Chesterbrook Academy Preschool

  My experience at Chesterbrook has been quite positive. I did a lot of research on local daycares before my son was even born, and one of the things I really appreciate was how responsive the principal, support staff, and teachers are. I received some advice from colleagues who have young children in daycare and they couldn't stress the importance of responsiveness enough. I had requested to speak with a parent of a currently enrolled student before making a final decision on enrollment, and I was quickly put in touch with a mother of a child in the Infant room who had only positive things to say about her experience. At another local daycare, the director never bothered to respond to this same request after I had made it known at a visit to that facility that I would like to speak with a parent, and after having sent two follow-up emails and left her a voicemail I still received no response whatsoever. After visiting Chesterbrook during an open house, I set up time to come back and speak directly with the head teacher in the Infant room and spend some time observing the school while children were in attendance. Lastly, on this point, I heard from a few other parents in my network - unsolicited - positive things about Chesterbrook. So this commentary provided another layer of assurance outside of my own personal research. My son really enjoys going to Chesterbrook. He likes his teachers, who are kind, patient, and caring, and I'm amazed at the skills he learns while he's there (from his affinity to 'playing' the xylophone to dabbling in arts and crafts, he gets to do a lot of different things). I believe he is well looked after, and I really enjoy the pictures they send of him during the day as well as the daily reports of his eating, sleeping, and diaper ‘activities’ we receive through the Tadpoles app. Very helpful! The Principal was recently on an assignment at another Chesterbrook school down South to get it up and running, and she has since returned. I honestly noted no issues while she was out, but it is nice having her back. I've observed that she demonstrates strong leadership and is very much on top of daily operations. We would recommend this daycare to our friends and family.
