The Star Room staff was by…read morefar our least favorite combination of teachers, and the lead teacher, Ms. Hillery is more worried about the classroom presentation than the emotional well-being of the students. Ms. Hillery is rude to students and parents alike - even staff members in other classrooms are aware and alluded to this fact before we had the "joy" of experiencing it ourselves. My recommendation would be to pull your child before having them attend here for preK, as your overall experience would likely be okay (though teacher turnover in all rooms has not been great over the last year and a half).

NBCC offers part-time, full-time, summer and after school care for birth through school age. The…read morestaff is highly professional and very good at communicating with parents. They have taught me so much about how to deal positively with conflict, emotional and behavior issues in my own kids. The kids get lots of outside time, do field trips, and have classrooms where they are encouraged to develop lots of different skills in an age-appropriate way. Parents are encouraged to be involved in one of many events throughout the year including a carnival, halloween party, and things co-sponsored with the church in which the center is housed. We even attended a parenting skills class taught by some of the senior instructors at the center and learned a lot. Kids can sign up for optional activities like yoga, music or dance classes. They also offer week-long summer camps. Unfortunately Clintonville has far too few childcare facilities, so there is a waitlist for the full-time program. Sign up before you need it, or enroll in the part-time program while you wait. Openings in the summer and after school programs go first to current students/siblings/former students, so going there for preschool is a good way to get your foot in the door if you are looking for options once they are in elementary school.

My child is attending Overbrook two mornings a week. She LOVES it. Plus, it gives mom a break to…read moreget grocery shopping done, etc. It is also very reasonably priced. They have some sort of art project every day and plenty of play time. They also have a wonderful indoor playroom for days when it is rainy or too cold to play outside. The other thing I enjoy about their preschool program is that it is not faith based. It is based on the state education standards, and is truly to prepare kids for kindergarten. My suggestion would be to certainly give this place a try. Schedule a tour with your child and see how they like it there. My daughter fell in love the first time we were there and now is so happy to be going to school. She would love going every day, but maybe next year.

It has been an exciting, enriching and rewarding experience for all three. Even though we live in a community with a nationally ranked public school system, we chose Wellington because of the small class size and personal attention that a school of Wellington's size can deliver. We have not been disappointed. Our children thrive academically. They also have the opportunity to be in the band, play three different sports (lax, basketball and soccer) throughout the year without worries of being cut from the team (Wellington has a "no cuts" policy) and they can be in theater productions. Wellington encourages diversity in student interests and demonstrates its commitment to diversity in its teachers and in the students it accepts. Wellington parents are friendly, involved and welcome at Wellington. While some schools emphasize "rigor," Wellington seeks "engagement." Wellington students are engaged, active learners who generally are inspired to learn more, do more. It's an amazing place.

He loves to go outdoors in the natural play area. Recently, he showed off his ability to add "really big numbers" and how he's now sounding out words. CMC lives up to everything Montessori should be--hands on, self-guided, and collaborative. The classroom is beautifully laid out so the kids can move around, preparing snack or doing a big "work" on a rug. I would highly recommend CMC for anyone interested in full day child care and who believes in the beauty of a Montessori education.
