Kindercare in Collegeville is the best of the best. When I first started looking for daycares I was…read morevery worried to leave my only child with someone. From the tour to the first day was nothing short of amazing. The whole staff was welcoming and kind. The place is clean and very well organized. They provide diapers and wipes in the infant room! I get daily reports and often chat with the teachers when I pick my daughter up. As a first time Mom with little family around I find myself asking the teachers lots of questions. They are always very helpful. Wish I had know there was a pediatricians office next store before I picked my daughters doctor or we would probably be going there too. I highly recommend Kindercare.

I keep going back and forth about writing this review, but as a former Kindercare parent I wish…read moresomeone had told me this before I made the decision to send my child there. Let me first start by saying that we were happy with most of the teachers there. Miss Faythe is incredible and I always knew my child was safe with her. That being said, the turn over in staff here is ridiculous, and there were weekly closures of classrooms because staff abruptly quit or did not show up. The biggest issue for me was the cleanliness of the facility. The kid bathrooms were disgusting and always smelled. My son would come home daily with black knees from crawling around on the carpet. The worst was the bug and rodent issue. The final straw for me was finding out from another parent about the roaches, mice, and bed bugs present in the facility. Never once was this location closed for cleaning or treatment of these pests. Parents were never notified about the possibility of bed bugs. It is so disheartening to hear that the health and safety of my child was put at risk due to the lack of concern over the space my child played and napped on.

Mrs Sara, Liz, Caitlin, Mrs Susman, Mrs brin and so many more go over and beyond for the families of Chesterbrook Academy. Safety at Chesterbook is clearly a top priority for the children. I wholeheartedly recommend Chester brook Academy. I also couldn't be happier with the growth and care the children received here. I've seen the curriculum and attention provided at every level of the center, and I've been impressed every step of the way. The kids literally run into the center each day, excited to see their teachers and friends. The staff also does an amazing job preparing the children for Kindergarten. I truly see the staff as an extension of the family. I am so thankful to know them all.

Goddard school Newtown square: 1 child in school, started…read moreat 2.5 years old, now 4. Cost is $1,700/month. My child is currently enrolled at the Goddard School in Newtown Square, PA. While the staff and teachers are friendly, for $1,700/month for one child (2+ years old) I don't feel we get the experience that we're paying for. To start, the program is not tailored to the individual child's needs. So, if you believe your child would benefit to go up one class (within reason of course) you're given a nonchalant "we don't do that" response. The school's drop off and pick up procedure is honestly something straight out of hell. To the parents with more than one child - you're saints. The school seems terribly under staffed, which is ridiculous because the building is very small with a large number of kids. On a consistent basis, you will go to your child's classroom to pick them up to find out they're not in their classroom because they were moved to a different room due to staffing. Also, routinely the children do not go outside. During inclement weather is one thing, but too often it's apparent the teachers and other staff find it easier for them if the children don't go outside (I.e., it's too hot or too cold for the teachers). Frequently, teachers don't greet you or are busy on their cell phones rather than paying attention to the children. Additionally, the playground area is very small and limited particularly for a class size of 20 children (that's just my child's class, I don't know the sizes of other classrooms). Frequently the communication from the school lacks professionalism, including proper punctuation and grammar, leaving me to wonder what they are teaching my child. On more than one occasion my child's name has been horribly misspelled on their belongings. On one hand it's no big deal, but given it's a learning environment and they are in a critical period of learning how to read and write, I feel like this should be a given. It is also apparent that the school's owner and administrators are more concerned for what is most convenient for them rather than the school as a whole. Running a school I'm sure is no easy feat. It would be beneficial for Goddard NTS to bring someone in to aid in running the operation more effectively and efficiently. Last, my child has experienced multiple minor incidents where she gets hurt. The school completes their incident report and will notify you. When you get the story from the teacher though we're constantly left with asking "well where was the teacher." Our reason for staying at the Goddard School comes down to other schools' availability (and lack there of). That said, I would like to note while some of the teachers lack enthusiasm even though they teach children under 5, there is still a significant number of teachers who put the children first and are adored by the children. I can't say enough about Ms. Rosetta, Ms. Stephanie, and Ms. Dana. They are fabulous, always very helpful, and attentive. And, although I have my concerns, for the most part I would say my child enjoys going to school (as much as any toddler would). Fun fact: Be cautious of Google reviews about the Goddard School Newtown Square. I posted this on Google but the school won't post it.

My daughter…read morehas been there since the infant program (starting at 7 months) and at two-years-old, I've seen her progression and development in leaps and bounds. The curriculum is fantastic, the teachers are wonderful and highly credentialed and the owner is fantastic - she gets to know every child and family. My daughter comes home with new skills every day that blow me away (they teach them sign language). It is not just a school, but a second home. There is so much warmth and love and attention there. I couldn't recommend it more. I plan to keep her there through preschool, knowing that it's not only the best education she'll get but the best care.

I cannot stress enough how wonderful the Malvern location is now, and it's due to Steve and Barbara's leadership.
