I came in to…read morethe center a few weeks ago with my husband and toddler for a visit, & on arrival I was disappointed to hear staff down the hall, literally screaming at the kids to "shut their mouths" and calling them annoying. If your workers aren't equipped to deal with kids they shouldn't be around them. Simple!!! My son will definitely not be going there. One of the girls even called herself making a joke telling us to "run while we can" as the manager was on a phone call. Completely unprofessional all around!! They definitely give off a $$$ hungry impression, also learned their food provided to the children is all microwaved & not always the right temperate. The kids are always sick way more than should be, doesn't seem sanitized at all! WE DEFINITELY RAN AND YOU ALL SHOULD TOO!!

**Review for Children of America**…read more I have been sending my kids to Children of America since my son was just 9 months old, and my daughter, now 3, has been attending since she was 4 months old. This place has been a significant part of our lives, but I feel compelled to share my experience due to some troubling incidents. Recently, my son was slapped across the face by a much older child, leaving him in need of an ice pack for the rest of the night. Shockingly, despite this serious incident, the other child's family was allowed to continue attending the program without consequence. Meanwhile, Miss Corrie, the director, whom I thought I had a good relationship with, made the decision to kick my kids out of the program. I've noticed a pattern of unethical behavior at this daycare. There seems to be a lack of accountability when it comes to the older kids who frequently hit the younger ones. When I inquired about these incidents, the staff often dismiss them as simple accidents, saying the kids "fell" or something similar, which feels incredibly misleading. I urge parents to be cautious when considering this daycare for their children. It's disheartening to see that the safety and well-being of the children may not be the priority they claim it to be.There is also a caretaker that works there her name is Tracy more than once I caught her lifting my kids up by one arm very roughly and when she sees you she acts like she was just playing with the kids. Just be careful because your kids will get hurt here.

The Director is amazing and has a great program. Mr Ronald is the best. As someone who works in…read morecompliance and regulations I am can confirm that the director is following laws and regulations. The director is dedicated and hard working. Thank you for all your work Ms. S.

You could not ask for a better pre-k & k experience for your child…read more I live 20 minutes away and drove all 3 of my children for 3 years each to attend Step Ahead. All 3 of my children had different learning styles and needs. 1 needed to be challenged: She raised the bar with cultural subjects -- Teaching about other countries, animals (turtles live in the classroom), time, history, music, movement, science, art, play and performances. My middle child needed more practical life skills (how to tie his shoes and put on his coat, prepare snacks and drinks, go to the bathroom without help, and clean up after himself) and Sensory/Self & Body Awareness - Linda saw a need here that year and brought in someone to teach the students (and teachers) Brain Gym (google it). My last was/is my most challenging, as she is extremely anxious/shy and has a non-verbal learning disability and auditory processing disorder. The 3rd year she was there, she received almost exclusive 1 on 1 teaching with Linda's classroom assistant teacher. All of the teachers are wonderful, they have all worked for Linda for years and therefor they all have great working and personal relationships. Currently my niece and nephew are students as are all of my cousins children and I am slightly jealous to not be a part of the school anymore. I miss Linda, Chris, Fran, Anne and Nancy! Your children will be in excellent hands! ..Important: They also have a summer program for working parents (or non-working parents) and every week in the summer there is a new theme and field trip. Noteworthy: When my oldest son went to 1st grade with another classmate from Step Ahead, the teacher didn't really know what to do with them because they were so far ahead of their peers.

My children are happy and extremely well cared for by all the teachers. The owner and Kindergarten teacher Linda has been an absolute God send to me when it comes to helping me with the education of my two children. She knows the ability and needs of all her students. I choose this school over the public kindergarten because I see how my children have grown to love learning because Step Ahead is so well organized and enjoyable for the kids. My kids don't want to leave at the end of the day and I am always welcome to stay for a few minutes to talk to any of the staff about my children's day. These teachers and after school helpers are caring, bright, creative and the best!! I am a public school teacher of 15 years so I know great leaders and teachers when I see them!!

My son started attending Merry Deb in September 2022 after we moved to Weymouth from Cambridge…read morebased on a recommendation from a former co-worker. He was in the pre-school room as it was his last year before starting kindergarten. It was such a great experience. Not only did it prepare him for kindergarten (writing his first and last name, eating lunch within 30 minutes, etc) but he learned so much through the other programming (Black History month, Women's History month). He adores every single teacher and director at Merry Deb, and he was so excited to get to go back for "summer camp" for a few weeks this summer in between the other camps he is attending. If you are looking for a pre-school in the area, I cannot recommend Merry Deb highly enough!

With moving back to the US we had to choose a year round Pre-School for our son that not only allowed him a safe place to be while we are working, but a place where he can learn, socialize, be active and learn a routine all rolled into one. I researched and viewed many Pre-Schools in the Quincy area and their price was very competitive and well worth every dollar. But what was nice they are right in the middle.
