Overall, the structure of the camp is great. However, they frequently make last minute changes, do…read morenot communicate them, and then get frustrated when you are not following these changes. I worked here for 4 summers out of convenience, and it was one of the most hostile environments I have never been in. If you went to Camp Sewataro growing up, great, they will welcome you with open arms and you will fit in. If you did not, you will be isolated, shut out by fellow employees, and not be able to participate in events that the camp runs but chooses strictly campers-turned-employees for. If you are a college graduate, teacher, childcare professional, etc, you will still be getting supervised by an unqualified college kid, just because they grew up at camp. Pay is also terrible. I was making $11 an hour while having a Master's degree in education. There are hundreds of other camps in the area, don't work here.

Since she was born she has always been involved with the Portuguese language, the school helped her with the English language and now she is able to communicate in both languages. They also helped with the transition since she only stayed at home. I thank you the entire school team and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a professional place that really cares about their child.

After several months of quarantine, I really wanted my 5 year old to have a fun summer camp…read moreexperience and with the Covid case numbers going down in our area, I decided to sign him up for a few weeks of the summer fun program at Meadowbrook Child Garden. It had come highly recommended by some parents of precious students, but I also wanted to be sure it would be a safe place for him to be now with Covid-19 procedures in place. Dr Fernandez is very open and clear about their protocols and what is expected from the children as far as contact between kids, mask wearing, and hygiene, which was very reassuring and made me feel comfortable sending my son. They also have a large outdoor space where they spend a significant amount of time in the summer months. My son absolutely loved his time there and always had something fun to tell me about when I picked him up. He enjoyed the weekly themes and the crafts and activities that go along with each week's theme. My son had clearly made a genuine connection with many of the staff and other kids there in just three short weeks, which I believe reflects greatly on the caring nature of the staff and nurturing atmosphere that they create.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Goddard! We started when our daughter was about a…read moreyear old, and the teachers were amazingly supportive with the transition. Now our daughter is in a two-year old class and the teachers are helping her learn the alphabet and numbers and colors and are even doing a ton to help with toilet training, which is amazing. Every day, our little girl comes home learning something new--talking better, counting to ten...it's amazing. And she's happy! One thing I love about the school is that the owners are really great about communicating with us as parents, and the teachers are too. We actually get a daily e-mail (also communicated through an app on our phone) with pictures of our daughter and details ranging from what she ate to when she pooped to all of the activities that they did and how they enhanced her learning in different areas like social skills or gross motor movement or math or language. There's also usually a picture of her and there's always a "memorable moment" from her day. The classes at Goddard are small compared to other childcares, which has been great in terms of giving our daughter individualized attention as well. In short--I cannot recommend Goddard highly enough. As a parent, I feel safe and secure and confident sending my daughter here!

There was also a music class that morning and I asked if my son and I could check it out- we did and we loved it- wished we lived closer to sign him up for him but love they have special events throughout the year. I am a first time parent and jenny(the music teacher) was so helpful in showing me how to use music to bond with my son. After we went and played in their infant play area. We loved the baby bjorn and my son LOVES reading books and they had plenty- we had a fun filled day! Thanks Jam Time :)

We made the switch from another daycare provider to Next Gen when my daughter was 4. We were both…read moreunsure of how it would go (change is tough!), but looking back I wish we had moved earlier. Next Gen staff clearly care about the families, the community, and each other. The center is clean, the staff fun, and the Directors responsible and experienced. They hold everyone to high standards of care. Sadly, this is the complete opposite of our previous center. Though we have only interacted with some teachers (starting at 4 means we skipped a few classes!), all have been wonderful. My daughter is getting ready for Kindergarten, made fantastic friends, and regularly makes cards for her teachers (just because she adores them). I no longer stress about the care she is receiving, if she will be behind in school, or if the teachers are treated well (phew!). I will note the cost is higher and the hours more limited (close earlier) than our other center. Thankfully, we were able to manage both; totally worth it!

Extremely impressed! After a tour, I was extremely comfortable with how clean and attentive the…read morestaff were. After multiple weeks here, I could not be happier. The communication, the staff, the love is beyond my expectations. Director Kim has been amazing in answering questions and Ms.Ally is my sons favorite teacher and has gone above and beyond! Can't recommend Next Generation enough (and I've done a lot of tours in daycares)! Don't hesitate to send your little one here. They are in great hands!

(We have already booked his second Birthday party because this one was EXCEPTIONAL!! To be 100% transparent, my sister Brooke is the General Manager which means I had the highest of expectations. From the very start of the planning process, the staff was always readily and willingly available to answer any and all of my questions (trust me, there were plenty!) I never felt rushed. When we walked in we were greeted by several friendly faces and open arms (ready to take boxes, decorations, cake etc.) Annabelle was truly amazing! She continuously checked in with both my Husband and I to see if there was anything we or our guests needed. She even helped us set up the decorations, she truly went ABOVE and BEYOND!!! The owner Jeremy happened to stop by the day of our event and didn't leave before making sure he checked in. If you are contemplating having any type of celebration at MPower Athletics, book it! You will certainly not be disappointed!! Thank you MPower Athletics for making our sons first birthday celebration truly more amazing than we could have hoped for!

I was relieved to know that, in addition to the cash box out on the table, they do take cards and even tap to pay. The owner, Kathy, is very focused on running the place and busy like most small business owners, and I don't think she has automated processes, or anyone work in the office to support her operations.
