I have a 10 year old boy who has been diagnosed with mild autism (ASD). He struggles most with…read moresocial interactions, the "give and take" of conversations, how to show interest in others' conversation, and how to appropriately join a dialogue. We have a full fall scheduled but this summer we attended a weekly class at Simply Social Kids. I am so glad we did! The instructor was wonderful! We spoke on the phone and over email and she was very receptive to keeping me updated on the week's activities. I learned behavior cues, to help my son stop and pause to allow other to speak. My son really enjoyed the activities, which to him were just play, while important social practice was embedded creatively by his instructor. I wish we were able to continue in the fall, but hopefully we can revisit in the spring. The director is committed to keeping her staff trained, comes with a great resume herself, and was extremely helpful. It is obvious these instructors have a passion for helping children be their best selves. Thank you Simply Social Kids for providing a safe and natural learning environment for my son to relax and be himself, learn about others and grow socially, without the critical eye of the world around him. I cannot thank you enough!

I couldn't imagine sending my children anywhere else. The school is ridiculously clean and well kept. The classrooms are totally adorable. The teachers are the best of the best. Kortney, the owner/director is the absolute best in the business. You can tell that she really cares about her students and families and is not just out for her bottom line. That is a breath of fresh air. The assistant director, Gabi, is completely the same. They both make you feel like you are part of their family. My daughter is happy & thriving with them and absolutely LOVES the spacious outdoor play area. They have made us feel safe and comfortable during COVID and best of all, given my daughter a sense of normalcy. I highly recommend this center to everyone and anyone!

***OWNERS WILL KICK YOUR CHILD OUT IF THEY DO NOT NAP, FORCED NAPS ARE REQUIRED HERE***…read more When it comes time for enrollment, they will say ANYTHING for you to enroll. Make sure you get it in writing first. They told us Drop off time we had in mind would not matter at all! Now they are kicking my child out due to drop off time that they set and we followed along with not taking a nap (WHICH IS NOT REQUIRED BY THE WAY) There was a time my daughter was not fed anything inside of her lunch box and I Contacted useless Kaitlynn and she never responded. So I decided to contact the owners and they respond 4 days later stating that they didn't think it was important enough to respond because it wasn't that serious! I guess feeding my daughter in their supervision was not that important to them! New Director (Kaitlynn Strand) is as useless as they come. Owner and her husband are just as useless and arrogant/ ignorant. These clowns sent me an email 9/10/25 after I sign my daughter out and leave the parking lot that after 9/12/25, Mia is no longer allowed in the facility because she does not take naps. No other child was targeted but mine! My daughters last day there I was told by the arrogant husband that I do not know how to run a business. Clearly not knowing that I run 2 businesses. He must think he is the only businessman in Windham, NH I will reporting this to every department possible because what they are doing are so wrong in so many levels! Side note: Would love to give huge thanks to Miss Leah, Miss Danielle and the other 2 staff for giving unconditional love to Mia! I noticed it from a mile away and I thank you for that! I hope you reach your furthest point in your careers and not with this joke of a facility. As for Miss Mia, it is a shame you share the same name as my daughter. You are a complete joke along with your director and bosses. Thank you (sarcastically) for being 2 faced. When Mia's mom asked you how are things with new time drop off etc you said everything is perfect. Then go to your director and bosses complaining. Thank you for setting this all up! I Hope karma hits you in the worst way possible! Your bosses you cry to about my daughter told me everything! You would complain Mia wouldn't nap because you didn't get time to be on your phone!

I have 2 sons. My older went to ACA for 3 years starting out in pre-K when we moved to the area…read more When I had my second child it was not even a discussion for us about where to send him while we are at work. ACA has been like extended family for us. We love all the teachers and never have to worry about the kids while they are in the good care of the staff at ACA. My kids have always come home happy and what could be more important than coming back to see your kids have had a great day. This is the one place which offers a huge amount and variety of field trips from taking the kids to Boston Commons to the Musical theaters in Beverly and farms for petting. I would recommend ACA to all my friends.

P.S.My older kids who are high school kids by now,LOVE to go there and visit(a lot of great memories!!)

Always proudly telling me what he learned that day in circle when I pick him up! They've helped him learn to write very well! Always excited to show me the cute projects they do during the day as well! The best part is the KinderCare App!! I can't express enough how much I love it! I get updates throughout the day while he's there that tells me what he ate, diapers/toileting/Nap/Daily Notes/Direct Messages/ and best of all PICTURES! I love seeing photos of my son throught the day while im working! When I miss him, I'm able to check in and see what he's up to and then we get to look at them when we are home and we will often talk about it together! The BEST quality this daycare has is their very friendly staff! Both directors are extremely nice and quick to help with anything! All the teachers are super friendly! Love to tell me stories of funny things he did throughout the day! This daycare truly feels like extended family!! We came here to learn, and to have fun! But never expected to feel so at home here! The staff members truly feel like family at this point and I absolutely love them!! I am so grateful to be able to be able to go to work feeling so comfortable knowing my son is in amazing hands!

This place has exceeded my expectations of what the perfect gym for a mom would be- I look forward…read moreto going here not only to work out, but to get some time for myself which is hard as a mother. The first time I went to a Mom's Village when they were renting out a studio, I didn't know what to expect but I had felt so isolated as a new mother and wanted to work on getting a piece of myself back. I was also nervous about leaving my daughter, who was only 1 at the time, with anyone but family. I gave it a chance anyway and I am so happy I did. Never once did I worry about my daughter being safe and cared for by the childcare at the Village. The fitness classes have always pushed me and given me the variety I like- offering barre, kickboxing, HIIT, yoga, among others. The instructors are always helpful with modifications, while making sure you are getting the challenge you want/need. To have the amenities to go take a shower in peace or sit in the mommy lounge to have a hot cup of coffee while socializing without any interruptions is priceless. The community that has been built by Steph, Cindy and Lindsey can not be beat- it's mom supporting moms and enjoying this time of our lives together. I am forever grateful to have found this place.

My son has gone here for several years, and i was shocked to read the other review- but honestly…read moretypically people only review when angry. My son started this daycare as a painfully shy young kid, and he has grown so much. He loves the teachers and the kids there so much, they are super responsive with us; and I love him going there as well. We also had him picked up there for his preschool regularly and was great we were able to do that. Before sending my son here we had him going in Tyngsboro, MA (which was obviously a long drive there and back) because of how picky i was with daycares- but have nothing bad to say and honestly only praise with this one. Both myself, my son and my husband will be very sad when he will be full time in school and unable to come here regularly and hope my infant will be able to come here as well.

This is not a rant, this is a lengthy letter describing a factual recent event and should be read…read morethoroughly by parents who are contemplating this school as an option. To each their own, but here is my experience: The school is ran by teachers you'll never meet, and most if not all, seem to not be actual teachers with degrees but parents filling in to help, operated by a woman who will insult your child to your face while on the front steps of the school. They will give up on your child because of their inability to discipline or educate, that was made clear right away, when I was told they don't discipline. I was concerNed to hear this when the words came out of the woman's mouth (a few months back) but since meetings or proper discussions aren't a practice of theirs (always rushed with the door barely opened) I thought, this is a temporary babysitting space my daughter seems 2 enjoy, while we wait for our school of choice to have openings. Apparently my 4 year old took out her lunch instead of her snack so this means she has cognitive issues. Careful this place is dangerous, anyone who is NOT medically trained, who does not hold a degree in psychology or a phd, has NO RIGHT TO THROW MEDICAL LABLES ON YOUR CHILD because they simply claim to speak from experience. I have been a mother for 18 years, I am however not a trained professional in psychiatry, psychology, you won't see me labeling your child's physical or mental condition... Three kids, ranging from ages 18 to 4 and I have NEVER had a "teacher, school director" handle herself the way she did yesterday; this woman was seething with rage, like an old poodle! Throwing out a diagnosis of my child, while on the front steps of the school, a rushed conversation at pick up/drop off, while other parents are dropping off their kids... (Meeting like these are handled in a professional setting/manner in private, with supporting documents/notes to go over) & If you dare challenge the woman's un-educated diagnosis be prepared to get kicked off the property with the door slammed to your face while your child is still in the school! (don't worry I immediately removed my child from the erratic woman's grip, forcing myself back into the school, while this woman is screaming for the cops to be called, scaring the children, my child and Honestly everyone else)... As an expert parent however, having sent my three kids to several different schools over the years, what I can tell you with certainty is they have no idea how to educate children and clearly the tired director with twenty years experience should go on a leave of absence, she has no business being with small children. As for curriculum, the kids' daily activities are done on scrap paper, with writings on the back, looks like they tear paper out of old books or folders (not school related) and give to the kids to scribble On. Mind you it costs $255 a week. Your kids clothes and personal belongings will always be lost, misplaced or given to another child; we are out a sleeping bag, two pairs of shoes and at least 10 sweaters, I don't have the money to replace these items. When you ask for these items you will be told to wait phtisies, as you are never allowed in the school, for them to hand you over a bunch of items not one being your childs. Super shady. Back to my main point, they don't know how to discipline or teach toddlers, they will just tell you your child is the issue if your child is rambunctious, a toddler. Your 3 1/2, 4 year old child is the issue. Here's the kicker, they will not tell you anything to lead up to these claims or diagnosis. Over the last 8 months I was told twice (at pick up on these lovely front steps, with the door half open, her wretched head sticking out) that my child was a bit "tough" today... but that's it. So Let this sink in, you could be told your child has abnormal behaviors and these should be assessed, out of the blue, while standing on the front steps of this dump whole, with other parents around, and if you dare ask questions or offer tips or challenge the behavioral diagnosis, you will be kicked off the property, door slammed in your face... My daughter is now 4, she attends two other programs (gym and play group) and these two other businesses could not believe what was said by this woman about my typical 4 year old, shocked but mostly astonished as to how this was brought up to me. This school is a dump whole, and I am riddled with guilt for leaving my baby in their care over the last 8 months! I can't stress this enough, if it doesn't feel right, even though "it must be" and your child seems happy, pull your kid out or investigate.. do your due diligence. Because she's my third, I assumed she was ok even though the school didn't seem amazing or ideal, I ignored the little red flags. Shame on me. Shame on this school for being opened

Wonderful Daycare Experience…read more We absolutely loved our experience at this in-home daycare in Chelmsford! Both my infant and my 3-year-old attended, and I couldn't have been happier with the care they received. Everyone was so loving, caring, and attentive to both of my children. They provide meals, take the children on fun trips to the library, and offer so many interactive and imaginative play opportunities. The kids are constantly learning through play while developing important motor skills and other developmental skills in a fun, engaging environment. It truly felt like a home away from home for my children. I always felt comfortable knowing they were being cared for, loved, and given opportunities to learn and explore every day. I would highly recommend this daycare to any family looking for a warm, nurturing, and engaging place for their little ones!

In my search for a realiable daycare for my daughter to attend, I felt overwhelmed. When I met with…read moreJill at Preschool Playhouse, I felt all my worries dissapear right away. She is very friendly and extremely involved with the children she takes care of. As a single mother it is hard to keep everything in balance all the time. Jill understands these circumstances and is very flexible with the days I can bring my daughter. My daughter has now been with her for at least a month and I am more than pleased with Preschool Playhouse. My daughter loves going and I love the updates I get throughout the day about how she is and what they are doing. I also like the fact that this is not a babysitting service, this is a daycare that provides children with a educational experience and friendly social interations. I highly reccommend this daycare to anyone looking for something reliable and friendly.
