Wollaston Recreational Facility

Great childcare and preschool! Especially for those who have children with food allergies! My daughter will start in the toddler room soon and has peanut and tree nut allergies and WCCC is amazingly careful with their allergy protocols. They are a truly nut free facility and I have done my research. I feel safe bringing my daughter there! My son who is 4 years old has been going there for 2 years. He has gone through the first three classrooms toddler room, #1 and #2 and will be in classroom 4 starting soon. He LOVES the school. He never complains about going. Their curriculum is excellent and they offer a diverse spectrum of experiences for the kids. They are a structured and rigid with their schedules but I liked it since it was consistent and the children thrived on the predictable routine. Their teacher-student ratios are lower than Ive seen in some other preschools which lets the kids more one on one attention. Lastly, their prices are great and everyone is so friendly! I would highly recommend this childcare!

My son was in the toddler room at Wollaston in 2017 and it was absolutely wonderful. I felt very safe having him spend his day here. The staff are so friendly and professional, and it's clear that they love children. The facility is immaculately clean and safe - both for injury prevention and for security against intruders. The communication is excellent: the teachers give you a detailed report every day to tell you all of the important things that your baby did or didn't do, and they always make a point of grabbing you at pickup time to elaborate, or to tell a fun story about your kid. The Director responds to emails very quickly I'm more of an emailer than a caller, and always gives you the feeling that nothing is a problem even though she has to deal with hundreds of anxious parents like myself every day. They send monthly newsletters, and notices for absolutely everything that goes on, such as teachers going on vacation, building upgrades, special events, a bug going around, etc. The education/ socialization element in the toddler room was also fantastic. In a few short months, my son was counting to 20, knew all his colors, uses a fork and spoon well, knows to share and take turns, say sorry and comfort others, and best of all - clean up his toys! He also got lots of running around time and outdoor time to keep him healthy and full of energy. Food-wise, another five stars. They provide a healthy morning and afternoon snack fruit, vegetables, crackers, etc which everyone eats together. I didn't realize how valuable this was until we left - not only is it a lot less to pack and plan for the night before, but it was so great for equalizing cultural, philosophical, and socioeconomic differences that are on display when kids open their lunch boxes that their parents packed. As they share in this meal, their differences melt away for a time. It is also a nut- free facility, which shows the level of respect and inclusiveness that they show every child a small inconvenience for those without allergies, but a world of difference to those with them. I could go on and on about what a great place I think this is, but the bottom line is that the new Director runs an excellent program - above the standard in every way. She actually teaches compliance and facility management to other childcare operators in her spare time. My son absolutely adores his teachers, as do I, and I couldn't recommend this place more. *Note, the only reason we are not still there is because we relocated. I cried more than my son when we left.

The call I perator service attitude is very poor
