Very disappointing experience overall. We signed up early for the next school year, but literally…read morewithin a few days we found out because of a work situation that we would be moving to Canada. We reached out right away, explained everything and asked if they could make an exception. They absolutely could have if they wanted to, but instead chose to charge us close to $2,000 and kept pointing us back to the contract and legal language. I even appealed directly to both the outgoing and incoming heads of the school, hoping there would be some understanding given the circumstances and how quickly we notified them. Unfortunately, there was none. The saving grace for us was my son's teachers, Mr. Rao and Mrs. Joshi. They were wonderful and we genuinely appreciated them. Beyond that, I was never particularly impressed with the administration or the overall experience. For a school that positions itself as a premier institution and has so many positive accolades, our experience was very different. To us, it felt like a pretty average/subpar school packaged and marketed as something much more. If you are considering AIA, just make sure you read every line of what you sign. Don't assume there will be any flexibility or understanding even when circumstances change within a matter of days.

For the parents reading this, I went out thinking I would forget or never see anyone BUT some kids went to the same Middle/High School as me! It was awesome to catch up with them after not seeing them for years!! Anyways, I loved this place and would 100% recommend this place to anyone.

We have two sons who are currently enrolled at Cadence - one in Toddler 2 and one in Preppie 3…read more Both boys have been at this school since they were infants, and they absolutely love everyone on the staff. The activities that they do in their classrooms are incredible - they get to participate in Chinese, Spanish, Art and gym classes. The Director, Assistant Director and all of the teachers are very professional, and they genuinely care for every student that walks through their doors. When the boys wake up on the weekends and become disappointed that they are not going to school, it provides us with such peace of mind knowing that they love their teachers, friends and the overall learning experience that Cadence provides. Cadence has become a part of our extended family, and we are forever grateful that we found them.

She absolutely loved the school and really exceled. The staff and curriculum prepared her extensively for her dual language immersion elementary school. She still talks about the teachers and misses going to the school. We really appreciate the school hours and they are very accommodating with schedules so it's great for working parents. We also enrolled our son at Cadence since he was 3 months old and he is now almost 4 years old, about to start Pre-K. Ms. Mickie and Ms. Kelly are amazing. They have very high standards for the daycare and always communicate with the parents. I email them and will always receive a response within 24-48 hours, most of the time the day of. As parents, we really appreciate the communication and transparency. The teachers are the best of the best. Most of them have been there decades and they truly love the kids. We love Ms. Monica and Ms. Maria, they treat the kids like their own. It really feels like a family. I cannot rave about them enough. They also send daily updates on the activities, what they ate, and pictures throughout the day. There is Mandarin class every Tuesday, book days, yoga, arts and crafts, STEM learning, etc. We love the school and cannot recommend them enough.

Every time when i call i had to give all of my information and they do not save the details of the child, finally they agreed to give an appointment to talk about the registration process. When i went alone to the school to discuss further and register my child, the management was so rude and racists , she asked to bring the child to assess her and then only we can register in the school and asked me to leave the premises. As a mother of 2 kids, i have never seen such discrimination in any preschool/ daycare center to assess the child first and then register for the spot in the school.

The teachers are so caring and that starts with great leadership, all the way to the top! The owner's daughter goes to one of the schools-proof that they believe in the strength of this program. The owner really cares about the children, even opening the schools early to give some of the kids a place to stay and have breakfast when they had no where else to go. The owner has many businesses but continues to open more Chroma centers because of their belief and passion in helping kids. The tuition is very reasonable...even when improvements were made they still kept the tuition the same, to try and keep things affordable. While we lived fairly far we kept our kids there for as long as we could. Thank you to all the wonderful teachers and staff! From their Quality Control Manager to their Director and Regional Director, everyone has been a true professional. We love you guys!!

We recently made the decision to move our child to Preston Ridge after several years at another…read moreschool, and we were honestly nervous about making such a big change. Moving a young child away from a familiar environment, teachers, and friends is never easy. We were so pleasantly surprised by how smooth the transition was, and we truly credit the warm and welcoming environment at Preston Ridge. The teachers are incredibly caring, patient, and genuinely sweet with the children. Ms. Affy and Ms. Sumi have been especially wonderful with our child. They've been so attentive, caring, and thoughtful in getting to know her and making sure she feels supported. From the very beginning, our child felt comfortable and welcomed, which gave us so much peace of mind as parents. She's excited to go to school every day, has settled in naturally, and is really thriving. Seeing her build relationships with her teachers and classmates and become so confident in a new environment has been such a relief to us. One of the things that really stands out to us is how thoughtful the school is about the children's overall well-being. They have an in-house chef, and we recently learned that the meals are prepared without added salt or sugar. Even for occasional treats, they use alternatives like maple syrup rather than processed sugar. Those kinds of details really matter to us. The food already tastes great, but knowing that the school is so thoughtful about what goes into it makes it even better. The cameras are another feature we really appreciated, especially during the transition. Sometimes you just miss your kid in the middle of the day, and being able to take two minutes to check in and see them in the classroom is such a nice reassurance as a parent. I don't find myself checking nearly as much now that our child is fully settled, but in those early weeks, it made a big difference. We also really like the school's approach to learning. There's a strong Montessori component, with an emphasis on allowing children to take the lead and building on their interests. At the same time, the teachers do a great job introducing activities and concepts that help prepare them for the next stage, including kindergarten. It feels like a good balance between following the child and making sure they're developing the skills they need. I especially like that the teachers find ways to make learning interesting and engaging while still making sure the kids are learning what they need to learn. Ms. Nikki, the director, has also made a great impression on us. She's clearly passionate about the school and is constantly looking for ways to improve an already wonderful environment. She's approachable, open to feedback, and makes a real effort to hear from parents and understand what is working and what could be even better. We are so grateful that we found Preston Ridge. After getting to know the school, the teachers, and the way they care for and educate the children, we feel confident that we made the right decision for our family. We would absolutely recommend Preston Ridge to other families looking for a nurturing environment, thoughtful teachers, strong early education, and leadership that genuinely cares.

If stability and consistency matter to you, our experience (May-July) suggests this may not be the…read moreright fit. Within two months, our two-year-old's lead teacher changed twice and the assistant changed once. Our child's class was also moved for two weeks into a younger classroom that felt overcrowded for that age mix. For a toddler who needs routine, that level of churn was disruptive. When the second lead resigned abruptly, we chose to withdraw. The school enforced a 45-school-day withdrawal clause, effectively billing families for two school months after notice. Hard to reconcile was the asymmetry: families must guarantee 45-school-days of tuition, yet leadership at times appeared to give staff as little as one week's notice of termination; in other cases, staff were listed as "on vacation" and didn't return. Whether that reflects limited loyalty from management toward staff or low staff loyalty to the workplace, it ultimately points to a management-level failure to foster a supportive environment that keeps staff committed--while families are asked to shoulder the cost of the resulting staffing and retention issues via the 45-school-day policy. If you visit the school, ask detailed questions about current turnover, staffing ratios, contingency plans, and how the 45-school-day policy is applied when staffing changes disrupt a classroom.

After touring a number of schools, Goddard was the one school I felt very at peace with, and I…read moredidn't have the feeling that my son would be missed or overlooked. It's very clear when you can just tell a person was made to work with little kids, and I've felt that with every single teacher I've met here so far; and that was not the case anywhere else. The communication and attention to detail has exceeded my expectations. I LOVE that this school is smaller, I think only one class per age group, and that Nikisha (director) knows every single parent and child by name. When I ask my son if he wants to go to any daycare (gym, church, etc) he says no. But every time I ask him about going to "school" he says yes, and he's out the door. I feel so at peace here, I'm so impressed with what he's learning every day, I love how diverse it is, I love how safe he is here, and I could not speak more highly of this place.

The foundation like to focus especially in underserved neighborhoods by providing free laundry days for the parents and have some volunteers read to the kids while the parents are doing their clothes. Its a win win! We came by a while back to collect the books and were so impressed by the amount of books donated. Not only that the quality of the books were unbelievable. There weren't cheapy books that you get at the dollar store. No there were high quality books for children from infants to about 8-10 years old. Wow, really touched by that. Thank you guys for such generosity!

First, the boys are thriving, they are well cared for and most importantly, they are happy, they actually say "we want to go to Creme". Second, the staff has been not only accommodating but incredibly nice and very supportive of my boys and of us as parents, it has that "part of the family" feeling.
