“What is not fabulous about The Growing Years. We have been part of The Growing Years family for almost 8 years and could not be more pleased with the care of our children. We have an 8 year old son and 5 year old daughter that both had the pleasure of attending this daycare. The staff at this facility really care about the future of our kids and always went the extra mile to help them grow and prepare for school. They always have excellent and exciting events inside and outside the facility that really made our family feel part of the Growing Years family. I have and always will recommend this daycare as it has been the light our family needed. This will be our daughter’s last year and it’s going to be bitter sweet. I really wish they taught school all the way up to 12th grade to be honest.”

“My family has been very happy at chidlcare network on sellars mill! We've been a part of this center for 3 years now and our daughter is happy there and the staff treat her like their own. Yes - Like a previous review said - there was a few months of short staffing but they were very communicative about it and it seems to have been solved earlier this year. Highly recommend.”

“My son was in preschool at Children's House a few years ago - around the same time the child from the last post was a student. I felt like I needed to comment because my son also had a difficult time calming his body during rest time, and I'm so appreciative of the extra time and attention Miss. Virginia gave him as he worked to master this important skill.No child was required to sleep, only to calm their bodies and minds. Miss. Virginia would play soft music and sit at the teacher table where she would do quiet work during rest time. She would position my son next to where she sat and often rubbed his back while he rested and looked through books. He enjoyed snuggling against her legs and I appreciate that Miss. Virginia, like every other teacher at Children's House, addressed the individual needs of my child while using age-appropriated methods to transition him from napping to "rest time." She helped him learn to calm his body and mind, and also taught him to respect his classmates' needs for a calm, quiet and safe space to rest.Miss. Virginia established Children's House Montessori in 1993 and I am so grateful that her daughter Grace chose to take on the work of providing a warm and nurturing learning environment built on the principles of Maria Montessori. Children's House requires (and pays for) their staff to complete ongoing training and continuing education in Montessori methods and principles - it is one of the main reasons we chose the school for our kids.Online reviews are powerful, yet the only gatekeeper to publishing is the commenter's own moral compass. I strongly recommend the last commenter spend time learning about Montessori methods to avoid making untrue and unfounded accusations regarding the education Children's House provides. The website for the American Montessori Society is a good place to start.The early childhood education industry faced enormous challenges due to Covid and nearly 16,000 US childcare centers have closed in the last two years. The management and staff at Children's House worked tirelessly to stay open throughout the pandemic. They worked with families facing financial hardship to ensure continuation of care, even when it must have seemed impossible to stay viable themselves. The classroom teachers and staff put their own health and wellness at risk every single day so they could be there for the kids and families who needed them.Thank you Miss Virginia, Miss Grace and the entire Children's House community for showing up and being there for the kids in your care. Please do not let an individual commenter make you question the quality of care you provide or the good you are doing for this community. You are appreciated.”

“This is a small center, but it is very clean, the teachers treat the children as their own, and they are very parent oriented. They make sure parents know what is going on in the classsroom.

I like the fact they send activities to my. Email that will help my child’s education and heathy life.”
