There is a lot to see and I know that in my hours spent here I barely scratched the surface. I've heard a rumor that the parking lot on Hagys Mill Road is not particularly safe in that some folks have had their cars broken into, but I didn't have a problem when I parked there. Maybe use the main entrance, though? Just a thought. Will return here to explore more!

What a hidden gem! It was a beautiful Saturday to go for a walk here. It's easy to find. When you…read moreturn in off Hagys Mill Road you follow a long driveway to the parking lots. A building with restrooms, water fountains, a children's play area, gift shop, special exhibit room and classrooms is across from parking lots. The gift shop had some unique items like local honey. The grounds are amazing. So many different trees and plants. A watershed walk was happening so I checked in and was given a map. It was about a 1 mile loop with several activity stations. It was geared more towards kids/families. The staff member gave me a swag bag with binoculars and a magnifying glass even though I didn't have kids. The activities looked fun. All of the staff were knowledgeable and friendly. I saw several groups of deer that were pretty close. I followed the walk and then ventured on a different trail on my own. It was a pleasant place to be! The trails were fairly easy. I was told by a few staffers that it would be hard to get lost! Most of the events are geared towards kids/families. A preschool is onsite so lots of kids are around during the week. Hopefully, more adult programs will be added. NOTE: dogs are NOT allowed

I honestly cannot believe what our experience has been like with Newtown Friends School. It was…read morerecommended to us by an acquaintance whose children attend there and love it. Small classes, progressive values such as inclusivity and diversity, values that so much seemed to reflect our own. It just so happens that our fourth grader was the victim of a crime over the summer before attending this new school. His behavior was affected by this event and, initially, NFS staff, using their language of partnership and collaboration, provided support that had an immediate positive impact. As they expressed a willingness to collaborate with us so did they decide NOT to actually collaborate. The simple recommendation was to keep the support in place and unchanged for a number of months. For whatever their reason, they chose not to do so. This immediately set our child up for failure as they made changes to the support that was working perfectly. Despite our efforts to collaborate, they simply changed it with no regard to what would work for our son. As a result, he was basically set up for failure. Our bright and motivated 9-year-old boy was never in so much trouble as he was at NFS. He was clearly under their critical microscope and their lack of understanding, empathy and unwillingness to work with him was both shocking and obvious. We decided that this school was definitely not a match for him or for our family. The values that they tout are good on paper but our experience is that none of them were genuine and there was no caring about our child, family or experience. "Teaching the whole child", and all of their "partnership", was chewed up and spit out along with us. But they made a point of keeping our.overpayment. Please know that NFS collects tuition fully in advance of the school year being complete. So if you invest in this place for your child's education and well-being, be prepared to lose your money if your child is deemed not good enough by those on high in administration. A sad reflection of Quaker values equating to a complete and total lack of empathy, enormous hypocrisy and obvious greed.

My son seemed happy, he was learning, and things appeared to be going well. Unfortunately, my experience took a very disturbing turn and I feel obligated to share it so other parents can make an informed decision before enrolling their children here. My son's elbow was dislocated while he was in their care. When I asked the owner what happened, the only response I received was "I don't know what happened." I had to take my child to the hospital where doctors had to pop his elbow back into place. When I asked to see the camera footage, I was told there was no camera angle covering that area. When I asked to speak directly with the teacher in the room to understand what happened to my child, I was told I was not allowed to speak with them. Even more concerning, an incident report was never submitted to the state regarding my son's injury, which raised serious questions for me about accountability and transparency. Even after this situation, I continued sending my son there because at the time I believed the center still had positive qualities. Looking back, that was clearly a mistake. The owner and her husband are extremely dismissive and passive aggressive toward parents. The owner, Binal, does not build relationships with families and does not allow teachers to communicate directly with parents at all. Communication is tightly controlled. Another major concern is that parents are not allowed inside the facility by the owners. Pennsylvania childcare regulations allow parents to enter the facility, so preventing parents from doing so is extremely troubling and raises serious concerns about transparency. The owner's oldest daughter, who is under 16 years old, is frequently present around the daycare and involved in the day-to-day environment with the children. There are also concerning rumors among parents regarding how she interacts with children, which only adds to the uneasiness about supervision and professionalism. There are also serious safety concerns on the playground. The swing set is leaning heavily to the right and appears unstable. If that structure were to fall, it could seriously injure or hospitalize a child. It is alarming that equipment like this would remain around small children. The children also rarely go outside, even when the weather clearly permits it and when outdoor playtime should be part of their daily routine. Meal practices were also concerning. Breakfast is listed as being served until 9:30 AM, but if your child arrives after 9:15 AM, they reportedly will not receive breakfast and must wait until lunch. For young children, that policy is unreasonable. The most upsetting situation occurred when I was suddenly accused of making racial comments on ClassDojo, which I have never done. I was shown what was presented as a screenshot for "proof," which I strongly believe was fabricated. Based on that accusation, my child was wrongfully terminated. After terminating my son, I told them I would come in to collect his belongings and pay the two weeks that were still owed, but they told me I could keep the payment. That response only reinforced my belief that they knew the situation had been handled improperly. There were also other ongoing issues. My son once came home with severe blisters on his bottom because he was not changed properly, despite me repeatedly explaining that he has sensitive skin and requires cream at every diaper change. Overall, after reflecting and looking deeper into this center, I am honestly disgusted that I trusted this facility with my child. What initially appeared to be a warm and caring environment turned out to be something very different. This review is not written out of retaliation. It is written to spread awareness so other parents can make informed decisions. Childcare facilities should prioritize safety, transparency, and accountability. Unfortunately, based on my experience, Seven Wonders failed to provide those things.

Just a quick heads up for anyone who picks up Kindergartners after the morning sessions at this…read moreschool: I was politely instructed today to pull away from the pickup zone prior to buckling my grandchild into his car seat because it is quicker and facilitates speedy loading of all students. Of course, this policy is in contravention of both the PA Child Passenger Protection Act and common sense. The available alternative is to skip the line, park elsewhere and walk the child from the "Orange" door to the parking lot. Inconvenient in good weather and more so in inclement weather, but it will get you past the school policy that obligates one to disobey state law and teach children a very bad lesson. Show less
