She is already trying to sound out words and just today was explaining to me what a blend was. She is also extremely social and she has plenty of opportunities for play and interaction with other kids to fill that need. The two teachers she has had have been nothing short of amazing and I have nothing but positive things to say about them. I have recommended this school to countless friends and am planning on enrolling my younger daughter when she is old enough. So grateful this school was recommended to me 2 years ago. Send your children here, you will not be disappointed!

This is our 4th year at Holy Redeemer and are so grateful we found this community! I heard many…read moregreat things prior to applying and felt the sense of camaraderie from our first interactions. Our daughter's Kindergarten year was so amazing we enrolled our other child there as well. Their personalities are quite different, but each has been supported in the way they needed and have thrived. The staff seem to love what they do, which shows in the way the carry themselves, their creativity, but most of all, their commitment to the students. When the COVID-19 Pandemic started, it became clear their commitment and standards were WAY above others. The level of detail, leadership, immense planning, investment in equipment, and willingness to consider suggestions from parents has been immeasurable. I honestly don't know how our family could have gotten through the last year without the supports received from school staff AND other families. It takes a village and they've proven themselves worthy. Their before and aftercare staff have become extended family. For us, with no family here locally, this has been the icing on the cake. As difficult as 2020-2021 has been, I'll always have fond memories for their vision, perseverance, creativity, and dedication to their students. Not to mention the diversity, learning opportunities, and amazing music and art staff! They're one of a kind and have had such an impact on so many. I'm proud our children are Holy Redeemer Wildcats and strongly encourage you to consider them. And one last thing. Their principle, Mrs. McPheeters, has been a breath of fresh air. Her inaugural year as principle threw more curveballs than I can count. While I know it's had to be stressful, she's never shown it. Her leadership, what seems to be unshakable faith, and deep roots to the community have made her the perfect fit during these unprecedented times.

We have been at Kidspace for two yes. I've been holding off on writing a review because there are…read moreno words I could write to accurately describe the level of care, compassion, thoughtfulness, curiosity, and love for learning that exudes every inch of this school. My kid asks to go to school almost every day. My mind is at ease at drop off off, and when I pick her up, she is usually beaming about what they did in school that day. As a bonus, she has made several great friends. In my personal experience in observing many preschools and interacting with their children and staff as part of my job, many are just meeting the basic needs. Yes, the children are usually safe. But are they engaged? Educated thoughtfully? Do they feel like part of the school family? Do YOU? At Kidspace they are and you will! Kidspace is magical and a revelation. ALL children should have the opportunity to attend a preschool THIS GOOD! The owner is also actively exploring bringing back the Kindergarten program starting in the 2023-2024 school year! Check them out!

Both of my children attended Kidspace starting at 3 years old and it really felt like home to us until they moved to Kindergarten. They got a great start to their learning life and with this solid foundation have become vibrant inquisitive learners who enjoy school, reading and being in Nature. My kids loved the Nature School component of Kidspace too! Nothing beats being in the woods & climbing trees as part of their play based curriculum.

Teachers Kim, Annemarie, and Danny are loving, experienced, and do an incredible job helping preschoolers navigate friendships and relationships to find their voice, which I didn't realize was something I should be looking for in a preschool until I saw it happening. Our daughter was a very slow-to-warm-up kid and had never been in a group care setting before so I worried about her ability to separate when it came time for preschool. The teachers helped her through her initial nervousness with endless patience and warmth, and 2 years later she's a confident, kind, collaborative kid who is SO ready for kindergarten. I truly credit Willow Tree for that. We will miss this place deeply and can't wait for our youngest to join when she's 3!

Their philosophy of child led learning and socializing is a perfect fit for our child. The director and teachers are always available and are in regular communications with us about how we can best help our kid overcome problems, enhance his learning, and work through some of this big childhood emotions. We know our kid is growing fast, and when we can't be there, we are so glad that Childroots can be.
