I had a child at Shrewsbury Learning Center and he absolutely loved it! When I went in, the classrooms had white boards on the wall displaying the weeks activities and what classroom it was. The place was always kept clean and on numerous occasions when dirt was tracked in, it was cleaned up before I left. Amazing, is the only word that I can describe this center. The teachers truly care about each child and have furthered my sons knowledge to where his kindergarden teachers were surprised.
Finally, in all my years of having my child there, not once did I hear of a teacher abusing a child. The center respected my kid as well as the others; the staff was always polite. All & all I would most certainly recommend this center to anyone who is looking for a child care center where the children are prepared for the future and not just monitored by staff.
<blockquote class="summary description">This was the worst daycare setting I have ever encountered. The classes are unorganized and the owners are rude to both the parents and children. One of the owners believes that it is acceptable to spray children with water in their faces with a spray bottle....seriously, do they think the children are pets?!!? I would NEVER recommend this facility to any parent who cares about their childs well-being. In addition, they were reported to the state and nothing was done!</blockquote>
My infant is enrolled in Shrewsbury Learning Center and my husband and I love it. The staff takes exceptional care of our baby and are more like family to us than providers. Being a new parent, we were nervous leaving the baby and the teachers made the transition for all three of us a wonderful experience. The center is absolutely beautiful and the rooms are bright and inviting. We would recommend Shrewsbury Learning Center to anyone!
