The staff is wonderful. They take the time to know your child and help them in areas that they struggle. Among many things that are good it's wonderful to be able to participate in helper days.

It's a great environment for children and parents.

We love the Co-Op Nursery school! My now-kindergartener started there at 15 months in their…read moreparent-tot class which was a great way for us to get out of the house for some fun activities and meet other local families since we were new to the area. He then went through their other classes - 2-year old, 3-day, and PreK. He is now doing great in Kindergarten and loves school and I feel that the Co-Op is a big reason why. My three-year old now goes to the Tuesday/Thursday class from 9 to 11 am and his teachers are wonderful - patient and caring and they are so dedicated to helping the kids participate in a lot of fun and educational activities. My 15-month old will start soon with the parent-tot class also. It is so fun to watch the little ones interact with each other and explore the activities and toys in the room. Since it is a Co-Op, you have the opportunity to participate in your child's education by being the third grown-up in the classroom once every 6 to 8 weeks. (Except for parent-tot where you stay each week.) If you work or otherwise are not able to be in the classroom, there is an option that the school can provide an aide. (Just costs a little bit more.) All of the staff are very special and so great with the kids! (And they often have good parenting advice too!)

I met with the director, Mrs. Yunuen and felt an immediate sense of relief. She took her time explaining every aspect of the services offered at this location. Without hesitation, she answered all my questions and offered assistance with all of the intake procedures. After the smooth enrollment process, my son began services and since then has been thriving! I truly believe this is thanks to Mrs. Yunuen and her abilities to facilitate comfort, communication, professionalism,, understanding, and so much more.

We got regular updates on what the kids were doing. I really appreciated the proactive approach that the Director took to keep everyone healthy during cold and flu season by limiting visitors and exposure opportunities too.

My little one just started school with her older siblings and was so well prepared and eager to be off to a "big school" after her year at Creative Day.

They have a ton of field trips and exciting activities. In fact, I am trying to take off a morning of work to be a chaperone for their "Rainforest Cafe" field trip. My an loves this place and the security is awesome. No one can enter unless you ring in on the video phone. Sweet and safe. The only reason I am giving it one less than 5 stars is because uveal ready noticed there may be issues with challenging students who are a little ahead. This is important to see where the needs are. I understand they keep costs lower by only doing toddlers to kindergarten but the fewer teachers still need to see where certain students may need more. For the price, it is by far fantastic and I highly recommend it.
