Ms. Gloria is like a 2nd Aunt to my son (Id use Grandmother for reference but she is so young in spirit, I feel Aunt is more appropriate). My kiddo sometimes has a tough time in the morning with separation anxiety and anytime he is upset, she jumps right in and holds his hand and sings with him until he is all better! You could not ask for a better care provider to watch over your precious little one in my opinion!

Our daughter started just under a year ago with House of Children. She was in and out of in home…read moreday care since birth. We decided to make the change from in home to House of Children quickly. I didn't know much about House of Children, due to quick transition. Since our daughter has been there, we are very satisfied with House of Children. The staff is amazing with all the children, if it's group effort or individual one on one time. Any questions we have they answer right away, if not follow up with in the next day. Our daughter talks about her day and is excited about it. Anytime we asked her before House of Children, she would say she doesn't remember or she doesn't 't know. Now, she talks about what she ate or what she did outside or the art projects she made and the books she read. This shows she is learning and excited about being there. Because we are comfortable and know our daughter will have a great education for kindergarten, we have decided to keep her there for Kindergarten instead of attending the local school. We are very satisfied with House of Children and would recommend to anyone!

This is actually a pretty nice facility. Our group was here for a 2-day camp event. There are…read moreseveral rooms: main room has spring loaded floors. There is also a dance/ballet room (with mirrors), and a side room with hardwood floors (no mirrors though). The sound system wasn't that great in the side room (a small boombox). But there was a good system in the main rooms. I didn't have much interaction with the staff, however they seemed pretty nice on both days.

Are you looking for a preschool for your little one? LOOK NO FURTHER! Just register, you won't…read moreregret it. I researched all the local preschools from Barrington to Crystal Lake and St Barnabas was the best decision I could have made for my son. Immediately I felt at ease when talking with the director Kathy. She spent a lot of time talking with me and answering my questions (first timer with a lot). She was more than happy to show me around the school as well (it was summer time and they were closed). My son has febrile seizures so I also needed to put him someplace where I felt comfortable but also where they felt comfortable having a child there that this could possibly occur on their watch (lucky not to date). This was the place that made me feel most comfortable with his seizure disorder! My son is now in his second year of preschool and my youngest is already registered for next year to start in the 3T's program. It makes me so happy to see how my son looks forward to going to school each day. He has learned SO MUCH! He constantly comes home singing or telling me something that he's learned that day and it amazes me! But I love St Barnabas for the culture. The school environment is SO LOVING! It's like dropping him off with family. I know each time I leave he is in great hands. The staff have worked together for years and you can tell they all love what they do! What more could you want for in a preschool? This is the one! I know some have asked about the religious aspect in the school. Even if your NOT religious it's OK to still have your child attend preschool here. Religion is not forced upon you there. Yes it's faith based and my son can now tell me about Jesus and say prayers. It's not excessive. He tells me more about the months of the year and the days of the week.

I had issues with the cleaniness, introverted teachers toward parents, and the drives were longer than I wanted. August 2017 I heard from my sister to try out Barrington Community Childcare Center. I had a tour, I spoke with Mrs. Terri and the infant room teachers and I instantly felt welcomed, safe, and pleased with the place so I instantly signed her up and she began her journey at BCCC at 15 months old. Beyond words these kind, loving, and compassionate teachers and assistant teachers have helped my daughter prepare and enjoy school so easily that she is excited to be in Pre-K and she is so smart I owe it all the Mrs. Terri and her teachers. If you are a single mom, a stay at home mom/dad trying to find a place for your child so you can go back to work, or parents concerned of the place your childs at now and do not feel like you can trust any place again, I recommend BCCC in Barrington. I been there for so long they are my daughters second family. She loves her new school but tells me she will go back to BCCC this summer. "You got it Airianna, you already miss them don't you?" Terri, Jean, Erin, Brianne, Samantha, Julie, Anna, Ashley, Lisa, Tatianna, Shabria, Melinda, Thank you for everything you have done for myself and Airianna.
