The Children's Workshop - Rumford

I have been with TCW for over 6 months now and let me tell you ,this daycare is the absolute best! The teachers , the support staff and the director Jess and assistant director Sophie are 10 stars! I love the nurturing environment and the enthusiasm the teachers show everyday!

My separation anxiety preschooler just started here 2mths ago. He had just a few words and is already more vocal. The director Jessica is beyond awesome!!! The teachers are outstanding!!! There is family engagement, learning, field trips, everything you can want in preparing your child for kindergarten. I can't say one bad thing about this preschool. In just 2 months they have already proven to me that the right choice was made for my preschooler. The plus side...my preschooler loves his teachers, the director, and school! He looks forward to going everyday!

The reason for 5 stars is that I’ve seen teachers at Rumford work very hard to make sure each child’s needs are met, whether it’s social-emotional, academic, behavioral, special needs and, well, list goes on and on. Coming from public school teaching to TCW, I know for a fact that these teachers are professionals in their fields, as are doctors and lawyers, etc. Plus they are human just like the rest of us. They truly want what’s best for children!

Couldn’t have made a better decision when I was initially looking for childcare. Everything about this center exceeds my expectations - the cost, the quality, and most importantly, the teachers. My 2 and 3 year old are in the Toddler & Pre-K classes and they LOVE going to school everyday. My initial conversation with the Director, Jess, was great - she left no questions unanswered and was very responsive and informative. We were most worried about my 3 year old, who was shy, quiet and didn’t speak much - 6 months later we see a HUGE improvement in his development. When we were first searching for a daycare, we knew it had to check off a certain criteria: distance from work/home, diverse, affordable, and lastly, we just needed a good “feeling” about it. Well - we were right. Our kids love their teachers & friends, they play outside everyday, have water play in the summer, and get to do all sorts of fun things! Bonus - they even serve breakfast, lunch & snacks (from our research, a lot of centers don’t serve breakfast or lunch, and you’d have to bring your own.) The ONLY downside is that they close at 5:15pm, which is tricky for a 9-5 schedule, but that sounds like it’s due to Covid. Still - no points docked.

My daughter went there when she was 2 and now again at 4 she loves it and all the teachers are awesome especially Miss Ashley and Miss Meredith and can't forget Miss Sharon in the toddler room. They are whom I've dealt with so that's why i pointed them out but everyone there at the children's workshop are phenomenal. I definitely recommend sending your child here, if theres openings !
