I have learned so much as an early child educator from the teacher mentors I have met along the way. As an employee I feel supported by management and my coworkers. I have had the joy and pleasure to be in the lives of some fantastic kids and families. Anyone looking to work in the early education field should consider a career at NGCC Andover.

This transition was tough for him and myself as he had a horrible ending to his last daycare. I initially got a gut feeling when I toured which is why I chose it. I was overjoyed and pleasantly surprised with how consistently happy/friendly/caring the staff are day after day. I truly feel that my son is loved there everyday by all the teachers and management not just his primary teachers. And the management team appears flawless/kind and a pleasure to work with! I could go on but truly we LOVE it here that sums it up!

Our son has been going to Knowledge Beginnings for just about a year now. We moved him from Bright…read moreHorizons Seaport - Boston (which I had chosen from hundreds of centers in the Boston area, I researched for months, visited dozens of centers- I put in the work to find the very best) to this center pretty quickly. We had bought a new home faster than expected so I wasn't able to research as much this time around. The price difference made me worrisome at first (you get what you pay for they say) and going from $3600 a month to more like $1800 maybe we wonder. Yes, I know everything is more expensive in the city but when you live there for 10+ years some things stick with you. Needless to say I was unbelievably lucky!! This was so much better. Yes better!!! The teachers he had as an infant (Lindsay, Amanda, and Justine) were everything. I could feel how much they adored him in no time at all. I had always felt he was in safe hands in Boston but here he was loved. The class sizes are wonderful. The rooms are set up great. The projects they do are creative. He learns so much. Fast forward to COVID-19- the daycare was closed for 100 days going back was scary because my son would be in a new room with new teachers and new schedule. Andrea the Asst Director reached out personally (as in directly to me, not a generic mass email) to answer ALL my questions/concerns. My son has food allergies and they all know I worry like crazy about him but they never judge my crazy, they calm me down by giving me all the answers I need. Things are different now not being able to pop in the class to see how he's doing and having to drop off him off at the door, but when I bring him in and his arms reach out for them I know they are doing everything right. For a shy child to be so sure about someone you just know they are treating him the way you would. His new teachers have taught him so much. He brings home amazing art work, I get photos and videos daily, and reports on what he eats, when he naps.. everything. I brought him to a gymnastics class where he was the best behaved toddler there. He knew how to get in line, wait his turn, play along with others and mirror the teacher. These are not things he learns at home as an only child. This is the doing of his amazing teachers!! I would recommend this center a 1000 times over. I trust them with my heart every day and I never worry. Its his second family and they are the very best!

Ms Jojo and Ms Victoria are so kind and let him take the time he needs to get comfortable with a new activity or environment. They really care about his well-being and strive to make sure he is having a good experience everyday. He has been in a couple of different classrooms and each one has been great! He loves all his teachers and talks about them all the time. The curriculum is also great. My son has learned so much and always tells me about the new things he learned and all the different activities he participated in. The administration is also amazing. They keep us informed with what is going on , organize after school family activities and fundraise for the make-a-wish foundation! They are the kindest people you will meet and truly love every kid that is in their care.

There is something wrong with this daycare. My child has been there for over a year and I have seen…read morethe center director Mirabel raise concerns to various parents that their child has problems developing and recommended speech therapy or special needs to several parents so far. I don't think so many parents or children need that kind of help. Be suspicious of this. I do see some of these teachers in their classroom don't have good enough training to encourage your child or know what to say to teach your child to express or lead them through it. That learning and language development comes from good teachers and a good school. I don't see the teachers doing enough of that here. The preschool rooms are overloaded with children that the teacher:student ratio isn't kept within reason throughout the day so each child doesn't get the attention they need or deserve. Be careful with this daycare as they will try to play games with your child and label them as 'slow' at some point. I don't know the reason behind it, but it seems they are trying to push out current families out to let new families in so as to pretend to be sweet to the newer families and feel good about themselves while treating the current families with disrespect. Either way, don't believe what the director says here as most of it she tries to spin her own drama.

I have been a part of the Little Treasures family since 2004...both as a parent and as a…read moreteacher/administrator. As a parent, there is no where else I would have wanted my kids to develop their educations. When they went on to elementary school (in another town), I was asked (by their teachers) where they went to preschool/pre-K. I was told that they were more prepared than most of the other children in their class. Amazing! As a teacher/administrator, there is no where else I would want to work. I am the music teacher (for all 3 locations) and the after school and vacation program director. The home-like atmosphere provided at LTS is true and organic. While still professional, the teachers and administrators at LTS are intelligent, loving, kind, generous, honest, trustworthy, dependable, fun and just plain old nice! The 3 locations are all different and amazing in their own right. The programs offered at each location are well-planned, consistent, engaging and constructive. If you are looking for a positive learning experience for your child, please check out Little Treasures in Reading, Lynnfield or North Reading.

It should be noted that the person who wrote the first review made a judgment based on one tour, not on the firsthand experience of sending a child there.
