Parent Reviews
We absolutely are so happy we chose this preschool! Our daughter loves it so much. The teachers and staff are extraordinary. Love that there's two playgrounds, and an indoor gym for when the weather is bad. The summer camp is also excellent. A wonderful school all around. A+++
I am so happy we found Grace Playschool for our three year old. Being his first school environment experience our son was very happy and excited to see his teachers and classmates. Watching him so happy at drop off and pick up gave us a peace of mind and we knew he was in a safe place. He became very comfortable at Grace Playschool he kept asking to stay for longer hours in enrichment classes. He enjoys his after cooking class very much and we enjoy the samples too. Children learn through play and this is exactly what we found at Grace Playschool. We are glad he will continue the fours class this coming year. Thank you to all the staff, classmates and parents for a warm welcome.
This school holds such an important place in my heart. I attended Grace Playschool 35 years ago and met my life long best friends, my entire family has gone through those doors and now both of my kids. It is everything that you would want a Pre-School to be. The staff are certified and undergo the strictest of background checks, there is no pressure for kids to be potty trained by a certain age, and you know that the school is safe and well maintained. The school is pure magic, the teachers base their lessons in play which is backed by research as the most important way for children to learn in the early years. I cannot recommend this school enough. Especially since they are supportive and accommodating of students who also need special services. I speak from first-hand experience that they will work with speech, OT, PT, and special educators to make sure your child gets exactly what they need. There is a reason this school has been around for over 60 years.
We love Grace Playschool! This is a cooperative play-based preschool that focuses not only on early academics but on creativity, emotion regulation, and interpersonal skills. All 3 of my boys have grown tremendously from attending this school. They love to talk about butterfly life cycles, the amazing castles they built, the murals they paint, and how much they love playing with their friends. Play is an essential learning experience for our kids and I’m so glad we found Grace Playschool!
I cannot say enough about what an AMAZING nursery school Grace Playschool is. My daughter has been there since she was two and is now graduating Pre-k. We will truly miss all the wonderful people, we are so sad to be leaving. The director, teachers and staff are warm, understanding, kind and caring.. Being a teacher myself I appreciate their philosophy of providing learning opportunities for children in a developmentally appropriate way. Encouraging the children to learn social skills through play and navigate situations with gentle guidance. Our experience has been more than I could have ever asked for. I have watched my daughter learn and grow by leaps and bounds over the last three years. Being able to be a part of the learning experience by coming into the classroom was an added bonus!
Grace Playschool is a cooperative school that offers the best of both worlds to parents and their children. All 3 of my kids have attended and they are thriving - socially and academically. The curriculum is play-based and child focused meaning that kids are doing what they love, while being prepared for a love of learning (and getting all the important skills like listening, taking turns, following directions). Parents get to be involved in the school in varying capacities, which is a nice perk. The teachers are warm, nurturing, and love what they do. Can't say enough good things! A true gem!
This is such an amazing preschool. All four of my boys attended there over the past 8 years. When you drop your child off every day, it is such a comforting feeling knowing that they are in their care. The teachers are so incredibly warm, supporting and creative.
Amazing preschool! I had four children go here. They all came out of preschool with a love of learning, ready to take on Kindergarten and beyond. Teachers are knowledegable, caring and nurturing. Parent involvement is unmatched in the area. The space is also amazing, with two floors of actual classrooms, a large indoor gym space, and two large outdoor playgrounds.
