What Parents Say
5 reviews from parents
We've been at TOPS for a little over two years now, and we really love the staff there, from Ms. Tish and Ms. Amy in the office, to so many of the teachers that interact with our kiddo throughout the school year and summer—Ms. Melody, Ms. Cat, Ms. Mary in the kitchen, Ms. Reagan, Ms. Cheryl, and of course Mr. Marquis. We had a rough daycare experience before finding TOPS and I'm so thankful that they truly care for our kiddo. They've been so adaptive and accommodating since he has different needs and developmental delays. Finding a childcare facility that really cares about kids like ours means so much. The teachers are very open with communication and ask questions about how best to support our son. That goes a really long way for us as parents. We're so thankful to be part of the TOPS family!!
My favorite staff and daycare! My son enjoyed being here for 4 years. Big shout out to Mrs. Elaine, Mrs. Denise, Mrs. Reagan , Mrs. Alma,Mrs. G,Mrs. Tish, Mrs. Melody & Mrs Amy 🙏🏽❤️ This place helped prepare my kiddo for school and I am confident that he will do well at his new school thanks to Twin Oaks Private School
My daughter is excited to go to school everyday to learn and play and I give all that credit to her amazing teacher, Ms. Denise! She is patient, kind, and truly inspiring as a teacher. Over just a short amount of time my daughter has learned so much. The school has so many opportunities and activities that the kids enjoy. We love the environment and the people at Twin Oaks Private School!
My 2 oldest kids attended twin oaks years ago and now with my final addition to the family, can you guess where she has ended up? Twin Oaks has grown immensely over the years and only getting better. The teachers are helpful, attentive and friendly. My daughter can't wait to get to school in the morning and interact with the staff and her friends. Thank you Twin Oaks for providing the best care for my most precious gift!!!
Our 4 year old son began daycare for the first time ever on Sep. 21st and being so attached to us, I worried how well he would transition. We could not be more pleased with our experience thus far! Being the youngest of five, our son is a great communicator and tells us in detail about his whole day. The staff are all helpful, cheerful, patient, and thoughtful toward parents and children. Upon walking down the hallway, it is clear each room has a schedule that the children are accustomed to because they have great classroom control and the children are always engaged in an activity. TOPS has a full monthly activity calendar to include the whole family!
