I have written a review previously, but wanted to add additional feedback as my son has now entered the Pre-K program at Children's Nest. I am beyond pleased with his growth and enthusiasm to learn this year! Ms. Lauren and staff are doing an amazing job. Michael is excited to spell / write his name, letters and ABCs. I feel confident he will be well prepared for Kindergarten next year!
Very pleased with the care my son receives. He loves Children's Nest and we feel confident our son is in good hands. My son started in the infant program and is now in the toddler program. They provide a wonderful curriculum and schedule with the perfect balance of fun and learning. Highly recommend!
