She is exited to start her day when we drop her off. The teachers are all professional, friendly, and caring to the children. We receive photos of her throughout the day and lots of artwork, which we love! They have done an excellent job keeping kiddos and staff healthy/safe during the pandemic. Their staff has been receptive and compassionate whenever we have had any sort of concern. We recommend Kensington to all of our parent friends.

They may have once been a great establishment but that is no longer the case. They are not doing the same things they used to as far as enriching your children but they are still taking the same if not more tuition fees for non service. They also move the kids around from classroom to classroom so you may not be able to fond your child when you are picking them up at the end of the day.

I strongly and unequivocally disagree with the statement provided by the school. As a parent, my…read moreconcern is not only valid but supported by the seriousness of what occurred. This matter was significant enough to warrant involvement from DCFS, and a formal case was opened and documented as a violation. That alone directly contradicts any attempt to minimize or dismiss the situation. The claim that there is a "zero-tolerance policy" and that all children are consistently kept in a safe and nurturing environment does not align with my child's experience or the outcome of the investigation. Policies are only meaningful when they are properly enforced, and in this instance, there was a clear failure to uphold the standards that are being publicly promoted. I find it deeply concerning that the response avoids accountability and instead attempts to deflect by not addressing key details. As a parent, I trusted this facility with my child's safety, and that trust was compromised. The fact that this resulted in a documented DCFS violation speaks for itself. I am sharing this not to engage in conflict, but to ensure transparency and to emphasize that this situation was real, serious, and formally recognized by the appropriate authorities. Parents deserve full honesty when it comes to the safety and well-being of their children. CITATION- 407100A3 & 407100A10

I was so hesitant when I first had to leave my son but quickly realized what great hands I was leaving him in. They have always been so accommodating and communicate whenever there's an issue or concern. I love seeing how much my son has learned and give all the credit to the staff. We went and visited all the daycares in the area, and we just had such a good feeling about this place. Overall, an amazing daycare in St. Charles that I can't recommend enough!

My daughter is now 6 and returned just for summer on certain days and I can't get over how much unpleasantness you feel just from walking in here. This morning I literally said good morning and have a wonderful day to whoever was at the front with curly hair and she didn't even make a sound. The teacher also seems to be extremely sarcastic about anything with these school age kids room. I'm honestly going to reach out to their corporate because they have just declined and this was a daycare I raved about for years and sent many families too. Such a shame since they are so more expensive than most in the area.

I did my research on our area preschools (9+ schools) and ultimately decided to have Hosanna! as our preschool for many reasons. The school classrooms are large, filled with fun toys, treehouses, and interactive play. The teachers are the most loving and caring and truly know my daughter and let her personality shine. The director makes sure you know everything that is going on and the communication between parents and teachers is comforting. The preschool offers many activities for parents to join throughout the year, which have been very special moments. The outside playground is well kept and continues to grow with new activities added, like this year's Mud Kitchen! There is also a large indoor gym for when it's raining or too cold. The cost is average for the Elgin area and worth every penny! Our (almost) two years of preschool have been so enjoyable and my daughter has grown academically as well as socially/emotionally. She has made close friends and families have become close as well. Highly recommend you check out Hosanna! Preschool for your kiddos, you won't regret it!

Would rate it zero stars if I could, Director Mandy is horrible and should not be working with…read morechildren. She had a court order between my ex and I and would deliberately go against it. Doing things like calling my daughters father when somebody I approve to pick her up, literally just to inform him that I didn't pick her up from school on my scheduled time- but would allow her father and his approved list pick her up whenever they wanted including my parenting time early from school with no information to me. Allowed ex, and girlfriend to sign up for Parent teacher conference and did not inform me. Multiple conversations with the school telling them what was happening and asking them to give me communication about my daughters schooling and refusing to. I understand that it's not a preschool job to deal with parents, not getting along, but when they go out of their way to inform one parent about everything, the other parent is doing it seems very sketchy and untrustworthy. Not to mention they are aware that my ex was in serious Rehab for serious drug problem had had multiple order protections taken out on him, so I might be a difficult person, but I'm dealing with a lot from here at the preschool than nothing but make his abuse worse and enable him. As mentioned, the person who did all the shady things, was Mandy, the Director of the preschool
