being a working mom it's important to find a daycare that you trust.You can't be wondering at work is my baby, toddler eating, are they happy, did they do this or that? Every day when I drop off my 6, 3 and 1.5 yr old kids I know they are in the best possible care without being next to me. As with any relationship it takes both parents and staff to communicate and that is the area where this school excels. From their tadpole application with photos shared through out the day, weekly planning activities and menus sent out, quick response to emails, and of course manning the phone lines - This is just the front desk. The teachers are on a whole other level! I know each of my kids are getting the attention they need by being notified at pickup of eating habits, seeing them on the floor with the kids during playtime and the weekly bags of art work that are sent home. My kids come home talking about their teachers and friends.
If there is anything you take away from this post I would say this
1. Like you the staff takes the well being of your child with the highest priority
2. This school communicates with you
3. Kids come home with full bellies (Mom of a picky eater seeing him clean his lunch plate is HUGE accomplishment)
4. You see your money being put back into the school - from family activities, building upgrades, to special guests visiting (which almost seems weekly)
