My eldest son went to this preschool for 2 years, and we loved it so much, we were thrilled to enroll his younger sister as well. Even with a change in teachers (one retired), we have found consistent warmth and care given. My son has gone on to excel in French immersion, and my daughter sings songs to herself as well as with her brother every day. The teachers are gentle, caring, and clearly love their work.
