We had very bad experience with this day care. They only care dollars not the kids. My kid is 3 yrs old and they put him in 2 yr old class room and charged me more and they told me he will back to 3 yr class room in 2 weeks but that never happened. Teachers never welcome parents or kids when entering the room. They are always in their own world. They dont care or take responsibility if toddlers keep any choking objects in their mouth. Teachers are very rude they are not even trained at all they put front staff as their teachers. Not sure why do they charge very high for poor care. classrooms are not even maintained neat. I dont recommond this place at all.

Teachers never welcome parents or kids when entering the room. They are always in their own world. one day my toddler was putting sand and choking objects in his mouth teachers were chatting with each other. I'm glad that I went early that day and could see him putting the things and we immediately took him out on the same day. Teachers are very rude they are not even trained at all they put front staff as teachers. Not sure why do they charge very high for poor care. classrooms are not even maintained neat.

My experience with NGCC is not pleasant. I am sure many parents I met have same thought. I don't generally write any review or negative review. But this one deserved one as others need to be careful. Front desk staff are not respectful. Teachers we got for our kid was least bothered. Many times kid enters class room, there is no one to greet or even say hi. sometimes kid is down for some reason, crying etc. Someone does not take responsibility to come greet and take kid inside. I had better experience in other place in neighboring city. But may be I expected better here, which I didn't find!Also, price wise kept increasing and they say they reserve rights to increase price as they need. When kid goes to higher classes the price should go little low. But they kept same and say it is their right and we can choose to stay or not! You will definitely not get a good service for the amount you would pay!Also, regarding pick up delays, if there is even few minutes delay they ask us to sign and pay late fees. Many times there is road work and traffic and unexpected delays happen. I wish they could be considerate to parents. They even changed the closing time to 5:30 PM instead of 6.. but fees keeps increasing! So I would recommend parents looking for good place to reconsider other near by day cares rather than this place. I still thank NGCC for what they could do! But they really need to understand to respect, give better service, teachers with better interaction with students, price increase few times a year is unacceptable.Good luck to them. Hope they address these problems and make better place for upcoming parents and children.

My experience with Next Generation has been wonderful. With being a first-time parent, I have never felt more supported and safe when dropping my son off. There was never a day that I wasn't given updates as to how well he was doing along with pictures to help get me through the day. The teachers do a great job creating a curriculum for the children to thrive in no matter their age. I have seen such improvement in our son is just the year and a half he's been here.Along with the great staff the management team has been wonderful as well. They are always communicating with families along with answering any questions I have. Overall, I would recommend Next Generation to anyone looking for childcare. The staff truly become part of your family and create a warm and welcoming environment for each of the children. We are thankful for all the staff and management team does!

Our girls LOVE NGCC in Hopkinton! They've shown tremendous developmental progress during their six months at the center thanks to the excellent teachers. The staff is a pleasure to work with as well - very friendly, patient and responsive. Highly recommended!

My son started at Next Generation at the age of 3 in the pre preschool program. After 3 years of only being watched by family members and never being around a lot of other kids (due to him being an only child and of course the pandemic) you can imagine the the transition to being in preschool was a little hard. The teachers and managers at Next Generation in Hopkinton we’re so understanding and accommodating of his transition. They were able to make him feel comfortable and safe, and able to create one on one time with him. Coming into school he also had a pretty severe speech delay. Despite being in Early Intervention since the age of 1, he only said a few words, wouldn’t repeat other peoples words and had difficulties playing with other kids because they didn’t understand him. After only 2 months of being at Next Generation he has said more than 100 new words, speaks in full sentences, explains his emotions and even has made friends, even BEST friends in his class. Next Generation is in my opinion the best place for your kids.

Driving by JUST NOW and seen a women who works there pick up a child angry and frustrated because the child was standing by the gate door. She picked him up and walked him to the corner and slammed him onto the ground hard and walked away.. The Boy looked no younger than 18months old. To whom it may concern Fire that Lady. It made me sick to think if that was my child and no knowing this happens.. So here I am. This all Happened while sitting at the lights. If she can't handle working with kids with care she shouldn't be working there. Blonde lady with a heavier set Blonde lady. I hope the right person sees this

Our daughter started at Next Generation when she was three months old, and went there through the complete Pre-K program. She had amazing, caring teachers in every single room she was in and had a wonderfully positive experience from day one. The curriculum was always age appropriate and filled with fun learning experiences. I just can't say enough good things about the staff! I always knew my daughter was safe and loved there and as a parent, that peace of mind was incredible. I cannot recommend Next Generation enough!

I cannot say enough good things about NGCC of Hopkinton! We started sending my son at 9 months and he's been enrolled for over a year now. Seeing the growth and development in him has been amazing. I attribute much of that to the teachers, staff, and program in place at NGCC. My husband and I feel so at ease dropping him off our son and knowing he's in great hands all day. The updates in the app and ability to easily call or reach out to the teachers, if need be, give such great peace of mind. Our son leaves happy and has bonded with his classroom friends and teachers even better than we could have imagined. I 100% recommend sending your child to NGCC of Hopkinton!

Very happy indeed with our families experience here at NGCC :) After moving towns we were initially a little apprehensive after having a good experience at the earlier child care centre. Needless to say, both my girls love the centre ! Right from how welcoming the staff is who are always cheerful, kind and address all your concerns and queries well , to the classroom staff who work with you to understand and help you better , our girls can't be more happy :)The emphasis on overall learning along with strong social behavioral encouragement is noteworthy ! Apart from imparting age appropriate classroom skills the help with toilet training and making sure kids interact with their peers and teachers and grow into their personalities and get tuned to being kind and share is very nice :)All through the pandemic they have supported our changing needs very well and are always flexible to accommodate any requests and want us and the kids to be happy at the end of the day.. Thank you NGCC and the entire staff for all that you do :) More power !!!

Our son, who will soon be two, has been attending Next Generation Children’s Center since he was 6 months old and sending him here was one of the best decisions we have made. They provide a very caring and nurturing environment for our little guy to thrive in. He has learned so much in his short time with his amazing teachers! We love our Next Gen Family and are so happy to have them in our son’s life!

Our family loves Next Generation Hopkinton! Our 3 year daughter (who is very shy) runs into school with a smile everyday. She tells us all about her friends, teachers and the fun activities she participated in on a daily basis. Her teachers worked with her to build confidence with her peers, and her social skills and language have improved immensely since she stated at this daycare. The staff is friendly and nurturing. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful setting :)

We started sending my son to NGCC about 7 months ago and have been thrilled with the care and learning experience he has received there. As first time parents sending our son to daycare without being able to go to his classroom due to Covid protocols (all being handled extremely well), the NGCC staff and his teachers have all exceeded our expectations of what he (and we as parents!) would get out of a daycare experience. His teachers have shown him such care, attention, and dedication, along with making us as parents feel confident and comfortable. We have total confidence that his teachers are helping him to thrive. We are incredibly happy with our decision to choose NGCC!

Our decision to join the NGCC community almost four years ago was the best thing we could have done for both of our girls! All of management and the teachers are beyond wonderful, and our girls receive the same love and care that they do at home. Their practices and above and beyond communication over the last year with the limited in person interaction has been great, keeping us informed and confident in sending our kids into a safe and caring environment. The days are clearly filled with fun and endless learning with the amazing teachers, as our four-year-old is always teaching us things that she’s learned and experienced in her classroom, and our eight-month-old is consistently showing new development and skills. We are so happy with our experience with NGCC and would recommend the school to anyone looking for a home away from home for their kids!

I can't say enough about the Next Generation Center in Hopkinton. They welcomed our family with open arms back in September and we are so happy. They go above and beyond with pandemic protocols and I feel very safe having my kids there. They also have incredible teachers and staff who work there. They over-communicate at all times and create so many fun activities for our children. They run into the classroom and come home each day happy and tired. We love it here!
