Kensington School of LaGrange

Ms. foreman might be the best daycare teacher Ive ever met! Cant believe how great she is with the kids and how much they develop with her. The leaders of the school (Lauren and Lauren) are super helpful and awesome, too! Highly recommend!

This is a very well known school that has been very disappointing to a parent who has been through the daycare system over 13 years ago with my daughter who is now a senior in high school.  I feel so sorry for first time moms who do not know how good daycare was 13 years ago.  I guess daycares only thrive when the school has a good director.  LOVE the teachers but I do not recommend this place due to the director only wanting perfect kids attending.  Beware of that.  Very sad how they will try their best to push your child out but then say "we are only in the best interest for the kids."  How is this in the best interest of my child when you are actually hurting the child and setting them back and taking them out of their routine.  What she has done is mean and very shocking coming from this type of a school.  This was once a great school but not anymore and when telling my story to other parents and friends and teachers, alot are saying the same thing about the La Grange location and shocked. Hopefully upper adminstration does a clean up and finds the right person to run the establishment better and bring back the directors who made this place thrive once upon a time.

They don't post their policies for review and the ones the do post contradict others. They also steal huge deposits from families so be aware what you sign your child up for. They may have once been a great establishment but that is no longer the case. They are not doing the same things they used to as far as enriching your children but they are still taking the same if not more tuition fees for non service.

We've had multiple children through the program. The staff is wonderful, attentive, and kind. The curriculum is engaging and thoughtful.

We've had good experiences overall with our 2 children at the Kensington in LaGrange, *until our 3-year-old came home and said a strange political comment completely out of nowhere. Our child told us her teacher made the same derogatory remark (regarding the Presidential Administration, specifically the current POTUS) and said she was just repeating what her teacher had told the class. We brought the issue to the Director's attention. The Director denied it occurred without saying they'd even speak to the teacher about it. The Director did not assure us in any way that they would investigate or discuss it with the teacher. Nothing. Simply told us we were mistaken, because their policy is not to discuss politics. Kensington took no responsibility whatsoever - a complete disregard of accountability. Please speak to your children and ask them what they learned today. I've heard of high school teachers or professors giving their political opinions to students, but to 3-year-olds.. in preschool? My wife and I were and are extremely upset and disappointed in how Kensington handled this. We believe this issue is solely with 1 teacher at that location.
