We have been sending our son to Kensington for over a year now and it is one of the best decisions we've made. Our son just moved to a new classroom in the school and we cannot say enough nice things about his current and former teachers, including Ms. M. and Mr. F. Among her many talents, Ms. M. always has such a warm welcome every time any of the kids enters the classroom, no matter the time of day or the situation. It does not go unnoticed! I know it is probably not an easy thing to do some days either because we all have our harder days, but nonetheless Ms. M. always brings her wonderful warm energy consistently every single time at drop-off, and I think it really means a lot to everyone (I know it did to me as a parent!). It's the little things, and that's one of her unique superpowers. As for Mr. F., he too is always so warm, welcoming and kind. He did such a great job of describing our son's days at pick-up and keeping us up-to-date on the little details every day. He is very approachable and always went the extra mile to help us whenever we needed it. Mr. F. is another gem of a human. We are going to miss him very much as well! The entire team at Kensington continues to demonstrate on a daily basis why they are the very best. We are thankful to be a part of the Kensington family!
Mike RoselliApr 20, 2026I couldn't be happier with the experience my three kids have had at Kensington over the past few years. The amenities are unlike any other school in the area, and we've been so pleased with the caliber of the teachers and staff. It's clear that the teachers at Kensington truly love what they do, which then reflects in the attitudes, growth, confidence of the kiddos in their care.
Lauren BradyApr 17, 2026To anyone looking for a school for their little one, Kensington is wonderful! The teachers and staff are warm, kind and attentive. The facility itself is beautiful and welcoming. But most importantly, my child looks forward to attending school here everyday!
D ZApr 16, 2026We absolutely love Kensington!! The teachers and staff are exceptional, the curriculum is engaging and thoughtfully designed, and the facility is consistently beautiful and well maintained. The healthy food options are another great bonus. Most importantly, my children are genuinely excited to go to school each day; they feel happy, supported, and safe. I really appreciate the daily photos and updates that give a window into their classroom experiences and all the fun they’re having. I recommend Kensington wholeheartedly to anyone looking for a nurturing, high-quality school community.
Christine SlavenApr 15, 2026We’ve had nothing but a great experience at Kennsington. The teachers and administration are so lovely. We’ve loved the infant room all the way to the toddler room. Not to mention, the building is beautiful. They put so much love and care into the kids.
Allison RoseApr 14, 2026Our experience at Kensington has been nothing short of wonderful! Everyone from Ms. Diana (Head of School), down to our teachers is so kind, helpful, and communicative. We have had the opportunity to experience multiple classrooms and the attention to the children has been consistently great. We feel confident dropping our baby off every day, knowing that we are getting the best care. I am so glad we had the opportunity to enroll here.
