The teachers reinforce important health, safety, and manners related behaviors. When discipline is necessary the teachers use redirection.  The best part is my daughter really loves the school and is very happy there. I would highly recommend Kehillah. Talk to families who have been there more recently. The currently director and assistant director are both fairly new and have done amazing work at the school.

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.

The director is always responsive and the teachers are caring, with many holding degrees in early childhood education. My daughter has grown and learned so much at her time "at school" and comes home saying new words and signing new signs and singing new songs almost every day. Most days she wants to keep playing when I come to pick her up. I've recommended this location to other friends looking for child care centers - we're happy with our decision to go with P&L in Bryn Mawr and look forward to our daughter continuing to grow and learn throughout her time there. There is a wait list so I'd suggest checking it out and getting on the list as soon as possible.

I love to see that my child is learning new things in daycare every day, having friends and caring teachers.

When you send your child to daycare, It is very important to know that there are teachers/staff that will give your child a good care, love, support and fill their day with fun, age appropriate learning activities. -Anzhela L.

My daughter had separation anxiety from me (even before enrolling in daycare) which made the transition very difficult emotionally.

Loves the environment and they've helped her so much with independent sleeping and keeping a great routine.

An added bonus is that they offer the day camp right next door so they attend daycare during the year and then head to camp in the summer. Can't recommend highly enough!

***DO NOT SEND YOUR CHILD HERE**** I don't post things like…read morethis lightly, but I feel a responsibility to share our experience in case it helps another child or family. Chesterbrook Academy - Newtown Square has been the worst childcare experience of my 13 years as a mom. In our experience, the environment was cold, harsh, and deeply unsettling. When children are sad or crying, they are placed in a so-called "cuddle corner" and intentionally ignored--no one is allowed to speak to or comfort them until they stop crying. Teachers follow a strict "no response" approach, meaning kids who are screaming, throwing, or clearly distressed are simply ignored. The level of rudeness, judgment, and lack of warmth from staff has honestly left me bewildered. My child came home crying many days, saying the teachers yelled at them--and I personally witnessed teachers yelling at children right in front of me. Leaving your child in someone else's care is already incredibly hard. You expect compassion, patience, and basic emotional safety. That was not our experience here. I can't speak to other Chesterbrook locations, but Chesterbrook Academy in Newtown Square is one I would strongly urge parents to avoid. If sharing this helps even one child have a safer, more loving experience elsewhere, it's worth it

I literally called them myself every few months on several occasions only to be told that we were "several down" on the waiting list each time. We paid the waitlist fee in August of 2021, and in late 2022, I got an email notification (out of nowhere) that we had been removed from the waitlist. By that time, luckily, we had already enrolled at The Goddard School, but thank God we weren't depending on the Malvern school, and thank God we had somewhere else to put our daughter. I had such a bad experience with them during the initial waitlist process that I'm sure we're better off not enrolling my daughter there anyway, since communication obviously isn't a priority for them. They currently have a sign up that says "Enroll now for Fall", which is laughable. More like "Enroll now and you might hear from us in 2 years, or maybe not at all, but we'll gladly take your money anyway." Do yourself a favor and look elsewhere. The Malvern School location in Malvern had a child abuse lawsuit filed against them, so I don't trust the entire Malvern franchise or any of their locations now, period.
