“Our son was enrolled here for a year until we had to move for work. We enrolled our son here when he was 3 months old and he absolutely loved it. He was excited to see his teachers each day, he learned a bunch of stuff as well. The staff was always friendly and accommodating to his needs. They also took extra caution when it comes to the health and safety of our son. We would recommend this place in a heartbeat we were sad to move away.”
“I was referred to HUMC Preschool by a friend and I am so grateful. Both of my children loved going. It was their first experience away from home and such a blessing! We reminisce about their teachers and how much fun they had. I was also lucky enough to work at the school last year and got to see all of the care and attention that goes on behind the scenes... It’s amazing!”
“We are glad to be part of this community for about a year. During this time, our child has learned to be confident, to be kind to other children with different ages, to be independent, and most importantly, our child looks forward to going to school everyday. The staff and guides create a safe and welcoming environment for children to confidently be themselves, learn, grow, and create wonderful childhood memories. Our lead guides and all the wonderful staff have made parents experience enjoyable as well. We got valuable advice during parent teacher meetings that tailors to our child's unique style/personality. They know our child very well. You can feel the school's culture as soon as you walk in the campus. The classrooms are beautifully designed just for the children. This school truly embraced Montessori. We highly recommend Herndon Guidepost to families with young children. Hope you will enjoy the same experience we had here.”
“I love mama Shelem & her team! My daughter just turned 3 and has been attending almost a year. I love how much she has blossomed & I truly believe it’s because of all the learning & interaction she has been getting from this preschool! She knows her letters, numbers, even teaches me the sign languages that she has learned! They have worked with me through the potty training stage, stress-free! Now she is fully potty trained! Mama Shelem holds parent teacher conferences every 6 months (I believe) and is so so knowledgeable about early childhood education! They also let me do a quick piñata for my daughters birthday one morning and it’s so nice to witness all the kids interact well with each other; compassionate to one another. My daughter has become more confident playing with younger kids as well as older kids. They really do a great job and I can tell they do everything with the child’s best interest. We love them like family!”
“Our daughter's school was unexpectedly closed last summer, so we needed to find an alternative for a few months. MCC could not have been more accommodating. Their staff is friendly, helpful and welcoming. Our daughter was exposed to all sorts of fun activities. She thoroughly enjoyed her time there and was eager to return each day. We also felt like she was safe and well cared for (which is saying a lot because she has allergies and other health issues that need to be tended to). Plus we loved the app that they used to communicate, share pictures/videos and process payments. Overall we had a very positive experience and hated to say goodbye at the end of the summer!”
“We have been going to Chesterbrook in Herndon since they reopened post-COVID in July 2020. Both of our children, now 4 and 2, have gone there and we couldn’t be happier with quality of the teachers, the curriculum, and the leadership! Our two kiddos are thriving. Chesterbrook has been awesome, it’s so much more than a daycare. It’s truly a preschool. Our kids learn so much, have so much fun, and we always feel safe knowing our kids are in good hands.If you are in the Herndon/Reston area and are looking for a great preschool, you should checkout Chesterbrook!”
“I recently attended a Pre-School graduation here to support the daughter of my best friend. I wanted to know about this school because of how much my friend raved about the nurturing experience all of the children receive. When I walked in I Immediately noticed the welcoming vibe from not only the owners but from all of the teachers. The children had such a happy experience and spoke with such confidence. I can tell they felt empowered. I highly recommend visiting the Goddard School of Herndon if you would like a home away from home for your child.:)”
