TESTIMONIALS
My husband and I knew from the moment we visited Growing Minds Preschool that it was the place for our daughter. The environment they have created is structured for learning, but in a fun and creative way. This will be her third year at Growing Minds, and I can't picture her anywhere else. Each year she has continued to develop educationally, socially, and emotionally and we feel she will be more than ready to start kindergarten. We wish we would have known about this opportunity when our older child was in pre-school. The themes, projects, and lessons that have been taught here are more developed, more creative and more in depth than what we had previously been exposed to. We are so blessed to have found Judi Ratcliffe's program for Abbey. She can't wait to start another year there!

This will be my fifth year having a child at Growing Minds Preschool, and I am looking forward to sending my youngest daughter next year for the 2 ½ year program. Judi provides a wonderfully nurturing, educational and FUN environment for the children. Her individual attention to each child’s skill level and needs is second to none. And her facility for the children is clean, spacious, and absolutely adorable. I truly feel that Judi has provided my children with the perfect beginning to their education experience – both for them and my husband and I!

I just can’t say enough good things about this preschool! Growing Minds provided not only a nurturing environment, but also academically prepared my children for kindergarten. They work on letters, numbers, counting, social skills and really prepare the children for the routine of a kindergarten day. All of the teachers are friendly, loving and patient. My children – one boy and one girl – have very different personalities, yet Ms. Judi was able to reach out to each of them individually and teach them in the way that worked best for them. They both loved it there and in fact my son wanted Ms. Judi to follow him to kindergarten! I am so thankful that I was able to give my children such a great start to school. I highly recommend this program!

My son attended the 2 year and 3 year old programs. He and I were both extremely happy with Judi and the programs. I was pleased with the small class size and the curriculum. Judi has created a nurturing, fun learning environment in her school. In addition, Growing Minds has an academic focus that is delivered in a child-friendly manner. It was amazing to see the topics that my son learned and the growth in him. The programs at Growing Minds prepared him well for kindergarten. My son had a very positive, happy and enriching preschool experience at Growing Minds.

Our son has had a wonderful experience with Ms. Judi and the entire staff at Growing Minds Preschool. Ms. Judi provides a fun, encouraging, creative, and organized learning environment in which the children thrive socially, physically, and academically.
We were very impressed with how our son developed during his first school year at Growing Minds -- and how much fun he had along the way! We also really appreciate the communication and the relationships that the teachers have developed with the parents. Whether it is the weekly theme, special programs, parents-night-out, or the summer camps, the teachers truly engage the children throughout their whole learning experience. Our son cannot wait to begin his next year at Growing Minds, and we are looking forward to sending our daughter here as well!
