We recently moved back to the city so we had to relocate her daycare as well. When we first looked for daycare on the North Shore we wanted a place that was safe, engaging, and gave us a good feeling about how they cared for the children. ABB Too exceeded our expectations. It was well organized and the teachers were experienced, caring, engaging and provided a one of a kind experience for our daughter. We are so appreciative and grateful for the growth and confidence that we saw in our daughter for the short time that she was there. If you are considering daycare on the North Shore, you should definitely visit ABB Too, you will quickly see why it's an excellent option.

Both of my boys attended A Bright Beginning Too from a very young age, even as early as 5 months…read moreold. My hesitance to return to work and separate from my infant was quickly resolved after meeting the caring teachers at ABB. After 5 years of experience with this school I can confidently say that they provide a safe and loving environment. Not to mention the quality of education is unmatched. I've been told by our pediatrician that both of my boys are meeting their developmental milestones at an advanced rate, despite my oldest son experiencing a late start with his speech skills. His attentive teachers were quick to identify this milestone delay and offered various resources tailored to his needs. Thanks to ABB's dedicated staff my son was able to build a large vocabulary, read, and write by the age of 4! We couldn't have overcome this delay without ABBs skilled and diverse team. Their curriculum also enables children to exercise independence, kindness, and respect. I can't even count how many times I've been pleasantly surprised by my sons initiative to attempt self care tasks and display manners (unprompted!). ABB also prioritizes community involvement. Not only do they host multiple food drives/fundraisers, but my personal favorite is when the local fire department comes to introduce themselves to the kids and teach fire safety. My kids loved it too! ABB has continued to exceed my expectations despite COVID-19's relentless obstacles. The classrooms are always kept clean and organized. My children don't suffer from any food allergies but I do notice that ABB takes allergen exposure precautions very seriously. If ABB did any better of a job I wouldn't be able to get my kids to come home at the end of the day

The teachers at the center so clearly love what they do and take pride in their work. Our little guy is greeted warmly every day and even when drop offs are hard I know he's in the best hands. His teachers work hard to partner with us through challenging behaviors (toddler tantrums, oof) and have always been willing try out new things and provide feedback on how he's doing. On our car ride to school I hear all about who he wants to play with and which teachers he is hoping to see. It's so lovely knowing he's excited for his classroom.

The teachers greet my kid with a hug, lots of super cool arts and crafts, take concerns seriously, and the place is always warm and inviting.

Children's Early Learning Center of Danvers is that type of place. For context, and full disclosure We've had our son here from before when it was under previous ownership. We loved a lot of his teachers, but we also noticed that the quality of the school was going down. That was due to the previous ownership (Northeast Montessouri of Danvers). When the new owners were announced, We were happy if cautious. The sun rises and sets with our son. We wanted to suss them out and hoped we would have a chance to do it before they took over. Weeks before the new owners took over they were there available to talk to and discuss how they would be running the daycare. I found them to be super personable and I noticed that my son really liked them too. I also am a stickler for "The rules" aka the standard regulations and they are too. They officially took over on October 1...and it was like going from Black and White to an HDTV or when you see a movie in IMAX and they play the sound differences. (I can remember telling my wife it reminded me of when Dorothy pushes open the door after she lands in Oz and the movie goes for black and white to color) Immediately you noticed the difference. Proactive owners means proactive directors which means proactive staff. My son is happier than he was before (and I think everyone there knows he's a pretty happy kid baseline). he loves the owners and center director. The rooms are great and there is just a much more fun vibe there. (In our case a shout out also has to go to Ms Emily, our son's teacher, who is just awesome!) Look, we all HAVE to send our kids to daycare. With that in mind, the goal should then be to find a place you WANT to send your child. Children's Early Learning Center of Danvers is a place where you WANT to send you son or daughter.

This school has so many station areas set up for play/learn it's really cool and encourages the kids to be creative. There's almost always music playing and my toddler would be humming these cute songs to himself whether it was in the car or walking down the street holding my hand and I knew exactly where he learned them. We now play similar music in our own home and in the car all the time and sing songs with him. The teachers are so caring and are really personable. They truly care about each and every child as if their own. They provide a "progress report" to show how your child is doing every few months which is great to see how your child is learning and understanding. We have really enjoyed the time our son has attended Rock The Baby and will miss everyone there

I have had experiences with other daycares…read moreand preschools in town and I find that RTB is definitely a step above all of them in regards to attention to detail and providing a safe, clean environment for all of the children in the daycare and preschool. Both of my children have gone to RTB since they were 4 months old and I attribute a great deal of their physical and emotional development to Carolyn, Alisha and the other teachers there. The size is perfect for more individual attention to each child and I have never felt like either of my kids was "just a number." I feel like Carolyn and Alisha truly care for each child and they are like an extension of our family. Their communication with families is amazing! It is difficult to be a full time working parent but I find so much comfort in knowing my kids are well taken care of and are developing and learning so much from RTB each day they are there. I would recommend RTB to anyone looking for truly compassionate, high quality childcare in the area without any reservations!

My kids started as infants at 5 months old and Jeanne was fantastic. Helping with bottles and naps when I was a nervous wreck. They've had several different teachers through toddler 1, toddler 2 and preschool classes. My daughter went until she was 4.5 and my son is there at 3yo. The floating teachers have always been great - specifically Ms Renee! Ms Becca has been there for years and we adore her. Thea, the director is flexible and supportive. We'll be sad when the kids grow out of ECSG. I love that there's a structure every day, they learn so much through activities, art, crafts, counting, alphabet & letter recognition. They play outside for hours which I LOVE esp for my active son but they also teach patience and when to sit still and listen or complete an activity. I appreciate the balance of learning and just letting them be kids!

I was hesitant after reading the review here on Yelp about an abrupt closure a few years back due to staff leaving.
