My son started at CKS in November of 2018. We were pushed out of a Montessori that we were in b/c…read morethey didn't allow therapists in to work with their students (he was aging out of E.I.). This was a few months into the school year, so I set out to find a school ASAP. I toured two others in the area, most of the schools I tried were already filled. Luckily I was able to get a hold of Ester who is the owner, and runs the school. I think upon hearing my situation, she took sympathy on my plight, and was able to get my son in. For that alone I will forever be indebted to her, but also for creating this incredible environment for every child that is lucky enough to attend school here. My son has thrived here, has made some great friends, and the parents are all great too. It is family run, and some of her kids work there, or have worked there. The staff is excellent too. They're all just so sweet and kind, the children and parents love them. They have chickens, two baby sheep, and a tractor to go for rides on. They're very big on outdoor play which I really LOVE - no matter what the conditions are (sans wind). They do sports in the morning to get the kids going, and they love it. The teachers make home cooked meals for breakfast and lunch every day (it is a nut free environment). Not having to think about what I am making my son for breakfast, snack, or lunch five days a week is a life saver. It also helps knowing its homemade and healthy. It is truly a remarkable place. They're also up to date on the times with everything they do there from the books, the toys, to activities and even their app for the school - Brightwheel. It gives you updates, pics, and videos of your child's day to day school life. You can message the school within the app and vice versa. This school is a magical place, and if you are ever able to send your child here, consider yourself hitting the preschool jackpot. My son literally asks me to go to school on some days when he is not there. It's that good!

I was initially considering sending my…read moreson to other 3's/4's programs in the area when we moved here, with only 3-4 hour days, summers off --- which would have required hiring a sitter/nanny. I am so glad I didn't assume that a daycare model pre-school wouldn't be as good! . I don't know how he could have learned any more over the past 18 months -- he is reading, speaks some Spanish, has learned great social skills and how to be a good friend, etc. And he eats the daily homemade food, trying all kinds of food he won't try at home. Coming from NYC, we never thought we'd end up at a family owned daycare, but we could not be happier we found CKS. The director/owner is wonderful, and her team a mix of her family (son and husband), as welll as fabulous, warm teachers who seem to really WANT to be teachers and are educated as such. My son is very ready for Kindergarden!! And for working parents, other than 2 weeks in the summer and a week at Christmas, this school is always open -- even during crazy snowstorms this year, they were open, allowing us to work when we needed to.

We were in Honey Tree from February to June, 3 days a week schedule. Everything was fine until two weeks before September I asked for curtain days a week (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday - 3 days in a raw) - and Kaia responded that she will see what they can do. No sign of trouble yet. Week later, on August 26th (a 5 days before September) I reached out again to confirm the days cuz we were also figuring out a schedule for "Birth to three" program (visits in school for speech therapy) and I found out that we don't have a spot in class because payment didn't go through. What!? Why I wasn't informed? Why nobody called and asked "Hey , are you guys still want to go to our place?" Or hey guys - try another card, or pay manually don't wait till Autopay (Which was set for Aug 27th!) Card was on file the WHOLE TIME! How could this happen? We are not new customers, they had both of our contacts to reach out and ask if we still need a spot?! Or if they found someone else who goes full week (5 days schedule) - the right thing will be is to inform us about them,at least 2 weeks before school starts, Or ask if we want to go full time too?! It was very unprofessional and irresponsible ! I called all possible schools around and of course they are all fully booked or don't have Two's program. Very disappointed! You should work on stuff training, management are very week if this simple situation was handled in the worst possible way!

They have a handful of amazing teachers but they are few and far between. I'm sure I will be met with a condescending response to this review from the owner, but I come with receipts. I'm a very relaxed parent and I'm not asking for my son to have some kind of special treatment. What I am asking for is for my son to be treated with basic respect. When you bring up any situation, you are gaslit to believe you are a problematic, dramatic, and an unhinged parent that isn't pleased despite their "efforts." They have an app called "Watch Me Grow" and it's on this app I witnessed a teacher kick my son's cot right by his head in an attempt to disconnect his cot from another cot. (Sept. 2022). I watched my son get hit in the face by another child(I get it, they are children), but what I don't get is why an incident report was never made, why no one told me what happened, and why I was the one that had to bring up what I saw. He came home with a bruise that night. The teacher assistant was too concerned with cutting up an art project and wasn't even paying attention to the children. When my child went to her, she wouldn't pick him up to even check to see if he was alright. When she did finally pick him up, she held him away from here body and then plopped him back down I guess he looked fine to her.(Oct. 2022) In Feb 2022, I watched every baby be handed a cupcake except my child for no apparent reason. It wasn't until a teacher that had grown fond of my son came in, saw he was the ONLY child without a cupcake, and she handed him one. I've called DCF in the past, and all HT did was move the teacher out of the room to a room with older kids where this teacher would go on to cause more problems with more children and families, but that's not my story to tell. The day before Thanksgiving 2023, my husband went to drop our son off. The same teacher assistant I had the issue with when he was injured was subbing in the room. She rolled her eyes when she saw my son. My husband picked up our child, and told them he didn't want him in the classroom with her because of her constant attitude. I'm not the only parent to talk about this TA's horrible attitude. I have heard it with my own ears, so I know I'm not crazy. Furthermore, my husband runs a business. I don't know any parent that would take their child back in an attempt to drop him off and go to work if there wasn't a problem. The owner called me within the hour and had already made up in her mind she didn't want my son back at daycare. She stated that "this was the 4th incident in 2 years, she felt like she couldn't make us happy, and the TA was crying." Every incident we have ever had was NOT made up out of thin air like the owner claims. She stated we are "looking for things to be wrong." I also don't know a parent that would keep their child at a daycare center to "look for something" to be wrong at the expense of their child. My son loved his actual teacher and TA, however this daycare hires family members and friends of family that already work there, so when a teacher is out sick they throw these people in their place. Fine by me, but at least make sure they like kids. I cannot tell you the amount of times I've walked in, and someone was on their phone. The owner went on to say she would be happy to help me find a new daycare, and refund me my money. When I asked her "are you kicking my son out of daycare?" she laughed and repeated she could refund me. Before we were even off the phone she took me off the cameras, and then 1 minute later I got a refund, followed by a text stated "they loved my son and she hoped I was happy at his new center." My child wasn't enrolled anywhere until March of 2024, so the day before Thanksgiving she left us with no daycare because of HER STAFF that SHE HIRED nasty attitude.Were also NOT the first family she's done this to, but again not my story to tell. I was also informed by a teacher that another teacher stated some very nasty things about my child. When I approached the manager about, I told her I wanted to discuss what was said, and I told her about the cupcake situation. When I brought the issue back up while she was kicking my child out of school months later she said she had never heard about the cupcake situation. Please document every issue like I did! Any time a situation occurs, the owner will tell you "the teacher bust into tears." Which indicates to me some of the staff have learned to cry to get out of the hot seat. The owner even tried to pin me against his teacher! We had situation where we noticed our son was in a corner in a high chair eating alone because he was smaller while the the bigger kids were on the other side of the room eating lunch. The teacher and I RESOLVED the issue and the manager threw it in my face as she was dismissing my child from school.

After going through all of the classrooms, my kids are now in their first year of preschool there, and we have been really impressed by the curriculum. Included in the program are several field trips and other special events. I have no doubt in my mind that they will be more than ready for Kindergarten when the time comes.
