Provided by YP.comI'm giving them 3 stars because the other kids and parents seem happy, but I had a one star experience. I would not recommend this school to anyone that has a child who needs an adjustment period, or who is not perfectly behaved. Do not send them to this school if you have any doubt that your child is ready for it. I tried to pull my child out before school started bc I didn't think he was ready, but the director pushed very hard for me to send him anyway. They kicked him out after two hours, and basically told me that the other children were perfectly behaved, while mine was awful.
I take responsibility for my child not behaving perfectly, but I had seen the children pushing him around at open house, so I have trouble believing they were all well behaved. I saw how they were handling my son, and it was not good. i won't get into the specifics, but my kid was not the same for awhile after that.
I was later informed by other pre-schools and daycares that are familiar with Channing that they have little tolerance for children who need an adjustment period, but that their enrollment is low, so they'll take kids that clearly aren't ready. The fact that they kicked a child out after two hours was not shocking to any of these people.
My child is now at a pre-school where he was welcomed immediately, and where they seem very good at comforting children who are maybe a little scared to be in a new environment.

Provided by YP.comChanning is a great school! My son loves going there everyday. They really make learning fun for him. They have taught him so much in the past year. He loves all of the teachers too, Mrs. Skaistis, Mrs. Hazen, Mrs. Anderson, and Mrs. Kennedy. He talks about them all the time and misses them on the weekends. If you are looking for a preschool that doesn't brainwash your child with religious views at an early age this is a good one. They teach the kids to love everyone and to be yourself...every school should be like that! Also the owner/director is very involved in her school and she is very helpful. This is not a daycare but a true preschool...very happy with it for my son.
