I was able to connect with Ms. Winston after calling around for a reputable provider. After meeting with her for a couple of hours, I knew that my child would be in good hands.

She has a sincere way of spreading love and attention to every child in her center. I'm grateful that our paths crossed and believe that my daughter is too.

After reviewing many preschool options for my 3 year old boys, we started out at a fancy, expensive…read morecenter that had an amazing campus. My boys weren't very happy there and, although the center was amazing, the classrooms seemed overcrowded compared to what we were told the ratio would be. My autistic son has an aide who remains in the classroom with him and she reported to me that sometimes the room would be stuffed with children beyond the official capacity. We received a lot of behavior reports concerning my other son and, again, my aide reported that the classroom spent way too much time sitting at the table instead of letting the kids move around the classroom. The time spent outside was minimal, even though they had very beautiful playgrounds. I've spoken to several early childhood education experts who say that in this age range (under 5), you should look for centers that have more open play space than tables. You should also look for places that are less academically focused, since what's most important for kids this age isn't in memorizing facts, but learning how to get along with others, developing self-sufficiency, and enjoying the process of learning. Earthshine's Center isn't the prettiest of places, but don't let that fool you. My boys both absolutely love it and my one son's 'behavior problems' completely disappeared when we switched schools. My boys were never really happy to separate in the old school, but after about a week at Earthshine, they were eager to bound away from me. I think the format of Montessori - where the child leaves the parent instead of the parent leaving the child - helps tremendously. The best thing about Earthshine is that, if the weather is good, they are outside. Playing, eating, learning, is all done in a space that's big enough for the kids to really run around and burn off their energy (which makes bedtime easier for me). Inside the classrooms, the tables take up a smaller portion than any other center we toured. Children are encouraged in self-directed learning, but unlike many other Montessori centers, this one isn't as hands off as some are, which can cause some children problems in that they aren't given ANY direction. When we were considering this school, my son's behavior therapist warned us that Montessori schools can be either really good or really bad. The really bad ones basically have no structure and, while some children are motivated and interested enough in learning to complete their basic education on their own - many, if not most children, are not. This school is one of the really good ones. There's enough structure that my boys know their general plan for the day (lunch and nap happen in the same order), but enough flexibility to keep learning fun. Like any good Montessori school, they have 'observation stations' where you can watch your kids through a one-way mirror and observe them in the classroom. I see my boys select a playmat and toys, play with the toys on the mat, and then clean it up themselves. They've become much more independent since starting the school. Their special needs knowledge and accommodations are top notch and the best I've found. My autistic son has really benefited from attending. There are many schools that turn down an aide. We toured a lot of places and many refused to let my son's therapists in the classroom. To me, this is suspicious at the 2-5 year old age. A aide is trained to help the child inside their environment and it isn't like the other children will be distracted by another adult, who they see as just another teacher. It speaks volumes for the transparency of Earthshine that they allow aides provided they meet the state requirements with detailed background checks. We are moving soon and I'm going to miss Earthshine. I'm sure my boys will too.

I needed a place for him to be for a few hours in the afternoon while I handled a couple business matters upon talking to a friend of mine, they suggested Kid zone. Let me tell I'm glad I gave them a chance. Now I don't believe they normally take on short term students, but I explained my situation and the let my grandson attend. The price was not bad either surprisingly affordable compared similar options I looked at in the area. My grandson' attention span can be short, but he was so engaged with the staff, the lesson plan and the other student had a hard time getting him to leave when I came to get him, lol. The facility is a little older but very clean, and conveniently easy to get too just off Raeford Rd near the Skibo Rd. I highly recommend Kid Zone After School Care.

They not only teach about colors and ABCs but manners, social skills, all the way down to how to learn to drink from a cup. I am constantly bragging about this center. I was very hesitant, I'm sure as most moms are, to drop off my kids with strangers; but I have no concerns or worries when my kids are there. This center celebrates random holidays such as hot dog day or national ice cream day and is constantly involving families with treats. The center celebrates Mother's Day and Father's Day with the cutest hand made gifts. The center is clean and of course the live feed cameras you can check on your kids throughout the day with.
