“My daughter has flourished here after having a bad daycare experience at another facility. The teachers have taught her so much and truly care for her. The teachers and director are always open to talking with you about any concern or questions you have. They allow my daughter to be her authentic self and we love it ☺️”

“We have had a wonderful experience at Goddard School, and feel so grateful for the warm, loving, knowledgeable, dedicated, and attentive teachers. Our son loves going to school and is excited to learn every day!”

“My 5 year old has been at the E. 43rd location since this past school year attending aftercare, and now he is in the summer camp. I must say, he LOVES it here. He gets up excited everyday to go. Ms. Yvette is great with the kids coming through the door every morning ALL staff greets us with smiles. I love that they are very festive and active with the children. Any questions or concerns I had were always answered. The days when school closed early they still provided transportation for my son to after care while I still had to work. I would definitely recommend this center ☺️”

“We’ve been sending both of our kids here for the past two years, I appreciate that ALL the teachers know their names, my kids feel comfortable with all staff and love hugging them goodbye! The school works to make improvements ( new playground was installed this summer) and there is always fun events for students and families.”

“I'm so happy I came across GGLC while looking up preschools for my daughter. She had always been home with me; no daycare, no sitter. I'm a 1st time mom and very, very protective. It was a big step for me to take, deciding to put my baby in school. I was very nervous. When we took a tour of the school with Ms. Kim, I was very impressed. The classrooms were so nice & clean, the kids looked happy, and Ms. Kim was very open & honest when answering all of my questions. And very nice. My daughter seemed to enjoy the tour as well. Ms. Kim kept in touch, getting back to me quickly with anymore questions I had. My daughter is enrolled now & she's always telling me how much she loves her school, her teachers, and her friends.”

“Celebree has wonderful programs and wonderful staff. My son Joey loves coming here in the summer and when he has no school. Also the staff love him so much as well and always takes good care of him for me. I know that my baby after I give birth will be in good hands and I have nothing to worry about when it comes to my children.”

“Teachers and staff at the Goddard School are outstanding. From the 1st day we came to tour the facilities. They took time to explain everything in detail and made a great first impression. They had so much patience with us as first time parents utilizing childcare. We were very nervous, unsure of how our son would adjust to being in school and how our family would be treated by teachers and staff. However, very early, staff reassured us that we could call anytime to check in on him and they were always friendly and polite when we did.I am so pleased with how Ms. Maria and Ms Sierra cared for and taught our son. They were never bothered by my calls “just to check in”. They worked with us when we realized that nap time was an issue for our son and they were so accommodating. They took command of a classroom of over 20 kids with love and encouragement. The teachers communicated with us, letting us know how our son was progressing with learning and interacting with the other kids. When we were looking for schools, we wanted somewhere that our son would learn. Ms Maria and Ms Sierra took so much time teaching and providing feedback. He learned more than we thought was possible in a small amount of time and spoke of his teachers fondly. We are truly grateful.”

“My son is currently enrolled in the two's program at the Cockeysville location. Prior to this, we had him enrolled in another daycare that simply did not meet our standards. Ever since he started Celebree, we have felt more at home and far more confident in his development. His confidence, speech, and physical skills have drastically improved. Ms. Nicole and Ms. Kyla have been the best with him, ensuring all needs are met and going the extra mile to communicate every bit of his day and share adorable pictures. The office staff, Sarah and Madison, go the extra mile in customer service - I have yet to enter or leave the building without being addressed by name and a smile put on my face. I cannot imagine a better daycare for me, my son, or his development. You will not find this level of care anywhere else!”

“My experience with Celebree School of Lutherville has been outstanding! I genuinely feel the love and care walking through the door each and every day. There are teachers from rooms my son hasn't even been in that call him by name to say "Good morning!" or compliment his new outfit. As a first time mom, there are times I often have questions how to navigate certain things. I have complete trust and confidence that I could talk to the directors or any of the teachers and know that I am getting a knowledgeable and caring response with my son's best interest at heart. I am also amazed at the magic I witness as the team of teachers are able to hold the attention of the children and keep them all on track with the activity at hand. To top it off there are plenty of opportunities to come together as a community, most recently with their Breast Cancer Awareness walk and Trunk or Treat for Halloween. We feel extremely proud to be a part of the Celebree family!!”

“Our son attended Goddard Towson for 4 years and if we could have kept him there for Kindergarten, we would have! It was very hard leaving such a nurturing environment that became such a comfortable home away from home for him. EVERYONE at this school is so welcoming and caring! The teachers all help to create the perfect classroom experience that emphasizes learning through play while encouraging and promoting independence. The administration staff are so helpful and in many instances go out of their way to ensure a positive experience tailored to your child's specific needs. Our son made many great friends here (both child and adult) and I know yours will too! Don't for a second hesitate to send your child here - it was one of the best decisions we ever made! Five VERY BIG Stars for Goddard Towson!!”

“New Song is such a wonderful school with great teachers and staff. My kids transfered here from Monarch Academy when it closed a few years ago; and my kids immediately loved the teachers and the atmosphere. Principal Fireside is awesome and genuinely cares about his students and staff. I love it!”

“We had a short experience here due to moving but I would highly recommend Life Prep. This was our 2 year old daughter's first day care/early learning experience so it was a transition both for us and her! We were so happy with the kindness of the staff and their willingness to accommodate her need for support to sleep (contact napper :)) Life Prep is a caring, CLEAN and supportive environment. Thanks to Ms. Cenita, Ms. Cornish, Ms. Brooks, Ms. B and Ms. Maya for a great experience.”

“The school is great and has the best staff to keep them running. On a day like 01/16/23 though, looking outside and seeing, hearing, even feeling the conditions makes it apparent to everyone that they should be in the house. Now granted not everyone has that luxury but sending your staff to work on an icy snowy day like this is unacceptable. The weather could bring so many casualties to the staff or even the parents and children.”

“We couldn't be happier with our experience at KinderCare. After a previous daycare experience that left us feeling quite disappointed, we were apprehensive, but from day one, KinderCare has exceeded our expectations in every way.One of the standout features for us is their exceptional communication with parents. Their user-friendly app allows us to stay connected throughout the day, providing us with peace of mind. We receive real-time updates, including adorable pictures of our sweet girl, as well as detailed information about her feedings, naps, and diaper changes. This level of transparency is truly appreciated.The care and attention our daughter receives is exceptional. The staff goes above and beyond to engage her in various activities that are not only fun but also crucial for her development. We've seen her skills flourish, thanks to the nurturing environment they provide.In summary, KinderCare is nothing short of amazing. Our daughter's improved mood and developmental progress are a testament to the outstanding care and commitment they offer. We feel fortunate to have found such a caring and dedicated daycare for our child.”

“I have been sending my daughter (8) here for the past 3 years. She came from another private school, and I can say the switch was a great decision. The staff is great, very attentive, and communication is A1. My daughter started during the year when Covid was still well alive, but the way they handled in person learning, I couldn’t have asked for a better way, it showed from the beginning they cared about the kids and the families. The curriculum is awesome, with my daughter being in 3rd grade, she is learning things that her friends at other schools haven’t even touched yet. The faith base of the school is great. My daughter is so IN LOVE WITH GOD, and I can only thank the staff because the way they teacher about him, helps the kids understand on a child’s level. My daughter has grown as a young girl, the excitement she has every morning to wake up and go to school is amazing and it’s not just so she can see her friends, its because she loves to learn and loves her teacher. The school gives me a sense of reassurance, that everyday when I drop her off, she is in safe hands and good learning. The class sizes are smaller than normal and that is great for me when it comes to the focus the teachers are able to have when it comes to the kids learning and the help they might need. I would recommend the school if you’re looking for a place where your child is able to grow in all aspects of life when it comes to being a kid and everyday learning. The tuition you can’t beat either. They are preparing our kids for excellence.”

“I feel safe and comfortable dropping my infant off everyday knowing she is well taken care of. I'm very impressed with the whole team Joanne, Susan, Patricia, Alicia, Ms. Rae all wonderful. Very responsive and open to changes in babies schedule. Feels like home.”

“This school teacher and admin staff really goes above and beyond for the children. They pay attention to detail which makes you feel welcomed. This is my son with his teacher whom he adores”

“My son has been there for a year now and all I can say is Annies Ark is Amazing! This place is not just a daycare, it is school because the instructors there are hands on and they educate the children.I can say without hesitation that if your child is fortunate enough to attend Annies Ark, they will for sure be ahead of the curve when they start kindergarten.5 Stars are simply not enough!”

“We have had an amazing experience at La Petite, from the staff, to the program and everything in between. My daughter truly loves going to school everyday and being a single mom it makes it so much easier dropping her off for the day when I know that she is being well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“My daughter loves it here! The owners are very friendly people and it feels like home the way they treat their students. My daughter loves all the attention they give her.The teacher for the 2s room has been working there since she was 17. Says a lot about teacher retention rate. They also have an on site cook which is a plus!”

“I cannot say how much we LOVED this La Petite!! Everyone there is sooo amazing. Staff is very friendly and professional. This was my daughter’s first daycare. She went there from 3 months old to almost 16 months old. The ONLY reason we are leaving is because we are moving to Frederick. We are so sad to be leaving. My daughter absolutely loved her teachers, and had so much fun everyday she was there. Belinda is amazing to work with and is very accommodating with every request we made. She also helped make our first day the easiest she could (especially since it was during Covid). Ms. Byrd and Ms. Ciara were amazing at taking care of our daughter and making sure we got TONS of videos and pictures throughout the day. They were so loving and kind, I never had to worry about her while she was with them. She recently switched to a new class, and Mrs. V and Ms. Sarah didn’t disappoint either! They are very communicative and did a wonderful job helping our daughter master very important milestones. They are great at what they do! All the teachers are great, and every interaction I have is always very pleasant. I cannot thank them enough for everything they have done, and the amazing job they did taking care of our daughter while my husband and I were at work. Side note: they also have spirit week, splash days, and other really fun activities to participate in. :) Just an overall fantastic daycare and I would recommend everyone bring their children there.”

“My son is currently enrolled here and my daughter went through the program previously. We couldn't be happier with our experience. Donna and her staff have been very professional from day one. Our kids are very different and have both learned so much and been treated with so much love from the staff here. It is really a hidden gem in the Towson area. We have been treated like family and I would highly recommend PCCLC to our friends.”

“Our son has been at Friday's Child for 8 months and we've had a really great experience so far. He's grown so much being there.He's learned so much and is very social with the other kids. The staff really cares about him and he looks forward to seeing them each day. Many of the teachers have been there for years.Like any local business, a big difference in our experience is because of the personal relationships. There are larger daycare corporations in the area that can offer some more bells and whistles, in particular technology interface. Ultimately, the decision is personal for each child and family. Definitely worth checking out!We really appreciate thow the staff has aided in our child's development.”
