The teachers are AMAZING and my daughter loves them. They work really hard to ensure my child is taken care of and learning everything she needs to start kinder.

NWS also offers after school care for older kids, summer camps and seasonal camps when public school is not in session. We love NWS!!

My kids have done the Spanish immersion summer camp, and I have done one on one classes here. Everyone is incredibly nice and helpful.

My daughter attended since she was 15 months old (22 months now but we will be moving soon), this…read morewas her first daycare experience. I was drawn to this place due to the Spanish immersion and while I cannot say she has picked up much Spanish (yet) her vocabulary has exploded tremendously since being there. This is a family-run business with a range of caregivers younger, middle aged, and older. I have had nothing but good encounters with each of them and what stands out is that all of them can tell me about my child. This lets me know that the ratio of caregivers to child is small enough and/or that communication is good between employees. While this is not a state-of-the-art facility, the director takes the time to communicate with parents about the child, going as far as texting me pictures on occasion. The one time my daughter fell off a toy slide, she communicated and texted a picture of that immediately (it was nothing really). In other words, I feel like the employees care and my child is safe. I have not been inside much due to COVID-19 restrictions but on occasion I have been invited in to observe my daughter's classroom. Again, this is not a fancy place but it is up to standards and clean. I will say, it is up to the parent to inquire about the child's day as they don't really volunteer a lot of information if not prompted. I don't think is necessarily lack of transparency they just don't have a protocol for daily reporting. In their defense any major concerns are disclosed promptly (i.e. child threw up, has a diaper rash, is low on diapers, etc.). Its more the little things they don't offer unless you ask (how did they nap? Did they eat well? what was their mood? etc.). Another note is that there have been times I am returned the wrong bedding or clothing to wash over the weekend, so clearly label your child's belongings. I don't see a reason to make a big stink about this as eventually, everything is returned and with a sizable daycare these things seem inevitable to me, I only mention them because I know some parents are very particular. Overall I think they deserve 5 stars if you are not picky about the small things and are mostly concerned with safety, transparency, and staff who genuinely care about your child.

In September of 2022 I had the opportunity to be in attendance for the first ever Hustle Academy…read moreConference & Expo. This event was open to all, but free for ages 18-25. The two day event was packed with information and gave us useful tips on how to excel in the current world we live in. We got to hear from individuals from different industries and were able to ask them questions, which was great! Through the conference I was able to receive a sponsorship from BDW to learn how to trade, as well as gain mentorship from Lenny Walls himself, as well as Manny Diotte, Yvonne Aceves, and Ymelda Salas. Since then, I've had some powerful experiences and life changes, and a lot of it is through these mentors! Here's a few that stood out to me: -a lot of us went to Miami for a business conference for a November weekend and it was incredible! We did so much in the few days we were there and I felt like I really got to see another side of the people I was with! It was a bonding experience for sure! Got to eat a lot of food, hear people speak at the conference, and even were welcomed onto a yacht! Miami was beautiful and the experience from that weekend made it all so much better. -the mentees have had many opportunities to attend high end galas, holiday parties, and events. The events are so beautiful and it's been a great way to network and get a feel for what our futures may hold! -As for fitness, I've been able to attend one of Lenny Walls' Hustle Fit Camps (& I'm signed up to take another later this month). The event is free for all and inclusive. Lenny even gave us options to modify exercises based on our physical abilities. The fit camps usually run about an hour long and it's a lot of fun! I would recommend it for those looking for some family friendly fun that also keeps you moving! -More recently I've been working part time with Yvonne in her marketing business too! Work doesn't feel like work when it's with someone you like spending time with! I appreciate getting to work with someone I trust & learning from them while also being able to put my skills to use! -BDW and the mentorship I have been receiving also emphasize self-growth, and I feel like I have been able to do that with them through the mastermind meetings they host for us weekly as well as offering a safe space and advice for life events that come our way. They've made a conscious effort to push me to become my very best and I'm so grateful for them and all that they've taught me and continue to teach me!
