Cora's Mother

Infant Classroom

Very caring and entertaining, I am glad how adjusted my child for a short time to school and even takes naps with everyone at a certain time what I thought would be impossible for a long time.

London 's Mother

Toddler Classroom

It has been a terrific experience from top to bottom. We love your teachers and our son has an amazing time at school

Nolan's Father

Toddler Classroom

All of our son’s teachers (South Ferry) provide excellent care every single day. They keep a consistent daily schedule, which helps us at home. They make sure our son is hitting all of his milestones and prepare us as parents for his next ones. He loves coming to school every day and we know well he’s cared for and loved. Even his teachers in his previous classroom check in with him almost every day!
