I reviewed and walked the premises of six different facilities and by far this establishment was the best in my opinion. There's a few reasons why, and I will explain. First off the staff, starting from Janelle and Courtney to the nurse Erin including all the aids made our family feel as though we were part of their family. It's a small establishment which I really appreciated. It made Mom feels though she was actually at home. In closing I want to give thanks to everybody at this establishment that made my mother's final days very peaceful.

When it became clear that Mom had reached the stage in her life where she needed assistance in…read moreliving with ease, we began prioritizing what would be important. Topping my list was to find a facility that felt more like a community, with comfortable living quarters, engaging activities, and supportive health services. After one visit to Pomperaug Woods, it was clear that we had found the ideal place, a community where mom would be a valued resident, supported and cared for with respect and compassion. Mom did not lose her independence by moving to an assistance-in-living facility; rather she moved into a community whose supportive amenities free her to live a more engaging life.

The Food Bank plays a vital role in our area, being a distributor of food to many food pantries and organizations in our area to help hungry families. They have been around for many years, and a number of local organizations and individuals give freely of their time to volunteer here to stock shelves, clean, organize, among other things. It is an amazing organization that more people need to know about. Please think about donating, go to their web site to see what is most needed, and absolutely call to sign up to volunteer! What the previous reviewer experienced should most certainly not happen, and I can attest that the staff there are very appreciative of anyone who can help them in any way! Spread the word and donate, volunteer and donate! More people in our area need food assistance than you might think.

The children interact, they're on the computer, there are children from all over, most importantly they are safe.

Super clean, plenty of water, PLEASE DONATE!!! There are classes for young and old, there is so much to do in there, you can even work out while your child is learning Tang Soo Do, now let's not go into the class because Master Jones, and their newest, grandest addition to the team, Master Ralph are the absolute BEST in what they do! Kim and Tom are dedicated to what they do and are always available to answer any question that you have. Oh not to mention DOG friendly!!!

I went here for the opening of a new exhibit called the World of Bees last night, as I am loosely…read moreconnected to the creator of said exhibit. While I don't have any children and this place is pretty much irrelevant to me living in Brooklyn, I feel my different perspective could be helpful to parents and educators in the area. As it was an exhibit opening, we heard short speeches from and interacted with the people behind this organization and space. They are some pretty amazing and very passionate people. Their dedication to creating a fun and engaging space where children (and adults) can learn about the wonders of nature is extremely noble. They deserve your attention and your children deserve the educational tools they offer. I should also mention that the bee exhibit is pretty awesome. I am not much of a 'scientist' so I learned a lot of interesting facts about bees. It is put together beautifully and is highly interactive. They even made little bee costumes, so the kids will be able to dress up and act out the parts of different types of bees. The exhibit, along with supplemental information from conversations with people who take bees very seriously, also provided me with an opportunity to do some critical thinking about how human beings interact with the natural world and the unintended or ignored consequences of our actions. In summary, don't bee stupid! Take your kids to this wonderful little learning center. The television will still be there buzzing when you get home.

The childcare providers are nurturing individuals (looking at you Ms. Stacey and Ms. Janet) who clearly enjoy working with children. They form close bonds with every child and cater to each one's unique needs. The kids always seem happy.
