Our daughter loves helping in the kitchen now, stirring bowls and saying, “I’m like my teachers.” We never expected cooking to be part of what she picked up, but Cresthill’s focus on independence and hands-on learning has given her so much confidence.
Our toddler is just 20 months old and already recognizes animals and colors during our evening walks. We know this came from Cresthill because he points and says “I learned that in school.” It’s such a comfort knowing he’s learning while having fun.
Watching our son graduate from Cresthill was one of the most emotional moments we’ve had as parents. This place has been his second home, filled with patient teachers and safe routines. It’s hard to say goodbye, but we are so grateful for the confidence and friendships he’s taking with him.
Our little girl is now moving on to kindergarten, and we feel both proud and sentimental. Cresthill gave her stability, a love for learning, and a safe, joyful space to grow. As parents with busy schedules, knowing she had such a strong foundation gave us comfort we can never put into words.
Our daughter now brings her books to bed and “reads” to her stuffed animals before falling asleep. We know that love for books started at Cresthill, where her teachers made storytime magical. For us, it’s not just about academics but about nurturing a love of learning that will last.
We were nervous about leaving our 2-year-old in daycare for the first time, but Cresthill erased those worries quickly. He runs to the classroom every morning, excited to see his teachers. The safe, cheerful environment they’ve built makes it clear how much they care for every child.
Every evening, our toddler insists on singing the same “goodbye song” they sing at school before bed. It’s become a sweet routine for us as a family. That sense of consistency and care that Cresthill provides has made such a difference in our daughter’s confidence and comfort.
Our son has grown so much since starting at Cresthill. He now asks to help in the kitchen, tells us stories about circle time, and even uses sign language when words don’t come fast enough. These are skills he wouldn’t have learned without such thoughtful teachers guiding him every day.
Our little one surprises us daily with her curiosity. She’ll point to the moon and talk about its shape or ask questions about colors she sees outside. We know these conversations come from her teache
