My son attended Pre-K here and we had a great experience. I am amazed at how much he learned and how happy he was every day. The school environment was very supportive and nurturing. Not just from his immediate teachers, but also from the other teachers and staff members as well. They always greeted us with a smile and it set the tone for him to have an amazing day. Communication was excellent and they responded to all questions and requests promptly. The staff and student body were diverse. They offered a lot of extra events and activities allowing family/community involvement. Loved this school and would recommend it to anyone considering it.

My twins go to pre-K 4 and it`s the best decision ever to have them be a part of A Child`s Place!! I was nervous for them to start as any parent would but Ms. Sarah was so sweet and answered all the questions and concerns-. She made me feel so comfortable sending my kids there, The twin`s teachers are Ms. Emily and Ms. Martha and we love them!! Actually, everyone in that school is very sweet!! The twins never complain about going to school, they love it and that tells you a lot about the school, teachers, and staff!! I give A child`s Place 5 stars and MORE :) A very happy parent Angela A
