The teachers are caring, patient, and truly dedicated to helping each child grow. Ms. Tanya, the director, is awesome--she genuinely cares about the kids and runs the school with so much heart and professionalism. A special shout-out to Ms. Joanna, who has been such a loving and caring teacher. My girls absolutely adore her, and it's clear how much she loves what she does. The school's educational program is excellent, and they've always been flexible and understanding with scheduling. Our daughters have learned so much and built great confidence here. Thank you, Ms. Tanya, Ms. Joanna, and the entire CHM team for creating such a nurturing place for children to learn and thrive. I highly recommend this school to any parent looking for the perfect preschool for their child. -Wagner

I'm very impressed with the communication from education, illnesses, fun events, children's progress, etc. The teachers are so kind and caring- my son loves them all and so do we! The school is welcoming, it truly feels like a second home, and we couldn't recommend it enough. Soon my second will be joining and I'm looking forward to watching him grow here too! Thanks CHM!!

The individual care they give to each child is fabulous. They take time to ensure each parent is well informed but more importantly that each child feels loved, safe, and important. Every learning experience, hard time, and activity reached children respect for themselves, others, and their environment. As a parent, there is nothing better in a preschool than when you know your child is excited to go to preschool and you feel confident that they are in nurturing, supportive care. Don't let street view of the home fool you - Brandy and Scott have taken great care in creating a wonderfully prepared environment with natural play spaces, animals, and a beautiful garden in the large backyard with a separate entrance to the side of the home. They have an application process to ensure it's a great match for all including a call and an in-person visit. They provide very detailed daily notes for each child every day sent same-day along with lots of photos, and a quick check in at pickup. They also create opportunities for the families to have several group events throughout the year. If you are a family that loves being outdoors, values an environment that cultivates respect and care for all living things, and your kids love a good mud puddle, then look no further!

Unfortunately, it quickly became clear that the care and environment were nothing like what was presented during our initial visit. During the five weeks my girls attended, the center was consistently chaotic and dirty. There was little to no structure, and children ran wild with minimal supervision while staff stood around chatting. My 1 yr old spent her days in an overcrowded infant room with little space to play. On one occasion, I even witnessed a teacher openly berating another staff member in front of the children. Completely unprofessional and inappropriate behavior. And now here we are, months after withdrawing my children, I am still receiving bills, now totaling over $5,000, for care that never occurred. These invoices are for dates long after my children stopped attending. Despite reaching out multiple times, the daycare has refused to take responsibility or fix the problem. They've repeatedly blamed their billing system, yet when I contacted the company directly, I was told the issue is entirely on the daycare's end. Their lack of accountability and professionalism is completely unacceptable. I strongly urge other parents to think twice before trusting this center with their children or their money.

When we first started looking for a daycare, I wanted a play-based non-chain environment. DLC was super close to our house, and I loved the philosophies I read on their website. DLC has been more than I hoped. We were there before pandemic, during pandemic, after pandemic. All the time they had a warm and professional staff, helping all of us navigate zoom-school. The teachers are wonderful and caring. The outdoor play area is huge. The school-age kids in the summer do a ton of field trips. They are very communicative. I feel well-informed. They are constantly evolving and improving. But most of all, my son loves it. He is sad he doesn't go there anymore. I think he would love to be a kid at DLC forever. He has made memories and friendships that will last him a lifetime.

Treasure Garden is built on a curriculum that focuses on developing foundational practical kinesthetic habits, self, community, and space-care techniques, and inspiring a love for learning and social relationships. The rhythm of the seasons, the day-to-day routine (play, art, snack, play, lesson, play, lunch, clean-up, story), and the processing of each day's lessons (ranging from accountability, to being good friends, to how to use scissors, why the seasons change, the colors, physical exercises, raising butterflies, making dumplings and sushi) allows for little ones to strengthen their sense of self and fulfill their joy in knowing that they can contribute in a meaningful way. Keiko's approach, steeped with an appreciation and joy for young children, balances Waldorf principals and Japanese traditions, cultivates a love for school, helping others, creative outdoor play, and a love for learning in my child--foundations that I highly value and am grateful for.

Here the real education takes place. Helga and staff (Ms Katya and Ms Melina) are supportive, caring and firm when needed. My child is very stubborn and wants everything her way, and the teachers spend much time explaining what's right and wrong. They also were very persistent when it came to following the rules (bc in the previous daycare children did whatever they wanted). My child has had much less incidents (falling, scratching, etc.) in the school as well, meaning children are being looked after. Important thing to mention that graduates of Ms.Helga's daycare easily enroll in Riverview Elementary School, which assesses kids to get in. Overall, great place and I highly recommend this daycare.
