  • Absolutely love this daycare. The staff love all of the children so much and take fantastic care of them. I feel so comfortable leaving my child in their care each day.

  • I've reviewed The Vine before, but it's worthy of a second note. Our three older kids all attended The Vine at Wesley location and had wonderful experiences, to include getting back to learning during Covid with the most careful protocols in place. Our youngest attends The Vine at St. James. It's our first time having a child in daycare (we always had a nanny, followed by preschool). The care team made the transition from baby at home to baby in daycare seamless. They calmed our fears as well as our daughter's. Daily dropoff became a happy experience for our little one, jumping from my arms to her care team (especially Ms. Celia). Now she's nearly two in one of the older classes - growing, learning, making friends, singing songs, counting to 10 (yes, 10 - on her own), reciting Brown Bear and knowing the animals and colors. It's amazing how our daughter watches, interacts, and learns with her care team. We are regularly surprised at her pace of learning and grateful for such a wonderful and loving team. We also receive daily pictures, videos, and updates so we know what's going on and can enjoy a smile during the day. Cost of daycare can break the bank - The Vine has always been fair and reasonable - more affordable than a lot of preschools in our area. Our daughter also takes part in the meal plan where she receives healthy breakfast, lunch, and snacks daily - she's always well fed and content. She gets plenty of sleep, free play, structured learning and play, and time outdoors. There really isn't more we could ask for. The Vine has been in our lives for over eight years. We recommend them without reservation (and refer them regularly) to anyone in need of childcare.

  • The Vine Preschool at St. James is a wonderful, nurturing environment for young children. The owner/director is very knowledgeable and caring - a helpful combination for parents putting their baby or toddler in daycare. She hires caring, encouraging individuals. Both of our children attended The Vine Preschool at St. James. We knew our kids were in caring, protective, and nurturing hands. They were happy to go every day. We would not have sent them anywhere else.

  • My wife and I cannot say enough positive things about the Vine Preschool. The administrators and teachers poured so much positive and nurturing energy into our children. Our children were so happy to go there every day and gained many wonderful academic, social and interpersonal skills. We recently moved out of state and saying goodbye to the Vine was one of the harder parts of the move. We highly recommend both locations of the Vine for future families!

  • We couldn’t be happier with our experience at The Vine Preschool at Saint James. From the very first day, the teachers and staff have been welcoming, caring, and attentive to our child’s needs. The teachers provided personalized attention, and the curriculum is both engaging and enriching. Our child has shown so much growth socially and academically, thanks to the thoughtful and structured activities planned each day. We especially appreciate the school’s emphasis on kindness, creativity, and learning through play. The facilities are clean, safe, and well-equipped, making it a fantastic environment for young children. We highly recommend The Vine Preschool to any parent looking for a nurturing and positive early education experience!

  • The Vine Preschool has been my daughter’s safe haven and has eased my mama heart in our transition to daycare. Knowing that she is safe, loved, and nurtured by the teachers and director has given me peace of mind. We are so incredibly lucky to have found them. As a professional who works with kids in childcare settings the Vine Preschool has exceeded my expectations with love, kindness, and professionalism.
