We went from 0 to 3 children under the age of 6 overnight, including one infant, and the wait lists and costs of care were dumbfounding. We both worked full time and wanted the time our children spent in care to be meaningful, memorable and educational. Then we found The Garden School. This school embraced our newly formed transracial family, provided unique opportunities for learning and engaged the children in a powerful way. Upon entering the facility, I immediately felt the love and creativity (the onsite animal ecosystem room was definitely a plus). In addition, the meals were healthy, activities were engaging and the staff (Edith and Judy, in particular) were genuine. Our children loved their time at the Garden School and even today, a decade and hundreds of miles later, each of my children receive a special birthday card and trademark stick of gum from the school. If you are looking for meaningful and educational childcare in Evansville, this is the place. I'm so grateful The Garden School is a part of our family story.
