★★★★★Kayla WestThe best pre-school ever! My daughter went here for 3 years and I just loved everyone there! She (my daughter) has grown so much attending this school. Could not have asked for better people/teachers. They are very quick to respond to anything you ask or need! Definitely recommend!
★★★★★Megan DanielsWe are so very grateful for the wonderful team and family that VCA has become. They care so much about the children and it is apparent. It is a great peace of mind knowing that my child is being loved and cared for deeply while I’m away. They also provide a wonderful curriculum of activities and learning objectives to allow them to grow and develop optimally as well as events for the whole family. It is a true community there. Miss Nicole and Miss Alyssa have been such a blessing to our family and have become a big part of our village. Thank you so much VCA!
★★★★★PyshOur kids love going there! The teachers are so sweet. My big kids like the summer camp. So happy we found it!
★Sinead AherneThey are really really fake nice in the beginning but then they turn into snobby ,defensive and HOSTILE people that just want your money in the end, your just a business transaction to them and that's it , forget them having any morals or emphatic traits . They continue to charge your card even after THEY kick your child out too , its really sad , especially cuz they knew somewhat about things we were going through financially... and they keep robbing us anyway...this concludes week 2 of my son not attending and not only did they charge my card again without him attending, but they charged an extra $25 on top of it ..I'll be reporting it to my bank , but that's besides the point . ...ultimately before the sudden drop, I really liked my son going here and i thought I liked the teachers etc , like i truly did . but apparently, they didn't like me . My son was only there a whole 15 days . After the first week , he , like any child was crying and " didn't want to go to school " one of the mornings I was getting him ready . Me ,being a loving mom asked him why ?etc , ultimately he said his teacher (Mrs Stacey) kicked him in the leg , in the bathroom ... I brought him to school that morning like normal and brought it to his teacher/s attention what my son told me and seeked reassuranc.the teacher was nice( in hindsight -now know it was fake nice ) and she gave me normal reassurance, I went and continued my day like normal after that and I thought everyone was fine and on the same page ....but then Angie( director)called me a few hours later to reassure me herself, although, she sounded pretty defensive and mad ...almost like I did something wrong seeking reassurance once and once only . She called my son a liar and manipulater . my son is only 3 years old , maybe he didn't want to go to school and or have separation aniexty , but did Angie have to talk In such a defensive and rash tone of voice About us ? nah . but I let her speak her mind and with her defensive tone of voice and was waiting for the phone call to end already . I was confused on why she talked so defensively over something i thought was already resolved earlier on that day , anyway the phone call finally ended and life moved on.... or so I thought ... a week or so later , I made a terrible mistake of venting to Angie about a person we knew having some struggles with mental health , who figures what I vented would get completely thrown out of proportion. ( I was dumb enough to believe I could trust her with my venting and for that I hold myself accountable for trusting her ) anyway Long story short ,she told me they would be discussing things in a meeting and let me know the following week if my son could still attend her school . She told me my son couldn't attend that following Monday ( it was Friday June 20th ) and That she would call me that Monday to discuss what the status would be moving forward. On that Tuesday, she messaged a lovely long message explaining to me her reasons why my son is getting kicked out , she wrote a really long paragraph about the one time I seeked reassurance, in the paragraph she makes false accusations about me , saying I made a bunch of false accusations about them ! I didn't, at all , make any accusations about them . I couldn't believe the lies I read in this paragraph from Angie , I read it a few times to make sure my eyes weren't seeing things...it all steamed from the one day and one day only I seeked reassurance . .so the 2 reasons she kicked my sweet son out was 1. Because I seeked reassurance one and one day only and 2. Because someone we know struggles with mental health( discrimination at its finest ) And like i said In the beginning of this , they keep charging me money ! Even though my son has been out of this school since June 20th 2025 ( its July 2cnd 2025 as I write this ) We have been charged twice so far ! Overall please don't send your child Here , unless your perfect.
★★★★★Emily Vinluan (Em)My daughter loves VCA; as do I! I’m in school currently and have flexibility in between my classes to stop by and eat lunch there with my daughter. It’s such a positive environment and it makes me so grateful to see the caring, loving staff that she’s surrounded by constantly. The teachers truly cater to each individual child’s own needs. Couldn’t ask for a better or more trustworthy place!
