Our kids adore the…read moreteaching staff and are genuinely excited to see them every morning, often running up to give them hugs and tell them about their weekends when entering the class. All the teachers are incredibly attentive, kind and engaging in how they manage the class and have shown great care with our kids. The admin staff led, Angela and Natalie, have been so accommodating, organized and compassionate to our needs, leaving us with great confidence in dropping off our kids every morning. Whether it's the winter art show, ongoing spanish classes, or special visits from wildlife educators, they consistently put out an incredibly varied curriculum that balances education and creativity, allowing the class to experience so many sides of life in a way that promotes curiosity and fun. Wonderspring as a whole is a very warm, safe, inspired and welcoming environment and cannot I recommend them enough!

We have gone through 4 daycares/preschools and this is by far the best! As the previous reviewer said, our morning starts with a smile saying hello to each other. Families naturally become friends and happily help each other. My son enjoys 5 day pre-K class so much that he doesn't want to go home when I pick him up. (His only complaint is that the school isn't open on the weekend :p) He's learned reading/writing alphabets & numbers, songs, and soccer among others. Teachers are so caring and welcoming, and children learn how to be kind to each other in this warm and friendly environment. We are blessed to have such an amazing preschool in our local neighborhood, and hope many families experience what we've experienced. FYI: Tuition is very affordable, and you will be surprised by quality care you & your children receive. Communication with the school/teachers is very easy through the Brightwheel app.

Miss Kereba is amazing! She's extremely nurturing, attentive, and detailed. I looked all over…read moreGermantown, Mt. Airy and surrounding areas for a place to send my 2.5 year old for the summer and she was by far the best bang for your buck. The highlights of why we chose her place over others: Communication- She keeps me up to date with every thing my daughter does from games, to meals to potty time. She even has an online portal and app that she uses to send you a daily report at the end of each day!!! Age appropriate for little ones- She has many educational toys and games for babies and toddlers. Perviously my daughter was going to a summer camp that seemed to miss the mark on understanding a child's needs at this important stage. Meals- she provides meals which definitely helps with cutting costs at home and helps me save time. Compassion & Care - you can tell she truly loves children and cares for their well being and mental development. Price- The quality of child care that she offers far exceeds her prices point.

Sending my three year old to Kereba's Kids Care was one of the best decisions I've even made!…read moreKereba really engages the kids by keeping their minds and bodies active. I love receiving the art projects my toddler brings home! Kereba also keeps parents in the loop through an app which details the child's activities for the day. My toddler has blossomed since she started at the daycare. She uses the potty at school, has new friends and her vocabulary is improving. I wish I would've sent my toddler to Kereba's Kids Care sooner!

The teachers are wonderful and the leaders of the school are also great. I love that they value and teach kindness and inclusion. They have been great about communicating during COVID and I feel comfortable with their protocols. Their curriculum is engaging and I love hearing the songs my daughters have learned each week. My older daughter has Spanish as well and even learned to swim over the summer. I feel at ease knowing my kids are happy and well-cared for there.

Many of the teachers have been there for decades (a family member went to BCSYC 20 years ago and had three of the same teachers our kids have today). The teaching staff is quite diverse, as are the families. We have been impressed with their approach to COVID safety, including clear and prompt communication with families. The Spanish and music lessons have been a big hit, and our older child loved the swimming lessons last summer. It's an excellent program.

My oldest has been here almost 3 years and my 2nd almost 1 year, both African American. As a single mother dropping my children off has been one less worry. Even during interviewing for better opportunities and running late on public transportation sending messages through their app provided made me feel at ease. Always getting a response and a simple take your time or no rush. When picking up my children its always hard to get them to leave. As the school is not only a classroom setting but have individual spaces for free play, a library, room for movies and basically an indoor gym. I like their concept here because if my children need a couple minutes to calm their energy the teachers allow for them to go to a more intimate space to still learn but also gather themselves. When I arrive at the school the owner or teacher at the time is always graceful in how they communicate the day. I do appreciate this very much here at the school. My kids always want to go back. Even out of school and we are close by they mention their school. Oh! They provide detailed reports on your child's progress and future planning for continued success as well. All teachers are hands on. Even if a teacher works with their individual group he/she will step in to assist. Its good to see that because our children are not perfect everyday. I like to see how the teachers will respond if I am not around. I like their style here. If you want your kids busy, doing hands on projects then you are at the right place. Holiday season is my favorite. The hold a lot of potlucks where I have friended many other parents. A few who are my good friends now. We do play dates out of school. Another favorite is when I get to buy my kids art. Even if all i have is a quarter(you get the point) just a fun activity. Also bringing in guest speakers, local field trips. They are creative in getting everyone involved. If you are a introverted parent that may change. You will find yourself really opening up. Highly recommend! Great location, Diverse, Affordable, caring!

My husband and I (and our daughter) are so grateful for this school. The administrators, staff, and…read moreteachers are all excellent. Not only are the teachers highly trained, qualified, career educators; every staff and administrative member here seems highly qualified and committed to creating a positive, educational environment. The curriculum and resources are wonderful, and the space (particularly the renovated rooms) beautiful. They offer flexible schedules with many different options for working parents or those that just want their child to benefit from the Montessori mornings. We really appreciate the fact that they foster, teach, practice, and celebrate diversity. One of our favorite events was the school's International Dinner. The outdoor space is great, and they have art, tumble tots, and music programs weekly, special events for the kids throughout the year (such as animal visits, ballet shows, music performances), in addition to the Montessori program and the after-care options (which features a lot of creative play, cooking, and play spaces that are updated with new themes monthly). I strongly believe that any childcare setting should make you feel happy whenever you walk in- and that is the case for us. I love walking in to Bala House. To be honest, I was actually very worried and unsure about starting my daughter in a Montessori school. I had never had this experience and from the outside the teaching model seemed a little cold and isolating. Also, my daughter has a ton of energy and I was worried she'd be too wild to sit nicely on a little mat "doing her work." And I was worried about the class size- 24 kids seemed like a lot. But, I was surprised to find that despite being on the young end, she sits and focuses on her projects. She seems to enjoy the opportunity to choose activities for herself, and she gets tons of interactions with other kids, in a mixed-age setting (she loves the older kids!) She's made a ton of friends and is learning so much- socially, emotionally, and academically. And- many days she begs me for more time at pick-up, which I take as the most important stamp of approval ;) I also have to note what a great experience this has been for us as parents, to have this community. When we moved here from out of state last summer, not only did my daughter quickly, happily, and easily transition into the summer camp program (a great way to transition in, by the way- although they also have "phasing in" days for new students to help with this process) - but we also had an instant network. It was easy to make friends through the school's many events and parent's association. It is a community I'm enormously grateful for. Finally, I have to give a shout out to Miss Adiya. We love you! :-)

Do not recommend this place for first time daycare kids…read more Neither the teachers nor the director is prepared to handle new kids. Will let the kid cry it out in their chair starting from Day 1. No compassion showed towards kids, nor the ability to teach kids. They can only handle daycare ready kids.

Also, have backup child care, since the school can remove the child with no notice whatsoever.

Can't say enough about the great care that Miss Alice, Miss Katie and the team provided for my kids. Especially through the pandemic creating a safe, clean and fun environment for all. Weekly themes and activities. Don't think they promote as much as they do for the kids such as bringing in external music, drama and sports programs, holiday shows, family days, and summers filled with daily fun activities including Monday guests like petting zoos, magicians, ice cream and water ice trucks etc, sports days, fun house/water slides and field trips to places like the zoo, aquarium, legoland and so much more. Also a great community of families that attend too. Check out their FB page to get a glimpse of some of the activities and energy. If you're in the Oaks area, they have a sister school that is also great and has been around for some time! We spent a summer there prior to WELC's opening!
