My child went to kinder care and I WOULD NOT recommend sending your kids there. One of my friends…read morewho is a teacher at another kinder care told me about the kinder care in Cheshire, since it was closer to my job. However that place has gone down hill and The teachers are so rude! They have an extremely high turn around rate where all the teachers leave in waves. So it's very unstable for children there. Nicole Lockwood the assistant director is extremely immature. I have come in to drop off or pick my kid up and have personally heard her talking badly about HER co workers. I have talked to the director Kristin about this. And STILL nothing has changed. Kristin just sits in her office and doesn't help where it is needed. I have come in to kids screaming and no one attending to them. The toddler teacher Lauren is always standing with her back faced towards kids, I have seen her using her phone. I know A LOT of parents that I have talked to have complained about Lauren and yet she is still allowed to be left alone Not supervising the children. I had one of my kids in toddlers for a while and she doesn't do any activities with them. I went in that room for a month and nothing was added or changed on the walls. WE pay for curriculum and early learning and I have yet to see that. That place is not somewhere I would ever want my kids again. There is absolutely no structure and the assistant director is rude and the director does absolutely nothing about it! Not to mention my friend went over to the Cheshire kinder care to help them out where they were short staffed and they were out of ratio, they weren't allowed bathroom breaks and the teachers were rude to her. She said she would never go back there even just to help the center out! Do NOT send your kids here. And DO NOT ever apply to work there, you are wasting your time.

ImagiNation constantly updates their facilities and we have been going to this place for years…read more They adjust their rooms and facility for changing child interests. They have a lot of Open Ended play and they offer some real cool opportunities to let your child explore their imagination. They have an Art room, a Animal exhibit room, a doctors office area that looks EXACTLY like a doctors office, an kitchen area built to look like a kitchen, a place to put on a play with stage lights and so much more. We loved the new changes so much we got a family season pass. This is not only the perfect place to bring kids on a weekend but a cool place for parties. They are a non-profit Childrens Museum but put ALOT of thought into making it more like an experience than anything else. Bring your kid (s) and you wont regret it. Just be aware though that parking is accessed from the street behind the museum so it might be confusing at first. Enjoy

This is a great little school that offers programs for ages 3 and 4. It's only 2.5 hours a day but…read morethat time frame really involves a great deal of education. In fact, I didn't realize how important preschool truly was until my son went on to kindergarten (which is why I think this review matters, we are talking experience here!). During the first parent/teacher conference at his kindergarten, I learned that my son was ahead of many of his classmates on many levels. And based on his first report card, I know that's because of what he learned at Terry Nursery. If I could give any advice to a parent of a 3 year old, it would be to not discredit the importance of a good preschool. It's more than just learning letters & numbers. We, as parents could teach them that at home. But in preschool, they are making friends and learning to work together. They are learning what it's like to be in a structured classroom, have a snack break, to listen to an adult who isn't their parent. When they have show'n'tell, they are learning what it's like to give a class presentation. I don't think I'm even doing justice to this school with my review. All I can say is ... do your research. Check them out! The teachers are great!

After doing extensive research in the area for preschool curriculums Doodlebugz has far more to offer. They pull professionals in to educate the kids with music lessons, cooking classes, top notch learning and great extra activities like yoga, gymnastics and soccer. It is privately owned by someone who has kids which is why I believe they truly do care...as for the baby room as well as all the other room stages. Your baby/toddler will never be better taken care of :) I would recommend Doodlebugz to everyone!
