I enrolled my son at Near The Pier exactly one year ago. The experience with Near The Pier staff is nothing short of amazing. I was one of those parents who were overall skeptical about day care. I visited 7 other day care facilities before Near The Pier. I knew this was the place for my child the moment i walked through the door. The staff is friendly and professional. The premises are always clean. The environment cultivates learning and loving care. My son is currently enrolled in the toddler class. Ms. Kennedy and Ms. Victoria are great teachers and care providers. They not only teach the children educational fundamentals, but also life courtesy. My son uses “please”, “thank you”, “bless you” and other good mannered phrases on a regular basis; all good manners consistently embedded by his teachers. The teachers and care providers at Near The Pier treat the children as if they were their own. The live video stream is another great perk; check in on your child while you are at school or work. I can go on and on… I give Near The Pier 5 stars!

My son attended Near the Pier and our experience was great. The staff is warm and caring and my son loved his "teachers." Their curriculum is as good, if not better, than other child-care centers (I compare notes with friends who have children at other centers), and cleanliness and sanitation were never an issue - I pay very close attention to those things as they concern my family. When we move back into the city next year, I will likely re-enroll him at Near the Pier.
