Our child got so sick and came home dehydrated, that my wife had to stay home with him for an additional 2 weeks and we never went back (she lost the job due to absence). Despite this negative experience, we just wanted to be done with Celebree, so we said our last day was after our 2 weeks absence (paid for 4 weeks). They refused to accept this, and said we had to notify them a month in advance, and would be billing us for an additional month! That's over $2000 for services not even taken. They refused to drop the bill and sent it to collections. Unless it can be settled going to take them up in small claims court...

Not only do we feel comfortable leaving our son while we work and trusting that they will take good care of him but the skills he has learned and activities he participates in have helped him to really grow.

When we arrive everyone knows who our son is and who we are so it's definitely a comfortable atmosphere. Would definitely recommend Celebree.

But the teachers are fantastic, the tuition is unbeatable, and the community is welcoming. When my son started there were other moms who had already sent 2 or 3 kids through the program, so on my first volunteer days they would show me the ropes and answer questions. Over the next two years, my son and I both made so many wonderful friends through the co-op. My 5 year old just "graduated" and it was pretty incredible to see how many moms were tearful at the graduation, not just because their babies were growing up but because their time at the co-op was over. The instruction is engaging, play-based and developmentally appropriate. There were many special activities like sports day, pajama day, field trips, teddy bear picnic, etc. They also offer two summer camps after the end of the school year for fantastic prices. They don't spend tons of money on advertising and have existed for the last 30 some years by word of mouth. We've had a fantastic experience so far and I can't wait to send my younger kids!

We decided to leave this preschool because we felt that the decisions being made by the management…read moreteam were not made with the best interests of the families who attended. The Director in my opinion is egotistical, and unstable. When 3/4 of the parents at this school had enough and decided to leave, the director would belittle and send out manipulating and unprofessional emails. The school had great teachers, but most of the teachers had a mass exodus from getting tired of the unprofessionalism shown by management. They also did not follow their own set of rules in their own handbook about giving deposits back. A vast amount of families had been owed next years deposits but the school decided to not abide by their own rules, leaving these families out of a lot of $. Our time spent here, was way too drama filled for a preschool! I would not recommend going here.

I have been a parent in the Davenport community for the past two years and my son is starting his…read more3rd year tomorrow. We are VERY excited!!! Before sending my son to Davenport, I visited A LOT of preschools. I can say that I couldn't find a stronger preschool or a better preschool for my son than Davenport. My husband and I are very picky and I can tell you that our son has thrived so much in this learning environment. Our son is a stronger critical thinker, more curious about lots of new ideas and concepts, and most important to us a better human because of his experience at Davenport. Obviously, as parents we talk to him about being kind and compassionate but Davenport helped him live out the principles we've been teaching him in his inclusive classroom. Our son has been exposed to students with learning differences and he's learned how to be in community with all types of learners. We are so grateful for that. I know that he will be a better community member in his next environment because of the exposure he received at Davenport. Additionally, our experience with the leadership has been very positive. When we first toured the school, we shared that we may have a foster child in our care due to the some challenges facing a family member. Liz and the team were incredibly supportive and were open to that possibility. I was so grateful for that. While the young boy didn't come to live with us, I had comfort and slept better at night knowing that if he had come, he would have had a home at Davenport. I also appreciated how forthright and transparent the leadership was when the Towson campus closed. I can only imagine how difficult that situation was for Liz and the team but I appreciated how they shared information about the campus closure and transition to Sparks before our enrollment forms were due. They had multiple parent meetings, made themselves available for individual meetings, and stayed in constant contact with the Towson community. I couldn't have asked for more out of the team. And they did all this while dealing with their own experiences of loss. Because of our previous research, it wasn't even a question. We were going to Davenport Sparks! And we made that decision even though my husband has a 90 minute commute to pick up our son in the evening. I have also found them to be incredibly supportive of my son. They have always put him in the right classes to foster his development. They really know what they are doing when they pair students with teachers and they set up classes. Each child has a different personality and yet I have always found they have the right mix and my son always has a great community of students and a great teacher. I have loved his teacher each and every year!!! Finally, I have found the leadership to be very open. For example, diversity in the student body and faculty is very important to me. I've shared my commitment to diversity and the importance of diversity. The leadership took my commitment to heart and I am so proud of the increased diversity I've seen in the school community over the past few years. I honestly cannot write enough positive things about Davenport and the team there. I am so grateful and I cannot imagine what I would do without them.

The kindergarten program is approved by the Maryland State Board of Education. Havenwood also provides full time, early bird, half day, and late afternoon child care. The various programs are designed to meet the needs of children between the ages of two and six years old. Havenwood classes are not in session during summer months. We do offer a summer camp for the month of June. Our goal is to create a child- centered program geared to increasing awareness, encouraging a positive self-concept, and instilling a love of learning through the child's own creations, imagination, and thoughts. Equal importance is given to social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. This is accomplished in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere where each member of the staff has a true love for children and the desire to open the world of knowledge to them.

They do not set up anything for you or help you out in any way. We had our son's 1st birthday party there and we had to pay for an extra hour to set up the place for the party, only to find out there was nobody there that actually worked there. We couldn't get in until 30 mins past when we paid extra and when we showed up it was just 3 tables and 12 chairs stacked in the middle of the room. And the room on had one outlet with two plugs which made the place useless for keeping food warm in crockpots. We had to scour the place for more tables and chairs because they knew we would be having 60+ ppl but did not accommodate whatsoever. Nor did they answer any emails when we asked questions and looked for guidance. Overall a terrible place for an event, stay away.
