Schools in Cheshire, CT

“My son has been enrolled in Cheshire Kinder Care for over a year. I am beyond pleased with our experience. My son has learned to play well with other children, respect boundaries and to name and express his emotions. His teachers help guide him through toddler problem behaviors and give me support and advice when I'm unsure how to handle a situation. The center's calendar is always full with special events and themed days. They offer an atmosphere for creative, sensory, interpersonal, knowledge and motor skill development.”

“OTR was an amazing experience for my kids. The teachers made each day a fun one, as well as full of learning.We chose OTR because we had heard there was a strong pre-K program and there was also after-care for our school-age child.The pre-K program was very comprehensive. Ms. Tammy made learning fun, and had a structure to the day and week that made it easy to follow and support at home. We were always kept aware of any activities well in advance and could always ask questions.For school age, the bus picked up right from the center, so no difficulties whether it was a full or half day. They were open on school close days (except the major holidays). It met our family needs and my school age kid could get assistance with homework when needed.When COVID-19 hit, OTR stayed open. Staff worked with families to meet fears and concerns; we were kept aware of changes and protocols. Though my school age child stayed home to do remote learning, my pre-schooler continued to attend. Even with masks, staff remained cheerful, supportive, and came up with creative activities. They normalized checking temperatures in morning, and asked about symptoms and trips without making it seem like the same questions were being asked each day.They found a way to do a modified graduation ceremony and included my school ager, who had not attended in 3 months, in their farewell ceremony for the year.OTR came across as a family and we were definitely members.It is a great facility and my children thrived there!”
