As a mom of 4, and former teacher, there is no better preschool for your child to attend to…read morenurture, care for, and prepare them for kindergarten. My oldest daughter just graduated from PCNS last year, and my younger 3 are still there now. To the false accusations made against Mrs. Hannavi, I am absolutely disgusted. My oldest daughter will tell any person who asks her that Mrs. Hannavi is the best teacher on the planet. My twins are currently in her class, and the ease I feel with having them with her everyday is immeasurable. She is their second mom, and they absolutely adore her. My one daughter was diagnosed with a developmental delay and sensory processing disorder at the age of 2. Because of this, she was accepted into the special needs program in Wayne, where she attended part time last year. She cried everyday and hated going there. I stuck to my gut and pulled her from the school to be with Mrs. Hannavi full time. I could not be happier with my decision. She is absolutely thriving, all because of her. She has a huge smile on her face everyday and absolutely loves school. PCNS is the best place for your babies. No questions.

I feel compelled to write a review in response to the comments made about Stephanie Hannavi…read more I have a son currently enrolled at PCNS, and all of my nieces and nephews attended PCNS. We have only ever known Mrs. Hannavi to be a kind, patient and caring teacher. I personally have only had pleasant interactions with her and have heard zero complaints from others. We have a responsibility to advocate for our children, but also to protect our truly wonderful teachers. Mrs. Hannavi is a wonderful teacher.

My daughter has been attending the Learning Experience in Wayne since she was 5 months old. As…read morefirst time parents, my husband and I have been incredibly happy and grateful to all of the staff. From the day we started I have never felt more confident in our child's safety, education, and well-being. From the moment you walk into the door every staff member greets us and knows my daughter's name and what to say if she is having a rough morning. Ms. Mayte and Ms. Alexis are always at the front desk with a smile and are always able to answer any questions or concerns. The director, Ms. Ariel is one of the first people to reach out if my daughter needs anything throughout the day as well as to help my daughter with anything she needs. She is also very open with communication which i find to be a huge comfort. Her teachers have been incredible from the infant class with Ms. Gigi, loving her as well as supporting and helping me through the early stages and milestones of her first months. Her favorite teacher; Ms. Chantel who has become her support person (as well as mine) has been there for her from learning to roll, taking her first steps, learning to speak, and so much more. She goes above and beyond to make sure she is feeling loved and safe throughout her day. As an educator myself, I am impressed with the curriculum and all of her teachers as she has progressed through the program. They have not only supported her, but have guided her through her milestones as well as educated her. Ms. Frida, Ms. Jacky, Ms. Maylee, Ms. Anna, Ms. Z, Ms. Zeba, Ms. Aimee, Ms. Isabella, Ms. Noelle, and countless others are incredible educators. I couldn't be more grateful for all they have done and continue to do for my daughter.

Hi Nicole! & Owner I just wanted to drop by and leave a…read morereview as told for your clients and future clients so they can see how you go to other facilities website and leave reviews to boost the stars up. She's a fraud. If a parent/sibling/aunt/uncle/grandmother& grandfather or a friend leaves a concern about a facility that isn't treating any child with special needs right, THEY HAVE A RIGHT to leave and & express the concern about the facility. For you to write a comment a day ago should be illegal. You should be ashamed of yourself and also the OWNERS for allowing you to do what you did. I do want to be complete honest, Nicole is the rudest director ever. This facility is a dump and they fake the funk all the way with the parents. Smile & then talk behind their backs in reference about their children. If I was you, I would be cautious about putting my kids into this daycare or wherever Nicole is. ;)

I'm writing this review with a heavy heart. I'm not one to bash any company! If I dislike any…read morecompany I just go about my day and don't return. Unfortunately, today I felt the need to review this business due to the trauma my son has been facing. My son attended this center for less than 8 months. In which two major head injuries occurred (see photo). One hematoma on the forehead which has left him with permanent muscle tear and is visible when he cries or laughs real big. Second injury was staples on his head because they allowed another child to hit my son with a very heavy plastic toy that gashed my son's head pretty deep. This is not ALL staff but certainly some young ones who clearly are not meant to be in The field to care for children. Sadly also management not being more proactive to make sure teachers are more aware of the children's surroundings. These are only 2 incidents that I felt justifiable enough never to return. There were other incidents of my child constantly being bitten. My reason for writing this is because the staples incident occurred 4/4/2025 and today my son had a complete meltdown scared to return to a new daycare... still naming the child from kindercare who hurt him. I'm not blaming the child I'm blaming management for having people who don't care and for not being more involved in the classroom. When my husband returned the following Monday to retrieve our sons belongings the staff didn't even bat an eye and that's very sad to hear. The reviews you see here are from management office pushing to get reviews from both parents and staff. They aren't real reviews. I only know this because I was one of the parents who received those request in November/December. Due to the biting incidents it took me awhile to review. But after the hematoma I removed it. All bad reviews seem to have been deleted. I hope they do better... for the children's safety and for the parents who have to work and shouldn't have to worry about their children's safety.

I signed up my daughter for this school's summer program in Feb. Last week Wednesday, I was sent…read morean invoice for the full first month payment plus $300 in fees. Total charge was $2,400 for one month of summer camp. The price is not my main issue. Its the manner in which they bill and THREATEN. I usually send my daughter to Lightbridge which has smaller class sizes and is a better school IMO and have never been billed in that manner. Apple Montesorri billing practice is threatening and predatory in nature. On Monday, 3/20, I received an email indicating paymment should in full in 2 days or "your application will be denied". . I didnt want my daughter to attend a school with such practices so I didnt pay tge inviice forgetting that I had given them my credit card info. . My card was charged on Friday 3/24. Today on 3/27, I contacted them telling the school I'm no longr interested in their summer program. They claim I cant reverse the charge and my daughter must attend their summer program that starts 2 months away. I've already called my bank to reverse the charge. But had to leave a review as this practice is predatory and manipulative. I only wanted my daughter to attend due to the daily swim classes n activities. But I could not in good faith support a school thats so impersonal and threatens parents. Their proram doent start till after July 4 by tge way. We're still in March!.

From the moment we stepped foot inside to tour the facility we felt a comfortable, friendly, positive vibe. The facility is clean, spacious, modern and organized. The classrooms are always neat and tidy. The staff is extremely welcoming and have become like our family. With every classroom our child has been in, we find a bond with the teachers which is so important when these are the people spending all of their time with your child. The curriculum is also so incredibly enriching. Our almost 2 year old can count to 20, sing along to the ABCs and spell his name..... it's incredible! We absolutely love everything about Primrose and really have them to thank for guiding our child in the right direction to prepare him for grade school.

If you are thinking about bringing your children to this facility think again! First, let me start…read morewith their teachers high turnover rate. My son has been in the toddler class for 6 months and we've been through approximately 1 teacher every month! Understandable for the underpayment they receive, but terrible for our children! Then they demand appreciation for their teachers from parents on days like "appreciation week"! NO, they need appreciate their own teachers by paying them enough to last more than one month! so don't try to bond with a teacher over here because they're on the go! Even the principal left a few months after the school opened and now they have a new one! The school had a COVID case back in July but unlike all other daycares that close one to tow weeks to insure everyones safety, they remained open because their main goal is collecting money. I had to keep my son home for a few weeks because we had a newborn. Not even one person bothered to check on my son to see if he's okay! This also applies to when the boy is absent you never hear from them! Again, unlike other daycares visits are not allowed, bringing cake for your kids birthdays isn't allowed, I was told not to put any candy in my son's birthday giveaway bags but we personally received bags with tons of candy from other children! Hmmm the rules don't apply for everyone!! I sent an organic ointment with my sons belongings with his name printed on it, that ointment was no where to be found! So I bought and sent a new one! Funny enough when I decided to pull my son out and received his belongings, again the ointment wasn't there! Seems like this ointment is someone's favorite over there! On the parent forum "Bright wheel" we would receive a picture with many clothing items with the following question "Is any of these items for your son?" How tacky and unprofessional is this! A few days ago, I dropped the boy off to only receive a voicemail while getting into my complex elevator that exactly states: "your son is upset and he ran right into the door and when we tried to pick him up to console him he threw himself on the floor and he bumped his head a pretty good bump" then moving forward to the accident report I received for this incident it exactly states: "Your son banged his head on the door twice and threw himself face first on the ground and hit his head" WOW! Which statement should I believe? I said show me the cameras I would like to see it in action because my son has never done this before. Sure enough the principal refused. Not only their accident report statement is vague but it's very insulting for me as a mother, and for my 2 years old son as well. So does all their other accident reports. They want you to believe there's something wrong with your child and it's him to blame for incidents. I don't invest into teaching my son to wake up and start banging his head randomly NO! Shame on them if their accusations is right pushing a child to behave this way! Everyone was horrified of my son's head injury including his doctor who asked us if we saw the cameras? Everyone is having a very hard time believing that my son would do this to himself! Everyone is suggesting that police should be involved. 2 days after his head injury he goes back to Everbrook and right after they received him, I receive a text on brightwheel saying: "your son was upset I tried comforting him but it wasn't working and resulted on him wanting to hit his head on the floor" Really? IF I believe their accusations, what would push a happy child to hurt himself over there? What makes those big negative feelings of a child surface at daycare that we NEVER see at home? Never heard of child wanting to bang their head after "consoling and comforting them"! How about the reason? The cause? They fail to contain the child, handle their emotions or communicate on his level appropriately. I then realized my son wasn't in a safe environment and needed out of that place immediately! I am as a mother traumatized of this experience that resulted in my son's head injury ( pictures attached) and I won't be sending him to daycare .. they don't care for children they rather complete tasks to receive a pay. I feel he's in a safe place now with me at home. Avoid Everbrook Academy at all costs!
