  We are so happy with Ballston Children’s Center! The key differentiators are that they have a HUGE, fenced in , shaded playground so the kids get a ton of outdoor time AND they do a ton of parent - kid events as well as performances and plays! The plays (like Alice in Wonderland) are so cute and bring so much confidence. My daughter doesn’t stop talking about it! They also do kid put on shows for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, holidays, etc. it’s great! Communication is also very good. I highly recommmed BCC

  BCC has been a wonderful experience for our son since he was 2 years old. They provide a consistent caring and motivating atmosphere. We feel so comfortable with them and dropping of our son which is a huge reassurance for a working parent :)

  We could not be happier with our decision to send our daughter to Ballston Children's Center. It has been incredible to watch her flourish in such a supportive and enriching environment. Since starting here, her growth has been remarkable. She has not only built wonderful friendships but has also made incredible strides in her language development, becoming confident in her English speaking skills. The play-based curriculum is clearly high-quality; she is constantly learning through engagement and exploration. One of the most delightful highlights has been watching her learn how to perform on a stage—a true testament to the confidence the teachers instill in the children. We are also consistently impressed by the incredible level of care the staff puts into making the school feel like a community. They do a fantastic job celebrating various holidays, seasons, and birthdays, making every milestone feel special for the kids. Additionally, the facility has a big playground where the children get to play twice a day, which is so important for their energy and development. What really sets this center apart is the staff. Every teacher and administrator is incredibly attentive. It feels like a true community; everyone knows my daughter by name and goes out of their way to make her feel welcome and seen every single day. If you are looking for a place where your child will receive a quality education while feeling safe, active, and loved, I highly recommend Ballston Children's Center!

  We have had such a wonderful experience at Ballston Children's Center. Our son started attending when he was two and a half and has thrived in his time at BCC. He absolutely loves the performances that his class does for parents - and it is so fun to watch him sing and dance! We love that BCC has a huge shaded playground and that they prioritize getting the kids outside as much as possible. They also participate in many other fun activities like yoga and have performers come in to do shows for the kids. We are so sad to leave, but are forever thankful for our time here and the wonderful care that our son received.

  Both my kiddos attended Ballston Children’s Center, and we had a wonderful experience. The teachers are caring and highly qualified, and both children were well-prepared for kindergarten. The school offers enriching activities like yoga and dance—my youngest especially loved the recitals. The front office is professional, responsive, and accommodating, making it easy for working parents to stay involved. It’s a warm, nurturing environment that’s both well-organized and well-rounded. My kiddos and I are sad to no longer be going there—we’ll truly miss it.

  Our family has had a wonderful experience at Ballston Children’s Center. From the beginning, we were impressed by the transition process and how the staff focuses on making both children and parents feel comfortable.Finding a place where you feel your child is truly safe and cared for is a top priority, and the staff here has consistently met those expectations. ​What stands out most is the balance between structured learning and creative play. Our daughter has grown so much in her social skills and curiosity since starting here. The teachers are communicative and clearly dedicated to early childhood development. It’s been a relief to drop her off knowing she was in a safe, nurturing, and high-quality educational setting right here in the neighborhood. The location is very convenient for those living or working in the Arlington area, and the facility is always clean and welcoming. Our time at Ballston Children’s Center is coming to an end now, and what a journey it has been! From the incredible stage performances that built my daughter's confidence to the nurturing teachers who have been there for years, BCC has been the perfect first chapter. From her very first day at Ballston Children’s Center, she was surrounded by teachers who felt like family. At BCC, she didn't just go to school; she explored. My daughter went from a shy observer to a star performer, learning that her voice matters. She made her first real friends, learning how to share, play, and care for others. We want to thank all the teachers at BCC for the incredible care and dedication they have shown every day. It meant the world to our family to know that our child was in such a safe, nurturing, and fun environment. We’ve seen so much growth over the past few years, and we know that is a direct result of your hard work and patience and she is ready now for the next chapter of kindergarten. ​We are so grateful to have had you as part of our daughter's journey! Best, Ana.
