My daughter attends Real Life Nursery. She loves her teacher, however I was taken aback by the directors (especially Assistant Director). Per usual, they are sugar sweet when showing me the school before I decided whether we?d enroll. I say "per usual" because I've seen this with the other preschool my daughter attended. Once enrolled and paying, they barely make eye contact with you and today I was approached by Mary Beth (assistant director) with "Hey, do you know you are a week late with tuition?" No first name, and rudely addressed in front of other people. Apparently my check I payed two weeks earlier (my daughter attends two day/week) was mostly just a deposit, which was also not explained to me. I apologized and said I'd bring in check when I came to pick up my daughter. Meanwhile, I had promised my daughter (as I always do now) to go to her window and throw her a kiss goodbye...this in exchange for her to be a "big girl" and not cry when I leave, which she often does. I was so embarrassed/offended on my way out that I forgot to go to her window. Talk about breaking my heart (and my daughter's) as I drove home remembering I'd forgotten the thrown kiss!
Pros: Nice facility. Caring teachers.
Cons: Rude management/directors. Not a lot of student feedback.
