What Parents are Saying

” …..The one-on-one with each student is phenomenal. They help each child and their specific needs. They can pinpoint if the child needs more work with something, like their speech. I am forever grateful for Playhouse and their teachers! They are not only teaching (kids) the education basics but helping us mold our boys into good kids. ….I highly recommend Playhouse! Not only do they teach your children and have fun with them but they become family! My boys absolutely LOVE going to school and even ask if they can go on a Saturday …”

“Playhouse … has been a godsend to our family and a wonderful place for our girls to learn and grow. The school is not just academically strong – it also is a loving and safe environment for our children…..The increasing diversity of the school allows our kids to be friends with a group of (children) that don’t always look like them ……I see proof in their skills (reading and writing in complete thoughts in kindergarten and a lot of pre-school projects) and their social interactions. The staff is knowledgeable and always helpful. I love that we have the option of having our children be there from pre-school through first grade, making the transitions to those more academic learning environments a lot easier….We could not ask for a better early education experience than Playhouse …”

“…The teachers and staff are nurturing and supportive. My children come home every day, happily talking about their teachers and friends. Since they began, they have developed immensely, both socially and academically. I have seen their confidence grow and their language explode…..They will be well-prepared for their elementary years…. My children have even attended during the pandemic and Playhouse has made us feel so safe. They take all the proper precautions to ensure our children’s well-being.”
