Our daughter has been attending this school for the past month in the ages 2-3 classroom. She just…read moreturned 3. We love the school. I love that every new teacher is trained before they join a class, and so they are consistently able to meet each child at where the child is individually at a social, emotional, and intellectual level. I love that there are no time-outs, and there is plenty of positive reinforcement. The teachers are so kind, and full of empathy and compassion, that it takes any pressure off the kids and creates an environment of unconditional acceptance. Lacey and Paige and all the staff are simply wonderful with the kids. Our own daughter used to have meltdowns, and since she has come here, they have completely stopped. They respect that she doesn't like to be touched and doesn't like to have an audience while going potty. We know she is receiving individualized attention, because we see improvements daily. In under 3 weeks, she came home able to pronounce certain sounds that she struggled with - as a result, we were able to understand her better, which resulted in her being a lot calmer. The classrooms are full of natural light, and they have a sweet play area in the back with a play set and a sand box. There are plenty of sensory materials available. The children have access to various art media and materials also. Within the first month of school, they have used Play-Doh to build habitats for animals in the grasslands, they've made animal footprints using plaster (assisted by their teacher, of course), have painted with watercolors while listening to music, drawn self-portraits by looking into mirrors, and have made multimedia seashell and sand collages, among other things. The art is not constrained and Pinterest-worthy - instead, experiences are aimed at helping children learn how to use various media and work around a theme to create their own stuff. The kids also have music and dancing time. The children get a fair balance of outdoor free-play, indoor free-play, and teacher directed activities. There's a fair amount of imaginative play involved. While the curriculum is not rigorously academic (i.e. your child will not learn to write all the letters of the alphabet in week 1 of school as a 2-or-3-year-old), there is a focus on cultivating scientific thinking and curiosity, and they are equipping the kids with skills necessary to excel at Math. It's a child-led Reggio Emilio school. They make sure social skills are incorporated into learning experiences. Last month, for instance, the kids built an airplane for the class to sit in and took turns "flying" the plane. They also hosted their own market with fake money and products, and took turns buying and selling goods and returning change to customers. They have been building habitats for the African grassland animals they learned about. They have been measuring object sizes and lengths. There is art incorporated into their Science lessons. Among other social skills, the kids also clean-up after meals, wiping down the tables and sweeping up crumbs. They fold away their bedding and put it away after nap time. My daughter has come home so proud and confident that she can help around the home and contribute these things. The teacher also has conversations with the kids during lunch, which is so crucial - to be able to listen, and take turns speaking at dinner. The snacks provided are nutritious, diverse, and not junk food (apricots, cheese, turkey, crackers, fruit, a variety of vegetables and hummus, etc.). I love that they have an app that the teacher uses to provide periodic information about what the kids ate, how long they napped, and activities they did. They also upload pictures and videos. The teacher fills in updates when the kids are asleep or during post-meal cleanup. So while the kids are awake, they have her complete attention. The updates are helpful, because as working parents, we know if our child hasn't eaten or we know if a nap wasn't taken, and can accordingly provision for it. It's also reassuring to check in on my kid when I am on my lunch break. The drop-off and pickup timings are very generous. We can have afford to have a slightly late day at work without having to stress about pickup. The school has far fewer days off than most of the other local schools - so I don't have to worry about arranging childcare for non-school days. Given the small class sizes, trained teachers, the Reggio Emilio approach and curriculum, convenient hours, limited holidays, and individualized attention, this preschool provides full value to its students and parents. We had come here after having our older child at a wonderful school that set the bar really high. And we love the Second Avenues Preschool just as much, if not more. Thank you for providing such a wonderful space where our child feels loved and accepted, and where she has been able to flourish and thrive. You are wonderful.

Since hiring a new Director (Lacey) the turnover seems high and the teachers being hired appear to be unqualified and incapable of handling the amount of children in their classes. A couple months ago my husband and I were informed that our child was hitting and spitting in class- my kids teacher and Lacey the Director stated that this behavior had been going on for an ENTIRE YEAR without the daycare informing us- a complete lack of professionalism and communication. Needless to say, we all decided that it was best to part ways. This was a horrible experience to say the least.

From the start, his first-grade teacher was negative and unwelcoming, and we felt he was unfairly targeted. The final straw was when he was accused of "choking" another child during a playground game. The other student and his parent confirmed that no choking happened, yet Principal Megan Randazzo pressured my son to admit it and ignored the truth. She kept slamming her hands on the table.Without any real investigation, she expelled our first grader. This is not the compassionate or fair environment one would expect from a Catholic school. Since transferring to Christian school, he is thriving and super happy. Parents, please think twice before enrolling your child at MCS. Many families, including ours, have felt their children were targeted rather than supported. Very disappointed.

Both Principal Douglas and Principal Randazzo genuinely care about each and every student -- not just academically, but personally. They take the time to know each child and ensure they feel valued and supported. Dr. Kristen Fuoco is incredible with helping students navigate any challenges they may face. Her compassion and dedication make such a difference in the lives of the children. My son, who transitioned from a very large charter school, has been welcomed with open arms. The staff and faculty have helped him recognize his individual strengths and encouraged him toward success and confidence. Mr. Sparks is an unsung hero who ensures everything on campus runs smoothly -- from maintenance and transportation to security and more. I always know my child is safe at school thanks to the school's thorough background checks and safety training for all personnel. The commitment to a secure and nurturing environment gives parents tremendous peace of mind. The Madeleine Choir School also offers an incredible array of after-school programs, clubs, and private music lessons. The choir program is truly outstanding -- the director's passion and excellence in teaching are unmatched and bring out the best in every student. Overall, I cannot imagine a better school experience. The Madeleine Choir School is a place where students are not just numbers -- they are known, valued, and inspired to reach their full potential. I wholeheartedly recommend this school to any family seeking an exceptional education within a supportive and uplifting community.

Their staff is loving and caring, the installations are great and clean, the management staff is also amazing and caring. I really appreciate their help with basically co-parenting with me. They send reports of whenever anything happens to your baby, call you when needed, communication was never a problem. I was super sad once I had to move towns and unfortunately couldn't keep on bringing my baby cause it did feel like an extra family, the teachers were so loving and that is something as a mom you really look for in the people with whom your child is gonna spend most of his time besides yourself. One of the nicest things was getting to see the crafts my baby would do very often at daycare, pictures they would print and decorate or do something nice for holidays and other special days. Love them and would use them again if I live closer again!

I have nothing but good things to say about this care center. Hands down the BEST daycare in town!…read moreI trust every single person that works there. My girls LOVE the teachers there and I personally love the staff. They are very selective in who they hire, which alone says alot. Angie, Ashley, & Amanda always update me on anything that goes on while my girls are in their care. They are Ginuwine, honest and caring and it shows. I'm VERY picky when it comes to who watches my babies and these ladies make me feel really comfortable which is a MUST! They go by the book and then some. I love how organized and clean they are, & the communication is suburb. I do "Pop ups" and randomly sneak in to see how things are going in the classroom when the parents are "unexpected" and I can honestly say I've never been disappointed. I go by people's vibes and I can tell if someone is Ginuwine or not. These women are very Ginuwine and honest. If an incident occurred with your child, they let you know exactly what happened, how it happened, What time it happened and what they did to comfort your child. The staff is very well trained and definitely hand picked. The owner and managers all have kids and they all go there which is a really good sign. The staff have been there for years, they have well balanced meals, excellent learning activities, and well put together daily schedules. Courtney has been there for 20 years and she is the sweetest lady ever, Jaime knows everything about every child and gives these kids a lot of one on one attention. Summer is a gorgeous young lady that was born to care for young kids, she's super mature. Hailey has patience like no one I know, I witnessed it first hand at the kids Christmas performance (which was amazing btw). Jasmine is such a sweetheart, her and my daughter share a special bond, its adorable. Lora was my daughters previous teacher and she LOVES her, she calls her "Flora" so now I call her flora whenever I see her. I will never leave this place nor will I ever find a daycare that will care for my babies the way this daycare does. 1 million golden stars to the owner and Managers that make this daycare the way it is, I wouldn't change a thing about it. P.S. I don't remember all the names of the staff, the ones mentioned are the ones that stand out to me from my girls experience.

Going up and down Parley's canyon was the highlight of my road experience- lots going on and so many other drivers to maneuver around. I better understood the importance of speed/ brake management.
