Everyone at this school is wonderful. The teachers are loving and involved and have been so warm with both our son and daughter. Big HUGE shoutout to Miss Jasmine, we love you! Our 3 very soon to be 4 year old has such a special relationship with Miss Jasmin, they call each other sister and Miss Jasmine always made mornings where my daughter was having separation anxiety so much better for both me and my little one. Our daughter would come home with beautiful plaits and just amazing hairstyles that everyone would remark on done by her sister Miss Jasmine. Our son has since graduated but he loved this school and his amazing teachers. He learned that school was a place to look forward to at Mary Alice and that is a gift that we can't express how gratitude for. Miss Lily the principal is absolutely lovely, she completely cares and you can feel it. That's really the case with everyone at this school. Miss Marissa is so fun, I want to be in her class! Miss Yara is so sweet and wonderful and was a favorite of our sons. He would always come home talking about how nice she was or some sweet story about his teachers and classmates. I remember once we drove by the school at closing time after having picked the kids up earlier in the day and our son saw Miss Yara walking to her car and reacted like he'd just seen a super hero/A list celebrity walking on the street. OH MY GOSH!! Miss Yara! Did you see Ms. Yara! Mr. Patty is sweet with the kids and funny and such a great addition to the classroom. It's really just an excellent place and a wonderful experience being able to drop your children off and feel completely confident that they're receiving top notch care and education.

We love the discovery preschool at the Mary Alice O’Connor Center. Our teachers and all the staff are phenomenal and so caring and supportive and directive. Our son loves it there!

I literally can't speak highly enough of MAOC. They are LITERAL life savers. I was struggling with some major Post Party Depression, and hadn't been able to work for the first 8 months of baby's life, when I got the call that there was a spot open at MAOC. After 8 months of being Baby's main caregiver -- it was hard to imagine I'd feel comfortable letting ANYONE else care for him, but... he's in AMAZING hands at MAOC. They set the bar, then jump over it each and every day. There's a long wait list for a reason, and we are so so so thrilled we are here. Every. Single. Day.
