We are all aware that the CV19 threat will have an impact on the faithful and hard working families…read morein this great country of ours. However, this day care is still asking for families to pay for the day care that this facility will not be able to provide. My Christian friends, please do not pay for services that can never be provided. This isn't like asking for refunds because of snow days. This facility cannot at this time meet any of its obligations. These are tough times, and if you are blessed enough to help them with payments, then please continue. If you are also struggling during this time, talk to a lawyer. Either way, do not give them money for an obligation they cannot meet.

Teachers and staff are attentive and caring, and there is a perfect balance of focus on academic and social growth. My younger kids look forward to going to NCLC every day, and my older kids wish they could still go. During COVID, the center adapted quickly and opened up as soon as they were allowed to, with new processes in place that kept teachers and students as safe as possible. Contrary to an earlier review, families were not charged while the center was shut down.

For example, some are on their phone during class, even though it is against the rules, but they never get caught. One in teacher in particular claims that students are breaking it, even thought they aren't.

I am from Nashua, but I have an old account from when I lived in San Francisco.

A special shoutout to Becky, the Executive Director, whose passion for early childhood education is palpable. Her leadership sets the tone for a positive atmosphere that truly stands out.

We highly recommend KinderCare at Riv to parents seeking quality childcare for their little ones.

My son has gone here for several years, and i was shocked to read the other review- but honestly…read moretypically people only review when angry. My son started this daycare as a painfully shy young kid, and he has grown so much. He loves the teachers and the kids there so much, they are super responsive with us; and I love him going there as well. We also had him picked up there for his preschool regularly and was great we were able to do that. Before sending my son here we had him going in Tyngsboro, MA (which was obviously a long drive there and back) because of how picky i was with daycares- but have nothing bad to say and honestly only praise with this one. Both myself, my son and my husband will be very sad when he will be full time in school and unable to come here regularly and hope my infant will be able to come here as well.

This is not a rant, this is a lengthy letter describing a factual recent event and should be read…read morethoroughly by parents who are contemplating this school as an option. To each their own, but here is my experience: The school is ran by teachers you'll never meet, and most if not all, seem to not be actual teachers with degrees but parents filling in to help, operated by a woman who will insult your child to your face while on the front steps of the school. They will give up on your child because of their inability to discipline or educate, that was made clear right away, when I was told they don't discipline. I was concerNed to hear this when the words came out of the woman's mouth (a few months back) but since meetings or proper discussions aren't a practice of theirs (always rushed with the door barely opened) I thought, this is a temporary babysitting space my daughter seems 2 enjoy, while we wait for our school of choice to have openings. Apparently my 4 year old took out her lunch instead of her snack so this means she has cognitive issues. Careful this place is dangerous, anyone who is NOT medically trained, who does not hold a degree in psychology or a phd, has NO RIGHT TO THROW MEDICAL LABLES ON YOUR CHILD because they simply claim to speak from experience. I have been a mother for 18 years, I am however not a trained professional in psychiatry, psychology, you won't see me labeling your child's physical or mental condition... Three kids, ranging from ages 18 to 4 and I have NEVER had a "teacher, school director" handle herself the way she did yesterday; this woman was seething with rage, like an old poodle! Throwing out a diagnosis of my child, while on the front steps of the school, a rushed conversation at pick up/drop off, while other parents are dropping off their kids... (Meeting like these are handled in a professional setting/manner in private, with supporting documents/notes to go over) & If you dare challenge the woman's un-educated diagnosis be prepared to get kicked off the property with the door slammed to your face while your child is still in the school! (don't worry I immediately removed my child from the erratic woman's grip, forcing myself back into the school, while this woman is screaming for the cops to be called, scaring the children, my child and Honestly everyone else)... As an expert parent however, having sent my three kids to several different schools over the years, what I can tell you with certainty is they have no idea how to educate children and clearly the tired director with twenty years experience should go on a leave of absence, she has no business being with small children. As for curriculum, the kids' daily activities are done on scrap paper, with writings on the back, looks like they tear paper out of old books or folders (not school related) and give to the kids to scribble On. Mind you it costs $255 a week. Your kids clothes and personal belongings will always be lost, misplaced or given to another child; we are out a sleeping bag, two pairs of shoes and at least 10 sweaters, I don't have the money to replace these items. When you ask for these items you will be told to wait phtisies, as you are never allowed in the school, for them to hand you over a bunch of items not one being your childs. Super shady. Back to my main point, they don't know how to discipline or teach toddlers, they will just tell you your child is the issue if your child is rambunctious, a toddler. Your 3 1/2, 4 year old child is the issue. Here's the kicker, they will not tell you anything to lead up to these claims or diagnosis. Over the last 8 months I was told twice (at pick up on these lovely front steps, with the door half open, her wretched head sticking out) that my child was a bit "tough" today... but that's it. So Let this sink in, you could be told your child has abnormal behaviors and these should be assessed, out of the blue, while standing on the front steps of this dump whole, with other parents around, and if you dare ask questions or offer tips or challenge the behavioral diagnosis, you will be kicked off the property, door slammed in your face... My daughter is now 4, she attends two other programs (gym and play group) and these two other businesses could not believe what was said by this woman about my typical 4 year old, shocked but mostly astonished as to how this was brought up to me. This school is a dump whole, and I am riddled with guilt for leaving my baby in their care over the last 8 months! I can't stress this enough, if it doesn't feel right, even though "it must be" and your child seems happy, pull your kid out or investigate.. do your due diligence. Because she's my third, I assumed she was ok even though the school didn't seem amazing or ideal, I ignored the little red flags. Shame on me. Shame on this school for being opened

The curriculum is thoughtfully designed to be challenging while encouraging curiosity, independence, and critical thinking. We've been amazed by how much our children have grown academically and personally. What makes this school truly exceptional is the staff. They know each child as an individual and genuinely nurture their unique strengths, interests, and confidence. It's clear that every child is seen, valued, and supported. As parents, there is nothing more important than knowing your children are safe, happy, and thriving. We feel incredibly thankful to be part of this community and have complete confidence in the education and care our children receive every day. We look forward to staying at Andover through 8th grade and couldn't imagine a better place for our family. Highly recommend!

They pay attention to every detail, encourage the kids to express themselves, build their gross motor skills, and create a happy environment for them to grow and learn. I am not surprised at the tremendous growth of this daycare due to the wonderful management implemented under the supervision of the Director, Ms. Antoinette. Whenever life takes me back to Tyngsboro, I would never hesitate to go back and work with the amazing teachers at this magnificent center.
