We just moved to New Orleans from Salt Lake City and I was immediately drawn to this school. The…read moregirls are happy, and the staff and parents are all so proud to be a part of the school. My daughter is THRIVING here and is so excited to come to school that she runs down the street, through the gates, down the hall, and immediately to her classroom. Joining this school was like joining a Hogwarts house - we didn't join a school, we joined a vibrant community. Many of my daughters classmates have had all their relatives go to school here, the ties run deep! They have so many ways to get involved, socialize, and fun events that it feels like I joined a club or sorority. I run into parents from my daughters class outside of school often and I no longer feel like a stranger to New Orleans, but a welcomed member of my new community. Being a part of this school has been my favorite thing about New Orleans so far. Also, I love the outfits, the logo, and the breathtakingly beautiful grounds. The best schools in Salt Lake City (and the competing schools in the area) can't hold a candle to this place. Worth every penny. P.S. Of the Hogwarts Houses, this school would be Gryffindor. ;)

The education in every subject, the teacher-child ratio, and the pleasant but no nonsense teachers. In addition they offer aftercare which adds play time and/or additional educational time (cooking, etc). I suggest going and checking out what this coed school has to offer. Best in the city...

Established in 1969, St. George's holds a unique position in the community based on its concept of "customized education," which builds upon the distinct talents and learning styles of each individual student. St. George's has the lowest student-to-teacher ratio (5:1) of any school in the area. Their small size and abundance of enrichment programs enable faculty, students and parents to work together using a proven model of educating each child to his or her fullest potential. Students gain the confidence needed to achieve success in academics, social development and emotional well-being.

The family like atmosphere,…read morethe friendly staff and teachers, not to mention the absolutely great education your kids receive make this everything we could have dreamed of in a school. When we did our tour several years back we were amazed by the friendly teachers and how well the students responded to them. It was like the students didn't want to disappoint their teacher. They respected their teachers and that was what really sold us on the school. If you are on the fence I invite you to call and setup a tour of the school. Give them 30 minutes of your time and you'll walk away impressed!

We absolutely love Newcomb! My son started here as a 1 year old. It's much more than just watching…read moreyour child. They teach the kids songs, science, social skills, arts and crafts, counting, alphabet, potty training, communication, gardening, etc. Child development students from the University also help put on a Mardi Gras party and a Halloween party each year. This is a Tulane University daycare but there are spots available to the community. Get on the waitlist early, like in pregnancy if possible! Newcomb has been open since 1926 and their commitment to your kids has quite a history. It's a "Class A" daycare. Parents are very hand's on. Teachers are sweet and caring. Ms. Deidre rode with my son to Children's Hospital in an ambulance when he had a febrile seizure at school. I rushed to the ER to find them being rolled in, Deidre sitting on the gurney holding my poor sick baby. Will never forget that act of kindness! It really is a second family/home for your kid. Buggy rides, water play, Ms. Karen's cooking....! The list goes on and on! Highly recommend!

Newcomb Children's Center is not even in the category of bad. I am so happy my daughter got a chance for a spot at NCC when she turned 2 years old and had issues at another place we went to before NCC. People who work here are selfless and hard working people keeping this place running and doing so with so much love and professionalism. Since day one they made my baby and (what is very important) me feel secure and safe. They have activities scheduled for kids for every hour of the day. They learn so much while they play! Ms. Debbie is amazing as well as ms. Julie and all other teachers and staff. Ms. Debbie knows all the kids by name, very attentive to each and every person who step into the building. My baby's development went up as soon as she started going to NcC. She loves going there and doesn't want to leave...if you would know the situation we were with our old daycare you would understand how big of a difference it makes. I can go work without feeling scared for her well being or guilty for leaving at place she doesn't like. My daughter adores her new school and we couldn't be happier she is there. I wish she could stay there until she is 7 yo! They always clean the spaces, beds, sheets and toys, especially when there has been virus going around. Communication between teachers, staff and parents are excellent as well. Lots of projects and events during school year. I wish to find similar place when we have to leave NCC.
