Excerpts from Parent Letters

McNair Farms Children's Center November 2005

"We have had a wonderful experience here (at McNair Farms). My Daughter was given a wonderful opportunity to grow with friends. The front desk staff & special teachers are terrific!"

Germantown Children's Center March 2004

"Thank you for making our sons first experience at GCC the most fabulous beginning ever. He adores each and every one of you! We feel so comfortable knowing that he is well cared for, safe, and loved everyday. The proof of his comfort is that when we come to pick him up at 4pm, we rarely leave the center before 5pm. You are truly a dedicated group of teachers who always put the children first. We love looking through the window and watching the learning progress. Our Sons interest in learning and experiencing new things continues to expand since he started at GCC in August. For this and so much more, we thank you! On the ride home he is eager to share his fun filled day. He begins with breakfast, moves on circle time, art projects, show and tell, baking, the playground, stories, songs, more stories (which he loves), and so much more! We are so impressed with the developmentally appropriate program he receives."

Ashburn Children's Center May 2005

"I am writing to thank all of the "other mothers" at Ashburn Children's Center, and "other fathers", or perhaps "other parents" I should say, because that is what you are. Each member of your staff is playing a big part in the raising of my children, all of our children here-not something I take lightly, and although I run in and out each day, busy on my way with my own life, not something unnoticed or unappreciated. Every member of your staff is helping to mold my children, helping them learn and grow, teaching them to be healthy, to become good neighbors, and patient playmates, helping them to have fun, and to discover themselves as they go. This is no small undertaking-critical business in my book, and you are excelling at it by what I have experienced so far. There is much love and respect at ACC; warm, caring teachers and aids, directors and Cliff! Thank each of you for sharing yourself and you wonderful qualities each day with my children, and so with me as well. It may not be mentioned every day, but it is noticed and I am grateful for your work. I am sure every parent here feels this way; we just don't always take the time to express it. Thank you for all you do, every day."

Sully Station Children's Center September 2005

"Our family joined your family in June 2004. From the beginning we've been impressed with the team member's dedication to the center's children. Most importantly, and the value closest to our hearts, is the loving care given to our children. We have experienced continued professionalism and childcare knowledge with all members of your staff regardless of their position within the center. Clearly you are employing individuals with a true desire to share their lives with children- it shows in their enthusiasm. My Youngest child, in 3A enjoys the activities in the room and is learning something new every day. Their (the teachers) level of enthusiasm shows and I believe the children thrive as a result! My school age daughter attends the Sully Station after school program. She sings high praises for (her teachers) in the Before/After School program. I know she's having a great time with them-she's always filled with stories about the fun things she did. When you're seven years old it's all about having fun! As a parent I'd like to thank you for putting together such a solid group of individuals to care for children."

Kentland's Children's Center March 2005

"From early learning activities to creative arts to outdoor play and special celebrations, KCC's commitment to providing a safe and nurturing atmosphere that puts children first is the key to satisfying our childcare objectives. While we initially considered KCC for it's nearby location (we live in Kentland's), I can honestly say that I would commute from further away to keep my children in this wonderful program. Our daughter has thrived in the KCC environment-her social skills have improved, she has learned to spell her name, her creativity is encouraged and she even counts in Spanish! KCC's team approach ensured our daughters seamless transition from Group 1 to Group 2 as she got older and we've also appreciated KCC's partnership as we've tackled potty training. It is worth noting that KCC provides plenty of opportunities for parent participation and involvement through activities and special events and through open and regular communication (including daily reports on activities!) The teachers are consistently warm, loving, enthusiastic, well-trained, creative and inspired. The office staff is friendly, helpful, and professional. In particular, the Director really seems to care about each of the children and Kentland's families. And last but not least, the cook is fantastic! The facility itself is clean, well-organized, and secure and the hours of operation are very generous, a must for working parents with long commutes!"

Kentland's Children's Center November 2005

"It has been a wonderful 3 ½ years! Thank you for taking such good care of our girls! It'll be hard not bringing the girls to you every week but unfortunately we had to find a place closer to our home. We wish you all the best and will miss you! Thank You!"

Fair Lakes Children's Center February 2005

"We want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the care that you've given our son this past year and a half. Because of you, his academic and social skills have been greatly enhanced. He has learned to express himself better through verbal communication and he's learning the importance of sharing. Thank you for allowing him to openly express himself and to be creative. We've been so blessed to have such a wonderful staff take care of our son in our absence. "All that is worth cherishing begins in the heart." Thank you for loving, teaching, and caring about our son!"

Fair Lakes Children's Center August 2004

"We wanted to thank all of you-teachers, administrative staff, and of course-the chef, for the wonderful support and caring environment you have provided over these past years. Initially, it was a big step and adjustment for our daughter, moving from an in-home provider with only 3-4 children to a big center. You made this big step a great experience with lots of love and nurturing. Your programs are fun and educational and encourage the children to learn and explore. You care and it shows-you will be a tough act to follow!"

Olney Children's Center August 2004

"It has been a pleasure bringing our daughter to OCC for the last 3 ½ years! The staff and teachers of OCC have become a part of our family! We will miss seeing you every day…and we wish all happiness, health, and success in the coming year! We would love to be notified about summer camp for next year as soon as you know when the sign up will be next spring! Please add us to the list!"

Olney Children's Center October 2005

"My children loved OCC! It is by far the very best child care we've had!"

Olney Children's Center June 2005

"The teachers are wonderful and very caring people with the kids."

South Riding Children's Center September 2005

"Our son was in Private Kindergarten last year and is doing super in Kindergarten at the elementary school this year. Way to go Private Kindergarten team! I wanted to share with you that our son has been reading up a storm and we feel we owe you a thank you for getting him to this level! Thanks for all you do! Watch out for our daughter in a couple years. She turns three this Saturday! We'll be sure to send her your way!"

Reston Day School August 2005

"Our daughter enjoyed her summer at Reston Day School and plans to return next summer!"

Reston Day School August 2005

"Our son had a wonderful two years at Reston Day School and we cannot thank you enough for making it such a great experience for him! Your staff has always been courteous and professional, and everyone here truly enjoys the children and the job they do. He has really matured under your watchful eyes and I am confident that he is ready to take this next step. Thank you for everything you do! Keep up the great work!"

Reston Day School July 2004
