    My son has loved his time in daycare here. It's a warm and welcoming environment with attention to…read moreroutine, playtime, and enrichment through daily activities as well as imaginative play. I've never seen him adapt so quickly to a childcare center - or be so proud of his budding skills (putting shoes on, packing his book bag). We especially love the great use of the local park for their outdoor time. All the teachers are professionals and form great bonds with their students.

    My daughter has been at FCP since she was 2 1/2, she is now almost 5 years old. I can go on and on…read moreall day about the many wonderful aspects of this school. The teachers are very caring and love those kids dearly. The curriculum is great, they are exposed to Russian and French as well as many different field trips and visits from local professionals (firefighters, police, karate instructors). There are spring, summer, fall and winter parties for all of your family to go and enjoy if your schedule allows, there are a few picnics on weekends and there is a parents night out. Parents can be as involved or not involved as they'd like. There is an open door policy and I have dropped in at random times to find everyone so cheerful and well taken care of. They go to Cherry Hill Park and the library across the street almost daily as long as weather permits. My husband and I work full time and I have to say they are wonderful when it comes to staying open with inclement weather as much as they possibly can. In the past 2 years I can barely count on one hand the number of times they have opened late or closed early because of snow. They really do all they can to be there for us working parents because a lot of us have jobs that don't close for snow like the government does. Elena is the owner/director and she is so greatly involved with everything. She's very responsive to all e-mails, phone calls. She's often there working with the kids and teachers. In a nutshell, I will be so sad for my daughter to graduate and be going to kindergarten in the fall. This is an amazing school and I'd recommend it to anyone.

    Raised both of our boys from infancy. Both of our children had positive experiences with both…read morefriends and staff. There are several staff who have been at Carousel for 10+ years, a few who have been there for over 20 years. Others have mentioned the lack of cosmetic updates to the facilities, however, ownership changed hands a year or two ago, and steady improvements to the facilities (new bathrooms, fresh paint) and technology (parent app, door camera and entry system) have been made since. At the end of the day, our children have thrived here, our oldest is doing well in elementary AAP classes and the youngest is nearing the end of his final year. We couldn't have been happier with the way things have gone, especially given the lower price than other nearby facilities, such as bright horizons in the inova complex. 10 years after nervously dropping off our first infant, barely 90 days old, we'd do it all over with Carousel. A deep thank you to all of the staff who work tirelessly so that our children get needed attention and care while we are off pursuing our careers. Kudos to you all.

    My son has been going here for 6 months now and I couldn't be happier. My son loves his teachers…read moreand the teachers are so caring! This was his first daycare center experience and I was really worried that he would not like it but he loves going everyday! We have been very fortunate and blessed to have found Carousel!

    We sent our first child to Curious Kids with Suma and happily sent our second.  We really like that…read moreSuma cooks meals for the kids (centers cater their food), and we like the smaller group size (12 kids) compared to centers.  There's a separate room with 4 cribs for the infants (under age 1) to sleep in, so the sleeping environment is better than at centers too.  Her 2 employees have been with her a long time, so there's continuity for the kids.  She also supports early potty training, so she let our daughter go without diapers at 23 months (something that many centers won't allow).   I remember that once at a Halloween party Suma threw for the kids, she said that she loved our kids like they were her own and while it made me happy to hear that, I wasn't sure I believed it.  But now that Covid-19 hit, I really do believe it.  Even after she closed, she scheduled weekly Zoom calls so the kids could see their friends.   My daughter kept asking to see Ms. Suma, and she let us come by her home and say hi (from a safe distance), and said she missed us and we could visit anytime.  These were things she didn't have to do, especially since we aren't paying her.  Ultimately, isn't that what we all want from a daycare?  Someone who will love your kids like their own?

    I can't recommended this place enough.. initially I was very nervous of sending my son to a home…read morebased day care .. but now I am very happy that I sent him here .. The assistant teachers at school are also very kind and loving .. Kids have a routine and they have some sort of activity everyday. There's a playground at the back, which is nice for them to go out and play. My son keeps talking about all the books Ms Suma reads for them.. Daily report at end of the day helps me know what my son ate and if he has napped or potty .. I did not have to worry about my sons well-being while he was at Ms Suma's. The food that Ms Suma offers is healthy with all fruits and vegetables I am happy with his nutrition while he's there .. if not for Ms Suma I would have waited forever to potty train my son.. she did train him very well so it was easier to follow Ms Suma's suggestions and get going! Overall, I am very happy about my experience with my sons language development and potty training !!
