“We've been a family at NFCNS for 6 years now and all three of my kids have had a great experience. The teachers are so caring with their students and the director is very enthusiastic about learning and about children getting out and exploring nature. The parking lot is nice and big. The outdoor playground is super fun and I love how the school has an indoor gym for use when it's too cold or rainy to go outside. Plus the school is convenient to many local shopping centers which is helpful when trying to run kid-free errands during school time.”

“The first time I asked my almost 3-year-old son to imagine where he would go, if he could go absolutely ANYWHERE ("Like a castle or the moon!" I suggested), he responded: "School!" and then quickly added, "so I could see Miss Mary and Miss Salena and my friends."Our son's joy at being a part of this school is as great as my own joy at being a part of this community. There is so much trust, care and safety built into the environment created here, as well as a true commitment to diversity and inclusion. As a co-op, Families Together offers particularly special opportunities for parents to be a part of the community, interweaving our children's "home" and "school" spheres into a single supportive world for our kids.If you are looking for a place to nurture your growing child to learn important lessons through play and joy, create friendships, and learn how much fun it is to learn, you will be thrilled with Families Together. #earlychildhoodeducation #prekoptions”

“Truly a wonderful place for our kids to learn, play and grow. Warm, friendly atmosphere starts with the greeting and often hugs from Miss Nancy - our kids look forward to them. Miss Judy, Miss Jan and the teachers really get to know each child and make them feel special. The sing/dance programs are a highlight and it is amazing to see all the kids grow and mature over the years. It is a wonderful place in our community and we are so grateful to have a safe and fun place that our kids enjoy.”

“We are so grateful to have found Dreamers Childcare! We moved to the area when our son was 10mths old and were very nervous knowing a move meant changing daycares. Picking the right daycare is an important decision and our expectations were high. Dreamers has been our biggest blessing! We can't say enough wonderful things about the teachers, community, communication, and overall high caliber of caregiving. We're currently expecting our second child and are thrilled they'll be going to dreamers as well.Communication is great. We love the smaller, community feel. The teachers plan a wide range of enrichment activities that are age appropriate, fun, and work on your child's development. Plus, the food is made in-house by their chef and our friends are so jealous of what a great eater our son is.Most importantly, my child is in a wonderful environment where he feels loved and cared for. He enjoys going to daycare every day. I can't say enough about how fortunate we feel to have found Dreamers!”

“I had a relaxing time hosting my family and friends. Sarah made the event cheerful, personable, enjoyable, and tasty with homemade flavors. She is a congenial hostess and I knew she would take care of the details. My guests had fun picking out a hat. I definitely recommend Sarah to host your event.”

“We feel so fortunate to have found the little blue school! We moved from out of state and were seeking a warm, inclusive community for our family. Our oldest has thrived at RNS and loves engaging in daily outdoor play and environmental explorations. The teachers are deeply invested in the social and emotional development of each child. Learning is hands-on, inquiry-based, and so joy filled. Our oldest counts the number of sleeps left to return to school on weekends and vacations, and our youngest can't wait to join next year. We are very grateful to be a part of such a nurturing and grounded community.”

“I cannot say enough words to describe how amazing this school is. My 4 year old started his first year here and has grown leaps and bounds since the beginning of the school year. I love their nature based approach which lets the kids explore and discover the outdoors in their awesome fenced in playscape. Their philosophy of promoting independence, yet providing comfort and support is beautiful, and exactly what I searched for in a preschool. All the teachers and Directors at Covenant have been instrumental in my son's physical and emotional growth. The school also offers so many opportunities for parent involvement and really fosters an environment for kids to learn essential skills, all while having so much fun!”

“My daughter has been at Parkway North since she was an infant and she absolutely loves it. Watching her face light up when she sees one of the teachers or her friends makes me feel comfortable when dropping her off. The way they ensure the health and safety of the children is outstanding. As well, the app makes it easy for my husband and I to see what out daughter does on a daily basis and to show her curious grandparents. My daughter has definitelygrown tremendously since day one thanks to all of the amazing staff that have taken care of her since day one.”

“Kids Academy is the most loving, supportive, and attentive daycare our son has been in. After 1.5 years of disappointing corporate daycares, Kids Academy immediately felt like a loving home. The teachers are warm and engaged, the children are happy and thriving, and leadership takes an active role in the community and promoting early childhood education. To top it off, tuition is shockingly low compared to other daycares in the area. Above and beyond all expectations and highly recommended.”

“We have all 3 of our kids at Poko Loko and our kids are thriving, they love their teachers and staff. It is really unique to find a preschool with employee retention like Poko has. We love that we have gotten to know so many teachers over the years and having them be our teachers again as our younger twins move up! And Poko is especially magical in the spring and summer with its flowers, bright colors and things for kids to explore. Cannot speak more highly about the school, teachers, and community developed here!”

“We were in a different daycare prior to Covid, and its abrupt closure has had us make the switch to Goddard. It is a wonderful school, that is very well run by its owners. The teachers seem happy to be there, and our daughter has been thriving in this nurturing environment. There are a lot of extra activities included in the cost, such as music, special gym classes, and Spanish, as well as events for the families. Highly recommend!”

They have a nice curriculum and my daughter is always excited to go the next day and continue learning. The daycare also provides very healthy foods.

“Wonderful little school for the past 3+ years. Our kids started here when they were 3 years old, knowing no French. Within two years they were fluent. The teachers are amazing. The kids are able to learn at their own pace, without growing bored or frustrated by moving too slow or too fast in the subject matter. Being closely involved with students of different ages has encouraged independence and confidence, and has taught them how to help and patiently play with younger kids plus be at ease with older kids. We are very happy to have found La Petite École de Chicago for our family- it is the perfect fit for us!”

“I cant express how grateful enough to have attended this course. The instructors: Rose and Ana are very knowledgeable and have wealth of experience. They are very patient and passionate in teaching nurses. The class is small group and instructors gave individual skills training: student per student. I have learned patient life saving techniques and nursing safety which I did not learn from school or practice. This is a must have for all nurses. We deal with IVs everyday. I am blessed to have their guidance prior to starting my job as a newly grad. Nurse.”

“My son has been at ABC since he was about 10 months. He’s 4.5 now he has excelled especially with the potty training. The teachers are great and compassionate. Best evidence is that she has children who have been there since they were infants and are now in 6th grade. There’s a school across the street and if your kids attend they’ll walk to and from. I moved to Skokie and still prefer my son to go to ABC.”

“After being a single father for practically 3 years out of all the day cares I had my daughter in this is by far the best. And the kids love it too. I wish I would have known about this place sooner. But now we don't have to worry as much I know the kids are in a good place I can start getting my life back together now”

“Unity has been there the whole way helping to teach our kids to talk and be social, to play well with others, and then to prepare for the next stage of their lives. Also Unity has brought us an amazing community of friends that has helped shape our life in Evanston. There is a wealth of play dates, birthday parties, trips to the park and even some events just for the parents. Highly recommended!”

“We were very pleased with Children's Bright Beginnings! My child attended there for almost 2 years before starting kindergarten. He seemed well-prepared for school, and I know his readiness is due in huge part to the work of the CBB team. It was affordable, and my child felt safe/comfortable there. They managed to not have any COVID outbreaks (or any other kind) during our time there, which was certainly not the case with our prior daycare facilities. We also appreciated the experience and consistency of the staff.”

“This school is absolutely OUTSTANDING!!! Most of the teachers and the office admin are so easy to relate to and very personable. The assistant principal and principal, Mr. Mendez and Mrs. Ellison are AMAZING! They are tangible, fair and will experience every day life at Washington school WITH the parents AND the students. They respond fast and they are willing to listen with an ear of concern, care and accountability (as they are parents themselves). My children are happy, safe, having fun and learning with a few bumps along the way. GREAT JOB, WASHINGTON!!”
