Love it!!! I wouldn't want my child to go to any other school.
I love that this School goes above a typical Daycare. All the teachers rotate so no faculty member is unknown to any of the children. My son knows them all by name and they engage with him everytime they see him. Ms. Elizabeth is very easy to talk to about concerns and she handles them very quickly.
