My two grandchildren have been attending the Learning Garden for the past few years. One boy is 4 yrs old and the other is 23 months, they have been attending since they were infants.
I cannot say enough about the quality of care. Every teacher is extremely caring and loving. A lot of thought goes into planning of the curriculum each week. The children are very well cared for, educated, and have lots of fun along the way.
The center, itself, is very well run, extremely clean, and each section is well thought out and very inviting and appealing to the eyes of a child.
Children learn healthy habits, they learn to play and care for and get along with others, making long time friends along the way.
As they age into the preschool years, the curriculum adjusts accordingly and they are well prepared for kindergarten.
All Office for Children's requirements are strictly adhered to, and monitored regularly. Communication between the center & the family is top notch.
I would highly recommend the center if you are looking for a warm, safe, loving and caring placement for your child while you are at work.

This is an excellent pre-school whose reputation is stellar. I had heard of this school from the home daycare he attended when he was three months old. I knew I was going to send him to The Learning Garden (even though at the time they did not yet offer full-time care and I was working full time).
If there was a better word for “supportive” I’d use it to describe the teachers, especially Mrs. Beth Downer. They make it easy to share personal stories about your kids. They have excellent listening skills meaning they don’t interrupt and you can see they are really absorbing what you are sharing (regardless of how many loud kids there are in the background). Their eagerness to be on the same page as you makes you feel like you are part of a united team there to work together and to propel your child forward with love and care.
Yes, this is only pre-school we’re talking about but this school is much more than “just” a pre-school. The Learning Garden cares about the education they are providing. They understand the needs and wants of young children. They are not too pushy except when it was in the best interest for your child. In our experience we are so thankful that they cared so much about our kid’s well-beings and their educational needs.
Two of our children have experienced both their full day care (they were one of the first enrolled) as well as the part-time pre-school program. The school’s curriculum, structure, and supportive environment are worth the investment. I can’t wait to send our next child to The Learning Garden.
