  • Couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Village ELC! My daughter has been enrolled since July and we have been blown away by how helpful the staff have been in our transition, as well as how much she has learned. As expected with this age group, a small outbreak of Hand Foot & Mouth occurred and the staff handled it so well. They were forthcoming about exposure, the measures they were taking to prevent the spread, and gave clear (and appropriate) guidelines to return to school. We also received messages from the director checking in on how our daughter was feeling and that she was missed at school. As someone who works in healthcare, I felt comforted by their efforts and transparency. The building is clean, the activities are so exciting and the staff are true angels. It will be a sad day when we leave their care for kindergarten. ❤️

  • We are so thankful to have found this village! The teachers are incredibly supportive, loving, and genuinely care for each child as if they were their own. It's such a comforting feeling to know my little ones are in a nurturing environment every day. The staff goes above and beyond to create a space where children feel safe, happy, and encouraged to grow. I’m so grateful for the amazing care and dedication they show — it truly makes all the difference. Thank you all, we love you!

  • We absolutely love this daycare! From day one, the staff has been incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive. Our child is not only safe and well-cared for but also thriving socially and emotionally. The teachers are genuinely invested in each child's development, and it shows in the way they communicate with families and create a nurturing environment. We especially appreciate the regular updates and photos—it’s so reassuring to see our child happy and involved during the day. It truly feels like a second home for her. Gabi, the director, has been incredibly kind, professional, and attentive. She creates such a warm, welcoming atmosphere and runs the center with so much care and intention. She and her staff are very ontop of cleanliness and letting families know what illness is going around.

  • We couldn’t be happier with this daycare! It’s such a relief knowing my daughter is in a place where she’s safe, happy, and learning so much. I love the close community feel of this daycare, the staff truly care for the kids like family. Highly recommend!

  • We have been sending our daughter to The Village ELC for almost a year. (We were previously enrolled in a corporate style daycare in Derry.) We couldn’t be happier since we made the switch!! Not only does our daughter absolutely love spending her days there, but we adore all the teachers! The director, Gabi, is hands down the most incredible human being! You can tell she loves her job, and truly cares about every single child in the facility. The entire team’s compassion and dedication to childcare is unmatched. We will continue to recommend them to anyone and everyone I know seeking childcare in the area!!

  • My son has been going there for almost half a year now and one of the best decisions I have made for him. Beginning was rough for sure for him (some crabby mornings still until this day) to get adjusted but the teachers are so welcoming and loving and did their best to settle him. I can’t say enough great things about their director, she is always so quick to respond and my son absolutely adores her- you can just tell how down to earth she is and how much she cares about the kids and the program. Can’t wait for my daughter to join once it’s her time - highly recommend to anyone in the area !!
