Hands-down the most impressive preschool in the downtown area! Convenient to downtown office buildings and the Wilmington/Christiana Hospital. Open Arms Academy on Jefferson Street and adjacent to Hanover Presbyterian Church on Baynard Boulevard has every imaginable tool necessary to prepare your child for school! The caring and contentious staff here have it all-together and should be commended for their one-on-one interaction with the children. I challenge anyone to go in for a tour of this center and not come out impressed with what they have to offer! Kudos to Ms. Kathy and her team of teachers!
