. As a parent, watching your child grow through these big "firsts" is special, and we always felt like ACA's team was as invested in those moments as we were. What really sets this school apart is the sense of family. From the teachers to the entire staff, everyone made us feel like we belonged to a community, not just a daycare. Benjamin was loved and cared for every single day, and that kind of warmth is hard to find. If you're considering ACA for your child, don't hesitate. We are beyond grateful for everything this school has done for Benjamin and our family, and we'll carry these memories with us wherever we go. Thank you, ACA -- you'll always have a piece of our hearts.

Rather than relying solely on reviews, I decided to do my own research, ask questions and form my own opinion. I am so glad I did! Although we are still new to The Nest, our experience has been incredibly positive. My son looks forward to school every morning, and seeing him feel welcomed, comfortable, and excited to learn means everything to me. I especially want to recognize Miss Beverly the Executive Director. We absolutely adore her! Her communication with parents is exceptional. she is approachable, responsive, and genuinely takes the time to listen and address questions or concerns. That kind of leadership and transparency makes a tremendous difference when you're trusting someone with your child. I understand that every family's experience is different, and I would never want to dismiss anyone else's concerns. But I also believe it's important to share positive experiences, especially when a school and its staff are making a meaningful difference in a child's life.
