"This preschool is not like any other preschool - it's like a second family to our family. The teachers are caring, nurturing, kind and simply wonderful and share a connection with the children. Rosanne the Owner and Gail the Director along with Karen and Mary are always available to discuss any issue and offer guidance. The children are always engaged with projects and bring home artwork and other beautiful crafts they make. They learn a lot of self help skills and manners. During the year they also have a dance teacher, hip hop, Spanish and even yoga as well as an art teacher. I feel my son is safe and well taken care of and he loves it!"  Anne Browne
