My children have LOVED the JCC. Shabbat is amazing, all the teachers have been wonderful and Pam is always so accommodating. We are very grateful to have our children in this safe and supportive facility.

Our 2 year old has loved the JCC! From her toddler class, Ms. Lisa to her 2's class Ms. Yamille, she has loved them all. All the little ones seem to get along well and I've never walked in on them crying or yelling. There's a community feel, which is nice too. The front desk staff Vanessa and Stephanie are also super helpful and so sweet, plus the baked goods are amazing. Pam, the director, is very helpful, reasonable, and always gets back to you if you have any questions. Can't say enough good things!

Our 3 year old daughter (and other kids) were being hit by another student on multiple occasions and after multiple calls with the school. We just decided it would be best to take her out, she has improved so much since then.It crushed my heart to hear my three year old crying "I don't want to be hit anymore".

WOW is all I can say about the JCC in Chandler! By far, it has exceeded our expectations and the proof is in the progress our daughter has made this year. If you are considering this school (its an education center, not just a day care) I would recommend it 1000%. The teachers, the staff, every single person we've come in contact with has been superb.

Our family cannot say enough about how wonderful the JCC is! From the fantastic administration and leadership, to the dedicated teachers, and the amazing desk staff, the EVJCC felt like a home from the moment our daughter started attending at around 11 months of age. We stayed with the J from that time, all the way through Pre-K. We went from another daycare, where she was sick daily, to an environment where her health not only improved but became strong and her education thrived. The J has curriculums and our daughter learned to love music, science, books, and more. She developed, not only an appreciation for her education, but a yearning for it! When COVID hit, the J was a safe haven, a place where we did not have to worry about leaving our daughter. She was safe, happy, and always learning. I will never run out of good things to say about this organization! We will be sending out daughter back for fall, winter, spring, and summer camps - not only because it’s like returning home, but because our 5 year old ASKS us when she can go back to the J! If that’s not a glowing recommendation, I don’t know what is!

Mariah, seems like a very bad employee, not helpful, and doesn't communicate to a normal standard.

We started going to the J about 4.5 years ago right after my son was born. My 2 year old daughter attends now as well. The staff is excellent, they have some of the best student/teacher ratios, and I love their strong education focus. It's obvious they really care about the kids. Everyone on staff is great with communication. I'm never worried that I won't know what's going on with my kids. I've been really pleased with the COVID response that EVJCC has been doing as well. Not just the communication but also all the different steps being taken on a day to day basis. It can't be easy doing it with kids who don't always get why things have to be different. I know they probably get grief from some families on the (extremely few) times they've had to close a classroom due to a positive case. However, I work in Healthcare and I'm seeing on a daily basis how bad things are with this pandemic. I have to say thank you to their team for working so hard to keep everyone safe (even if it means quarantining kids). They're already the best people I could have caring for my kids during normal times. Shout out to them for being the best we could have during the pandemic as well.

We’ve had our son at the EVJCC since he was four months old! The teachers and staff are kind, considerate, and organized. They all seem to love what they do. Even this morning, my son ran to the door to go inside. He looks forward to seeing his friends and teachers. I’ve also been really impressed how they’ve handled the extra burden of keeping us all safe during this COVID pandemic. They were already so diligent with the best cleaning practices and health regulations, and it has continued. Thank you for caring for our son so well! ❤️❤️❤️

We cannot say enough great things about the J! When we were expecting our son, five years ago, I was overwhelmed with day care/preschool options for when I would need to return to work. Thankfully my sister in law and cousin were already sending their kids to the J and only had positive things to say. It was one of the easiest decisions to make. The staff is welcoming, knowledgeable, and understanding of the emotions (mostly from me!) of having to drop your kids off in the care of someone else. Jack started when he was 4 months old. He absolutely loves going to school to see his teachers and friends. Their approach to everything, especially process over product, has given him skills of confidence, resilience, and willingness to try new things. I never worry about him being at school. Their safety procedures have always been top notch, and with Covid they have added additional measures to keep both their staff and the kiddos safe and healthy. Our daughter will soon be attending the J as well. This is not just a day care center. This is an educational center that focuses on the needs, skills, and contributions of EVERY child. This is a place where EVERYONE is welcomed, differences are celebrated and community is valued.

We love the JCC preschool. Our daughter is well taken care of by a compassionate, caring and educated staff. My daughter started at the JCC almost 3 years ago. Since attending the JCC her social development has been exceptional and we couldn't be happier.

Our experience at the J for 4 years has been amazing. This is professional childcare facility with experienced staff and leadership. Due to moving we won't be able to attend any more and my first visit to check out a highly recommended preschool was so disappointing. At the J the large classrooms are always clean and organized with a great environment to learn in. There is ample indoor space for when the summer hits vs an extra classroom that is re-purposed at other preschools. We will definitely miss having such a great spot for our child.

Our daughter has been going here since she was 3 months old. Everyone knows her name and always say hi when they see her. The facility is huge, there's so much for the kids to do throughout the day, the teachers are wonderful, and my daughter has learned so much in the year she's been going there. And, you schedule your time there, so you only pay for the hours you use, which is so great. I definitely recommend JCC for daycare.
