Angel's Nest Preschool

"Such a welcoming staff and teachers. My daughter is always greeted when coming in. Her teachers welcomed her and made her feel loved and special even when she was having a tough time adjusting. You can tell these teachers are highly educated and care about the children and their well being. They even provide nutritious snacks and lunches everyday. I’m so grateful for the wonderful education my preschooler is receiving here. 10/10 highly recommend."

"I'll list the PROS and CONS below. This is a nonprofit school that is great with children. My sister had her children go there 8 years ago. Now both my children go there and I'm very happy. So are they ☺️ PRO -Facility: clean and very secure. -Location: In the pocket/greenhaven. Parking lot is huge since it shares with the church. Tucked in but within walking distance of bus stops, grocery stores and restaurants. -Security: 2 separate play area that are fenced in. There's keypad lock entry, multiple security cameras inside and outside. Teachers have walkie talkies, there's a front desk and the director's office is near the entrance. Staff is routinely checked on for support. Multiple secure exits for emergencies. -Food:Theres 2 stovetop ovens to make hot nutritious meals in 1 of 2 kitchens. Children sometimes help prepare the foods like cutting cookies. Monthly menu printed out for parents. My daughter never liked salads before, but now she enjoys them. -Teachers and staff: All teachers are certified. They are friendly, trustworthy and extremely adaptable to unique situations from working with therapists to special diets. Staff also very friendly and helpful. Every few days, teacher Valorie updates the parents of her class via 'remind' app of what the children did that day and what are the future planned activities will be. -Classrooms: very large rooms with multiple activity and play areas. Every child has individual storage cubbies and sleeping nap mats. -Bathrooms: Every classroom has 2 bathrooms with children sinks and children toilets. Children height Soap & paper towel dispensers encourage them to wash hands after using the bathroom. Teachers are able to monitor children using the bathroom without ever having to leave the classroom and activities are not interrupted because 1 child has to use the bathroom. -Education: structured setting with encouragement of Independence and creativity. Also teaches about God and the Bible. They have weekly education plans that are catered to the children. I love how excited my children are bringing home projects or talking about school. From pet insects to discovering oceans and forests, there's always something new each day. To help measure their individual progress, angels nest uses the QRI system. -Playground: 2 separately fenced play areas. 1 has 2 large playsets and other one has 1 miniature playset. They are in the process of building another large playset area. -Technology: computerized check-in. They use remind app to communicate between teachers and parents. Credit card tuition payment computer station. But for those who are not tech savvy, they also have paper check in, paper calenders/activity/project/meal updates. They also accept checks and have payment drop boxes. -Price: very affordable & lowest in the area because it's a nonprofit. Cooked meals included with tuition. Church also helps supplement with scholarships and donations. The school hosts occasional fundraisers like crab feed, parents night out, etc. There's a Sibling discount and Church member discount if you choose to become a member of Greenhaven church (which is not required). They accept child action for parents who need assistance with child care. I've checked other schools/daycare like Montessori, Merryhill, kinder Care, forever Friends, etc. Unlike some of the other daycare/schools, there's no material fees, no meal fees, no uniform costs, no ridiculous high priced application fees or expensive tuition fees. Overall, this is the best bang for your buck without any sacrifice on quality. How do they do it? One word: Nonprofit. They put the money back into the teachers, supplies, children, etc. They won't charge more than what's needed vs other daycares where profit requires high cost and fees. CON Age limit: They only take children 2 and up. I had to wait til my daughter turned 2 before I could take her here. I wish one day they choose to be licensed to take infants so parents can have their little ones enjoy the benefits from such a great school."

"Wonderful teachers and great staff"
