  • CPP has been such a warm and inviting place for my children. From the moment we walk in, it truly feels like a safe and nurturing environment where they can learn, grow, and thrive. I have seen so much growth in both of my children. Not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. They absolutely love being there and never want to leave at the end of the day, which says so much about the caring and dedicated teachers. The teachers goes above and beyond to make sure every child feels loved and supported. I am so grateful for everything CPP has provided for our family, and I can confidently say my children ready for kindergarten.

  • We’ve had such a wonderful experience with this preschool. Melissa, the owner, creates such a warm and welcoming environment and truly treats every child like her own. The space is always clean, engaging, and full of fun activities that keep the kids excited to learn. One thing that really stands out is how they motivate and reward reading at home—it’s made a huge difference for my son and has helped him build great habits early on. They also go above and beyond with fun local field trips and even host movie nights, which really sets them apart from other preschools. We feel so lucky to have found a place that is not only nurturing, but also encourages growth and a love of learning.

  • We’ve had a really great experience with this preschool. My child absolutely loves going every day, which says a lot as a parent. One of the best parts has been the after school music class. It’s something he genuinely looks forward to and always talks about when he gets home. Mrs. Gilland is a wonderful teacher. She’s very enthusiastic about what she does, and you can really see that in how she interacts with the kids. My son loves all of his teachers, and it’s clear they’ve created a warm, positive environment for the kids. We’re very happy with our experience here and would definitely recommend it to other families!

  • We’ve had such a great experience with this preschool! Melissa brings so much energy and heart into everything she does. She’s also genuinely kind, approachable, and always willing to work with us. What really stands out is the culture she’s created. The staff she hires are excellent—caring, creative, and engaged—and together they foster a warm, welcoming, and energetic environment where kids can truly thrive. Our 4-year-old loves going each day, and it’s clear he’s making friends, learning, growing, and being cared for in a very special place. We’re so grateful to be part of this community.

  • Melissa, the owner is truly such a blessing to have in our life! From the moment I talked to her on the initial phone call to insure I had nothing to worry about to present day! We are so grateful for the incredible experience our daughter has been having at this preschool. From the very first day, the teachers and staff have created such a warm, nurturing, and welcoming environment. It truly feels like a second home for her. The teachers are patient, attentive, and genuinely invested in each child’s growth. We’ve seen such a positive difference in our daughter’s confidence, communication skills, and love for learning. She comes home excited to share what she learned each day, whether it’s new letters, songs, or friendships she’s made. Or the presents from Mrs. G which they always love! What stands out most is how much care and intention goes into everything they do — from creative activities to social-emotional development. We always feel informed, supported, and reassured that she is in safe and loving hands. Choosing this preschool has been one of the best decisions for our family. We couldn’t recommend it more highly! Christine Franso

  • Christian Pre-K Prep has been a great learning experience for our daughter so far! Melissa was so helpful and supportive when I called her in the spring before school and I was panicking looking for a spot due to being waitlisted at another preschool. Turned out to be the best situation! They have before care and aftercare which was something I was worried about finding for a reasonable price. Along with Miss Jenny who has done a phenomenal job with the kiddos! Melissa is always looking out for the kids and really makes an effort to develop a relationship with each and every child.
