    Absolutely LOVE Jack & Jill! Out little one had been in a in home setting that didn't work,…read moreBealeton COA that closed. When COA was closing their doors we did not receive the greatest heads up. I met with Mrs. Lis as soon as I could, she was very accommodating on getting us in. Our little guys has now been there for 7 months and couldn't be happier! Communication is key and everyone is always sure to respond promptly. So appreciative of everyone that works for Jack & Jill!

    My child attended this school for quite some time. To say that they need an improvement and to step…read moreup their game is an understatement. Lunch is provided only Monday - Thursday. Friday you are required to pack. They are constantly changing the classroom that your child is in (also changing the teacher) which becomes very confusing, not only for the child but for the parent as well. You never know where to drop off or pick up your child because again, they are switching rooms way too much. When you pick up your child, you can never find them, you must also search each room for their coat and belongings because NO ONE has any idea where they are!! And they never bother to help find them either. The teachers do not teach a meaningful curriculum, which is not their fault but I still needed to point out. The preschool program does not start until age 4, which only gives the child a year to learn the necessities they need before kindergarten. Which I feel is not enough time at all. In the time that my child attended here, I noticed no difference in his knowledge. In fact, I noticed that his behavior continued to get worse. Maybe due to the fact that there is no consistency in this school, or maybe the fact that he continued to get into trouble for petty things. ( for example, I received a Letter home that he had a bad day for trying to kiss a friend, and because he dropped a cookie and ate it off the floor). Typical 3 year old behavior. I complained at one point because he continued to come up with poopy underwear and no one would notice and change him (even though he stunk) and no one would help him to wipe to prevent this issue. Literally THE NEXT WEEK after I complained, I was bombarded with a meeting when I walked in for pickup stating that my child's behavior has been out of control for months and was basically given no choice by the owner and director but to get my child tested for special needs. What!?!? I was confused as to why his behavior WAS NEVER mentioned before. I can not tell you how much my son has improved since LEAVING this school. He knows his ABC's, he can count to 10 in Spanish, his behavior has improved DRAMATICALLY, he even comes home singing songs that he learned. The best thing about this school was our last day and never having to come back!!!! There are a few good teachers, but the director Ms. Wally and owner Ms. Liz just make this place hell in a hand basket. NOT the jack and Jill school that it used to be when I attended as a child! UPDATE: there was never a five star review and no one ever tried to "help" my child. If you consider forcing us to get him tested for special needs because he doesn't "behave like a normal three year old" (even though his pediatrician, special needs teacher that we spoke to, and multiple friends and family members said he is completely normal and actually advanced for his age!!) and having him come home crying everyday because his teacher was "mean to him" and he got in trouble for kissing a friend or eating the cookie off the floor that he dropped, if you consider that to be "helping him", then maybe you are the one that needs to be tested! This school helped with nothing but making our lives a nightmare for the last few months. I wish I had listened to the previous employee who warned me not to send my child here. Just beware!!

    Do not send your child(ren) to COA of Warrenton!! We were there for less than 1 month and…read moreimmediately withdrew because of how we observed the staff speaking to the children. (elementary school age) The children were spoken to as if their hearts, minds, and spirits didn't matter and as if the teachers didn't want to be there. My child was referred to as this child, despite my stating her name four times within the conversation. The teachers talk to the kids as if they are a nuisance, and the observed tone and word choice they use with the children are so disheartening. It broke our hearts to hear our child's feedback when we asked how the day went. ( Teachers yelling at kids, kids told to 'shut up', children ignored, etc.) We decided to observe the atmosphere ourselves before making any changes in childcare and sadly discovered that our child was 1000% spot on! We observed children being spoken to very unkindly, a teacher yelling at a kid and pointing at them while saying, "Get out!" just because the child told her friend their mom was there for pick-up. We also observed the children's expressions when spoken to this way. The kids' hearts and feelings were visibly broken and destroyed by the teachers' aggressive, destructive word choice and delivery. In addition to what would be considered verbal abuse in many households, they also overcharged us and would not return the money. We are a military family and were granted a military discount. The first charge exceeded the agreed upon contracted value. When I noted this, a credit was placed on my account and I was told "They won't give your money back." And sure enough, at withdrawal, they declined to return the money that they erroneously withdrew from my account. We had high hopes in COA of Warrenton, despite the reviews online. The Director, David, was pleasant and appeared to truly care about the children. Everything else was a train wreck and I would not recommend ANYONE take their children to COA of Warrenton until there is a new team onboard. This was by far the WORST EXPERIENCE we have ever had with a childcare facility. Find an alternate childcare solution AND AVOID COA OF WARRENTON!!!!!

The children's food is well made with good ingredients. I have zero complaints about the school for the 3.5 years my child attended.

We were looking for a school in the area that was not only rich in their curriculum, but a school that was diverse in its culture and one that embraced children of all ethnicities. I noticed that during Black Histoy Month (2/2023), there were no initiatives highlighted in the February Monthly newsletter to recognize the contributions of the many African-Americans that have contributed to American History. I decided to email the staff with ideas in which Black History Month could be incorporated into the curriculum, considering that there were a number of African-American students enrolled at HCA. I received a phone call immediately from one of the Administrators (Mrs. Juliana) stating that this was an oversight and that they would be sure to highlight Black History Month. I had a follow-up conversation with the Curriculum Specialist (Mrs. Giovanna)...and to my surprise, she had incorporated many of the items that I highlighted in my email! Not to mention, how swiftly she acted upon this. I would like to extend my SINCEREST gratitude for all that HCA has done for Black History Month and everything that they are instilling in my children daily. I was thoroughly impressed with the various learning activities the students participated in throughout the month. They exceeded my expectations on highlighting African-American culture and the many great achievements of some of the well-known Black pioneers that have contributed to AMERICAN HISTORY. Efforts such as these make my husband and I confident that we have selected the right school for our children. We look forward to our children thriving in a school environment that promotes diversity and inclusion, as well as high educational standards. Job well done HCA!!
