“I dont know where to start honestly. I feel at home my daughter feels at home. Toddler G room has helped our family in many ways such as breast weaning and socializing with others her age. They communicate so well and the app is God Sent. Everything is easy access and the staff are amazing. Our classroom has truly been a blessing and were so glad to have chosen this location and so thankful for the staff. Not to mention ITS SUPER CLEAN AND BRIGHT AND LOVING! I never hear babies screaming uncontrollably i never smell and foul smells and the food?? lets just wrap this up by saying I have inquired for myself for a spot on toddler G room”

“This center has been a pretty good fit for my children I have no complaints. The teachers do their best everyday to show up for the children. Thank you for all that you do for my girls❤️”

“Open spaces for the kiddos is what caught our eye’! Very clean and they provide all snacks AND meals! The staff are loving and professional! Ms. Ericka is such a gem and we can’t over explain how sweet this little gem of a daycare is. They may be nationally owned, but they are filled with local staff, and kiddos who are getting a quality education from as little as age 0! NAYEC accreditation is what sealed the deal for us. And our twin 2 year olds have loved their Ms. Puja! KinderCare Rocky Hill gets a 10 out of 5 from this family!”

“I went here for four dance recitals. It's a very nice place and the stage was a great size to accommodate all the dance numbers . I'm glad the studio had the recitals at this location ?”

“The teachers are patient, caring, attentive, and truly passionate about what they do. It’s clear they genuinely love the children and work hard to create a safe, fun, and educational environment every day. We’ve seen so much growth, learning, and happiness since being part of this classroom.

Sue and Paige go above and beyond and has created such a positive atmosphere for both the children and parents. Communication is always great, and it means so much knowing our child is cared for by people we trust completely.

We are so thankful for everyone in the Toddler 1 classroom and highly recommend The Learning Experience South Windsor to any family looking for quality childcare!

Shoutout to the TODDLER 1 teachers !!! My daughter loves you!!!”

“We couldn’t be happier with our infant granddaughter’s daycare. The facility itself is absolutely beautiful and impeccably clean, which gave us peace of mind right away. What truly sets this place apart, though, is the staff—they are genuinely top-notch. It’s clear they care deeply about the children and consistently go above and beyond in everything they do.
The daycare is incredibly well organized and thoughtfully run, with great communication and attention to detail. They also plan so many fun events throughout the year that bring families together, which really adds to the sense of community.
Even at the infant level, there is a meaningful curriculum in place to support early development, which we truly appreciate. It’s comforting to know she’s not only being cared for, but also learning and growing every day.
We are so happy our daughter chose this daycare and feel confident our granddaughter is in the best hands. We’re excited to watch her continue to grow as part of their wonderful “family.””

“TLE south Windsor has welcomed my family and I like no other! I have an infant in the program and would definitely recommend new families! all the staff is professional and warm even if your child is not in their class”

“We have had two children attend Grammys Garden in South Windsor. They provide a nurturing and educational environment that does an excellent job preparing little ones for Kindergarten. The teachers are friendly, attentive and you can tell the kids build such beautiful bonds with them and the other children. They plan special events for the children and families around the holidays and really strive to provide a family friendly environment for everyone. I love following along with my child’s day on the app they use and feel like I get to see all the milestones big and small through the photos they share daily. I would highly recommend Grammys to anyone seeking fantastic childcare for their little ones. Thanks for all you do!”

“I moved my son from the early learning experience due to the lack of communication, staff, professionalism, and care for my son. I changed him to the Goddard and it was the best decision I ever made. The owner was always there and not hard to reach at all. The teachers and staff were all amazing it made going to work and leaving my son that much more comforting and assuring knowing that he would be in great hands. If I ever had another child I would bring my child there no questions asked. I highly recommend.”

“Today was Aryan’s last day at the center. We are very pleased with how he was taken care of. He loves to go and enjoys being at the center. Thanks so much for making his time wonderful.”

“The curriculum is awesome and my child’s teachers make a lot of effort to be creative, educational and exciting for the children. I appreciate the dedication and the genuine love they have for teaching children and keeping them safe”

“We are so thankful for our Goddard Village! It is abundantly clear that our little one is happy, safe, and loved each and every day. We highly recommend Goddard Glastonbury!”

“My son attended RC for Pre-K 3 and PK4. I have nothing but love and appreciation for Rainbow Center. It truly is a special place. The perfect blend of a home daycare setting with teachers who specialize in educating and caring for kiddos. The teachers at RC have been there for years, with little turnover - that says a lot! I also love that kids are exposed to animals as the center has cats, Guinea pigs, fish, birds and more! The days are structured and it is a perfect balance of kids getting to be kids while also learning and understanding routine.”

“I am 10 yrs old and I've been here since Pre-K and this school really is the best school I could ask for and the teachers over there are really kind and Respectful, Responsible and safe. (Love this school)”

“Choosing TLE Newington was the best decision for my family. I rave about it often to other parents who are struggling with choosing a center! We’re seeing so much growth in our child’s social and academic skills since starting. The administration team is wonderful, and the whole center feels like a family. Thank you, TLE!”

“My son has been attending Bright Horizons since he was in the toddler program at 2 years old. He is now 3.5 and has Ms. Caterina in Preschool! I have never felt so supported as a parent and know that when I drop him off each day that he is with people who truly love him and care about his well being and education. We have struggled with some behaviors such as hyperactivity and impulse control and the way the teachers and educational coordinator have partnered with me to help him has been extraordinary. I have seen so much growth in him over the past year, and I credit a lot of that to the amazing team he has at school. We started off at another local center when my son was 1, and transferring to Bright Horizons at Village Place was the best decision I ever made. Thank you to everyone on the BH team!!”

“We joined the Quaker Lane family this school year for their 3 day program. I can't say enough good things about this program and the wonderful families we have met. We are honestly sad that our son only has one year here before Kindergarten. They are caring and communicative, I really feel like my son is learning and having fun. There are lots of little events and fundraisers you can get involved in but no pressure to do so if you don't have the time. If you are looking for a pre school or new to the area and realizing how many there are - Quaker Lane really stands out!”

“My daughter attended all six weeks of camp this summer and loved every minute of it! The variety of programs and fantastic staff made this one of her all time favorite camps. The lunches were also delicious. She made some great new friends and learned a lot of new things. We will be back, thank you to Sheri and all of the staff at camp KO!”

“We have had the absolute best experience at Bright Horizons.
The director, staff, teachers are amazing all around.
Thank you to everyone! We will miss you so much once our daughter starts kindergarten!”

“SWCDC is a wonderful learning program for toddlers and preschoolers. All the children get the individual attention they need and the teachers focus greatly on each child's independence. They have beautiful outdoor playgrounds and the kids get to grow food outside in Nature's Classroom! This is a spectacular place for all pre-k kiddos! My twins couldn't be happier!”

“This program should only have 5-stars review! The 1 star review from years ago is incredbly misleading to a family looking into this program. This program is the BEST KEPT SECRET in Newington. The teachers are incredible and the sense of community is something so special.

We joined this program without knowing what to expect, and based off of incredible facebook reviews from moms and wow was it amazing. The program surpassed what we were told.

My son goes 3-half days a week and this is our experience:

There is a curricula-based lesson daily, craft to follow, centers, story time, free play, community events like singing for the tree lighting and a firetruck visit, valentines day prom/party and a field trip, among more.

Jessica the coordinator, Ms. Janet/Christina/Milli have created a forever love for school for my 3 year old which I am incredibly grateful for.

The app with daily photos and direct communication brings ease to parents that need it. The flexible pickup and drop off hours takes a weight off of parents who may be running late because of other younger siblings at home.

My only regret was not being able to send him 5 full days a week with what they get out of this program. I am so grateful for this program and cannot wait for my next 2 to attend.

IF YOUR CHILD ATTENDED THIS PROGRAM PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW!!”

“We started our son at kiddie academy when he was 12 weeks old and we have such an appreciation for this staff!! They’ve taken great care of him and we feel great knowing he is happy here. Staff has been very responsive and easy to communicate with. This place is by far the most flexible daycare we could find, to which we are extremely grateful. Special shoutout to Amanda the director, Ms. Caroline (best infant teacher ever), Ms. Lee, Ms. Bina, Ms. Sue, Ms. Natalie… and many others. Highly recommend!”

“All I can say is...WOW! I wish my parents sent me to Montessori when I was younger. I have my Master's Degree in Nursing Education which is a huge achievement for myself and my family. Seeing the curriculum today with Ms Jessica totally put everything into perspective for me. My perspective after curriculum night: Teaching children by theory like I was taught growing up is ok for some kids. But those who want to understand hands on go to Montessori. Montessori teaches kids with physical objects,hands on in addition to theory for a greater in depth understanding of the lessons. Watching the demonstration of the curriculum I was in awe of this specific way of teaching, and absolutely amazed with the methods taught as I know my daughter learns best with hands on Education.”
