It's around $15 for my son and I to and swim, I like that they have a family room where you can store your things in lockers, they have bathrooms w/showers in the family room, I still bring all my belongings out in the pool area, you can bring your own snacks which is convenient. My boy who is 11, likes to swim in the deep area, he did have to take a swim test his first time to make sure he can swim in that area, once he passed, they made him wear and orange bracelet, now anytime we go, we just tell a lifeguard he passed and they're ok with him just grabbing a bracelet and putting it on every time, no need to take test again. When we would go, on weekends, water slide doesn't open till 11, overall this is a convenient place to go when you feel like swimming. With it being indoors though, the chlorine smell is strong, but tolerable. The lifeguards are very nice as well.

I hope no other family goes through the horrifying experience that our family went through at this…read moredaycare. My 21 month old grandson had a hard time adjusting. Something just wasn't right. They had no compassion for him, and on more than one occassion they had him spend hours in the director's office. He came home hungry and thirsty. I believe that he was neglected when sent to the director's office. The staff lacks education and patience. My grandson was very sick. All the kids were sick. In two months, my grandson had to take antibiotics twice. He was out sick over 6 days. They asked him to leave because he cried and was scared when left there. They said he was disruptive because he cried and wanted to be with the teachers the whole time. The teachers did comfort him at times, but clearly it was too much to expect of them. There were just too many kids for them to care about the one that really needed extra care. It saddens me that I subjected my granson to this daycare. It upsets me that this was part of his first social experience with others. It angers me that my grandson was not wanted there, neglected, and rejected. It scares me that other children will be subjected to inadequate care. No child should go through the anxiety that my grandson experienced. Yes, it was partially his reaction, but no one there assured him that he was going to be okay. It breaks my heart that we entrusted them with our precious child and they didn't see his value. They didn't understand all the confidence we placed in them when we asked them to be part of our child's life. I have been a certified child care provider and my undergraduate degree is in Social Work. This daycare needs to make significant improvements for the wellbeing of the children in their care. Other people warned me, but we live so close and my grandson loved walking to school. In response: What director comments on financial matters? We did not pay the final bill due to neglect. I did pay for my grandson's medical expenses from being in care here. He never had one ear infection and was never on antibiotics prior to his care there. It was July through August, not exactly cold and flu season. I also did not file a police report. So, lets just call it even.

I have had 3 children attend Cedar Tree Montessori (two have moved to elementary public school and…read moreone is still attending Cedar Tree). We will be sending our toddler there as soon as she is old enough. We have been very happy with the care and education our children have received! As a former public school classroom teacher, education, care, staff, and environment have always been top priorities for me in selecting a suitable school. The facility is always clean and orderly. Almost daily, we receive worksheets, art, crafts, or projects that our children have completed. The results speak for themselves. Our oldest, entered public school with reading and math skills that were more than a whole school year ahead of her peers. My son, entered kindergarten reading at a second grade level, also with math skills well ahead of peers. Both continue to excel thanks to the foundation and instruction at Cedar Tree Montessori. All of the teachers, including Aly, Lorrie, Brittany, Melissa, and Dave are nurturing and caring. I have volunteered at the school and have seen their demeanor and work with the students. I can attest to their dedication to learning in a safe and fair environment. Two of our children have attended the Toddler Center. We have been very pleased with the care received. Mili and her team have created a place of fun and learning for the little ones. They are so caring and work so well as a team to provide the best, cleanest, and most beneficial learning environment possible. As I said earlier, we will be sending our fourth child here as well when she is ready. I also have to mention Debbie, the administrator of the facility. She has been so helpful and accommodating to us on multiple occasions. One example is when my mother-in-law became ill and was hospitalized. She immediately offered to watch our children full time at no additional cost (we were only going 3 days a week at that time) while our family worked through this difficult time. We have been so grateful for their flexibility and true caring for our family. I whole-heartedly give Cedar Tree Montessori School and Toddler Center my highest recommendation!

See more about this parish's history via their website - fascinating! One of the coolest things about being Catholic is: WE REMEMBER the WOMEN who carried the Cross of Christ! The NUNS! For the women who read this: be you non-Catholic or non-believers, I wholeheartedly INVITE you to examine the history of women in the Catholic Church! Start with all of the women in the Old Testament, then Our Blessed Mother, Mary, who carried and brought Our Lord & Savior Jesus Christ INTO this world. We Catholics treasure equality with our sisters IN Christ! Trust me on this - Good & True Catholic Men ALWAYS respect Our Blessed Mother Mary and ALL women! We understand and rejoice in the fact that women complete men! God created us in His image and set forth His plan: men and women literally join together as ONE BODY to create new life! Both sexes participate in creating new life! Equality! I sincerely encourage all interested or curious people to check-out the Catholic Church; see for yourself. Trust me - it could lead to a life-changing, soul-filled adventure to heights, depths and realms you cannot possibly imagine! That's how it was for me...
