My son went to hillcrest for preschool and prek he has some anxiety issues and his teachers met him with understanding, patience and compassion! He also goes for aftercare! We just had our daughter and cannot wait for her to be loved just as much as our son is by the staff! Amy and Danielle are the most compassionate and warm professionals I have had the pleasure of associating with.Their summer camp program is top tier. My son cannot wait to go back every year. We are life members of hillcrest! Thank you so much Amy and Danielle for creating a perfect environment for learning, fun and play!

Changed my 5 month olds daycare to Hillcrest and I couldn’t be more pleased and happy. Owner is caring and compassionate. Staff is absolutely amazing. I never feel uneasy leaving her in their hands. Thank you to all the staff!

Amy and the whole Hillcrest team are incredible. Unpretentious and kind, they treat children with respect and care, while providing a great educational experience. We came to Hillcrest after having a horrible experience at a Montessori school. Not only did my son feel safe at hillcrest, he also made great friends. Ms Jackie’s pre-k is unmatched. My son entered kindergarten prepared academically and socially. Could not recommend more!

Hillcrest academy! Amazing! My son was born during the height of COVID. He struggled socially big time. We started at hillcrest last year and he has thrived leaps and bounds! I cannot thank them enough. They are family and I want to keep him there forever ❤️

Amy and Danielle run an amazing program. They have a staff of caring teachers who take such good care of the children in their care. The summer program is jam packed with amazing activities. My children love the program ! There is no other place in the area I would send my kids for summer camp.

As a former preschool teacher (never worked at Hillcrest), I’ve admired Hillcrest Academy. I’ve been in trainings and completed my CDA with Hillcrest teachers. Learning alongside them, I’ve seen how passionate, creative, and innovative they are. You can tell that they truly love their job and enjoy what they do, and that is very important when it comes to encouraging and teaching toddlers and preschoolers. I learned some tips and tricks from their teachers that I applied to my own classrooms. I normally don’t leave reviews, especially for places I’ve never been, but I figured you should all know my perspective, as a teacher from a different school. Hillcrest has a great reputation and much respect in the Early Education field! I would’ve loved to apply there, but it’s too far for me.

Love this school. My son has grown so much and his mind is expanding with knowledge every time he comes home from school. From front desk to classrooms everyone is amazing.

I am so pleased with Hillcrest Academy. My two grandchildren have been in their summer camp program for a little over a month now and absolutely love it. They eagerly get up to go there every morning, and always come home with a smile on their faces. I love the variety of activities they have, as well as field trips weekly. The staff is extremely professional and kind. I cannot say enough good things about Hillcrest Academy and would highly recommend them without reservation. Thank you, Amy and Danielle for the care you give to my grandchildren. It is much appreciated. I look forward to sending them for after school care this coming year, as well.

Hillcrest is an amazing school, and I would highly recommend it! I recently transferred my identical 2yo twin girls into Hillcrest from another facility. Hillcrest came highly recommended, yet I was still surprised at just how great they are. My girls are loved and cared for, and they are getting the individual attention that they need. It is such a relief to drop them off in the morning and go to work knowing they are in such wonderful hands. The twins now have consistency in their routine and familiar faces around them all day. It is not run like a business and the owner and teachers took the time to really get to know the girls individually.

Hillcrest Academy is the absolute greatest daycare/preschool/summer camp. Amazing staff and owners. Lots for the littles to do. They enjoy ever single day there. I never worry about my kids. They are always safe and truly cared for. Amy and all of her teachers go out of their way to treat every single child and parent like they are family. No place compares
