Parent Reviews
We are so lucky to have found Paragon Prep Preschool for our daughter! As first time parents, we were so nervous to find a great daycare that would take good care of her while also being interactive and educational. We hit the jackpot! The infant room, led by Ms. Alisha, Ms. Betty and Ms. Eunice, is the best! They all love and care for the babies as if they were their own. They do SO MANY different activities and even include them during scheduled STEM, Spanish and music time. Every other teacher and administrator we have interacted with had always been a positive experience. They know all the children by name and make you feel like you're at home. We are really grateful for everyone there and look forward to seeing our daughter grow at Paragon.
This is our daughter's second year at Paragon Prep Preschool and we absolutely recommend this school! The teachers are kind, loving, and patient. The kids, including our daughter, are relaxed and happy at school. Along with the fantastic teachers, the administration plays a big part in this. The director, Ms. Laura, assistant director, Ms. Jessica, office manager, Ms. Lori, and admin assistant, Ms. Edirika, all clearly care so much about the school and all the kids that go there. They plan fun family events, have excellent communication with parents, and greet every single kid by their name. We're so appreciative for everyone at Paragon Preschool!
