OUR CURRENT OPPORTUNITIES

Hear From Our Parents

"The teachers are SO very knowledgeable. My children surprise me at home every day with new things they can do. When I have questions about developmental appropriateness for what I need to do to support my children's growth, they are courteous and knowledgeable about how I can help at home with their development. Thank you Celebree School!"

"I highly recommend Celebree. The teachers are just wonderful and attentive. The class structure provides a sense of COMFORT and my son just seems to thrive in their learning environment. This school is home for our family!! 🙂"

"Celebree has been amazing for our daughter’s growth and development and for us as new parents. The staff is incredibly kind and understanding- they helped me so much the especially the first few weeks when I was nervous leaving my daughter with anyone. The communication is top notch and classrooms are fun. Our daughter smiles every morning when we drop her off! I couldn’t ask for more!"

"There are not enough positive words to express what Celebree means to our family. From the second we arrived we have experienced nothing but kindness, love, and compassion from this amazing community. Leaving your child with anyone is never easy but to know that they are safe, LOVED, and cared for as if they are staying with family makes it a little easier. When he transitioned to a new classroom, the staff made sure he had plenty of time to feel comfortable in his new environment. My son’s teachers helped my son (and us) understand how he learns best and treated him with such compassion as he found his grove. "

"Celebree has helped my son FLOURISH with everything from language to social skills. They teach not only ABCs, but what it means to be a good friend, and how to express your feelings. If you are looking for a place that is more than just childcare and will truly nurture your little one, look no further than the Celebree family."

"Our experience at Celebree has been great. Teachers are amazing, and I love the end of the day detailed report. They take the time to provide feedback about development and growth of my child. It’s a very friendly atmosphere and comforting when we see our son happily entering into the facility – administration and teachers always greeting him, and he just wants to go and play with his friends. We have seen him grow so much after joining Celebree. This is his first daycare and we haven't been disappointed!"

"There is nothing that compares to the peace of mind you get as a parent knowing that your child is somewhere they love to be. My 2 year old has always had trouble forming attachments to others outside of my husband and I, but she has quickly learned to trust and love her teachers at Celebree. It's easy to tell that the teachers really care about the kids they work with, because the behavior of a 2 year old doesn't lie. My daughter is always excited to go to school and sometimes she doesn't even want to come home! I was surprised at how quickly she formed relationships with the teachers because she wasn't even this attached to the nanny she had for over a year. Highly recommend Celebree!"
