Now 4 of my children have attended Cathy's, with the youngest graduating this spring. My opinion…read moreof Cathy's, over 8 years, is still positive. Sometimes Cathy can be opinionated, and very frank when talking with parents. She has been with me. She has strict rules for lunches (no popcorn, grapes must be cut, etc.), but she is always motivated by the best interest of the children. The teachers are all warm, dedicated and knowledgeable. This school is a local institution for a reason- there are very few traditional nursery schools left in the area. In the last few years, Cathy has updated the facility and added more options for the days/times students can attend (lunch, 5 day and full day options)- she has not changed her dedication to preparing our little ones for school through social and play based learning.

The school itself is clean and inviting. My son wakes up every day and asks if he can go to nursery school that day. I have been at other schools and this is by far the best around.

We couldn't be more grateful that we found Jasna and her staff at Kids Village. They are the best…read moremix of high quality daycare providers that you would get from a standard home daycare & larger daycare center. They truly feel like part of the family, helping to raise our daughter in a loving environment; and they operate a reliable business. For example, Kids Village always prepares for coverage during their personal time off; whereas a typical home daycare provider will take vacation time off, and you will need to adjust accordingly. On the flip side, they offer off hours child care with someone that your child is already familiar with. This is extremely important to us, as we don't have any family nearby for nights/weekend babysitting. The size is just right too; not too big where our daughter's only exposed to her own age range, and not too small where she doesn't have plenty of role models (and opportunity to be a role model). We have been so pleased with the clean, loving, fun, nurturing, educational environment that they've created. They truly are helping us raise our daughter, the way we could've only wished for.

It takes a special person to do what these ladies do and they do it very well. My son loves them, as do I, we feel like we are part of a family. As a first time mom, it was tough trusting the care for my son to another, but at our first meeting it felt warm and inviting like I've known them forever and had no doubts that this was the place for us. My son just turned 19 months old and I've been amazed at how fast he's learning. They are great teachers, role models and all around great people. Thank you for taking such great care of my son and teaching him everyday. We love you all very much.

My child went to MDD from 9 months to 27 months. There are so many wrong things about this daycare…read more My child was so miserable there. Every morning she was crying not to go daycare because her teachers force her to follow every rule. I feel terrible that I didn't take my child from this daycare early enough. -Till 21 months, my child was in the infant room. 21 month old toddler and 3 month old were in the same room. Their needs are so different from each other. But daycare doesn't care about their development needs. They didn't give fork/spoon during her lunch in infant room. -The classroom my child goes had 4 times flea problem in 2 months. My child got constantly got ticks/fleas in this daycare. My child also got so sick in this daycare. Almost once a month, she was getting a virus from daycare and not going to daycare because of fever. -It is not very clean place. Infant rooms smell like poopy diaper. -Transition from infant room to toddler room was not smooth. My child couldn't adjust to her teachers and had nightmares first months. They could transit slowly. -They don't use technology at all. They decide to close the daycare for half an inch snow and they don't send any email or text to parents. They put some sign in checking desk. Then you have to arrange your work last minute because of bad communication. -There are so many holidays, vacations, closings. You have to take so many day off from you work because of MDD's abundant holidays. -This daycare is very structured. Teacher prepares an art project and children make the same exact art and teacher is so proud of everybody did the same thing. It doesn't encourage creativity, self expression. -If it is music time, children have to sit in circle. If they stand, they are forced to sit. Everything is about following the rules. This is same for every activity. They are forced to do whatever teacher wants like a nun school. If child cries or doesn't want to participate a certain activity, teachers force them. They don't care what child wants. -You have to take your child to daycare at 9 am, if you are late, you might be invited to parent/teacher conference about how their program is structured and missing one activity will destroy the child such as such. -There is always birthday or some reason to eat cake,cupcake, ice cream or other junk food. One week, every other day my child ate sugary things. We don't give sugar to her at home. -The first thing teacher says to my child every morning "what pretty dress/cloth you have". I don't want my child appearance oriented. These praises are so wrong. -Teachers always say to toddlers, "you are big girl/boy, don't do this", "don't do that". It creates too much pressure on toddlers that they have to behave like big girl. They ignore child psychology. -They don't ask any feedback from parents, they don't listen. If you are late 1 minute, the director lectures you 5 min and you have to pay 5 min late fee thanks to her lecturing time. We were so miserable as a family in this daycare. We are so glad we left.

As a mom who had only let my mom and mother in law watch her while I was at work it was definitely an adjustment for me but Willow House showed me they care for my daughter just like she is part of their family. My daughter attends the preschool program three full days a week with the before and after care program and the amount she has learned in these past months is incredible. The preschool teacher Jess is amazing and the main reason why we picked this program. The lessons and themes are constantly changing and the children are learning new things everyday. I am amazed to see the progress my daughter has made thus far. When I ask my three year old what she loves about Willow House she tells me the activity centers which are constantly changing based on the theme of the week. I am so thankful to have found Willow House and would highly recommend this center to all my friends.

My daughter brought her 2 boys to this daycare center and under unfortunate situation my husband…read moreand I had to bring them their to this daycare. The owner seemed to be to invested in the lives of my grandchildren's parents. The reason why I say this is, because she would always ask questions about them and as a professional daycare owner, she should be reframing herself from those type of questions, because it's irrelevant. So, long story short the owner is upset, because my 1 1/2 year old was coming home literally with black eyes with a scratch like scar in the middle of the bruise like 1 week apart from each other. The first week it was the right eye and then I asked her what happened and her response was " I spoke to your husband already". Then she decided to respond to my question with he fell! and hit his eye with a toy and that accidence happen". Then the next following week the same exact bruise appeared on his left eye and her response was "he tripped over the rug". So, I then express my concerns to the DCF worker and she then calls me being very confrontational and stating that she is terminating the contract, because she said, that I complained about my grandchildren not being safe in her home, mind you she already got paid C4K for the two boys. I should add the pictures I took of my grandsons eyes just a week apart from each other, but I won't. The daycare provider for one needs to hire more workers to help out with the children in order to avoid them from getting hurt. She also needs to be more professional when dealing with the parents. Secondly, I never ever dealt with a daycare facility, that would say no to the parents better yet a DCF worker, that it's not okay to pick up there child when she receives, that phone call like really, that's just very bizarre and unprofessional. At the end of the day I am so glad, that the children are no longer under her care. I was always against home daycare and I was proven right. I can go on and on, but I said what I needed to say. I would like for everyone to really look into the places, that you choose to bring your children to, because your children are under there care for at least 8 hours a day, and because our children's safety should be our #1 main priority. Pay attention to your gut if it feels wrong then it's wrong.
