Being in the strange times we live in during Covid we have become quite flexible.. we had called early 2021 and the school didn't know if they were doing the becoming 2's program. Which ok fine but let us know if it just so happens in the fall. Much to our delight they decided to do the program again! We registered, paid tuition etc. Was extremely excited that we would be with our 13 month old from September to January then he would be solo January to the end of the school year. Loved the gradual approach. I called today to inquire about the actual start date because the various emails and schedules

There is no better place to send your child if you live in the area. ALL of the teachers and their assistants are top notch. The staff is just amazing -- happy, cheerful, understanding and tolerant. The facility is also HUGE, where children have the ability to exercise and learn coordination. My son is extremely active and World Cup meets all of his needs. He loves his teachers and the other students and doesn't even look back when I drop him off.
