They have a room for kids 3yrs and younger and a room for older kids but they merge all of the kids throughout the day to play as a group. They have a playground and the day is structured with lots of activities. My daughter loves it here and she loves her teachers. I highly recommend Building Blocks to all families in search of child day care. I'm a huge fan!

This happened at Stork's Nest Child Academy in Smithfield. My daughter absolutely loved her teachers Miss Victoria and Miss Jessica! She loved going to school and could not wait to see them and her friends. They did wonderful activities and my daughter never wanted to go home or leave early. She learned so much. Miss Celina the director is very knowledgeable and always got back to me right away. Amazing program!

Best daycare experience! All the teachers love the children in their classroom like their own and I…read morefelt like each teacher had their own special connection with my child. Ms. Lori and Ms. Michele took such good care of my son, I truly feel I could not repay them for piece of mind they gave me. After moving out of state, and now experiencing other daycare, I truly can appreciate how wonderful of a place storks Nest is! The teachers continually work each day in the same classroom so that the children see the same faces each day. They can tell you exactly how your child's day went from start to finish because they pay such great attention to the children in their class. My son came home with new words, songs and signs language daily (started daycare at 7 months, left storks nest at 19 months). Nothing in our new state has even compared to the care we got at Storks Nests!

There just aren't enough good things to say about Tender Hearts. We've had both of my children…read morehere since they were 13 weeks old. My son is now graduating to Kindergarten and is already reading and writing. From the very onset of our time here, we've always felt like the staff loves our children as if they were there own. When Covid hit, we were reassured that our children were safe and they were. Tender Hearts approach was always to be as pragmatic as possible while abiding the Dept. of Health guidelines. We actually tried to move our children closer to home after my husband and I shifted to working remotely and we ended up right back at Tender Hearts because we learned there is no place like it. It's home and I can't recommend it any higher!

GYMNASIUM REVIEW ONLY:…read more My Daughter is currently enrolled in a fall mini-club via Blast Volleyball that is out of Gordon School. Kudos to Gordon for seeing an a opportunity to support kids athletics and make a little money! The school is nestled off a major road, in a suburban neighborhood. Not a large parking lot, but enough spots that we require. Cute little playground. The facility is very clean with ample bathrooms (they have baby wipes and offer free lady products in the bathrooms!) The gymnasium is in great condition with bleachers. Great space for your kids to practice.

Our child has attended OSMS for two years and is truly thriving. It's amazing to see how deeply she understands math, reading, and science.

The best decision I ever made regarding education for my daughter was sending her to a French…read moreAmerican school. Being fluent in French opened up many exciting opportunities for her for college. She attended a prestigious French university for a very, very reasonable price (Sciences Po.) In fact, much of the money we spent on her elementary school French education was saved when she attended the French University. She now attends an Ivy in the USA. My grandson is carrying on this new family tradition by attending FASRI. I have been impressed with the quality of teachers and staff. They are professional, patient, and warm. My grandson is rapidly learning French. I feel incredibly lucky that there is such a high quality bilingual school near where my daughter is living. They also have something called "Passport." It is a program for older children who attend the school who do not have a background in French. It makes the transition to French much easier.

Her two eldest daughters were among the school's six pupils, and in September 1994, she with a small baby in her arms she taught the first classes. Inspired by her own experience at an elementary school near Paris, Madame Velociter wanted her daughters to have access to a similar type of education. The dual-language program she created combines the rigor and excellence of the French system, with more project-based educational techniques found in some American independent schools. In the spring of 2000, the school moved to its present location at 75 John St. In 2012, Dominique Velociter was made knight in the Order of the French Legion of Honor in recognition of her outstanding services to French education and culture through the creation of the school.

It is large enough that each daughter is able to find her place academically, socially, spiritually, athletically and is able to develop a healthy sense of self. MB is unique in that the Quaker values provide a calming, quiet powerful start to their day and help to build a partnership with their teachers. Our world is changing fast and we feel that Moses Brown is focused on the world that our girls will thrive in bc of their experiences and problem solving skills. No school is perfect but from our experience we feel that MB partners with us as parents to help mentor our kids to be the best they can be, to help make the world around them a better place and to feel Confident in their abilities. It is a challenging school but large enough to accommodate different learning styles. When there are tough issues that arise the faculty addresses them immediately. Our family is active at the school because we believe in the MB mission and feel blessed to be a part of the welcoming community.

He has excelled academically, has had opportunities in sports & clubs galore. He has fostered friendships with respectful, good kids that will last a lifetime. Learning how to give back to the community and help the less fortunate are personality traits that have been instilled in everyone at Lasalle. The teachers and staff are friendly and always readily accessible. If I have a question, it will be answered promptly no matter what it is about. My son is assigned a class dean & counselor that will stay with him until he graduates, they really get to know one another and can watch my son grow throughout the 4 yrs. Not only does Lasalle prepare the student for college but help us along the path too. It has been proven time & time again that Lasalle Academy is an environment that nurtures & guides teenagers into young adulthood that any parent would be proud of.
