It would be really hard to stick around if we don't see any improvement in the leadership.

I thought I had that with Lightbridge in Fort Washington, but BOY WAS I MISTAKEN! The turnover is high, Jane in the front office is rude and the owners only care about getting paid the 27 of every month. I do not believe every Lightbridge Academy is like this, but I do know if I needed to do it all again, I would NEVER go back to that one. To top it off, they took money out of my account without my consent and I am yet to get it back. Please... if you are even considering the school in Fort Washington..choose wisely!

What a wonderful nursery school!…read more My son is thriving since starting school there and I am thrilled. The teachers all take the time to get to know every child's individual needs, strengths, weaknesses, and so on, and the individualized approach works so well. The head teacher is also very responsive to my inquiries (yes, even I can be a helicopter mom from time to time!) and keeps me up-to-date on my son's progress or resolutions of any questions I had. The classrooms are bright and cheery, and clean. Supplies are plentiful, especially art supplies! My son comes home with lots of new artwork every week. They have parties throughout the year to celebrate kids' birthdays, as well as some special holidays. My son comes home on school days beaming about his day, his teachers, and his new friends. What could be better than that?

Not a safe or trustworthy place for your children…read more I am devastated that I did not write this review sooner in hopes it could have helped keep the two babies seriously injured there safe and out of this place. The teacher that is in jail for harming the babies was also my daughter's infant room teacher. Absolutely devastated for the babies and their families. Their lives will never be the same. And livid at the statement issued by the center. It is more of the same from them. My daughter was in the infant room at Oaks and early on we had concerns about the safety, unprofessional processes, and unwillingness of the Director as well as the previous or past owner to have open, honest, productive conversations about issues that came up. The Director literally said to me "Michelle, you just need to stop this and trust us". No, I will not just trust you or anyone with my infant. Our primary issues were: 1. Unsafe entrance in that anyone could walk through the doors by following others through with no checks or protocal for checking 2. No transparency when my daughter moved to the toddler room on who was changing her diapers even though this had been provided in the infant room and this became a battle with the director when it should have been an easy thing 3. Staff that was doing at least double duty as both carers and cleaners 4. A broken fence lock that was never fixed in the play area 5. My daughter always wanted to get the heck of there when I picked her up unlike the daycare that I moved her to where she sometimes doesn't want to leave for a good while after we get there 6. Some staff were very disheveled. I didn't want my daughter to think that was a normal way of being. After many attempts to be collaborative and open with the owners and the director, it was obvious that if a serious problem arose that these are not the people you'd want by your side to work through it. I left before anything serious happened. There is an incident I recall in the infant room where my daughter did have unexplained injuries while in the care of Catalina Baldwin while the other teacher was out on vacation. I thank god that it was not serious, but it could have been. The only explanation I ever got was that there was no incident at school and it probably happened at home or in her car seat. We were lucky.

Beware, this center might look great from the outside and say all the right things but is a danger…read moreto children. My child attended Oaks and had the same little girl in the three and fours that would bully her physically, emotionally and verbally. As this is shocking enough at 3/4 years old the staff allowed it. The owner Alice, director Christine and teacher Alayna did not take appropriate action to find a solution to the other child's aggressive daily behavior, toward my child and others. After me telling them numerous times for months and months this is not okay, they still did not take action. I asked to speak with the child's parents and they refused, well never Even cared to get back to me. They had ample time to correct the situation and were well aware of the child's behavior. My last straw was when I picked my daughter up and she had a scratch on her face, lips were scratched up with a huge bubble on them. No one could tell me what happened , the adults at this center asked me to ask my 4 year old what happened. This is the care they provide to young children!! Horrifying to say the least. Alice the owner labeled my daughter sensitive since she would cry at drop off and after pick up in the car. Well if someone was poking at you all day and saying nasty things wouldn't anyone be upset, Especially at four years old. The center also knew my Husband was dying of cancer and he unfortunately has passed. Per a teacher that left they would not console my daughter if she talked about her Father and was upset they would leave her by herself. Another huge wow of failure from the adults. Lastly, the teachers come and go every few weeks. Oaks had the potential to be great but failed miserably. My child was taken out by me because the other child I guess is allowed to run the show and do whatever she pleases to whoever. Isn't that a great lesson to teacher both children I'm this situation . Thankfully my child is thriving at her new school and lis safe and back to herself. Don't be fooled like I was. Oh and good luck getting a conference with your child's teacher after asking for a month it still never happened.

Although, what is wrong with this school is the Owners and Management; their lack of communication skills are limited to children only, when it comes to speaking with Adult Parents - they belittle parents like they are are the children, and when confronted with how discontent I was becoming while getting yelled at by the owner Kate over the phone - she threaten me with calling the Police, and to use Video & Audio recording against me....when I did and said nothing wrong. After accepting her threat to call the police, she receded her words.....proceeded to contact to the police herself first, and told them that I am no longer allowed on the property anymore to pick up or drop off my daughter. I will not say this school isn't great, because it really is. but the Front Office does not handle things appropriately. They should remain unbiased and neutral, but they do not.

The approach they take is unlike most preschools and daycares you see these days. There are always so many helping hands for each child, and they are treated with love and respect.

They are constantly engaged in pretend play, puzzles, beautiful artwork, long walks through the park, building snowmen in the snow....just being kids. All day, every day. I couldn't recommend this school more, as they have all become an extension of our family. They love our children like their own and really take the time to get to know each and every student.

Safety is the utmost importance. Classrooms small enough that teachers really know the students. No staff turnover. Kids are outside for a lot of the day, going on long walks on the pretty grounds and playing on the playground and basketball court. Solid curriculum too - at only 3 years old I'm constantly impressed by what he's learning. Special events held throughout the year that go above and beyond what's expected of a school - because they care that much. Our son has really blossomed and made so many friends since he's started. Every morning he runs in without so much as looking back to say bye to me! I never have to worry about my son while I am working which is all I can ask for - I know staff watch the kids like their own, and that he's having fun!

Always liked- now LOVE- Goddard Horsham! My daughter has…read moreattended Goddard for several months since I went back to work. The infant room program is excellent; the teachers are attentive and caring. Recently I received a call from Miss Megan (one of the owners) after I had picked up my daughter for the day. Megan called to let me know that the classroom teacher realized they had forgotten to send home two unused bottles of breastmilk. Normally, they would keep them for use the following day- but it happened to be a Friday. Immediately my heart sank, because Goddard observes strict time limits on storage of breastmilk/formula, and I knew that the bottles of liquid gold would not be able to be saved for Monday. I could have driven back to the school to pick them up, but instead Megan offered to drop them off to my house on her way home that night. Talk about service! The teacher didn't have to alert someone to the oversight. Megan didn't have to go out of her way on a Friday night to drop off my baby's bottles. But they did it anyway! Saving the world- one bottle of breastmilk at a time LOVE Goddard Horsham!

They also received a lot of emotional nurturing, and you could definitely feel the sincerity of the teachers, staff and owners in terms of their love for the children and their jobs. The Goddard School feels like a family/small community, where everyone knows you & your child's name. There are always fun family events to keep you connected to classmates and your child's development. Even now, whenever we drive by the school, the kids excitedly yell "our school!" as a testament to their fondness of their time there. We highly recommend The Goddard School of Horsham; looking back on our time there, it was definitely worth the investment!

Our daughter has attended Play and Learn Bryn Mawr since January 2018 and so far, we have had an…read moreoverwhelmingly good experience here. Susan, the director, has been very responsive and accommodating, and our daughter's teachers are loving and involved. I have found the building and outside area to be clean (the playground area is awesome), and I will echo one of the other parents that the teachers in the other rooms go out of their way to engage with parents and children who are not even assigned to their rooms. There is a nice sense of community here. In particular, Miss Saamara in the Cuddlebug room is outstanding. She is incredibly warm and sweet. Our child had some issues with separation anxiety at first and Miss Saamara would take her and walk her around the room while holding her, showing her pictures and talking to her in a soothing voice as I left. I would often pause for a minute outside the room to make sure my child stopped crying, and Miss Saamara always had her calmed within a minute or two. Now that she has adjusted to her classmates and teachers, our child is always happy and barely notices when we arrive to pick her up - she would rather keep playing! One of the other things I really liked about this program is that most of the teachers have been here much longer than other programs: 5-15 years. That made me very comfortable that the director knows the teachers well and that they are in this career because they love what they do. The reason for the 4 out of 5 star rating is that we have had two minor issues here, but I feel that these has been handled well by the teachers/director and were positively resolved. (a few late arrivals by a teacher which caused me to be late to work and one incident where I picked up my daughter and she had developed a high fever but I was not called. The teachers had not noticed due to it being about 80 degrees out and the children were outside playing.) Overall, I felt these incidents were minor and I felt the teachers and director responded quickly and appropriately to my concerns. I think that as we get more time under our belt here (we have only been enrolled 6 months) and no further issues arise, I would be very comfortable amending this rating to a 5 star.
