Our family has been very happy with the care and love the wonderful teachers and staff have given to our children at First School. Our oldest child started at First School in the infant room in 2020 and we have been with First School ever since! Our oldest started Kindergarten and was very well prepared emotionally and academically. We cannot thank the team at First School enough. When it was time to choose childcare for our second baby, we didn't think twice about who to choose.

This is a very beautiful place. Great staff and teachers.Sarah really was open and honest and made my child feel welcomed there. They help so much to get the things my child needs for kindergarten. I recommend this place highly

The way we’ve been treated by Sarah is nothing short of discriminatory! Since they found out we were going to be using ccap for payment they have treated us weird. My daughter had a hard time adjusting and has had several meltdowns they don’t even want to give her a fair chance to adjust. Now I’m wondering what they might have done to trigger her since they clearly didn’t want us there from the beginning so I will be asking for footage of every incident (before during and after). We saw an occupational therapist who told them that our daughter had lots of great potential and just needed to be worked with more and Sarah told me to my face she didn’t see any potential in my child. They are kicking her out after just 3 days. I urge minority families to find a daycare that’s more diverse and inclusive, especially African American families. And if your child has any behavioral problems or disabilities seek care elsewhere. They only want the most perfect, well behaved children here and are neither qualified nor capable to deal with difficult behaviors.

First School has been great with Jason. He loves all his teachers, and has met many great friends there. I truly believe they have laid a great foundation for his future. I would highly recommend for anyone in the area.

I have had all 4 of my kids at First School and absolutely love it. The teachers always go above and beyond for the children, and I couldn't have picked a better place for my children to be when I'm at work. First School is always clean, very safe and secure and I am know when I leave them they will be taken great care of. If anyone is looking for a wonderful daycare this is the place to be.

I love first school I’m very over protective mom so when it came down to choosing a daycare I knew I made the right choice with first school the staff truly cares about the kids and pays very close attention the effort for the babies goes above and beyond I HIGHLY recommend them so happy to have found them

Both of my children went to First School for prek and before/after programs. We had such a wonderful experience with the staff and felt the warmth of them really taking care of my children! Not only did their excitement to go daily made my husband and I proud, but their education foundation with skills made them more than ready for kindergarten. We highly recommend First School from our family to yours!
