Mrs Khan has been taking great care of my daughter. My 1st child and I didn't know much about a…read moreschedule or feeding or what to do when my daughter gets constipated and she was patient and would tell me what to do. My daughter loved going to the daycare, I feel fortunate that my daughter was under Mrs Khan's care. She took videos of her and I always felt that my daughter was also being disciplined. She also got my daughter gifts which shows how much she truly loves the kids and it's not just business for her which is quite important for any mum and kid to feel. Thank you so much

Ms. Khan is the best you can get. She is very caring and my daughter loves going to Daycare. She…read moresets up the rules (eat/nap/play on time, regular potty, stick to the schedule) with the kids and my daughter in fact behaves much better in Daycare than at home. Also, Ms Kahn is very flexible to accommodate our schedule when she can arrange. And in emergent cases when we are running late, I just send her a message and she will take care of the kids. She also sends me photos and updates during the day if anything unusual (sometimes just that the kids are having a lot of fun playing something). She moved to her new house this summer which is spacious and super neat. A lot of room for the kids to play (we've checked other familly care in residential houses, way too crowded). Last but not least, she remembers my daughter's birthday and sent her a nice gift as well as a Christmas gift. We feel very lucky to have found Ms Kahn on Yelp. Highly recommend! Especially for new born to 2.5 years old babies.

My son has loved his time in daycare here. It's a warm and welcoming environment with attention to…read moreroutine, playtime, and enrichment through daily activities as well as imaginative play. I've never seen him adapt so quickly to a childcare center - or be so proud of his budding skills (putting shoes on, packing his book bag). We especially love the great use of the local park for their outdoor time. All the teachers are professionals and form great bonds with their students.

My daughter has been at FCP since she was 2 1/2, she is now almost 5 years old. I can go on and on…read moreall day about the many wonderful aspects of this school. The teachers are very caring and love those kids dearly. The curriculum is great, they are exposed to Russian and French as well as many different field trips and visits from local professionals (firefighters, police, karate instructors). There are spring, summer, fall and winter parties for all of your family to go and enjoy if your schedule allows, there are a few picnics on weekends and there is a parents night out. Parents can be as involved or not involved as they'd like. There is an open door policy and I have dropped in at random times to find everyone so cheerful and well taken care of. They go to Cherry Hill Park and the library across the street almost daily as long as weather permits. My husband and I work full time and I have to say they are wonderful when it comes to staying open with inclement weather as much as they possibly can. In the past 2 years I can barely count on one hand the number of times they have opened late or closed early because of snow. They really do all they can to be there for us working parents because a lot of us have jobs that don't close for snow like the government does. Elena is the owner/director and she is so greatly involved with everything. She's very responsive to all e-mails, phone calls. She's often there working with the kids and teachers. In a nutshell, I will be so sad for my daughter to graduate and be going to kindergarten in the fall. This is an amazing school and I'd recommend it to anyone.

We have had an incredibly positive experience with My Little Tree Daycare. We moved to the area…read moreabout a year ago, and it was tough to get settled. It was such a relief to find such a loving and caring environment for our 12-month-old daughter. Our daughter adores Tomas and Nancy (and so do her parents). They have built a caring, loving, nurturing, and educational environment for children. The daycare is extremely clean and spacious. They speak English and Spanish to the children. I was very impressed when my daughter began to speak Spanish words at home. They have built a curriculum that focuses on each child's specific needs. All the children get along very well, and the older children are very mindful of the little ones. The children do plenty of arts and crafts and a variety of stimulating activities. Tomas and Nancy have offered valuable information and support when I asked for advice on developmental stages that my child has gone through. They are extremely patient and kind. They celebrate holidays and every child's birthday. I feel so lucky to have found My Little Tree Daycare. I really cannot think of a single complaint. Our daughter gets excited when we drop her off every single morning.

This is how we have chosen to spend our days. We are both very tolerant individuals with an enormous amount of patience. This coupled with our love for children makes us nurturing childcare providers. Having two children of our own, we understand how difficult it must be to leave your child in someone's care. Because of this, we can appreciate the trust you must put in us on a daily basis. Our goal is to build your trust by being professional, dependable, honest, and most importantly caring for your child the same way we would want our own children to be cared for. We view our chosen profession as a career, not as just a job. We look forward to keeping children smiling and safe for many years to come.

This school is not good for the wellbeing of your child. Firstly, the lunchtime is 25 minutes…read more They only are able to go outside twice a week, for 25 minutes each day. My child's classmate reported a peer being punched in the face and the teachers doing nothing about it. The curriculum is very rigorous, which is great, however, 1 unit in almost every class usually lasts around 3-4 days: they cover too much in such a short period of time to try to cram everything in, and make the students learn the material through constant assessments. This is fine as they get a wide berth of knowledge, but don't learn the "in-depth" material and reasons behind the concepts unless they stay for another few years (this is because of their "spiraling" curriculum where they revisit concepts to add more depth). Every week, they have at least 1 quiz/test, (because of their math studies), but most weeks, it's 2 or 3. In addition to this, if your child stops for 30 seconds to tie their shoe 2 minutes after dismissal times due to a bathroom stop, they will immediately be asked to attend "Late Bird" for ~$45 because they are "delaying". There is no PE for middle/high school unless you take it as an elective. Lastly, the culture there is very toxic. There is hardly any sense of community as everyone is competing with each other and children often learn, from their peers, to believe that receiving a 99% on their test is "poor performance". The teachers do little to combat this, and this is the same attitude they have towards kids calling out derogatory comments in the midst of lessons.

Been at the school for a few years. Staff retention is an issue with teachers frequently and…read moresuddenly leaving (usually less than 1 week notice). Have experienced this 4 times in just a handful of years. Leadership turnover is also near constant. COVID response has been insufficient with a refusal to innovate, use outdoor spaces, invest in classroom cameras or communicate an objective decision matrix for return to class. Plus unqualified tuition increases occur every year. Curriculum remains excellent. Teachers are wonderful too.
