    We used this place for 5 years and multiple kids. When picking a daycare multiple friends tried…read morescaring us out of this one simply because they had bad experiences with other Kindercare locations. However this place was incredible to us. The staff and our kids teachers became family. We only switched because our oldest went into elementary school and we had to find one closer to their school. You can't ask for a better place. They have online frequent updates, divided secure classrooms with lots of open windows and visibility, and set curriculum at every single age to advance your kids learning. Currently our oldest child is already at math and reading above her grade level and I credit the continued support this Kindercare provided us.

    I have one child that attends KinderCare NSL. She started when she was 8 months, and it was…read moreextremely hard to leave my little baby in the hands of strangers. Everyone there was so patient with me and listened to my crazy new momma questions and concerns. The whole process for us has been excellent and my child is now 2 and is flourishing here. The staff is incredible, they are saints and love my child. The infant room is fantastic, they are pros at baby care. My child is learning how to prep for prek and I have no doubt they will be ready. Every day I get multiple pictures and reports of their progress. I get their full eating, napping and planned activity schedule. When I pick up and drop my child off the staff is so happy to see us. The director is always available and is the kindness soul. I don't worry about my child when I drop them off because I know they are in good hands.

    My son has been coming to this daycare since he was 16 weeks old and for the past 3 years. His…read moreteacher greets and says good bye every times drop him off or pick him up. I get a friendly feeling from the staff and a general sense that my boy enjoys going here. I also don't know what the first reviewer is talking about. They have to shop several times a week just to keep the place stocked to feed all the kids. I've seen several times during different weeks where the workers were carrying milk crates of freshly purchased milk. They might have had this place mixed up for something else from what I can tell. This place has been crucial to my family during this work from home environment. Thank you Becky and your staff for all you do for the kids!

    I'm not sure what is going on with the previous reviewer's review. I have 2 kids at Apple and they…read morelove it. My 4 year old started 3 months ago with a very evident speech delay and a hatred of daycare in general (he was at a daycare in Sandy near my employer). He would scream and cry the entire day at the old daycare ALL day. We have not had one issue with him after his second day at Apple. He loves it and is excited to go to "school" everyday. His speech has noticeably improved to where our pediatrician has noticed and commented on the improvement. My 71/2 year old also loves it. She can go and not be relied on to calm her brother down. After reading this review I asked her about the staff finishing their lunches and giving them rotten milk. She said she hasn't seen that happen. I also asked her about the ear pulling and she has not seen that either. We have never been charged more than the contracted amount on our card and have quickly supplied the necessary receipts for childcare reimbursement. The building is a little older but I have seen MUCH much worse as more expensive daycare facilities. That's the only thing keeping them from a 5. All in all, my children are thriving here and they love the staff and I have personally never seen or heard from my kids about the incidents described by Marisol.

    Our daughter has been attending this school for the past month in the ages 2-3 classroom. She just…read moreturned 3. We love the school. I love that every new teacher is trained before they join a class, and so they are consistently able to meet each child at where the child is individually at a social, emotional, and intellectual level. I love that there are no time-outs, and there is plenty of positive reinforcement. The teachers are so kind, and full of empathy and compassion, that it takes any pressure off the kids and creates an environment of unconditional acceptance. Lacey and Paige and all the staff are simply wonderful with the kids. Our own daughter used to have meltdowns, and since she has come here, they have completely stopped. They respect that she doesn't like to be touched and doesn't like to have an audience while going potty. We know she is receiving individualized attention, because we see improvements daily. In under 3 weeks, she came home able to pronounce certain sounds that she struggled with - as a result, we were able to understand her better, which resulted in her being a lot calmer. The classrooms are full of natural light, and they have a sweet play area in the back with a play set and a sand box. There are plenty of sensory materials available. The children have access to various art media and materials also. Within the first month of school, they have used Play-Doh to build habitats for animals in the grasslands, they've made animal footprints using plaster (assisted by their teacher, of course), have painted with watercolors while listening to music, drawn self-portraits by looking into mirrors, and have made multimedia seashell and sand collages, among other things. The art is not constrained and Pinterest-worthy - instead, experiences are aimed at helping children learn how to use various media and work around a theme to create their own stuff. The kids also have music and dancing time. The children get a fair balance of outdoor free-play, indoor free-play, and teacher directed activities. There's a fair amount of imaginative play involved. While the curriculum is not rigorously academic (i.e. your child will not learn to write all the letters of the alphabet in week 1 of school as a 2-or-3-year-old), there is a focus on cultivating scientific thinking and curiosity, and they are equipping the kids with skills necessary to excel at Math. It's a child-led Reggio Emilio school. They make sure social skills are incorporated into learning experiences. Last month, for instance, the kids built an airplane for the class to sit in and took turns "flying" the plane. They also hosted their own market with fake money and products, and took turns buying and selling goods and returning change to customers. They have been building habitats for the African grassland animals they learned about. They have been measuring object sizes and lengths. There is art incorporated into their Science lessons. Among other social skills, the kids also clean-up after meals, wiping down the tables and sweeping up crumbs. They fold away their bedding and put it away after nap time. My daughter has come home so proud and confident that she can help around the home and contribute these things. The teacher also has conversations with the kids during lunch, which is so crucial - to be able to listen, and take turns speaking at dinner. The snacks provided are nutritious, diverse, and not junk food (apricots, cheese, turkey, crackers, fruit, a variety of vegetables and hummus, etc.). I love that they have an app that the teacher uses to provide periodic information about what the kids ate, how long they napped, and activities they did. They also upload pictures and videos. The teacher fills in updates when the kids are asleep or during post-meal cleanup. So while the kids are awake, they have her complete attention. The updates are helpful, because as working parents, we know if our child hasn't eaten or we know if a nap wasn't taken, and can accordingly provision for it. It's also reassuring to check in on my kid when I am on my lunch break. The drop-off and pickup timings are very generous. We can have afford to have a slightly late day at work without having to stress about pickup. The school has far fewer days off than most of the other local schools - so I don't have to worry about arranging childcare for non-school days. Given the small class sizes, trained teachers, the Reggio Emilio approach and curriculum, convenient hours, limited holidays, and individualized attention, this preschool provides full value to its students and parents. We had come here after having our older child at a wonderful school that set the bar really high. And we love the Second Avenues Preschool just as much, if not more. Thank you for providing such a wonderful space where our child feels loved and accepted, and where she has been able to flourish and thrive. You are wonderful.

    My daughter has gone to this preschool since she was 18 months old (she's almost 4 now). The old…read morestaff was great. Since hiring a new Director (Lacey) the turnover seems high and the teachers being hired appear to be unqualified and incapable of handling the amount of children in their classes. A couple months ago my husband and I were informed that our child was hitting and spitting in class- my kids teacher and Lacey the Director stated that this behavior had been going on for an ENTIRE YEAR without the daycare informing us- a complete lack of professionalism and communication. Needless to say, we all decided that it was best to part ways. This was a horrible experience to say the least.
