Due to the fact that child care and preschools are hard to come by in this military town, we were…read morereferred to the SVC ECEAP preschool. It is a state-funded preschool that is free for families who qualify. Preschool is Tuesday-Friday and there is a morning class(8:30am-11:30am) and afternoon class(12:15pm-3:15pm). Although there are no classes on Mondays, the office is still open. Since this preschool is put on by Skagit Valley College, parents can actually earn elective credits every semester just by having their children attend the school! They do tours of the college so you can see what it's all about. Even though I am not currently taking other classes at SVC, I love the fact that I can still utilize their services being that I'm enrolled by having my son attend the preschool. There are a lot of great other resources for parents to help support their children whether it be educational, emotional, financial, etc. There is a parent council for those who want to get more involved and they have frequent luncheons so you can meet and socialize with other parents. Towards the end of the year, kids who will be going to Kindergarten will get to go on a school bus and get a sneak peak at a real grade school class room. This is an absolutely wonderful preschool with amazing teachers and staff! My sons teachers were Miss Patricia, Miss Jill, and Miss Sonni. They are all very attentive to each of the children and you can see how passionate they are as teachers. I really appreciate all that they do and we will miss them terribly!

I cannot even express how grateful I am to Children's Academy. My son started going to daycare…read morethere as a young toddler, under 2. We've experienced nothing but love, nurturing, care, and positivity from his daycare experience. Daycare is his favorite place outside of home. He loves the other kids and the care providers. We've had great communication and he's grown in speech, independence, and confidence. I don't worry while I'm at work and he's sleeping and eating better as well. The routine and structure have been wonderful for him.

If I could give this place zero stars, I would. I can't believe there haven't been more reviews…read morerecently, but you're gonna see them soon. I worked here for 6 months, and reported staff and management behaviors to licensing and CPS. They are very rough with children. A teacher was recently fired for things she has been doing for years, but now there's video proof of her physically abusing a child. Teachers are not allowed to tell parents ANYTHING other than "they had a good day". Children who were very obviously experiencing abuse or neglect at home were reported by teachers to CPS, only to have the owner say everything was fine. Staff turn over is high because no one can stomach what happens here, and the state does nothing. If you love your children, do NOT send them here.
