Testimonial: "My daughter has grown so much in the nurturing environment at Kids’ Central Preschool. She is excited every day to go to school and can’t wait to tell me what she learned when she comes home. The teaching team is amazing—they are flexible, adaptable, and incredibly supportive. As a parent, it’s great knowing the small class size means she receives plenty of attention throughout the day, and the flexible schedule let us pick what works for our family. We’ll be sad to leave Kids’ Central, but I am confident she has the foundation she needs to transition smoothly into kindergarten". (Erin - Local Mom)

Testimonial: “Maggie absolutely loved her experience at North Coast Preschool. We've been to so many schools around town, and for Maggie, this was the perfect fit. The gymnastics component was valuable for her age, but the small size and truly caring staff made it fantastic. She was well prepared for full time Kindergarten” Trevor,~Local Dad

Testimonial: "The preschool offers a huge variety of activities- art, reading, math, sensory play, outdoor play, Spanish, music, etc. I've been pleased with the unscheduled, mini-conferences available before or after school to check-in. The teachers (and whole staff!) are flexible and understanding when it comes to family needs, schedules, and all the unusual requests that come with having a four-year-old! I couldn't be happier with our experience! " ~ Treasure, Local Mom
