The Children's Center had a wonderful Pre-K program that has provided an amazing learning environment for my child. The teachers are nurturing, dedicated, and truly care about the well-being and development of each child. The curriculum is engaging and age-appropriate, allowing my child to learn and grow at their own pace. The facilities are safe, and filled with stimulating materials that encourage exploration and creativity. I am impressed with the variety of activities and experiences offered, including music, dance, yoga, art, walks to the VCA for pottery class, regular visits to the local library and lots of outdoor play on their numerous playgrounds. The school also has it own private chef who serves up delicious and nutritious meals.I am so grateful for the positive impact Miss Amy, Miss Pam, Miss Suzanne, Miss Kayla and Miss Luann have had on my child's early education. I highly recommend The Children's Center to any parent looking for a top-notch pre-k school in the area.

Our experience with The Children’s Center has been exceptional. Each teacher is not only incredibly nurturing and kind, but they are committed to the learning development of the children in their class. The amount of engagement and discovery that happens each day is so evident in the growth we’ve seen in our son since he started the center. Ms. Amy, Ms. Suzanne and Ms. Pam, who teaches our youngest and also taught his older brother are remarkable educators and wonderful human beings. They welcomed us as a family when we were new to the town and immediately became our “village.” We are also so excited for the center’s new principal, Ms. Andrea, whose warmth and experience has made an already great environment even better. We could not be more grateful for The Children’s Center and the impact it has had on our kids.

We love the Children’s Center. Both of our boys went there and had the best experience with the teachers. The staff and admin are easy to deal with and you can tell that they truly love being with the kids.

The Children’s Center has been an absolute blessing to our family and most especially to our son. The Center has helped him slowly overcome his picky eating habits, he has developed great new dinner table manners and overall independence and confidence. The teachers and staff are attentive to his needs and they practice positive reinforcement which has helped with his reactive outbursts. He comes home calm and happy instead of overtired and cranky. There is a reason why there is a waitlist to get in but in my opinion it is well worth the wait!

THIS IS THE BEST SCHOOL!I am fortunate to have a unique perspective of The Children’s Center as I am both, a parent of a one year old who attends the infant room, and the lead teacher of the toddler classroom.As a mother, I want my child to be given the best opportunities to learn and be nurtured day to day. The ache of dropping your precious baby off can be unbearable, but I have never had a day where I questioned his care. He is given so much enrichment through his teacher’s careful lesson planning to evolve his skills through meeting critters like a porcupine! The smile I see on my son’s face when I open the car door, revealing the school behind me- says it all. As a mother I am beyond blessed to know that my son’s teachers are as invested in his education and safety as I am.As a teacher who has worked in the early childhood education field for over 12 years, I can assure you that this school is by far the best place for your children. The teachers are educated, kind, and passionate. The administration is unbiased, hard working, and always go out of their way to support anyone who needs it. We are a nonprofit school, not a corporation who cuts corners to make an easy dollar like most other schools do. Early childhood educators come to work each day because we love children. We enjoy giving them the tools they need to emotionally, socially, and educationally become incredible humans. Our love pours out of our doors and into the community every day. We volunteer our time to the senior center, GOAT Days, art center, and much more. We think that giving your child the best chance to succeed early is very important and we would very much appreciate the opportunity to help your little ones thrive!

My daughter has been going to pre-k at the children's center for almost a year now. She enjoys going to school. The teachers here are caring and very well trained in early childhood education. Being the only child, she loved the interaction with kids younger than her and also kids her age. The different activities and field trips that the staff plan for the school year keep the children engaged and have new experiences that they will cherish. This is a gem of a school located in New Milford!

Since the prior director Susan left this school has taken a negative turn. The current director is passive aggressive, and the culture has become impersonal and all about the money. My son had his last day today after attending for two years and none of the teachers had any idea. I gave two stars because I don’t feel it is an unsafe environment. That being said my son didn’t look forward to going to school towards the end, which is unusual for him as he is an outgoing happy kid. The whole point of preschool is to have fun.

We have been sending our daughter o CCNM for almost 3 years, starting in the infant room and she is now in the toddler room and we couldn't ask for a better place for her to learn, grow and thrive. The teachers are so exceptionally kind, nurturing and informative. They provide a great balance of structure and fun new activities each day. The Center is a safe and caring space that I feel very comfortable sending my child to. I feel very informed on a daily basis and heard. I highly recommend CCNM.

My son has been attending The Children's Center for 3 years and I don't have enough words to say how grateful I am to have found this daycare! My son became more confident and was well prepared when it was time for him to start Kindergarten. Every single person working there genuinely cares about each child and goes above and beyond for the families. I appreciate the extendend hours and the sliding fee scale that makes daycare affordable and is such a huge help!

My child has been attending The Children's Center for the past 2 years. He has learned so much and really grown. My son has learned to write his name, share with his fiends, and remembers everyday to be helpful and kind. The teachers at the Center really care about your kids here, it's not just a job. They are all wonderful and go out of their way everyday to make each child feel welcome. We appreciate the extended hours and sliding scale that is offered, along with beautiful, organic, home cooked meals made in-house. That includes cupcakes for every birthday! I can't say enough about this school; we are so glad we found it!
