My daughter attended their Quality Initiative Program (QPI), pretty much a free pre-school for all program regardless of your income. The state funds it and it's a 3 hour class Monday-Friday. Two years later, I'm glad they still offer this program. My son is able to attend this school and have the same teacher. Ms. Becky and Ms. Elluz. They are wonderful teachers, very caring and nurturing. They offer after school program and have a school bus pick up your child from their school for a fee. I feel comfortable leaving my child under their care. They provide you an 'ouch' report if any incident happens, a scratch or a bump. If I can afford their childcare once I start working, I wouldn't hesitate to have them look after my children. I love this pre-school/day care facility. Ms. Ashley, the director is very nice and approachable and easy to talk to and the teachers are awesome!

My child became ill while in attendance at this school and I am very unsatisfied about the way it was handled. When trying to resolve the issue I feel that the director was dismissive of the problem and rude to me. I do not recommend Children's Paradise based on this and further issues.

I love this pre-school!!! My son and I chose it even before it was time for him to go full time. Miss Glorivette (coordinator of the pre-k club) is amazing, very creative and deals well with the kids and parents. I recomend this school fro everyone!!!

I've had my daughter attend daycare and preschool at Children's Paradise since she was six months old. I love this school and would recommend it to any parent who wants to have their baby in a safe, nurturing, loving daycare environment. The school goes to great strides to teach toddlers social skills, table manners and potty train them lovingly. For older children, the school provides excellent pre-K academics, wonderful field trips and a variety of learning experiences (e.g. themes each week, farm life, healthy eating, global warming, history, science, animals living in the rain forest, etc.). The playground is almost the size of a football field! My daughter loves her friends and school. It will be so sad the day she graduates, but I plan on sending my son there after he turns 1. My only concern is that teacher turnover has increased for the first time this year.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.

Oops! We currently do not have any student information for this school. We rely on the state Department of Education, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES), and in some cases school administrators such as registrars and principals for this data.
