Mt. Vernon Place Early Learning Center

The BEST hands down ! My daughter started at 2 1/2 years old and stayed until going to Pre-k4 . Returning for summer camp. The staff is wonderful and trustworthy, treats you like family . The center gives love and support to all the children who attend . Miss Jalisa is phenomenal!

I submitted an application for my son 2 years ago. I never heard back from them. The application fee is nonrefundable, so I'm pretty unhappy.

My daughter was enrolled here for almost an year, and we all absolute loved it. The teachers are loving, my daughter is happy, and the management is professional. The only reason we are leaving is because we moved to a new house, and this place is unfortunately too far for us. Big thanks to all of my daughter's teachers like Ms Moe, Ms Arabia, Ms Jalisa and others!

Our son loves it here! He talks about his teachers constantly, is always telling us about new things hes learned, and we love the sweet way his teachers interact with him. They really go the extra mile to make special experiences - like the Valentines Day dance and dyeing eggs and seeing the Easter Bunny. We cannot recommend it enough.

We started my son here at 8 months old and my daughter at 3 months old (they are now 21 mo and 6mo). We couldn't be happier with the care they have been receiving. The teachers here have treated both of my children with so much love and warmth, it is obvious from the way my son happily sprints into the center every morning, and the huge smile on my 6 month olds face everytime she sees Ms. Mo, one of her providers. There is very little turnover, and the same people have been taking care of both of my kids the entire time they have been here. They have a curriculum in which the kids are doing something new and creative every day (with music, art, dancing, sign language, stories, etc), and even though the center doesn't have its own outdoor space, they go out to the park and local playground most days. There is also a very large indoor gymnasium so all winter the kids have a lot of active space to run and play. We really felt that the quality of the providers was exceptional, and even though we got off of a waitlist at a center that was logistically easier for us and closer to home, we chose to stay with MVPELC because our kids were so happy there. They are both developmentally thriving. The manager is also very responsive and clearly cares about the children and her staff. We are moving out of state and will be very sad to leave, as it is rare to find places like this that feel like part of your family. looking on yelp I see a lot of negative reviews, so it may be helpful to note that the place changed management around 2017 or 2018. We started in 2020 so I can't speak for how things were under the old management.
