In the last 5 years, my son has never NOT wanted to go there. He always enjoys his time with not only the kids, but the adults who spend time talking and playing with him.

They are also reasonably priced!

Not only does our toddler adore her, but my husband and I feel equally appreciative of the care and attention she provides. As first-time parents, we were often unsure about many milestones, but she has been incredibly supportive and informative throughout the journey. Her knowledge and adherence to best practices have given us confidence as we navigate parenthood. The nurturing environment she creates is truly special, and it's evident that she genuinely cares for each child. We couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Planos Family Daycare and highly recommend her to other parents looking for a loving and professional person. Did I mention, the food she cooks, is exceptional and nutritionist. Our child cleans the plate!! Thank you Planos Family Child Care

My daughter, Akira, started attending First School the day after her 2nd birthday. Since being…read morethere she has grown and thrived; she has mastered potty training; and she is all about those letters! I'm very glad they use a classroom model (unlike in-home daycares) so kids can treat "daycare" like "school:. Akira even got enrolled in their optional gymnastics program! It's been a great place to see her grow. I cannot speak highly enough of the staff. Frankly, the staff is the reason I chose First School over the other daycares I considered. My first staff interaction was with Ms. Vanessa - who manages the front desk and enrollment. Ms Vanessa is the one who gave me the tour and introduced me to the teachers who would be working with my daughter. She spent about 20 mins one-on-one with me before I even committed to sending my child to this school. It was a great introduction! All the teachers are wonderful. Ms Jenn, Ms Trina, Ms. Marlene, Ms. Myra - just to name a few. They are calm, kind, and gentle. And - unlike her last school - they don't have a ton of turn over with a new teacher every 2 months. First School has a built a real community and I'm so glad my daughter gets to be a part of it.

She always makes sure that the children have what they need to be secure and have a pleasant day. For myself and my son Bradley, we enjoy talking with her and giving her hugs.

Both of my children have attended Jean Benson and I truly cannot say enough amazing things about…read morethis school. My daughter started there when she was 3, and now my 3 year old son has been enrolled since he was 2. I have had such a wonderful experience both times. From the very beginning, the staff has been caring, attentive, and incredibly loving. As a working mom, there is nothing more important than knowing your child is safe and well taken care of during the day. I never have to worry about my son while I'm at work. That peace of mind is priceless. My son absolutely loves going to school every day. He adores his teachers and talks about them and his classmates all the time. It's so clear how much they genuinely care about the kids. He also loves the food (which says a lot!), and I appreciate that they make sure the children are well fed and happy. The environment is warm, structured, and nurturing. The teachers create a space where the kids feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn and grow. My 3 year old comes home excited to share so many new things he has learned in his classroom. (He learned the whole alphabet his first year!) Watching both of my children thrive here has meant so much to me. I am so grateful for this preschool and everything they do for the kids. I would recommend this school to any parent looking for a place where their child will be truly loved and cared for. Thank you so much to the whole crew at Jean Benson. You are appreciated more than you know.

The teachers and staff are caring, patient, and dedicated. They were also very helpful during potty training which helped so much. Each morning, they check children's temperatures, which gives us parents peace of mind and shows their strong focus on health and safety. The school is very well organized with daily routines, activities, holiday events, learning programs, and strong parent communication. I always appreciated the progress reports and updates, showing how involved and attentive the teachers are. The environment is always clean, welcoming, and well managed, with consistent routines, rules, and food policies. Many teachers and staff have been there for many years, which speaks highly of the school's stability and management. A special thank you to Maria in the office (20+ years) and all the wonderful teachers my children have had, including Samantha (19+ years), Karen, Yatsiri, Nicole, and Lorena. I highly recommend this school to any parent looking for a clean, organized, loving, and trustworthy environment.

They were so helpful at maintaining consistency, despite the fact that potty training too longer than I hoped. Next year my daughter moves to another classroom, and we'll miss having Miss Arcadia.

From the moment I walked in and met Mrs. B I felt right at home. As a new mom I was so nervous for my 6 month old. Mrs. B was so warm and loving, I knew right away my little boy was going to get the best care. It was just a relief to have a provider who encouraged me and supported me nursing my son. Mrs B. became family. She loves on the kids and enjoys seeing them grow. On the toughest of days for our little guy she was there with welcoming arms and made everything better. 5 years later our son graduated from Mrs B. Daycare. In those 5 years as much as I would like to take credit she helped shaped our boy into one smart, fun loving kid. He learned to read, write, walk, talk and eat some of the best healthiest food around! He is ready for Kinder thanks to Mrs B. daycare. Things to note: 1. Loving, safe, family orientated environment 2. Clean (Always clean, and even helps your child to learn to clean up before they leave) 3. Lots of Learning! Fun ways to learn, very kid friendly and safe 4. Really works to help the children eat healthy and new try new foods. (my son mentioned how much he loves zucchini- Thanks Mrs. B) 5. No junk food or sugar drinks. Creates fun ways for kids to learn about different foods ( watermelons grow with seeds, etc) 6. Comfortable spot to nurse if you plan to during your work hours. 7. Doesn't give up on the children. Some of our biggest struggles we have with our littles, Mrs B. helps to work through those. I can go on and on. If your looking for a daycare. I highly recommend reaching out to Mrs B.
