I'm a super protective and particular mom when it comes to who I let around my children. I know that their 3 first years of life are vital in shaping and determining what kind of person they are going to be when they grow up and that is why I chose A Sunny Start Preschool. My boys have been attending since May, 2018. I don't have one negative thing to say about this child care center. The administration and teachers are the most kindhearted and dedicated humans with the upmost attention to detail. Their creativity and work ethic in the classroom, behind the scenes with curriculum, and in the administration office is exceptional. They are the cleanest, most organized, modern, and structured school that I've witnessed for myself and I used to work in the early childhood education field. They provide healthy breakfast, lunch, and snacks and pay close attention to allergies which was huge for me. We've had the blessing to progress through three classrooms at this time and each teacher has become family to my children. They care and love for my boys and show genuine concern for their success and their needs. My kinds run and hug their teachers and the connection and safety they feel there as little humans with such caring adults is irreplaceable. Even before turning one, my boys have received extensive and age appropriate curriculum and have thrived off of their routine and structure at school. I feel like their communication is remarkable and issues, though few, have always been addressed with respect and in a caring manner with the consideration of the children's best interest in mind and solution oriented. They use and app to update parents with pictures, updates about meals, items needed, and a summary of what the children learned that day. I'm so impressed and thankful for the creative and hands on activities they come up with, the real life lessons and friendships they instill in our kids, their well organized events and celebrations, and the way they keep the parents involved and uThe director is in tune, involved, and genuinely cares about the progress and initiative my children have shown. I've never felt more heard or cared about as a parent. Overall, the entire team is so welcoming and are a joy to see everyday. My children are thriving, happy, and absolutely love going to school. read more

When my daughter was 6 months old, I went to check out Sunny Start Pre-School. I immediately knew this was the place for her when I was greeted by the infant teacher with a big smile. All the children in the school looked happy and all the classrooms were EXCEPTIONALLY clean and cared for. Four years later, my little girl is about to start VPK at this amazing school. I am heartbroken because she only has one year left here. In this bilingual environment, my daughter learned to sing the ABCs by the time she was 14 months old. She learned her colors and shapes before she was 2. Around 22 months, the teachers were fully invested in helping me get her potty-trained. And around 3 years old, my little girl was learning to write the letters of her name. This school definitely deserves the title "preschool" versus daycare. The teachers and director, Jennifer, make it each moment the students are with them valuable. Students not only excel in academic endeavors, but they are taught respect, good manners, and how to solve conflicts between each other. I credit Sunny Start for fostering a love for learning in my daughter. I feel privileged to have her surrounded by outstanding educators. As for the commentary below, I am shocked that this issue occurred. I have experienced nothing but the opposite. My daughters (I have two now currently in the school) are not criers regularly, but there have been occasions where they've cried. I have always felt that the teachers have done a good job of distracting them. They have never given me a difficult time to drop them off and, in fact, are always excited when we arrive to school. Jennifer is EXTREMELY responsive to parental concerns. I have expressed concern for some behavioral issues in my oldest child. We have worked together to find the root of all the issues and are constantly communicating back and forth with each other and her classroom teacher. My youngest has bitten other children and been bitten by other children (a normal developmental issue) and the teachers are always clear about what happened without putting the confidentiality of the other child at risk. I really cannot give this school enough praise. The teachers have become near and dear to my heart. read more

Recently, my wife and I had a meeting with our daughter's Kindergarten teacher. She informed us that our daughter is like a sponge with a thirst for learning and that the school would be testing her for gifted! We are so impressed and excited by her academic success. I attribute her knowledge and attitude towards school to the years she spent growing and learning at A Sunny Start Preschool. They always found a way to make learning fun for my daughter, which I think is so important. Think about it, if you feed someone bland vegetables everyday then they won't like them, but if you season them and present them the right way, they will always want more. That is what A Sunny Start Preschool does, they season their teaching with a lot of fun activities and make everything exciting for the kids instead of burning them out and drilling them at such a young age. Another thing I love about the preschool is the smell. I have been to both schools and it always smells so clean. I do work for many small businesses and I can tell you that the way they clean at A Sunny Start Preschool makes all of the difference in the world. I always felt like my daughter was being left in the best place every time I dropped her off. I recommend this school with my eyes closed. My daughter can't wait to go back for Summer Camp! read more

After a difficult and disappointing experience with a previous daycare that left my daughter feeling anxious and withdrawn, I was relieved to see the drastic transformation when I enrolled her in Cadence. My daughter had grown extremely resistant to school, and I was worried it would be difficult for her to adapt and acclimate to school again. Fortunately, due to the warm nurturing environment at Cadence, she quickly started to love school again. I truly credit the amazing teachers and staff that restored my daughter's trust in school: Ms. Walky, Ms. Ana, Ms. Milly, Ms. Angela, and Ms. Beatriz, Ms. Lourdes, and Ms. Yesenia. Their patience, dedication, and kindness are unmatched. They ensure the children have fun creative themed days and special events that keep the children excited and engaged. Cadence also offers the children an opportunity to participate in extracurricular activities like piano, playball, and ballet during the school day, which is extremely convenient for me and fun for my daughter. I wholeheartedly recommend Cadence Academy to any parent looking for a daycare that truly cares. The peace of mind, the loving atmosphere, and the joy it brings to my daughter are truly priceless. Enrolling Charlize here has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. read more

A Sunny Start Preschool is beyond amazing. My oldest who is 9 now went there and my younger son is now going there. The teachers have been and still are amazing with the kids. The patience and love they have for the kids its just amazing. They treat them with respect and care like if they were there own. My son that goes there now is excited every morning when he gets there. I've never seen him like school like this before. My oldest when he went there was the same way. I am very thankful to this school for teaching my kids a lot. My oldest went into Kindergarten knowing his numbers (1*100), how to read and do Math. The VPK program that they have is exactly where you want to put your kids in for when they get to Elementary school they are very well prepared. My sons school was like WOW he knows so much. My youngest is heading down the same road. Hes turning 3 now and knows his colors, ABC, shapes and how to count to 15. The owner is always very involved with the school and all the activities. She makes sure that kids learn and have fun while there doing it. Milly is currently my sons teacher now and was my oldest VPK teachers and she is AWESOMEEEE!!!. We love everyone there. read more

I recommended A Sunny Start Preschool to all whom have children from birth to 6 & more if they would take older. I am a proud mother of very bright and advance children thanks to the tutelage of Teacher Carmen (VPK), Millie (PK3), Angela (PK2) & Esperanza (PK1) & Sofia (infants). As you can see I have had an experience with every level of teacher in the school. All four of my children attended the school and my last two babies have attended the school since new ownership. I have a Kindergarten boy which I am proud to say is in K- 1 in his school. For those who do not know what K-1 is this is where Kindergarten students are also being taught with 1st graders. My four year old is still at A sunny Start Preschool and she is extremely bright. The curriculum in her class is incredibly advanced and even thou I hate the homework she is always excited and eager to do it. She can identify words and knows her numbers this also has to do with the fact she loves her school. All this and she has not yet started VPK because of her birthday, but she will be starting come this school year. Thank you Jennifer, Carmen, Millie, Angela, Esperanza, Sofia & Tatiana you guys are the best. read more

Choosing this school for my 1yr old was easy to pick compare to the other schools around the area. Barby, the Director gave me a tour towards the end of the day. I was very impressed by how clean and organized everything was, how the teachers were still very enthusiastic towards the end of their shift, and how cute it was seeing other kids hugging Barby as they were ready to go home! I felt like this was staged as part of the tour LOL! Seriously, this place is awesome. From Yohanna, the Program Director being so kind to my family and so patient with me, to the teachers being so attentive and loving to my little one. (Side note, teachers if you're reading this, thank you so much for taking care of my baby. You have no idea how appreciative I am). As a new mother, I feel so comfortable having my son attending this school. If all my friends lived around this area, I would tell them to enroll their little ones here. No questions. I highly recommend! ASSP, thank you for always having fun daily activities for all the kids.They love it and they learn so much from it. read more

Let me start saying that this school and all A Sunny Start Preschools are under Great management and you are able to notice from the first visit. I have my two little kids there since they were 7 months old and Jennifer Vazquez, the owner Is just the best. You can notice she has experience since your first visit to her schools. Everything clean, quite, organized, walls with students projects, teacher's appreciation walls, they have all tools a toddler may need, month menu updated all the time, sheets for you to buy it as well as book bags with school logo. Their uniform is jus the cuter think ever. They have an app were they post your toddler's pictures as well as the report from the day. But the best is that they always listen to their parents when having a concern and they take action immediately if needed. My older kid is in in VPK this year and he has learned so much already. He is ready to read. I'm so thankful I found this school and to Jenifer for bringing her knowledge to the community. read more

My boys have been attending Sunny Start for 2 years now! They started in the 4 year old class and the 2 year old class. I have found all of the teachers to be so warm and welcoming--and truly loving. They both have learned SO much during their time at Sunny Start, and with it being one of the more affordable options we explored for them, we couldn't be more pleased. My youngest loves to be a "helper" in the morning and, instead of dismissing him, the office staff and his teacher are always very patient with him and find him various jobs to allow him to feel helpful. I appreciate that all the meals are included in the tuition--as a busy mom, that is one less thing for me to have to think about. While the building itself is small and the layout a bit odd (having to go through classrooms to get to others), the teachers do an amazing job of keeping their classrooms organized and the children engaged. We love Sunny Start so much and have had a great experience! read more

My kids attending a sunny start preschool has been nothing but a good experience. I have four children, which have all attended this preschool starting from when they were babies all the way through graduation. The most comforting feeling is to know that your kids are being well taken care of. Not to mention, being well educated at the same time. Their acedemic program aided my kids to have a much easier transition into kindergarten. As a parent, starting your morning knowing that your children are happy and excited to go to school puts your mind at ease. The staff is very professional, but at the same token so family oriented that it makes the kids feel like they are at home. Another great quality in a sunny start preschool is the nutritional menu they have to offer, not worrying about having to pack healthy lunch,snacks and drinks is a big plus. I strongly recommend a sunny start preschool. read more

A Sunny Start preschool is a fabulous school. I have two grand kids that one was there from 1-5 years old and his brother is now there as well. Mason M is always so happy t be at this school. Whenever I have picked him up, I can see the love that the administration and teachers have for him. They all say bye and hug him. Even the other kids have a very nice respectful relationship by saying bye and hugging him. The staff is super respectful and has even answered questions when I've asked them. The teachers inform of you of how his day went and how much he ate or what he ate. The kids have an amazing playground that is covered and there's cameras watching in every angle to make sure nothing goes on. I am very happy that my daughter and son-in-law have my youngest grandson and had the oldest grandson there in that school. I would highly recommend A Sunny Start preschool to anyone. read more

We were looking for a perfect place to send our three children when we were very fortunate to have found A Sunny Start Preschool. Excellent place full of caring teachers, High staff to student ratio, and every one of those staff clearly care deeply about the kids. I received email daily with every detail about the activities, meal, and even pictures. My daughter recently graduated VPK and right now she is top of her kindergarten class. My little one started A Sunny Start when he was only 2 months, and even though it was hard for me to leave him I knew he was going to be in good hands. I am very fortunate to be a part of A Sunny Start family, and I could not be more grateful to Jenny, Tatiana and their staff for everything they have done for my family. I would definitely recommend this preschool, sending my child to this preschool was the best decision I have ever made. read more

I highly recommend A sunny Start school! My son started when he was just 10 months old. In my search for a daycare for my baby I wanted the best and thank God I found them.

Being bilingual For my family is important and I love this. My baby love his daycare and his teachers read more

A Sunny Start Preschool has been one of the greatest decisions my husband and I have made. From the moment I walked in, I felt it was the right place to put my daughter in. The communication is outstanding. Emails are sent daily about upcoming events, reminder, etc. If you email the director, Jennifer, or assistant director, Tatiana, you can be sure you will get a prompt response. You even get daily reports on what your child ate, activities for the week, and you even get pictures! My daughter has been there since she was one and is now three. She has grown socially, emotionally, and academically. Jennifer,Tatiana, and the teachers make a wonderful team and come up with fun learning activities and curriculum for the kids. Most importantly, my daughter loves going to school. So thank you A Sunny Start Preschool for your dedication and support! read more

My 5 year old daughter Hazel has attended A Sunny Start Preschool since she was two and she loves it. The teachers and staff always look happy to be working there. I'm a teacher as well so I expect a lot from a school and this school has surpassed my expectations. I'm at peace when I drop her off. One of the best things is the app that the school uses called Tadpoles. With Tadpoles the school sends me daily reports, pictures, videos, and so much more. Nothing is better than receiving a picture or video in the middle of my work day. Now my daughter is graduating VPK and my younger daughter will be attending in August. My favorite teacher is Ms. Gigi. She's the best and my daughter loves her. A Sunny Start Preschool is a blessing and I know my little one will love it too when she starts soon. Great school! :) read more

I would recommend this school to any parent searching for a preschool with an excellent curriculum. My daughter is 7 years old and attended this preschool. After graduating from Pre K she tested advanced at her current Charter elementary school. Her teachers were impressed at her knowledge and how advanced her reading was. This school helped her read and went over all the subjects she needed to prepare her for Elementary. She recently tested for gifted this year by MDCPS. This was all due to the foundation she received here. The teachers are amazing and caring. Two of my friends that had their children here also tested for gifted. I am so happy with the school, the curriculum, the teachers, and the staff and now my son currently attends A Sunny Start Preschool. I would not go anywhere else. read more

This place is AMAZING!! They are warm, sympathetic and loving. I recommend this preschool to all parents that truly care about the ambience their first time schoolers are in! My daughter is very attached to her family ambience and as usual there was a short transition period but her teacher was so loving and caring that my daughter looked forward to seeing her in school. They are also great potty training partners. My daughter has learned so much AND they are teaching her ASL!! I'm a very hands on Mom and any small concern I've had has been treated accordingly. I can tell the school's curriculum is planned carefully and with a lot of thought. I LOVE this place and wish it would expand through 8th grade!! Xoxo read more

A Sunny Start preschool is an amazing place to enroll your child. My son started when he was two years old and he has learned so much in the two years that he has been there. Within the first few weeks of him being there he was learning words, singing songs and playing with puzzles. The school is always meticulously cleaned and I LOVE having the ability to check the app during the day for pictures and once he is picked up to see his daily report. They help with potty training which was a HUGE deal to my husband and I. The meals provided are always healthy and delicious and overall just a great space to leave your child. The teachers and staff are so caring and attentive to all the children's needs. read more
