Great school, communication from the school is excellent, exceeds expectations, the attention given to each child from what I can tell, via the daily and weekly reports and the projects that come home, are specific and detailed enough one could think there was only one kid in the class. Our son smiles when we drop him off and when we pick him up. And he's learning so much there, from his teachers and his peers.

My 3 children attended this wonderful daycare! Staff is attentive and loving. The admin is helpful and excel at communication. My children thrived there and I highly recommend this school!

Wonderful friendly, caring staff. Wouldn't send my little ones anywhere else.
And they have been wonderful accommodating my busy work schedule.

Such a loving and warm environment with great education! Have had three kids there over the past 5 years. Highly recommend KCP!

I would give 10 stars if I could. The teachers, staff - everyone who works there is amazing. Our children were so well taken care of and beyond ready for kindergarten. I can't thank them enough for taking care of both of my children.

The perfect combination of warm and loving while structured and organized. I feel like my kids are in the best hands each and every day at KCP. Highly recommend!

Truly no better school out there! Every teacher is amazing, the owner and director are so invested in your children, and the activities/projects are so educational and well thought out. Id trust the infant teacher to raise my children from birth!

THE best preschool. So grateful for KCP and the amazing teachers who work there. They love and care for our children from the infant room all the way through pre-k. Recommend 100%

This is a great school and a great environment for the kids.
We've arrived from Israel a few months ago and our 4 y.o son started the Pre-K program. The teachers and Elana, the director, made it all for him to be comfortable and adjust well. The team is very responsive to any requests I might have, they are always happy to answer questions and meet me halfway. Elana sends me pics of my kid at school almost on a daily basis.
The kids are busy, the program is good. I like the option of ordering a hot home-like lunch every day.
My younger daughter is starting an Infant program in 2 weeks. We're definitely staying with Kol Chaverim next year!

Best school
Tell me why is more than just a great school. Tell me why has been our home and our family for the last 3 years (I have a 5 years old daughter). The owner is amazing. She wrap every child with lots of warmth, love, care and understanding. She treats the children like they were her own kids, in a caring, gentle and patient way. The kids attract to her like a magnet. All the teachers are certified and well educated. The children get so much love and warmth from the teachers, yet there is no compromise on their education or academic achievements. I am very happy that my daughter has 2 hours of "quiet time" (she is not forced to nap but she should get some rest). The kids are still young and it is important for them to have this special time to lay down and get some more energies for the afternoon activities. Some kids stay at school from 7:30 to 6:00. It is a long day. The owner is there all the time, her door is open to the parents and she is always happy to answer any question. She will accommodate you and help you in each and every matter. She would listen, solve problems, yet she would stand still and will not compromise in terms of education qualities, and the benefit of the child will always be her first priority . I have been to other schools, and as a mother and a certified teacher, I must say that there is nothing to compare. At "Tell me why" the kids get so much in all aspects, and the most important thing (to me) is that they get a real second warm home (most of them spend a full day, 5 days a week in school). The teachers give their hearts and souls to the children and it is not just "work" for them, but a mission. I am so happy with this school that even my 18 months has been enrolled recently to Tell me why. I know she is being loved, cared and safe. Both my daughters bring home so many art projects and academic work. I would sure recommend this school for any parent. My girls are so happy at Tell me why, they do not want to leave at the end of the day. Maybe parents can be wrong. Children don`t.

After learning about Kol Chaverim and getting a tour of the facility, we were extremely impressed and really loved the atmosphere and environment from the beginning. As first time parents this was a scary process and the teachers and director really made it comforting and eased our worries. Choosing Kol Chaverim as our child’s daycare was not a hard decision, there was no other choice in the area that even compared.

We have our 2 girls enrolled full time during the year as well as in the summer! Great, loving , care, dedication and concentration on holidays, themes and enriching education. All the teachers are a pleasure!

Kol Chaverim provides a safe, warm, trusting and engaging environment for my three children. The varied activities they participate in daily, from hands-on music to yoga, and the differentiated education they receive is par excellence. All three of my children have gained confidence emotionally, socially and educationally, which has given them the self-assurance that is so crucial to entering elementary school.

For our daughter, KCP is a home away from home, where she longs to go to learn, play and make friends. It is a Preschool where the teachers are knowledgeable and professional, as they are loving and kind. The teachers are aware and cognizant of proper child development and are equipped to help each child develop into their own selves and personalities. The children are cared for with an unparalleled sense of care, commitment and devotion. The small class sizes enable the children to develop strong social skills and magnificent friendships. The classroom set-up is bright and welcoming, creating an environment conducive to learning and growth. All in all, KCP is one of the best choices we have made for the care of our child and we love being part of this magnificent family.

We weren’t sure what we were going to do with our 4 month old son once I went back to work, and had gone through several nanny interviews and were about to hire one. We then came upon Kol Chaverim almost by chance and at the last minute decided to send our baby to day care. As first time parents we were nervous on the first day, but we are so glad we found Kol Chaverim. The small class size, the loving and nurturing environment and the flexibility of the program are only a few of the reasons we are happy there. But most of all, we feel a sense of security leaving our son at school every day, with the ongoing communication throughout the day, we know he is safe, taken care of, and happy.

Kol Chaverim is a wonderful preschool. The first time we toured the facility we were very impressed. The building is clean, organized, bright and cheerful. The staff is very friendly, warm and loving with the children. Elana, the preschool director, is always available to talk about your child and is very accommodating to working parents and scheduling changes. She is also very involved with all the children on a daily basis. I love the variety of activities they have including music and yoga. They have a monthly curriculum calendar and the children are always learning new things in creative ways. My daughter gets lots of one on one attention and loves playing with the animals. She loves going to school and doesn’t want to leave when I come to pick her up! I would recommend Kol Chaverim to everyone.
