Our daughter is currently in her second year at Child's Play. We have loved the that the school is…read moreplay-based and the co-op model has allowed us to witness her experience in the classroom firsthand. Child's Play is such a special community because of the parental involvement. It's so comforting for me to know that my daughter has both incredible teachers and fellow parents in the classroom to support her when I am not there. I cannot stress enough how truly dedicated and experienced our teachers are at Child's Play. My child requires some additional support. Between offering additional resources for her in the classroom to attending IEP meetings on their own time, the teachers at Child's Play have played a vital role in our daughter's growth and development. A maximum of 5:1 child:adult ratio has allowed her teachers to take the extra time with her when she's needed it. We are very grateful for this very understanding, knowledgeable and autism-friendly community.

We started our child at St. Michael's for 5th grade. Wish we would have made the move sooner. After…read moretouring the school by myself, I left knowing this was going to be a great fit for our child. Their two day visit was their favorite of all of the schools they checked out because 'They actually teach you things and the kids want to learn.' The campus is beautiful, but beyond that, a few things stood out. 1. The head of middle school was great. She was engaging and immediately handed me two business cards. She asked me to please pass one on to my child and let them know that they could contact her with any questions they may have. My child felt like the head of middle school genuinely cared about them and proceeded to send an email asking a few questions/concerns they had. This was huge for my child. 2. All of the students played together. We watched a huge divide occur in 2nd grade at our previous school. Boys played football and soccer, and girls stood around. At St. Michael's the main playground equipment is built to accommodate all ages. Kids all played together and had fun. There was no division between boys and girls. I really liked how the middle schoolers came together so much. 3. The depth of learning going on, the number of options for a smaller school, and the responsibility placed, taught and expected from the middle school students was something that I knew my child would appreciate and could learn from. My child loves learning and wants to be challenged. I knew they would be challenged on many different levels. Things that we have loved since attending: * I love the Harry Potter'esque' houses that each student gets placed in at the beginning of their school year. This is a good way to bring together the 3 year olds up to 8th graders to cheer on their houses at different events. * I love the fact that field trips still happen through 8th grade. * I love the after school sports programs and how students are introduced to different sports even if they aren't overly sporty. * I love the fact that my child can stay after school for extra homework help and I can pick them up at the end of my work day. * I love how the school is a STEAM based school with amazing opportunities to explore including using the maker space to create solutions to problems and as a creative outlet to design things. * I love how there is lots of project based learning allowing students to have a deeper understanding of what they are learning about. The choices of how they will present and share their learning have been equally impressive and have forced my child to try new skills like sewing, stop motion and green screen technology. * I love the diversity of students that comes from the numerous military families attending from all over the globe. My child has learned about different cultures and languages because of this. * I love how the Choose Love program isn't just a bunch of sayings slapped on a wall as it sometimes is in other schools. The curriculum is used along with mindfulness, meditation, and self reflection and the students really practice what they learn. * I love how mistakes are encouraged as part of the process of learning and improving. * I love how the school has great community activities such as back to school picnics, ice skating days, parent get togethers, and opportunities to help support the community at large through volunteer projects. The parent's association is active and inclusive. * I love that foreign language is 4 hours a week starting in 5th grade with exposure in elementary school. * I love the science lab, PE and Heath classes and the focus on arts. So many schools are cutting arts and music programs. At St. Michael's you are exposed to chorus, band, studio arts, stage craft, cos-play and actor's studio. * I love how the teachers are engaging and so wonderful in their enthusiasm. They have a great pulse on their students and are really working hard to make students become better students and better contributors to society. * I love the administrative team and how they communicate with families and really get to know the students. * I love how encouraging the student body as a whole is. They genuinely care about other students. This was the best jump we ever made and so grateful to have found such a wonderful place to land, grow and learn.

The top flight staff, location and community are evident the moment you land on campus. As for a high level academic oriented-challenging environment, SMCDS is all that.

My son learned Spanish, sign language, math, science and many more things. I honestly wish this school continued into K-5. Our son would be staying. The special bonds the kids made with each classroom as they went through the years is so special. Extra activities included water play days, prom for the class , petting zoo.

I absolutely love it there and 100 percent would encourage any parents in the Cranston/ Providence surrounding areas to send their children to this school.

They care about the well-being and safety of all the children in the classrooms and take very good care of them. The classrooms are setup/ directed in a way children can excel and learn different subjects while having fun, gaining good foundation, routine and responsibilities. Both my children have learned and grown so much since attending this school, which in return has allowed me to learn and grow so much as a parent. They answer any questions I may have and will go out of their way to follow up with me and make sure we are all set. I am truly grateful for all the help and support they have given my family.

This morning, as I was dropping off my two grandchildren for preschool the parking lot was flooded and in order to avoid the children getting their feet wet, the teachers had the parents and grandparents pull up to the sidewalk and they physically stepped into water and picked the kids up out of the vehicles and carried them in. This saved the kids from having wet feet, socks and shoes for the day and I thought it was incredible that they actually took the time to do such a kind gesture for the kids. The staff there are amazing and they truly care about the children. Kudos again to the staff at Dr daycare and thank you very much. Regard, Tracey Mefford

Some times they wouldn't even witness the bullying my child and things that would be done.. my child would come home and tell me and then they try to find out what went on after the fact... if the teachers are hearing or seeing, what the hell are they doing?! Lori is quite a shitty person, she's the director. She's hardly even there to knows what in the world is going on with the place. So I called LICENSING ON THEM AND LICENSING TOLD ME TO CALL CHILD NEGLECT!!! As other people said there is a HUGE disconnect between the staff there. It's honestly sad. PLEASE DONT BRING YOUR KIDS HERE. I honestly feel bad allowing my daughter to stay in this kind of environment. Kayla is honestly the only genuine person there and it just shows through how she is with the kids . Everyone else seems like they have no children experience. There's an isabel that works there as well and she's terrible. A little boy Malachi used to bully my daughter and other little kids. Why did this ISABEL ISOLATE MY CHILD... when clearly that child is the problem. And yes I seen it; it was during breakfast time when I first dropped her off and this boy kept bothering her and my daughter was moved to a table all alone... luckily another staff seen it and realized my daughter was alone and sat another student next to her.

If your child has any type of delay please do not have them attend this daycare for they are not patient or even caring enough to work with you and your child to try and better them to succeed. They refused to help my child with his speech delay and they do not help potty train and if you are a single mom like me working a lot then that is key. This play is constantly getting new workers, my son had a different teacher aid in his classroom every three months. The owner dared to ask me for a note from my sons doctor so he could move into the preschool room after I just explained to her that my son is in speech therapy. This place isn't even worth the one star I'm giving them. THE WORST DAYCARE IN THE AREA!
