My daughter spent 3 years at Greenhouse, preschool through kindergarten. She thrived there.
The teachers were all great. They clearly paired lead teachers with assistant teachers with their strengths in mind. There's always a nurturing one to help with difficult morning departure.
When I''d pickup my daughter she was often excited to show me a work, so we''d sit and do one together for a few minutes before going home.
