Our 4month son just started daycare here in the beginning of January and we are beyond impressed with the level of care he has received. They update their app the entire day so we are aware of all naps, diaper changes and feedings. They also send pictures during the day as well. They have maintained his individual routine to a T and he has adjusted seamlessly between daycare and being cared for at home. Edith is attentive, and holds her staff to a high standard of care. Thank you!
Kathryn SeniorJan 21, 2026I recently visited ABCD , Academy and I had some concerns about the environment and overall organization. Firstly, the colors on the walls were quite bright and felt outdated, which made me uneasy after just 15 minutes. I believe an inviting and calming environment is essential for young children. Additionally, the carpets seemed old and not suitable for a daycare setting. During my visit, I noticed a lack of structure in the classrooms. The children were running around with little supervision, which made me question the level of organization and safety. While I appreciate the effort of the staff, my overall impression was not favorable. I found a nearby daycare that had a more welcoming atmosphere and was less expensive!
M PTJan 20, 2026My 4yo daughter has been going to ABCD since she was 4 months old. She absolutely loves going to school and seems to have a blast everyday. She adores the teachers and became really good friends with the kids there, some of whom started at ABCD as infants, just as she did. She learned a lot at ABCD, and every few days she would come home and tell me a new word or new story she learned. She is able to write decently well for her age, and can recite books to me. I credit a lot of this to the teachers, since she spends most of her time there. We are moving so we have to switch daycare. But we are very appreciative of the work and love the teachers have given my child. Highly recommended.
Jackson DuJun 18, 2025They are the best! The teachers are so loving as well as the director. Our daughter started at 8 weeks and although it was nerve wracking, they made the transition for my daughter seamless. The teachers in the baby room are amazing people and they love my daughter just as much as we do! Highly recommend!
Roselyn TimmSep 12, 2023My little man has been attending ABCD Academy for over a year now. From day one, he has felt comfortable and a part of the ABCD Academy family. I feel like I have developed some beautiful friendships with the teachers and directors as well as other staff members. I cannot recommend ABCD Academy enough. If you decide to bring your child here, you will not be disappointed.If there is ever an issue, they tackle it head on. I wanted to share with others however how truly marvelous their academy is.
CLAUDIA DYBALAJan 24, 2020This is THE best preschool in the entire area! I searched for months for a place that wasn’t a corporate feel like most schools that are over-charging and make it feel like a business. NONE compared to the feeling of home like this school. Edith and her staff are nothing less than AMAZING, and love my child like their own, putting their emotional, physical, and scholastic needs as a priority. My kid has developed SO much since being here and he is growing more each day. I will never look for a better place because it simply does not exist. These people are so dedicated to their little angels and I have NO complaints! Try them. You won’t regret it!!
