Parent Reviews
My son has been at this preschool since he was just 6 weeks old, and now at 1.5 years, I couldn't be happier with the care he receives. The school truly feels like a family community, and his teachers, Ms. Angelique and Ms. Diana, provide such a safe, loving, and nurturing environment. They thoughtfully plan fun, educational, and interactive activities that spark curiosity and joy in the classroom. I feel so grateful knowing my son is cared for by such wonderful teachers every day!
I registered my child to a kindergarten and the staff was extremely helpful assisting me filling the application.
via YelpI can't imagine a better experience for my daughter. I was referred to this campus from numerous friends and I was not disappointed. They helped my daughter adjust to school and were always patient and loving with her. Updated us on the daily portal and ultimately helped my daughter adjust to leaving the house for school with Ms Vivi and Ms Eunice. We love all the staff and principal at this location.
We found Merryhill Preschool after a bad experience at another preschool going under new management. We were looking for a safe, clean, caring and challenging environment for our bilingual, very active son. We also wanted a good balance of school structure and play/ability to be himself. We have found everything and more at Merryhill Durango. The principal, Miss Maria, and her staff and teachers care so deeply about the children AND the families. It was as simple as that: drop off had always been an absolute nightmare of tears and screaming, and in the span of a week, my son was happy to go to school and barely looking back at me while entering the school. Nothing else was needed to be said. Then entered COVID. I was SO impressed with the way Miss Maria handled the transition to distance learning. My son was STILL thriving!!! We have been back in school full time since October now : a) the health protocol is top notch. We feel safe to send our son to school, he stays with his cohort, sanitizing is ongoing throughout the day. b) the student to teacher ratio is appropriate, and we feel our son is getting the attention and care he needs c) the curriculum is on par with kids who want to learn (which is the case for my son). d) communication with staff/teachers is regular ( you get pictures throughout the day and a full report at end of day on activities, if your child ate and what, and if they nap etc) Overall, I could not be happier with this preschool. I would highly recommend ( and have to anyone asking). our son is more than ready to enter Kindergarten and continue to succeed!
Amazing school with terrific teachers! We love our family here, highly recommend this place!
Wow where do I even begin ? Let's just start off by saying five stars should be a ten star rating this school is amazing . I moved here 3 years ago and I always told myself I was putting my child in private school no matter what . I had never heard about Merryhill it was always Challanger that everyone told me about and recommended . So of course I looked into it. I never toured the campus and at the time your child had to be potty trained to enroll . It wasn't until my sister signed her son up for a summer program at Merryhill that I found out about them. She had nothing but good things to say . I called and set up an appointment and toured the campus with Mrs.Taylor during Covid which was awesome i'm glad they still had the opportunity. I knew once I left the campus that's where I wanted my daughter to attend . I love the staff everyone is so caring , they provide breakfast , lunch and a snack . I know when my child uses the restroom , what she ate or didn't eat and I also get picture updates throughout the day of her doing some activity . The communication is great and the class size and teacher to student ratio is perfect . I am very pleased to be a Merryhill parent.
