The entire staff at Everbrook has created an all around positive and nurturing environment for our preschooler. It starts with the top leadership under Hannah and Faith who lead by example and takes care of their team by valuing them. When teachers are happy our children are happy. The school is always clean and maintained. The teachers are always finding creative and innovative ways to create fun learning environments. The leadership isn't over the top or overbearing with communication or requests from the parent community. The principals and teachers here are beyond dedicated, putting in long hours to make sure every child, parent or guardian leaves satisfied and things are in order for the following day. Let's be real, everything costs money and inflation is out of our control, but when it comes to knowing your child is safe, loved, having fun, learning, and being prepared for the next level of education, that is priceless. We have watched our child blossom in Ms. Paola's pre-K classroom. We couldn't be more appreciative. Ms Emily, the junior pre-K teacher was just nominated for Teacher of the Company and made it to the top 4. Without a doubt, we would recommend Everbrook to other parents.

Coming from someone who has gone to this daycare as a school ager, there is a lot of favoritism toward the kids that are related to the owners, or just specific kids in general. You can't expect them to be perfect of course, but the amount of good memories don't necessarily outweigh the frustrating or "bad" memories. We would play tons of super fun games and go on mini field trips, but the teachers had a few too many bad days I guess. Idk there seemed to be less respect for some kids than others, so I guess think about your child's experience that they may have while considering paying them.

Out little boy had not attended daycare prior to this, and he has gone from crying when we dropped him off to jumping out of the car to go and be with his friends and teachers. The program director Ms. Sheila is just an amazing woman with bottomless wells of patience and kindness for these children. The entire staff is terrific. She really treats them like they are her own kids. If you want a daycare solution (and preschool soon), that really is something better than the average place that just warehouses kids, then Caring for Angels is the solution for you. They have done some great fieldtrips and the kids were even in the Warrenton, Va downtown parade on a float. It is associated with the True Deliverance Church of God.

After a couple of weeks, he is happy to see his teachers and friends. The Nanda Learning Center is great with communicating with what is needed, I.e more diapers and wipe, to communicating any situation that may have occurred during the day. The center is also has very strict COVID guidelines and managed to get our son to wear a mask the entire day. I am very happy with our son's progress and development. The staff is doing an excellent job helping him learn new things.

The director is young and inexperienced and hasn't been given the appropriate training or guidance in her position. She could thrive if she was given these skills. However, parents are spoken to passive aggressively, bribed with writing positive reviews to get $100 removed from 1 weeks tuition, the handbook is shoved down our throats, but not even followed by the center. I'm so disheartened by the way Nanda's went down hill. We're grateful to be parting ways with Nanda's and wish the director gets what she needs to be successful, have the kids treated kindly, and build the morale of the childcare center.

Everbrook Academy of Gainesville has been a Godsend for our family. If I could give this daycare…read moremore stars, I would. We were part of Everbrook before Ms Tina made the courageous decision to shut the school down and clean up shop. She really got rid of the drama, cleaned up the space, and made it into a professional daycare/school. During the time it was shut down, we went to Everbrook Bristow which was great but too far away for our family. We then went to another daycare.... And the experience was awful. We were in a school which teachers did not engage with the children and did not care when children were fighting in the classroom. Our daughter started having nightmares, picking up these unwanted behaviors, and started having the most intense tantrums. I reached out to Principal Tina, she sat down with my husband and I for a couple hours while we explained the situation and what we needed help with. Ms Tina assured us we would be a team and Everbrook would be professional at all times. And let me tell you, we have a completely different child in about a month of coming back to Everbrook. My child's language abilities have exploded! She's 2 and asking "can I play with you?". She also says many 3-4 word sentences. Her behavior has immensely improved and we have not had ANY nightmares! Her teacher, Ms Huesna, really knows what she's doing. I see her down engaging with the kids and creating activities for the kids to learn all the time! Everbrook Academy of Gainesville is where you want to send your children for them to THRIVE!

Our family had a very poor experience at this center. I should have trusted my instinct during the…read moreenrollment process when the center leaned about my child's minor disability and demanded I complete a reasonable accommodation form prior to his start date. My 2 year old is in a physical therapy program, during the pandemic his therapy was strictly virtual.I was required to sign a document that stated "should the center be unable to reasonably accommodate my child's needs" he would be disenrolled. I assured the director Sarah Zirzow that he was an independent and active average 2 year old they did not need any "special" privileges or accommodations yet we were still denied a fair treatment. I took her actions as a simple inexperience in working with children with disabilities and abided by the rules. 1st day the incident reports began piling up. He was sent home with multiple reports of violent behavior which sounded nothing like my child. The director made the decision to not allow him to come back for the remainder of the week and put together a 3 strike contract terminating him from the program. My child was disenrolled in less than 3 weeks. I have made over a dozen contacts to the corporate office at the Learning Group asking for a call back and no one has yet to return my call. The center charged us for a month and a half worth of daycare expenses and has made further unauthorized charges against our checking account 4 weeks after his disenrollement date. A billing specialist at the leaving group finally informed me that my refund would not mailed for 7-9 weeks! I have sent multiple emails since requesting videos of the allegations, copies of incidents they reported that were never provided to me, an explanation to my refund.. none of which have been responded to. The center staff was very pleasant during the enrollment process but have very little to no experience in managing an educational program and caring for small children. The new center has not reported a single incident in nearly 4 weeks.... I feel so guilty putting my child through whatever happened at this center during that 3 weeks and not trusting my first instinct. Below is a link to the Virginia State licensing violation against this center showing clear negligence, poor training by this staff. https://www.dss.virginia.gov/facility/search/cc2.cgi?rm=Inspection;Inspection=111266;ID=44548;search_contains_zip=20155;search_keywords_name=Everbrook%20;search_require_client_code-2101=1 Courtney R.: I have. I have called MULTIPLE times and requested a call back. Took Stephanie over a month to call me back to tell me there was a miscommunication and that my unfortunate experience would be used to better train your staff. That's comforting to know. I was also promised a same day update on my refund which was 4 days ago. All I got was an email that said you'll contact me back with an update. You have my information and know how to contact me yet you don't. Your 800 number is useless

I scheduled a tour on Monday for Thursday and received a confirmation. When we arrived at…read moreKinderCare, a woman in the front office let us in. She was talking on the phone, so I presume the door overwhelmed her because she displayed absolutely nothing but chaos. She asked me the age of my child, I told her. She gave me a note pad to fill out contact information. She told me that the school sends a bus there, they don't transport to that particular school... which is fine. After that she excused herself and went to the restroom. When she returned she told me they only have 46 slots with 52 kids already... I guess they don't go by ratio. I looked at her and smiled, that's what I do when I'm annoyed but want to be kind. I asked why I didn't receive a call because I took off work for the tour. Again in an overwhelmed state she says "I am the only one here today, the online scheduler just sends things in, I've been very busy today." As though her busy was superior to my time and responsibilities. After all, that's the job. I calmly told her, still smiling, I also work and am very busy, in addition to having a disabled child getting ready for brain surgery and touring schools... but I still can manage to RSVP regret. She ask, "if you'd like I can give you a tour and when"... I told her no, no thanks. As I was walking out I summed it up to a blessing for seeing what it would have been like there. The first impression did not display positive control. They must be one of the more affordable daycares around because I was not interested after that.

My oldest son, at age 5, just graduated from the private kindergarten program at Lake Manassas…read moreAcademy, and my younger son, at 20 months, is currently in the day care there. I have been overwhelmingly pleased with both programs, and the amount of growth and development both boys have shown since enrolling is incredible. Without exception, I have found the teachers and administrators to be warm, attentive, and caring, and always generous with their time. Perhaps best of all, the school feels... calm. Compared to other schools we considered, the classrooms are large, the number of students per teacher seems far lower, and nothing ever feels crowded or rushed. Everything feels taken care of and relaxed. This is borne out by the attitude of my sons when I go to pick them up, as they always seem content and happy. I have looked at other programs, and at other schools, and now that my five year old has graduated into the public school system, it would be convenient to move my younger son to another facility. But I won't. Lake Manassas has always done a superlative job of looking after him, and I wouldn't risk taking him anywhere else. I would HIGHLY recommend this facility. Ms. Caitlin and her staff run a very, very good ship.

The summer school bus did not pick him up at Winwood like the schedule said it would, so Aracely, the Winwood Director, drove our son to school. The summer school disorganization continued with the school expecting our son to show himself to his new classroom in a school he had barely been in. Aracely personally walked our son into the school and made sure one of the teacher assistants would show him to his room. Aracely is exactly why our kids go to Winwood, with our kids safety in mind and go out of their way to help out in stressful situations.
