We love the teachers and staff at Parker-Chase. They know everyone's name, even the kids that are not in their class. They are kind and caring, and most importantly, they are receptive to feedback. I had a really hard time when my daughter transitioned to her new classroom. She and I both cried every single day for a week. The administrative staff hugged me and talked me through, and her old teacher went in every morning to sit with her until she acclimated. Now Ms. Diamond is her best friend! They are extremely supportive inside and outside the classroom, and we are so incredibly grateful for the extra attention given to the people they hire.

It’s been a pleasure coming to drop off/pick up my kiddos. The staff has been professional and courteous and I enjoy interacting with them. The facility is super clean and is well organized. If I could change one thing it would be to eliminate the ultra processed food completely from the school and to eliminate any food that contains high fructose corn syrup, seed oils and/or dyes. I would be happy to talk more on the subject should you desire. Jeff

Everyone is always so welcoming and accommodating. It really makes it easy know your child is with people who truly care about his well being and education. We really appreciate that Kayla is always there for any questions we have, that Ms. Melissa always finds a vegan alternative, and that while all the teachers are phenomenal we appreciate Ms. Rayna and Ms. Chelsic for the attention and love they give our little guy.

My preschooler absolutely loves going to his new school. His first day, drop off was terrible due to his prior experiences of other centers. When I picked him up from daycare that first day, he told me how much fun he had and about his “nice teachers”. He says his teachers aren’t angry, and his room isn’t dirty like his old school. Every day since, he walks right into the center and his classroom without any issues. I’m never walking into chaos at drop off or pick up, it’s very nice seeing the teachers having calm control over their classrooms. Beyond thankful to have my kids in a place where I know they’re being loved and cared for!
