“I spent a peaceful morning exploring the trails here and it was exactly the breath of fresh air I needed. The sanctuary is incredibly well-preserved, with a great variety of habitats from open meadows to deep woodlands. I followed the boardwalk through the wetlands and was able to spot several different types of hawks and songbirds—the bird-watching opportunities are truly fantastic. The trails are clearly marked and easy to navigate, making it a great spot for a casual hike or a nature walk. I also stopped by the visitor center, which had some really interesting educational exhibits about the local ecosystem. It’s a quiet, scenic escape that feels miles away from the hustle and bustle, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys being outdoors and spotting local wildlife.”

I definitely plan to take another class.”

“Pat-A-Cake Preschool is truly the best daycare and childcare center we could have ever hoped for. From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt an overwhelming sense of warmth and care. The teachers are not only professional and attentive—they are genuinely loving individuals who treat our child as if she were one of their own.

Every day, our daughter is greeted with smiles, hugs, and a nurturing environment that fosters both learning and emotional growth. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that each child feels safe, valued, and supported. It’s clear that they take pride in creating a space where children thrive.

We’ve seen incredible development in our child since she started at Pat-A-Cake, and we attribute so much of that to the dedication and compassion of the teachers. Their ability to connect with each child on a personal level is nothing short of remarkable.
If you’re looking for a preschool where your child will be loved, encouraged, and inspired every single day, Pat-A-Cake is the place.”

“This is a review specifically for the Preschool. We're been sending our three year old twins to the preschool at the YMCA in Greenwich and couldn't be happier. The head teacher Dina is amazing and our kids absolutely love them, as are the other teachers including Molly. The follow the same curriculum the Greenwich schools, and have a tumble room, dance classes, and they have swim lessons once a week. The staff love our kids, and they love them. We honestly couldn't be happier.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Day Care Center of New Canaan. My almost 4-year-old has been there for the past year, and the transformation I’ve seen in him is nothing short of incredible—truly night and day.

When he started, he was struggling with significant behavioral challenges that I’m certain would have caused others to give up. But they never did. Not once. Instead, they met him with patience, understanding, and unwavering support every single day.

The director, Ms. Barbara, and my son’s head teacher, Ms. Melinda, have truly changed my son’s life. The care, dedication, and heart they pour into their work is beyond anything I could have hoped for. Because of them, he is more confident, more regulated, and so much happier.

Every single teacher at Day Care Center of New Canaan has been kind, compassionate, and truly invested in the children. It doesn’t feel like just a preschool—it is a genuine partnership in raising and supporting my child, and that means everything to me.

I am endlessly grateful and cannot recommend this school highly enough. It has made a profound difference in both my son’s life and mine.”

“Food Rescue US is an AMAZING non-profit service for the poor of MiamiDade County. They faithfully deliver to a number of locations like Miami Rescue Mission, Camillus House, Royalton, Amistad, etc. No one should be eating out of filthy dumpsters or trash cans in MiamiDade County. Orlando or Jacksonville maybe, but not MiamiDade County. The MRM meals are excellent. One Friday I had steak and Mac N Cheese that was better than the Whole Foods hot bar. Camillus House has real chefs like Chef OJ and feed the homeless better than at home.

At the Royalton, Mrs. Hernandez is a faithful angel delivering quality food from Trader Joes or Whole Foods like lemons, limes, pineapple, kale, onions, strawberries, eggs, oat milk, cheese, chicken, steak, salmon, to nourish those battling late stage cancer, kidney dialysis, diabetes, etc.

The Food Rescue US leadership (including Ms. Ellen and Miss Santacaterina are wonderful), and this is why MiamiDade County under Mayor Suarez and Mayor Cava lead Florida in terms of ending chronic homelessness so that residents can become productive members of this nation. Berkeley, CA and Atlanta, GA and Durham, NC please take note.

Thank you!”

“Today we attended their egg hunt event ($15 donation) and as a first-time visitor, I was pleasantly surprised by the visitor center and all that the nature center seems to offer. The egg hunt started a little delayed but it's a lot of work to fill those eggs for so many kids. What I appreciated was that they had a smaller grove area for kids younger than 4, my son was so happy with collecting his eggs. The prizes in each were great! They also had arts and crafts tables while we waited. Thank you for a lovely event!”

“Moldtec has found that the BCW is more than a business networking group. The BCW is dynamic and offers a treasure trove of events, meetings, seminar's and more. Our group trip to Albany is special as we not only received a fantastic tour of our state capital building but also advocated for small businesses and practices. I highly recommend anyone conducting business in the Westchester County area to come to an event and meet some amazing and talented people.”

“The Best Gym in Darien & Fairfield County.

One can experience the community vibe and sense of belonging at YMCA Darien.
The Staff is very kind, warm and welcoming — especially “Cody”, whose friendly presence makes members feel genuinely valued, && “Augusta” at the front desk, whose thoughtful good mornings and good evenings always make a difference.

The facility is well maintained, and it is a great place for fitness, families, and the local community. Highly recommended !”
