Great School

My son started at Mrs Catherine's as a 6 week old infant. We loved the infant center and the care and love our son received there. At the infant center, he played outside, went for walks in a stroller and even did artwork, songs and puppetry with the teachers. As he grew up he moved to the Learning center, he was in the toddler classes and then moved through to preschool and pre-kindergarten. He was potty trained in the 2 1/2 year old room and had great experiences. He loved the teachers and they loved him. He learned his colors, and shapes and how to do puzzles and had a great time as a toddler and preschooler. He was able to go to swimming lessons in the summer for 2 years and on fieldtrips to the county fair. He looked forward to all the class parties and school wide events like the popcicle party, Easter egg hunt, splash days, christmas programs, and visits from santa. He made many friendships starting as a young toddler and he still has many of these friendships today as he is now 5 1/2 years old. Miss Catherine really has a great sense of community in her school and you can see it when families come together for events at the school. The teachers really exhibit a great deal of longevity and almost all of the teachers my son had are still at the school.He now is a Kindergartener and still talks about his time at Miss Catherine's. He had a wonderful experience there and enjoyed 5 great years growing up at this school. He occasionally still comes for visits when he is off of school and looks forward to coming to visit.

Great School

It has been a wonderful experience to have my two boys attend Miss Catherine's. I really can't say enough good things about it. I appreciate the leadership Miss Catherine provides and the excellent teachers and staff that make the school such a great learning environment for the children. We are sad to leave after 5 years, but our youngest is off to kindergarten. We must say that both of our boys were well prepared for the next step in their educaton.

Miss Catherine's

We have had a wonderful experience at Miss Catherine's Infant Center and Creative Learning Center. Our daughter started going to the Infant Center three days a week when she was a year old and has moved up to the Guppy Room in the Creative Learning Center. I have been impressed with the teachers that have cared for our daughter--they have been loving, kind, and encouraging to all of us. Miss Catherine does a great job hiring motivated teachers, communicating with our family and making the transitions for our child as smooth as possible. An appreciative Parent

Great school Overall

This is a great school I have had my children there for a along time,and my two children have been through almost all the rooms, the teachers are what make that school wonderful the only downfall is that the directors don't seem to notice some things that go on like in the 2 1/2 year old room the lights are always off at the end of the day and it' so dark that room is so dirty and the lesson plans on the wall are posted from the fall, there seems to be barely any art work done or sent home. I also notice that the teachers are expected to answer the phone which seems nuts when they are busy with kids. Lastly in the pre k room it seems like the younger teacher is always with the kids, busy non stop and , lessons and working on the classroom and the older teacher is always talking to parents about her own personal life for long periods of time while the younger teacher is running the room alone , shouldn't these things be noticed.? I do love the school but think mgrs need to open eyes.

Mother

My son started attending Miss Catherine's Infant Ctr at 7 weeks of age. I was very nervous about leaving my son and going to work initially but the teachers there eased my mind quickly and I felt very comfortable leaving him. I was also able to visit him daily on my lunch break from work and spend time with him and I was always welcome to do so with their open door policy. He went through the entire program at the infant center and my husband and I were very happy with the care and love he received there for the last 17 months. The teachers are very professional and sweet and kindhearted they truly love the children in their care, and I could not have asked for a better experience and piece of mind for my son while I work. He loved it so much he rarely wanted to go home when I went to pick him up. He is now moving to the Learning center and we look forward to his experiences there. If you are looking for quality infant care look no further then Miss Catherine's Infant Center

Wonderful daycare

Our sweet foster daughter went to Catherine's for two years. It was a wonderful and secure place for this little girl. I recommend Catherine's to everyone.
