Our family loves Chesterbrook Academy! My son start at Chesterbrook a year and half ago at the age of 1.5 in Miss.Colleens room and she made the transition so easy with providing us with updates throughout the day on his progress. Even as he’s moved into different classes we still see Miss Colleen in the halls and she always says hello and interacts with our son. Miss Jamie the principal is so friendly and always available to answer any questions we have! When we had to eventually put our 6 month old daughter into childcare Miss Jordyn and Miss Des made me feel at ease leaving her in their care.
I cannot say enough good things about Chesterbrook, from the curriculum, the fun activities planned for the kids daily and all the friendly teaches and staff, this is a wonderful place to bring your children

My son attended the CBA Preschool from 12 weeks to 5 years and my daughter is now in the Pre-K room but started as an infant. The teachers, administration and program is amazing. As a parent, I feel connected to my child’s day and always feel heard when working to manage a challenge. The program has a great mix of curriculum based learning combine with visitors like the Elmwood Park Zoo, Soccer Shots, Little Sports, Making Music with Mr. Daniel and offsite field trips! Ms. Meesa makes learning fun and engages the kids in new and exciting ways. She is an adaptable teacher with time spent at all age levels. Ms. Tina puts all her heart into shaping her students lives and is always interested in what is going on in the kids lives both in school and out of school. Ms. Ashley and Ms. Lexie are amazing at managing the challenging transition from young toddlers to self service individuals. I don’t know how they do it and always with a smile! Ms. Sao and Ms. Rhonda keep the energy high with great emphasis on art, culture, music and dancing. Ms. Kara and Ms. Jen focus on skills and knowledge important for the big transition of Kindergarten and moving to a new school.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with Chesterbrook Academy Preschool in West Chester. The preschool program is truly outstanding – it’s clear that the teachers and staff genuinely care about each child. Miss Ashley, in particular, has been incredible. She creates such a warm, nurturing classroom environment while also challenging the kids with fun, engaging activities that build confidence and spark curiosity.
The school does a fantastic job preparing children for kindergarten by focusing not only on academics, but also on social-emotional skills and independence. There are so many learning opportunities throughout the day – from hands-on projects to creative play – and you can really see the kids growing and thriving.
We are so grateful for the caring staff and the strong foundation they’re giving our child. I would highly recommend Chesterbrook Academy to any family looking for a supportive, enriching preschool experience.

We’ve had three kids through Chesterbrook preschool and are very happy with our experience over their time there! Truly all of the teachers are highly engaged and they all know each and every kid in the school. Meesa was with one of my boys for a couple of his classes from his infant room, through age 3 and he looks at her just like she’s a part of the family (arguably his favorite person in the whole family). She is awesome and her classroom of kids love her so much. All of the teachers are great throughout! Meesa, Lexi, Jen, Karan, Des are all amazing and my kids have learned a lot from them!
NGL - price is steep, but I think that’s the nature of daycare these days
