HEARTFELT TESTIMONIALS
I would give a special recommendation for their teacher Miss Aya. When my toddler started school, I was very apprehensive on whether she would be okay with a new face… but from day one, she fell in love with the teacher. Miss Aya is extremely giving, and nurturing…. Every time I go to her class, I see all the children are so peaceful, I have never heard any of the children cry… and they learnt so much. My daughter tells me that she misses her teacher over weekends, and that makes me feel so grateful. I have seen a big difference in her personality… She’s happier and more confident due to the 😍 teacher she has who focuses on overall growth of the personality for the children. Miss Laly and Miss Aya Make an excellent team, and have created a wonderful environment for the children, we are so so lucky to have them. Thanks!
