The director Fernanda and my son's teachers have always been approachable and I have never felt as though I didnt have a voice. I have seen a great improvement in my son's learning skills and he is always happy to be at the daycare. If you're considering childcare please consider enrolling your littles here. They will be well cared for and nurtured and loved.

My daughter attended since she was 15 months old (22 months now but we will be moving soon), this…read morewas her first daycare experience. I was drawn to this place due to the Spanish immersion and while I cannot say she has picked up much Spanish (yet) her vocabulary has exploded tremendously since being there. This is a family-run business with a range of caregivers younger, middle aged, and older. I have had nothing but good encounters with each of them and what stands out is that all of them can tell me about my child. This lets me know that the ratio of caregivers to child is small enough and/or that communication is good between employees. While this is not a state-of-the-art facility, the director takes the time to communicate with parents about the child, going as far as texting me pictures on occasion. The one time my daughter fell off a toy slide, she communicated and texted a picture of that immediately (it was nothing really). In other words, I feel like the employees care and my child is safe. I have not been inside much due to COVID-19 restrictions but on occasion I have been invited in to observe my daughter's classroom. Again, this is not a fancy place but it is up to standards and clean. I will say, it is up to the parent to inquire about the child's day as they don't really volunteer a lot of information if not prompted. I don't think is necessarily lack of transparency they just don't have a protocol for daily reporting. In their defense any major concerns are disclosed promptly (i.e. child threw up, has a diaper rash, is low on diapers, etc.). Its more the little things they don't offer unless you ask (how did they nap? Did they eat well? what was their mood? etc.). Another note is that there have been times I am returned the wrong bedding or clothing to wash over the weekend, so clearly label your child's belongings. I don't see a reason to make a big stink about this as eventually, everything is returned and with a sizable daycare these things seem inevitable to me, I only mention them because I know some parents are very particular. Overall I think they deserve 5 stars if you are not picky about the small things and are mostly concerned with safety, transparency, and staff who genuinely care about your child.

The teachers are AMAZING and my daughter loves them. They work really hard to ensure my child is taken care of and learning everything she needs to start kinder. Her class size is small which is nice because I know the teachers can really focus their attention on my child without getting overwhelmed by a large class size. NWS also offers after school care for older kids, summer camps and seasonal camps when public school is not in session. We love NWS!!

My kids have done the Spanish immersion summer camp, and I have done one on one classes here. Everyone is incredibly nice and helpful. It really feels like a family, which I think is very important in learning a language - you have to feel comfortable speaking and listening for it to stick, and that's something NWS is very good at.

I've been researching online and in-person foreign language learning for the past few months with…read morethe intention of starting by June this year. The first time I sent an inquiry, I got a brief response and an attached enrollment form. I sent a "reply all" follow-up email with a few more questions about the classes and so far, weeks later, out of all the recipients on that email, NO ONE has replied. Nobody. Here I am, wanting to learn, willing to pay (SEFLA is not cheap) and no one wants to answer or take my money! So, although I haven't actually attended any classes there, I don't see this behavior as being very professional, and I can't imagine them being any better if I were to hire them to teach me. In the meantime, I've found another language school in another state that gets great reviews for teaching languages virtually AND is cheaper.

One of the boys told our handicapped 4 year old "stupid cripple" get out of the way! Very shocked at a supposed "leading school."
