School Reviews
5 3/21/2025
Penfield Village Nursery School was the best for my children! They both attended from ages 3-4 and had a fantastic experience. The parent experience was excellent as well, as parents were invited in for a number of events and volunteer opportunities throughout the year. I liked that the cost was less than Montessori as well. The teachers are so dedicated and kind. You can tell they really love their students. Any time I had a concern, I could email them, and they'd respond quickly with a solution. I feel that they really took the time to get to know my children and their "quirks." My kids were well prepared for kindergarten after their experiences at PVNS.
