This place is wonderful as long as the parents keep their mouth's shut and don't challenge Christian or Jessica. Us as parents aren't perfect and our children aren't perfect either so if you don't fit Christian's and Jessica's "perfect" mold find somewhere else. Jessica is not qualified to diagnose children but she does. Christian has the communication skills of a rock. If you dare to challenge their decisions you will be bullied, threatened, and black balled.

Please reconsider your options. Christian and Jessica and nothing but bullies and frauds. If you as a parent dare to challenge them they will bully and black ball you. Christian couldn't be further from being professional and Jessica pretends like she has qualifications to diagnose children. They are rude and completely unprofessional. Christian would rather belittle you through emails than address any issues or take ownership of any wrong doing. If you don't do exactly what Christian and Jessica say you will be fighting a uphill battle in regards to your children there.

We've had two children be a part of Red Barn and they've left the school with confidence, independence, curiosity to learn, a love for the outdoors, and friendships they've continued well beyond preschool. When we moved to the area 7 years ago, we toured many of the programs in the area, and I left each one feeling pretty defeated that we wouldn't find the right place for our two children. Until I gave Red Barn a call and the owner said she would be available and to swing by for a quick tour. Well that tour turned into an hour! The care and dedication I experienced during that tour carried over into their educational programs and I knew we had found the right place. If you're looking for an amazing campus with open green space, adorable classrooms, and caring staff - make sure and consider Red Barn!

Caring, nurturing staff for children of all ages. Engaging learning activities and plenty of outside time. Three of my children attend or have attended Red Barn with positive experiences and wonderful memories.

Our family has had a wonderful experience at Red Barn, and we'd recommend them to anyone. The teachers are loving, nurturing, and always seem to have interesting art and activities planned. A big bonus is that the kids get a lot of outside time - which is something that was important to us and we didn't see offered when we toured other local facilities. So glad we found red barn!

Red Barn has a special place in my heart considering I am a graduate, but my nieces and son have attended more recently. I feel lucky that there is an opportunity to be in such a magical place. My son thrived in the outdoor environment and benefited from the emphasis on being safe and being kind. He loved his teachers and loved the community feel that the Red Barn has. He loved knowing the kids and teachers in the different "barns and houses". As a teacher myself I honestly felt he was kindergarten ready. He was ready to further his learning of letters, sounds, counting, rhyming, writing, patterns because of the strong base that was created. I also felt he was prepared for the social and individual demands of kindergarten due to the centers, routines, partnerships, free play and investigative opportunities that the Gray Barn teachers provide. Tte directors, Jess and Chris, are dedicated, loving, supportive and fantastic at their jobs. Thank you Red Barn for being you! We are sad it's over but so grateful for the summer camp!!!

The new owners are so unprofessional and have really poor communication/customer service as a business. They kicked our family out with no notice because they felt "unsafe" (like are you kidding me?) after I asked the management if they could kindly feed him more. Seriously, I am a working professional with a college degree and was kind and respectful dealing with them. He'd literally come home with more than half his food we sent him with. It was crazy. They literally looked for any "excuse" to kick us out because they have other "easier" kids and parents looking to get a spot. The new reviews from 2020 on Care.com share our experiences dealing with the management. Half the things they said in the email they sent us kicking us out were lies, it was so unethical. My wife and I have full time careers, what they did was so rude and inconsiderate. We got lucky because we found a new daycare a week later. But literally, everybody is full and they new that. They wanted to make us feel small and humiliated. Not to mention constant billing problems and attitudes/passive aggressive behavior by management who then spread gossip to staff. Only send your kids/children here if it is your last hope. Unfortunately it may be the only place left because of the current climate of things. Keep in mind it's also cheap which is why a lot of people want to go there.
