Megan and Caroline were so full of information and we'll definitely be back for classes there. This mom might even take one (I think I need my own light saber). Package included pizza and spring water for the kids, they have plates and cups, you just have to bring dessert (and bring stuff if you want anything for the adults, there's a place they can hang out). Good value for the money, especially with an hour & 45 minutes for the party & pizza included).

(Apple web site says will replace batteries for Iphone 6 and above for $29.) Since I needed new battery sooner, went to MacInspires figuring the $10 premium was worth it but was told I would be charged $49 for battery. When called the following day to contest the price of the battery (should have been $39 not $49) and discuss that the sales person had misrepresented the price, I was told I could bring back to phone and have the old battery replaced. Have done hundreds of dollars of business over the years but no more!!!

I truly feel that enrolling my 3-month-old son in this daycare at New Rochelle was the right…read moredecision. When I first toured the facility, I had a great impression of the teachers and the environment, and the administrative staff was very responsive, which made me want to apply. However, after seeing some negative reviews on Yelp, I honestly hesitated and wondered if I should reconsider. But I decided to trust my initial instincts, and ever since he started attending, I've been able to see smiles on his face that I had never seen at home. It makes me so happy to see him playing with age-appropriate toys and showing expressions that make it clear the teachers are engaging with him warmly and attentively.

TLDR: The owner accused us without providing evidence of speaking of her school to other parents in…read more"derogatory manner," and then made the unilateral decision to remove our daughter from the school with only 1 business day to find alternative care for our child. In our opinion the owner and directors are not mature enough to run a business which watches children. This review is to re-enforce the other heartbreaking stories already posted here. This program is not one we can recommend to anyone. We were at the location on 130 Flandreau. We are first time parents and joined due to the good marketing/branding and the environment we saw on the tour. However, It seems that the pandemic has transformed this business. They have cut many of the programs they offer supposedly "due to covid" but in our opinion it is clearly it is to cut costs and see windfall profits. The owner Brianna is no longer involved with day to day management/operation of the NY location, although she still seems to enforces policies regarding staff communications or communicates covid rule compliance. We found it odd when we called her or emailed her and she never responded. In our opinion, we experienced some significant supervision issues with the number of staff (2) for the number of children. With a 6:1 ratio of kids/teacher the ratio is on the high end. By comparison other similarly priced daycares offer a 4:1 ratio. Our kid regularly complained about hitting/kicking etc from the other children, sometimes came home with bruises, etc. We understand that kids are kids, but, it was often an effort to get them to tell us what was going on, and more often than not the line from teachers or the director "that never happened." or "they are unaware of what caused this." These were the minor issues. When we attempted to raise the more serious issues with the staff/directory they were dismissive of our concerns. Early on we had to regularly remind them to send photos, or document what our child ate, or if she used the potty. It is as if we had to train the staff in what they told us they would do. This is all frustrating, especially considering the dramatically above average cost. Amazingly, things went south when we attended a birthday party (at someones house) were we met a few of the other parents for the first time. We were surprised at how many other parents were also frustrated with similar issues and it seemed (in our opinion) our concerns were not so out of the blue. We were asked by other parents about our next year plans, and shared we would attend a different Pre-K program next year to get a different experience. Apparently one of the parents shared this with the staff and within the week were asked to leave. We were informed via an email from Brianna the owner at 830PM on a Thursday. It simply said that the next day would be our daughters last. This was the first & only time we would ever have any form of communication with her as customers of her business. This was obviously (in our opinion) shocking and unexpected and when we replied asking to talk it out/get clarification/be offered a reasonable notice period (a week? a month?) We received, what was in our opinion, a long combative response, where were told we had a "nasty attitude" and that "There is nothing further to discuss." We feel this behavior is negligent in someone that you rely on for childcare. (What is if is impossible to arrange proper care for your child on such short notice?) We waited a long time to post this in order to gain some distance and perspective on the issue. We ended up putting our daughter into a nearby school, where it turns out the teachers/staff/director/owners are loving and caring. We know this because by comparison to Nurtury, we have met them all on multiple occasions. The community is free to speak openly on any issues, and does so. We engage with other parents regularly and the tone is far more positive. We haven't looked back (except to warn you wayward parents to stay away)! Addendum: Finally, it is to our surprise that as of the time of writing this review, we can no longer find a reference to this school Nutury Montessori @ 130 Flandreau Ave New Rochelle as a registered daycare on the OFCS website (https://ocfs.ny.gov/programs/childcare/looking/). We did find however a current enforcement action against there Larchmont location, which appears to have 11 violations in the last year, where of note, all violations were corrected except two, one of which is: 418-1.13(a)(1) Staff and volunteers must be mature, of good character and possess suitable personal qualifications. Not Corrected

I saw positive results with each test I took until I reached my goal score, which helped me get into my top choice college. The environment at Pleasantville Prep is cozy and inviting. The tutors are extremely patient, personable and caring. They work side by side with students to instill knowledge and confidence. In addition to learning ACT material, I also developed mentoring relationships with my tutors which helped with future job refrences. I still utilize the skills I learned at Pleasantville Prep daily; especially in school and test taking settings. I have nothing but positive things to say about Pleasantville Prep and the community of tutors behind it. Overall, I would highly recommend Pleasantville Prep to anyone looking for exceptional tutoring.

Didn't know Yelp was doing schools, but here we are…read more....... St. Augustine's is beyond words to describe - It's not just a school, it's a community. Overlooking the religious aspect (which is important), the teachers and administration actually care, and its shows. All the employees know ALL of the kids' names, as well as the parents too (security, lunch-staff, office admin, etc.). Teachers my kid hasn't had yet know his name.....The teachers actually want to be there, and 'craft' (mold) good children, and they go above and beyond around each and every turn. Also, the kids there have personality, heart, and compassion, for each other and the world around them. They care about each other in a way you would never (NEVER) see in the outside world. Its actual love exuding in how they interact, play, and talk. They are curious beings, with empathetic hearts, growing into this world, and protected by the school, while at the same time allowed to find themselves and evolve into good people/adults. The administration is also top-notch. From the front office, principal, vice-principal (Ms. Fessman!), Mr. Lou, and Father McSweeney and Father Figueroa . They all CARE, and know each and every one of these kids' names, personalities, and interest...............these people not only care, but they also LOVE these kids, and love their jobs (and it shows). As the saying goes, 'it takes a village to raise a kid', and St. Augustine's has that down pat. The tuition isn't that bad, and the product you see in your child shows each and every day. The biggest investment you will ever make is in your children, and placing your child here ensures a return on that investment. Thank you, St. Augustine's, for creating a child I will always love and cherish!!!

St Augustine's School STOLE my money.

I cancelled her enrollment in June but the school won't give me back the first tuition payment. I'm paying for a month of school where my child isn't even attending and I was laughed at by MARYANNE DEMPSEY who was unhelpful and nasty. These Catholic schools are a joke. All they care about is the almighty dollar. That is why my daughters first school closed and here is another school just keeping money that doesn't belong to them. I'm very hurt by the schools response and wouldn't give that parish or school another dime! It's a shame. You can't trust them.

Mathnasium has been a godsend…read more My stepson was a solid "B" 7th grade math student. We wanted him to do better to prepare for STEM coursework in High School and beyond. My stepson's improvement was quick and has been consistent. He was moved into accelerated math program in the 8th grade and in our local High School. He is achieving mid 90s on his tests against the accelerated curriculum. Mathnasium of Mamaroneck has been a big part of his journey. His math success has increased his confidence in other coursework and he is a completely different caliber of student. We highly recommend Mathnasium and their local Mamaroneck team. They have been an outstanding partner!

Dayanna was professional, patient, knowledgeable, and always on time for every lesson. One of the things we appreciated most was the convenience of being picked up directly from home for each driving lesson, which made scheduling so much easier. The vehicle used for lessons was always clean and well-maintained, helping Armani feel comfortable and confident behind the wheel. The online 5-hour class was also very flexible and convenient, making it easy to fit into our busy schedule. Dayanna's teaching style helped build Armani's confidence and prepared him thoroughly for the road test. Thanks to her excellent instruction, he passed on his first attempt. We highly recommend Dayanna to anyone looking for a reliable, dedicated, and outstanding driving instructor. Thank you for helping Armani achieve this important milestone!
