"The teacher is kind. A bit messy as the director is out on maternity leave. No one contacted me about starting school and couldn't find my paperwork on the first day. The past few days the acting director seems more smoothed out. Definitely a bunny transition and understandably so. A bit disappointed they don't have the resources to meet where my child is at. He's already reading and doing math but they are still doing the alphabet with all the kids. I was hoping for more structured learning but see the kids playing with stations/toys a majority of the time my son is there for. Not really seeing the STEM curriculum in action for my UPK 3 hours. That was my main reason for choosing this school."

"We changed from a daycare that did not have a solid curriculum. Since our child has been at this school (less than 2 months) her confidence, skill levels, and knowledge have dramatically increased. She is more confident in her abilities and is so excited to go to school each day."

"i overall LOVE everything about the facility, the teachers and the atmosphere. the only occasional issue is allowing our daughter to nap for a long period of time when we are trying to prepare her for kindergarten where she will not get naps."

"We love this school and the staff!!!"

"Staff needs to be nicer and care for the children’s needs and parent's concerns."

"Great experience so far! Engaged teachers, good communication, SproutAbout app works well, affordable."

"Overall it has been great! My child seems happy when I pick her up at the end of the day. the teachers and directors and approachable and very nice. they seem to have a good connection with my child."

"It was good until I realized the poor treatment Annette K has towards the toddlers 1 and disappointed with the lack of attention towards the children and lack of actions taken when other kids bite or hit other kids they say in the incident reports tact they washed and iced the bite when it’s not true I’ve been it happen and they don’t do anything about it nor stop the child from hitting another child since they don’t pay enough attention to the kids"

"School has been a great experience for my little one for social and educational reasons. Seems like the school have had recent increased in tuition which is a hard adjustment. But overall I am pleased with the school. I would like to see more structured learning activities that were promoted during our first visit to the school. I have not seen or gotten may updated on projects lately"

"Thornton is great! Love the staff. We were at a La Petite in Virginia (Dumfries) prior to moving here, and this staff is a lot better than the VA staff"

"Great communication with teachers and staff. My twins have fun learning and making new friends."

"I feel like a facility is only as good as the director and their ability to nurture and provide resources to their staff. I really feel like the current director and assistant are quite fitting for this school. I do not see a high turnover, so this is also a good sign that the staff is happy where they are. My kids don’t drag their feet to go in the mornings, and don’t seem overly worn out at pick up. So I feel there is a perfect balance with activity for their age groups. If I had only one criticism it would be I feel like corporate should allocate some monies to update the interior of the building. Even though dated, it doesn’t take away from the quality care that is provided. But it would be nice if they refreshed it a bit for the ladies working there."

"Staff is great! Loving and caring and extremely family-oriented environment. They communicate extremely well."

"Excellent communication between teachers and us as parents. Being able to give both of our children the attention they need and to focus on providing them each with a positive experience is crucial. They are both excelling in their specific areas and they are continually improving in those areas where they need more guidance and help."

"The director and teachers are always friendly and helpful when I have questions or concerns."
