As parents, we enrolled our child at Celebration Center because of its Christian foundation and the…read morepromise of a school that partners with families in raising and educating children. The kindergarten year was great. 1st grade, however, well, lets just say, recent events have shown us that this school does not practice what it preaches. Without detailed communication or parental consent, Celebration brought in a guest speaker from Committing to 16 -- someone with no formal training in early childhood education -- to speak to a class of 6-year-olds. Even worse, the speaker contradicted her own organization's message ["Committing to 16 is designed to help prevent mental health issues that come with social media use in kids and teens by avoiding social media usage until 16..." ] by encouraging kids to stay on social media... at six years old! How is that in line with Christian values or healthy child development? C'mon Nurse Kelli - make it sound right. And that's just grazing the top layer of their presentation slides... there's more than social media. How about, vaping, sexual touching? Yeah, that. Even public schools have consents toward subjects spoken on that subject. We're raising our child in a very intentional and supervised way. No sleepovers. No random adults without us present. No unsupervised screen time -- ever. Every minute of his exposure to media is something we explain and walk him through. So, to find out that Celebration assumed all children were on the same path and delivered such content without consent? Completely unacceptable. When my wife addressed the issue in person, she was met with dismissive body language and zero accountability. From what I gathered, they didn't seem to think they did anything wrong -- or perhaps they just labeled us as "overprotective parents." Let me be clear: We may be the first to speak up, but we are not alone. Other parents we've talked to were equally outraged. To top it off, our child has mentioned they often watch YouTube in class. If that's what we're paying thousands a year for, we could have stayed home and done that ourselves -- for free. Celebration Center claims to partner with parents, but in our experience, they make major decisions without transparency and then stand by them without reflection. We no longer trust the school's judgment, and we certainly don't feel they prioritize the well-being or innocence of the children in their care. If you're a parent looking for a school that truly respects and collaborates with families, think twice before enrolling here. They might say the right things, but their actions tell a different story.

I still remember my daughter crying every day when she first came here, but her teachers accompanied and enlightened her patiently.

I am really thankful to Ms Passionai, Angie and Vanessa, they have given a lot of love and patience to my daughter. I thank God for leading me and my daughter here and meeting all people here.

I have had my fair share of experiences with preschools with both of my daughters and we were so lucky to have found Ms. Nanette and Little Wonders Preschool.

What was even more impressive was when my daughter started Kindergarten and the fact that she was already ahead of the curriculum was amazing. It really showed how much she advanced due to being at Little Wonders....sight words, basic math, problem solving and science... I highly recommend Little Wonders Preschool!

Absolutely Exceptional - More Than Just a School…read more Year after year, this Montessori school continues to amaze our family. It is rare to find a place that balances rigorous academic excellence with such a genuine focus on character development and respect. We have watched our youngest (now 4) blossom here over the last two years. The growth in his education level is nothing short of outstanding--he is learning concepts I wouldn't have expected at his age, yet he is doing it with joy and curiosity. But beyond the academics, what impresses me most is the school's commitment to constantly bringing in new activities and enhancing the learning environment. They never settle; they are always finding ways to be better. A few amazing days of the year for you and the family: All the Holidays - The school ensures we celebrate holidays from across all cultures and life. Fathers' Night: An amazing way to connect their children with their fathers. One of the best moments I look forward to every year. I Mother Tea Time: Another amazing experience for the children to spend some quality academic and fun time with their moms. This standard of excellence isn't limited to just one teacher; it is consistent across the board. Every staff member, at every level, cares deeply about these children. If you are looking for a place that will truly invest in your child's future, this is it. We couldn't be happier.

My son has been…read morein a full time daycare setting since he was 11 months, and while he was learning many academics with his care provider, I wanted more. For me, it's not about how much academics a child knows entering into kindergarten, but their ability to function in a school setting. Miss Shanon provides excellent kindergarten readiness in a true, classroom setting. My son is being exposed to a wide variety of learning opportunities in a developmentally appropriate classroom setting. He understands what it means to go to school, and that school is where we go to learn (as opposed to nap and all other things daycare related ). He is learning how to follow instructions, how to follow a schedule, how to sit on the rug, and how to interact with his peers. From a teacher perspective, Miss Shanon is phenomenal. She is organized, professional, loving, knowledgeable, calm, approachable, the list goes on. She uses the open court curriculum, and I am impressed with how much my son knows. He is a young 3 year old, and knows his letters and sounds. He has excellent number sense. Every week, he is engaged in meaningful crafts, writing activities, and hands on activities. He sings songs and retells stories. I am always impressed with how much he is learning, and how happy he is. Miss Shanon organizes field trips and other fun events for the kids. Kids corner has far exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to many more experiences.

My 3 yr old was in a daycare center prior to Leah's for about a month and she cried EVERY day when I dropped her off and would say no one talked to her all day long. Day 2 at Leah's and no tears. She said Leah's is fun and everyone talks to her (which my child talks a lot and loves to engage in conversation) so this was a great fit. She also loves her friends and all the 3-4 year olds seem to get along pretty well!
