After doing extensive research in the area for preschool curriculums Doodlebugz has far more to offer. They pull professionals in to educate the kids with music lessons, cooking classes, top notch learning and great extra activities like yoga, gymnastics and soccer. It is privately owned by someone who has kids which is why I believe they truly do care...as for the baby room as well as all the other room stages. Your baby/toddler will never be better taken care of :) I would recommend Doodlebugz to everyone!

Perfect teacher to student ratios, diverse learning/play areas, plenty of outdoor time, fantastic and healthy lunch and snacks created by two full time chefs are some of the ways that The Alphabet Academy outshine all others. Ms. Jamie and Ms. Rachel are the best! If you are able to enroll your child, don't hesitate. You will be happy you did.

My daughter has been attending Alphabet Academy for two years now, first full-time and now…read morepart-time. We have been in the "toddlers" and "twos" rooms so far. My family has been very happy with our choice in childcare. The teachers and administrators really care about the kids and provide an environment that is not only safe and warm but creative and challenging. We love the emphasis on fresh, natural foods (all food is provided/included, which is SO convenient) and outdoor play. They also do a very cool "Summer camp" program where the kids have outdoor/water play all morning every day, and the preschool/pre-K kids have several field trips. There are also occasional "bonus" events such as an end-of-summer family party and Christmas-time pajama party for the kids. I will be honest, it's not cheap, but as with all things you get what you pay for!

My wife and I LOVE Surreybrook School; our son goes there. The staff is very friendly and seem to…read morelove their jobs. They always seem to be doing something fun with the kids, and seem to put money back into the school to upgrade facilities and activities. They are a little on the high side in the area for tuition, but you definitely get your money's worth. They are the only school that I know of that teaches Spanish, Chinese, yoga, etc. Our son LOVES going to school, so the money is definitely worth it.

Surreybrook is an amazing place for children and families. My son has been at Surreybrook for 2…read moreyears now and I have never had a negative experience. He started at 15 months old. They make sure your children are safe, educated, and have fun. The staff at Surreybrook love what they do and they are like family to my child. I am so grateful to have found Surreybrook. Compared to other daycare/preschools in the community, Surreybrook is by far the best! I have an older, school age child who tried 3 different school in the community and none of them came close to the quality childcare & education Surreybrook offers.

We had our little ones at Alphabet-- both our son and our daughter-- for three years, and I will…read moreprobably spend the rest of their schooling years missing it. It was a truly magical experience. It was so magical, in fact, that I considered commuting to DC from New Haven so that I wouldn't have to take the kids out. The teachers are beyond wonderful, and deeply committed to fostering a love of learning through play. They also had the most epic healthy, home cooked food program. The kids play outside in all weather and really learn to embrace nature, and the teachers cater the programming to their curiosities and interests (we had a whole segment on bats :). All in all, this was a truly formative experience and we miss our Alphabet friends so much!

We felt so lucky to be part of this wonderful community! Not only is the school beautiful, well…read morelit, and inviting, but my kids loved working with the nature based materials. All three of my children are so different, but the teachers were so amazing at understanding and working with their different personalities and learning styles. I loved that the director was always visible and available, but clearly knew each child in the school. They all loved the outdoor space, we could never get them to leave! As busy working parents, it was such a bonus to have healthy and tasty chef made meals and snacks from their gourmet kitchen! And to know my kids ate it and enjoyed it! The kids stayed through kindergarten and that was the best decision we made. I feel so thankful for our time there and for our alphabet family!

I would highly recommend seeing this place for yourself. Another person commented their child was…read morealways sick. Well, at that age group it is highly likely at ANY preschool that your child WILL get sick because preschoolers are just germy, let's face the facts. Plus, yes, it's in a basement, so if a parent drops their child off sick then again, yes, it will be likely that another child will get sick. Now, besides that this place has a number of amazing teachers and assistant teachers who are very supportive of the children and families that they serve. They have an amazing parent board and they have quite possibly the BEST supportive community I've ever seen between the staff, parents, and families. And the children learn A LOT through through play and natural environments. I have worked there and it was THE BEST preschool that I've worked at for both the staff and children's experiences. Plus, the fact that many of the teachers that work there have been there for YEARS which tells you even the staff loves their jobs and working with your children.

The classrooms are dated and could use some through cleaning. Not able to say I recommend. My suggestion is to do your research and look elsewhere. Just didn't work for me .

There is really nothing good to say about this daycare center except that the site Director and…read moresome of the teachers were nice. Our child was enrolled for less than a month and numerous incidents occurred which ultimately led us to remove our child. There were serious health code violations, a continuous turnover of the teachers, situations where children were basically ignored, and more. Unfortunately, we experienced numerous unsanitary and unsafe conditions for children. And since there was never the same teacher week after week, you would never know what to expect when you walked in. If you have a serious incident and wish to escalate it to the owner, be prepared to be pushed off. She does not feel like she needs to be involved in situations that do not directly involve her; even though she is the owner of the company. She explicitly stated this to us when we finally were able to meet with her. She is extremely unprofessional, unwelcoming, unwilling to take responsibility for incidents occurring in her centers, and downright rude. Do yourself a favor and do not send your children here.
