We have just one more year left at the preschool until the youngest graduates! Little Angels is NAEYC accredited which is not easy to get. That isn't a requirement for my preschool decision, but it does indicate that the school takes their role seriously and that they provide high quality curriculum! They do a fantastic job of preparing the preschoolers for Kindergarten - both academically and socially. The school is very bright and cheerful and also very clean. Many of the teachers have been there a long time. They seem to have low teacher turnover which is nice. Some of the teachers have taught all three of my kids. The teachers and staff are very kind and loving. I really feel like part of the preschool community at Little Angels. I have made some great friends while chatting with other moms at pickup/dropoff. One last (huge for me) plus is that your kids don't have to be potty trained in order to attend. No stress about worrying if your kid is potty trained in time for the first day of school! I would not hesitate to recommend Little Angels to another parent looking for a preschool!

Little Angels Christian Preschool is hands down the best preschool in the Barrington. The staff is…read morewarm, supportive, highly educated, and caring. The curriculum is research-based and directly supports student growth into the Barrington 220 school system. The creative enrichment classes are also a highlight. Your preschooler will learn not only strong academic skills, but also the social-emotional skills necessary for success! The parent advisory board and parent community is strong and FUN! If you are looking for a flexible, innovative, and NAEYC accredited preschool program--look no further. Stop in for a visit with the school's director and watch the magic happen!

I am so disappointed in what happened at this daycare. My daughter was here when she turned 2 and I…read moreloved the staff everyone was so understand and sweet and really listened to the parents. My daughter is now 6 and returned just for summer on certain days and I can't get over how much unpleasantness you feel just from walking in here. This morning I literally said good morning and have a wonderful day to whoever was at the front with curly hair and she didn't even make a sound. The teacher also seems to be extremely sarcastic about anything with these school age kids room. I'm honestly going to reach out to their corporate because they have just declined and this was a daycare I raved about for years and sent many families too. Such a shame since they are so more expensive than most in the area.

The teachers help students reach their full potential everyday. The facilities are outstanding and well maintained. The maintenance team works so hard to keep everything clean and in great condition. Wheaton Christian also has a very nice selection of programs and sports to ensure a rich experience inside and outside the classroom.

Director Amanda is excellent and responsive. My son was in the Pre-K room there and my daughter in the 2s and then Preschool Rooms. Megan is/was the Pre-K teacher and I adored her. She was open and up front with the parents. Which is always appreciated. Paulina was my daughter's teacher for the majority of the time she was there and I miss her. She was sunshine. A couple of things I didn't care for: When we'd pick up the kids (at 4:15) my daughter's preschool class was often mixed in with the Pre-K class. And the same when we'd drop them off in the morning. At those times, I kind of felt like they were never doing anything....always running around playing but not doing anything organized. And by running around playing I mean that it came across as complete chaos sometimes. In the end the school did not offer Kindergarten so that is why we pulled my kids out. The school is pretty new, considering the ages of many of the places around here...so I think in time and when there are more kids there, that the kink I mentioned above may work themselves out.

Miss Pong, the director, has been great. When my first son was there, and I was a nervous mom, she was very kind and reassuring. Miss Melissa took the time to help him out of his shell and encouraged him to have fun with his friends. I knew I was leaving my kids in the best hands. I was very impressed with the education they received. My second son told me all about palindromes! When I asked Miss Anne if I was hearing him correctly, she told me that it was something she told the class, in a very basic way. But he retained that knowledge and now he likes to tell me when it's 11:11 and "that's a palindrome mom!" The facilities are very good, I liked the layout very much. The playground is just the right size for little kids, the fence around it is very reassuring with little kids running all over! I also really appreciated the security of getting into the building. I wish our grammar school had that system. I have a third son, who is too young for the program. I have no doubts where he will be going when it's his turn.

The principal, Mrs. Mitchell, is a firm and fair principal that knows how to run a school well.

Mrs. Olsen (3rd Grade) has helped my son immensely with his academics as well as shaping him to be a great student! Mrs. Morawski and Mrs. Pozezinski (Kindergarten) have taught my daughter quite a bit and she is a much smarter girl because of it!

The before and after school care programs were sub par. Teachers would sit in their chairs watching from a distance. They were not patient with high energy boys or anyone that didn't want to color coloring pages non-stop. We had a horrible experience with the principal and the director of Christian Care. We have since moved to Right at School and haven't looked back. Right at School runs organized activities, has counselors that engage with the students and have never just given up trying to help children. If you have a choice, I highly recommend avoiding Christian Care.
