I would give this facility 4.75 stars…read more I have hesitated to post my review since I wanted to make sure my review was thoughtfully laid out. We started at this facility in 2012, when my first was 7 months old. My second started when he was 6 months old in 2017. We left in September 2017 when my oldest went to K because we don't live in the vicinity and I had been driving back and forth from LI ever since my son turned 1. We loved the facility, the (mostly) caring staff and the "human" directors. Why do I say "human"? Because they really care about your kids, and notice things such as possible delays, and address issues with the kids. Yes, there are some teachers/assistants I didn't like. One teacher, in particular, who would always put my son in a high chair because he "misbehaved" and then leave him there until I came to pick up. I never saw her again after that one year so seemed like Jane got rid of her. But the majority of the teachers are excellent. Ms. Maria (who got promoted to head office), Ms. Melissa, Ms. Una, Ms., Brittany. Loving, caring, dedicated teachers. My older son grew up with these teachers and assistants. They know and love him. Ms. Ali, who we miss every single day, treated my son like her own. Teachers jokingly called my son her godson. My son is also pretty fluent in Chinese, which I have for thank PofA for. I requested the Chinese teachers to speak to him in Chinese as much as possible. My younger son now goes to an all American facility so will likely be lacking in the Chinese language department. All in all a great school.

When I was looking for a daycare for my son, I visited several daycares in the area and nothing was…read morecomparable to this Preschool of America. This facility is quite large, there is a library, a gym, an outdoor playground and a large parking lot for parents to park during pickup and drop-off.  There is also a kitchen, all food served to the students are made onsite. Parents are welcome to bring home food for their kids too (with the exception of nuts, this is a nut free school). My son was under 1, so he was placed in the infant room.  The two teachers were very attentive to my son's needs, anything we requested they would accommodate. I usually spent a few minutes chatting with the teachers when I picked him up and I could tell that they paid attention to what my boy was doing. My second boy also started attending this school when he was 6 months old, and his teachers were also warm and loving. My boys always smile when they see their teachers every day! The school offers tons of activities, there is the regular Kung-Fu, yoga, Chinese and music as well as extracurricular classes (additional fees), piano, reading, ballet and art. Not to mention all the fun activities they already do, celebrate fall with apple tasting, funky hat day for Dr. seuss' Cat in the Hat, visits from local librarians and fire fighters, hunt for the Pot of Gold on St. Patrick's day, parents reading to the kids on pajama days....just to name a few. The teachers my sons have are all engaging, loving and wonderful. They not only pay attention to each child's need but also think of ways to gently encourage them to do better on their own. The school directors are Jane and Una, they are friendly, approachable and responsive to parents' concerns and ideas. They send email communications often and usually attach pictures of the students enjoying school activities. They really do a fantastic job in making the school a safe and happy environment for the kids. My boys are happy to go to Preschool of America and it gives me peace of mind knowing they are well taken care of every day.
