Cedars Preschool at Locust Grove

Jo Jo, Mrs. Abbey, Mrs. Stephanie, and Ms. Mallory love their Cedars’ kids like their own! They all embody that nurturing love that brings peace to parents dropping them off everyday. Our year and a half year old knows some of his colors, sings songs, loves to read, and loves going to school everyday! We love our teachers! Ms. Morgan makes learning so fun for our oldest with Ms. Mariah. He is always so excited to go to school because she is his teacher. His smile talking about his class and teachers makes us so happy because he is so happy!

This is one of the best daycare’s in Locust Grove. The staff is exceptionally well trained, and respectful. I have to highlight one of the employees Mariah, she is so professional and always welcome us like we are family. Mariah’s attitude is always positive and her classroom is always immaculate and a welcoming environment.

Iyana is an absolutely amazing preschool teacher. She is patient, kind, and truly passionate about working with children. You can tell she genuinely cares about each child’s growth, both academically and emotionally. She creates a safe, positive, and fun learning environment where kids feel comfortable and excited to learn. Her communication with parents is also excellent. She keeps everyone informed and always goes the extra mile to make sure each child is supported. Iyana has a natural gift for teaching young children, and it clearly shows in the way they respond to her with respect, love, and enthusiasm. Any preschool would be lucky to have her.

I cannot say enough amazing things about Ms.Mariah! From the very first day, it was clear that she truly has a heart for children. She is patient, nurturing, attentive, and incredibly intentional with the care she provides. You can tell this isn’t just a job for her — it’s her passion. She creates such a warm, safe, and structured environment where children feel comfortable, supported, and excited to learn. Her communication with parents is consistent and reassuring, and she goes above and beyond to keep families informed and involved. What really stands out is her ability to balance fun and learning. She encourages creativity, independence, and kindness while also reinforcing positive behavior and important developmental milestones. Every child in her care is treated with love, respect, and individual attention. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely invested in your child’s growth and well-being, Ms.Mariah is the absolute best. We are so grateful for the impact she makes every single day! Highly, highly recommend! 💛
