Chesterbrook Academy Preschool

"I had two boys recently attend Chesterbrook Academy . Our family moved to another location, so we had to change their schools, but I always felt the staff genuinely cared for the well-being and the development of their students. My older son was timid and shy, but he became active and made many friends while he was there. Overall, it was a great experience for both of my boys and I'd definitely recommend Chesterbrook to anybody."

"My children attended Chesterbrook Academy Spring St. for a little over a year. We would still be there if we didn't have to relocate due to work. They went through three different grade levels during that time and I can say that I was unsure about the teachers and curriculum/facility at the start. Some teachers I found rude, uninterested, and ineffective communicators. However, since those teachers and Principal have left, this daycare has been nothing but great. The new Principal, Ms.Emma, is a wonderful addition to the school as she communicates very well with parents, is warm towards the children and cares about their learning and well-being. My children enjoyed coming to school everyday and learned many new life skills. Miss Lidia is a true gem of the school and my older child loved her. Ms. Ana, Ms. Kathy, Ms. Shannon and Ms. Kumari are also fantastic teachers. The school has a neat app that you are able to message the teachers on and also receive a day report at pickup with pictures and notes. The playground could probably use more shade but it is large with new equipment. I would recommend this daycare to anyone based on curriculum, staff, safety, and communication."

"This preschool has been a wonderful experience for my daughter Willow. She never wants to leave school when I pick her up and she is learning so much! All of the staff here are wonderful and caring. I got to know Ursula from Willow's very first class; she is so sweet, attentive and caring of every child in her care. I can't wait to get to know more teachers as Willow grows up here!"

"My child left this daycare about a year ago, and I wasn't initially going to post a review but after running into a couple of parents who had similar experiences, I decided to leave a review. My child attended Chesterbrook for about a month and a half, during the first two weeks they were happy about attending their first school. However, they quickly started getting really upset on their way to school. My child knew where we were going and ended up even more upset once they saw the teachers. I didn't think anything of it at first and just thought it was separation anxiety. However, one of the teachers admitted to yelling at the children when they try to access the cabinets. Additionally, when we spoke to the director initially, we were told they have no TV time. This was not the case and several times they just had a tablet set to cocomelon to pacify the children. I recently spoke to another parent with similar experiences, to include abnormally short playground times (5 minutes), ignored complaints, and having their questions ignored about why none of the children smiled in the photographs. My child was in the youngest classroom for reference, I don't know if the older classes are better, we didn't stick around to find out. I see a lot of super positive reviews on here and I don't want to discount their experiences, just share mine. My child goes to a new school and their reactions were better. Best of luck to parents out there."

"I'm very happy we chose Chesterbrook Academy for our children. My now toddler has been attending since he was 1, and the teachers have been great in all 3 class levels. They care, they communicate, and have an effective curriculum. Our todddler's language skills and knowledge are advanced for his age, and as much as I'd like the credit, I think it's because of school. Our baby is in the infant room, and she is smiles all day, never fussy at drop off and reaches for her teacher. Overall, the teachers and administration are kind and communicative. They have a great app that sends daily reports and photos, and you can also message the teachers directly, it's great! The facility is very nice and clean, and they have a great playground. Highly recommend!"
