    “A letter we wrote to the director sums up our review…. TJ and I just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge how incredible both Helena and Kathleen have been with our son. As you know our lives have been totally flipped upside down with this insurance claim and hotel life. Being at school is like a second home for our so. Over the summer he had so much anxiety with the changes of being at school and away from us. Helena and Kathleen suggested we keep him a kitten until December while he got his footing. Since they were familiar faces and everything in his home life would be unfamiliar it seemed like the logical choice going into the school year and it turned out to be the best choice we’ve made. He is thriving with them. He loves his friends his has made, he sings his ABCs, he counts to 10, he tells us all about his day and loves looking at all of his pictures from the day when he gets home. From being scared to walk into the building and throwing up every day from anxiety to asking to see his teachers and friends when we are at home. We couldn’t have asked for better teachers and we really felt it in our hearts to let you and Michael know just how incredible these two women are. Teachers are some of the most undervalued people and we are sure to a lot of families you guys are just a place to just drop off their kids while they are working but for us we wanted a place where our son could feel like it was his second home. Helena and Kathleen have taken such care and time with him and worked with him at his pace to build trust. The other day I was moved to tears when I got a video of him painting by himself for the first time. There has been a lot of darknesses lately but these two ladies have helped give us so much light and we are truly grateful. We are so incredibly sad that his time as a kitten is winding down but we will be forever grateful to them for giving him a strong springboard into his education. These things really do matter. Thank you so much Goddard and the Kittens class for allowing our sweet boy the space to grow and feel safe and for giving us his parents the comfort knowing that he is ok, and that with love and guidance at Goddard the sky is the limit. Our hearts are full. At a time when so much seems so unsure this just seems so right. We are forever grateful, thank you for this. These teachers should be celebrated to the max. They are the reason we stayed at Goddard!!!”

    “Both of our children attended ESBP from age 2 up until they graduated to the public school system. We cannot say enough about what ESBP mean to our kids and our family. We felt so comfortable dropping of our kids every day knowing they were receiving an outstanding and enriching education while also being wonderfully cared for. The staff at ESBP could not have been more attentive and caring. We looked at many preschools, and never doubted for a second our decision to go with Early Steps.”

    “As a family starting a new life in the United States, we were concerned about how our younger son would adjust to a new language, culture, and school environment. Choosing Goddard School was one of the best decisions we made for him. Ms. Katherine is the one who made it possible for us. From the very beginning, the teachers and staff welcomed our son with kindness, patience, and genuine care. They created a safe and nurturing environment where he felt comfortable, valued, and encouraged to learn. Over time, we watched him grow in confidence, communication skills, social interactions, and independence. What means the most to us is seeing how happy he is every day. He enjoys going to school, talks about his teachers and friends at home, and is always excited to share what he has learned. The progress he has made since joining Goddard School has exceeded our expectations. We are deeply grateful to the teachers, staff, and leadership team for their dedication and support. They have played an important role in our son’s early development and in helping our family feel welcomed in our new community. We highly recommend Goddard School to any family looking for a caring, professional, and high-quality learning environment for their children.”

The curriculum is great, and the care the teachers show for the children is evident -- our daughter is always excited to go to class each day. Special shoutout to Ms. Athena and Ms. Janeth, who both take great care of our daughter and who our daughter talks about constantly. I definitely feel peace of mind knowing she is with wonderful teachers who are looking out for her and helping her grow each day!”

    “Our Savior Lutheran School (OSLS) is amazing!!! I cannot say enough great things about the school and entire staff. Many of the staff have been there for a long time and are very experienced. They all have a special way teaching and interacting with the students. The academic rigor prepares them well for higher education. I love the support, respect, and values taught as well. I highly recommend OSLS!”

    “I highly recommend Brightstart to any parent looking at daycare options in the Petworth/Brightwood Park area. Outside of its incredible staff and facility, the fact that families don't need to provide daily/weekly items such as milk, sheets, diapers, and food, etc. really set Brightstart apart for us. We had daily interactions with our daughter's teachers, who helped coach our daughter (and us) through so many transitions. The teachers were also great at posting daily pictures and coming up with creative activities to make each day a little different, but still adhering to a routine (e.g. learning to play soccer, group music classes). We also loved the amount of time that our daughter spent outside in their covered and fenced playground.”

    “Miss Jessica went above and beyond during the snowstorm by hosting a virtual session for the kids. It was such a thoughtful and creative way to keep them connected while they were home from school. The children were able to interact with one another, enjoy a virtual lunch chat, and take part in a short, fun fitness activity—all through Zoom. The session was engaging, well-organized, and exactly what the kids needed. We truly appreciate Miss Jessica’s dedication and creativity.”

    “Our son attended Busy Bee for 20 months and we are so sad to leave due to an out of state move. If we could take Busy Bee with us to our new home, we would! We feel that his teachers became our family during his time there, we not only trusted them but they truly took care of our son like he was their own. We attribute much of our son’s development to the curriculum at Busy Bee and their hands-on learning practices. He loved his time here and we will miss the teachers so much!!! We highly recommend Busy Bee for child care!”

    “I cannot say enough wonderful things about Primrose School of Downtown Bethesda. The teachers truly care about the children. Both of our kids were always so excited to see their teachers and classmates at drop off and were smiling just as much at pickup. We started off with a 2 year old at Primrose, who went through preK, and when our second child was born we started him as an infant without hesitation, since we knew he would be so well cared for. All the teachers, even those who never specifically had our kids, knew our children’s names. Our kids grew here in terms of their education, but even more important to us, was that they were safe and loved while they learned. Our family recommends this school without hesitation and are so grateful for our time there.”

    “We are so lucky and grateful to have found ERCDC. Our two kids have been very happy there from day 1. The staff and teachers are all loving and truly care about each and every child. The centre has a nurturing and homely feel that makes it stand out from other bigger, corporate-like institutions. Communication with the teachers and management team is also very good and we get lots of updates and photos everyday. It will be hard to leave!”

    “I truly appreciate the education and foundation my children received at Loving 2 Learn. The staff deeply care about the overall wellbeing and growth of the children in their care. The quality of the curriculum utilized throughly prepares children for Kindergarten. I highly recommend them to anyone searching for quality, affordable, faith-based and loving childcare. The staff are lead by an owner who cares, is hands on and has open communication. Not native to PG, Loving 2 Learn treated us like family!”

    “I came into tech from a completely different world — catastrophe adjusting. For years, I traveled across the country helping people recover from major disasters, but over time I wanted a career that challenged me mentally instead of physically. With my engineering background and growing interest in Linux and cloud infrastructure, I knew I needed a structured program that went beyond just earning certifications. That’s what led me to Yellow Tail Tech. Their program doesn’t just teach theory — it includes networking, Security+, RHCSA, RHCE prep, and an actual apprenticeship that gives you real-world experience. The instructors I had (Alfred and Riky) were patient, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping every student succeed, even when I was balancing long work hours with classes. What really makes Yellow Tail Tech stand out is how much they emphasize understanding the why behind every command and concept. That strong foundation gave me the confidence to step into IT, ready to contribute from day one. I was able to obtain my RHCSA certification on the first attempt! If you’re serious about making the jump into tech — especially Linux or cloud — Yellow Tail Tech gives you the structure, support, and skills to actually make it happen.”

    “We’ve experienced three different daycares, and Georgetown stands out in ways I haven’t seen elsewhere. Here are two strengths: They care: The connection between administration, teachers, parents, and kids is genuine—they care, they communicate, and they actively listen. When feedback is given, it isn’t dismissed; it’s thoughtfully incorporated. They are flexible: When unexpected situations arise, the administration responds quickly and adapts without compromising the kids’ experience or safety. Like any daycare, there are areas that can continue to grow, but I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Georgetown to friends and family. It’s a place where children are surrounded by warmth, kindness, and a teaching style that truly supports them as they grow.”

    “Northeast Stars is wonderful. We had some issues with a previous daycare and decided to switch and we immediately saw improvement in our little man. He had been on the verge of talking for a couple months and within a month of NE Stars his talking greatly improved. He has become so self sufficient and I contribute that to NE Stars. He is excited to go to “school” every day and it is comforting to know he is somewhere safe where he can grow and build relationships with his friends. The staff are extremely flexible and communicate everything efficiently - you never feel out of the loop. We are honestly sad to be leaving for Pre-K 3. If you are looking for a daycare with a safe, structured environment this is the place for you and your little one.”

    “We had our son in pre-K here during the pandemic, and our daughter in the program Estrellitas started to enable kids to do remote learning with supervision. Our kids learned a ton of Spanish, and did art, games, walks in the woods, field trips, and playgrounds throughout the pandemic. Their staff is incredibly committed and hard-working, and showed up to help our kids throughout the pandemic when other people did not. I would recommend the program to anyone, and will definitely have my kids back for their summer program and school breaks.”

    “We are so thankful for the amazing work, Ms.Millis. She has done this this year. Watching our child grow in reading, early math, and especially learning Bible stories at such a young age has been a blessing. Her patience, love, and dedication shine through everything she does. The graduation was beautiful and filled with joy — a true reflection of her heart for the children. Thank you for giving our child such a strong and loving start. We appreciate you so much! —”

I appreciate the educational focus that KAL has, and I am confident that they are helping me prepare my little one for kindergarten. Each and every team member is engaging, kind, and really thoughtful about how the children interact with the world. It's hard to find a program that has it all, but KAL does and for that I am truly grateful.”
