| - My son has been attending Natural Choice Academy practically since it opened, and it is the only place I would ever send him to preschool. I use the word "preschool" and not "daycare" because that is what Natural Choice Academy is - a preschool. The children are encouraged to explore and learn and ask questions, and they do a variety of developmentally appropriate art, sensory, and academic activities. When my two-year-old comes home from school, tells me he's "a paleontologist," and gleefully points out a "dinosaur femur" in a book we are reading, it really validates my decision to send him to NCA.
More importantly, he is LOVED when he goes to school. His teachers have all been amazing, and the owners are personable and present. My son asks to go to school every day - even on the days we aren't enrolled! His teachers always have anecdotes and stories to share each day, and they even email pictures of him several times of week.
I can't help but be confused by a previous poster's comment about the food. I've actually seen inside the cupboards and stayed for lunch several times. Not only is the food DELICIOUS, it is nearly all organic and natural. Applesauce is Trader Joe's organic. Milk is Shamrock Farms organic. My son's favorite lunch is an amazing chicken noodle soup with ABC pasta. I asked the nutrition director where she found the ABC pasta, and she showed me a box of Deboles organic alphabet pasta. This is in addition to all the food the kids eat from the on-site organic garden! It's pretty amazing to be able to ask my toddler where carrots come from, and he will respond "from the garden" rather than "from the store." But really, I challenge you to find another preschool where your child will eat homemade quinoa and lentil soup, saffron rice with chicken, or beef and eggplant stew over brown rice (with the eggplant picked directly from the garden outside)! I love the healthy eating habits this school has instilled in my child from the moment he started eating solids.
I wouldn't say Natural Choice Academy is cheap, but I absolutely believe you get what you pay for. And frankly, we toured a preschool three miles away that charged higher tuition and a menu of canned fruit cocktail and Life cereal. I'll stick with NCA any day.
I would highly recommend Natural Choice Academy to anyone looking for a safe, loving, engaging, healthy environment for their child.
