I cant say enough great things about Christies Carousel of Learning. We have been part of the Christie’s family since 2011. Our son was two when he started in the Little Ducklings room. He attended full time until he was ready for kindergarten. He loved every minute he spent with the friends he made, the amazing teachers he had and the overwhelming love he received from the wonderful Christie family. We are thrilled that our daughter is also able to experience the same nurturing environment that makes Christies second to none. She looks forward to and loves going to school, and is sad to leave at the end of each day. She is truly happy – which makes my heart happy. In addition to early educational learning, we believe the environment that Christie’s offers has helped our children develop confidence, understand the importance of being kind to others, explores creative thinking and expression and encourages them to be their unique and wonderful self. The team at Christie’s is committed to making sure our children know that they are safe and loved, even when they are away from home. We truly enjoy the performances throughout the year and summer camp themes are always so much fun! We have so many wonderful memories throughout our years at Christie’s and we are looking forward to making many more. We wholeheartedly recommend Christie’s Carousel of Learning. We know you will love it as much as we have!

We have enjoyed our first year with Christies Carousel. Our son is in a 2 year old class and the staff have been great helping him make a smooth transition into a new environment. He enjoys going to preschool and really loves his teacher. As parents, that is all we can ask for. The staff at Christies have been accommodating with our schedules and provide great monthly updates to keep us informed. Christies is a great place for young kids.

Truly a wonderful place for our kids to learn, play and grow. Warm, friendly atmosphere starts with the greeting and often hugs from Miss Nancy - our kids look forward to them. Miss Judy, Miss Jan and the teachers really get to know each child and make them feel special. The sing/dance programs are a highlight and it is amazing to see all the kids grow and mature over the years. It is a wonderful place in our community and we are so grateful to have a safe and fun place that our kids enjoy.

Great school! Our daughter has been at Christie’s since she was 2 and she is almost 5 now. She loves going there and looks forward to going in the morning.. the staff is great and cares about every student there. She has excelled in all of her studies and will be ready for kindergarten when the time comes thanks to the loving staff at Christie’s ❤️

My son has been going to Christies for nearly a year and I cant explain how much he enjoys it! He has made friendships that Im sure will last a lifetime! Previously, he had been in a private daycare (which was great at the time) but he was ready to socialize more and meet new kids. While the first few weeks were a little tough, all of his teachers did a great job and he is confident now. The space is everything you would expect a daycare/pre-k space to be and so much more. He has such a fun day everyday and we look forward to the seasonal performances the kids put on! Thank you so much to everyone at Christies for making this experience one to remember!

From the moment I drop my son off to when I pick him up I know he is in good hands with all of the staff and teachers at Christies. He is learning an abundance of new things, growing socially and emotionally, and having fun! I love that he is learning a lot through play within his classroom. The shows the staff put on are simply amazing! You can tell they love what they do and truly care about the children!

Both my girls attend Christie’s and they love it. The feeling from when you first walk in is a sense of family. I truly believe that the staff love and care for my girls. The teachings in the classroom have helped my children grow not only academically but also socially and emotionally. We couldn’t be happier with the time our girls spend at Christie’s.

Christies is a safe, nurturing family owned preschool that I would highly recommend. All of the staff are professional, approachable and enthusiastic about learning! The building is safe and the appropriate procedures are in place when entering and leaving each day. My son really loved the daily lunches, which were both healthy and delicious. Finally, the shows that the kids put throughout the year are amazing and always a hit for the family and kids involved.

Christies Carousel is a wonderful place. I placed my daughter in their care when she was 2.5 years old. She was with them till she started her kindergarten last year. She still cherishes the love, care and attention that she got from the teachers there. I am so happy that I had the opportunity to send my daughter here.

Christie’s Carousel is the best thing to happen to our family.My son Chris started attending the summer program when he was two and I saw vast improvements in his behavior, socialization and communication skills. He’s excited to go to school and enjoys learning and playing with the other children.The school provides a safe and structured yet fun learning experience. I trust the owners and teachers; not only because of their experience but also because of the obvious passion they have for what they do.

From day one everyone at Christies has been very welcoming. Since starting, we have seen our child get excited about school. There isnt a day in which he does not bring home at least one drawing or craft which he shows us with pride. I have recommended Christies to many friends - its a great environment for kids.

Everyone at Christies really cares for the kids. The teachers go out of their way to make the kids feel at home (away from home). The crafts and learning activities are amazing. They are doing something different everyday. They are learning but having a lot of fun at the same time.

Christies Carousel is a warm and inviting place for kids and families. The kids truly come first and get to participate in wonderful holiday programs, attend music class regularly and are always bringing home creative art projects. The kids are well prepared for Kindergarten both academically and socially. We really loved our time at Christies.

It is a very loving and caring environment for your child to learn and grow. I have been to other facilities that dont even compare to Christies. They have your childs best interest at heart at all times. My three children all went to Christies and they really thrived there because of their nurturing environment.
