  We’ve sent all three of our kids to Chesterbrook and they’ve absolutely loved it! They always do a good job with new activities and keeping it fun; though the focus on education is what sets them apart. Our twins are now in kindergarten and are thriving in the classroom. Many of our favorite teachers have been there a long time and the new principal has really made a big impact. Thank you Chesterbrook! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this school to any parent of young kids.

  Avoid, avoid, AVOID this place. Do not send your child here. Sending my young toddler to this center for the few months that he attended it is the biggest regret I’ve had as a mother. I ultimately pulled my son out of this place because he routinely came home with unexplained bruises, scapes, bite marks and welts on his little body. I ultimately first hand witnessed two older children kicking, hitting and biting my 18 month old while the “teacher” was being negligent. He was screaming & crying so loudly I could hear him from down the hall as soon as I entered the building. When I ran into his classroom, his teacher was sitting in the corner, playing on her phone, with her headphones in - very clearly and obviously choosing to ignore the screams coming from my child who was 5 feet away from her getting kicked, hit and bitten. We withdrew my son from the school that day - that was child neglect. I reported the incident to the “principle” (use that term loosely) who chose to offer excuses instead of implementing any corrective action towards the negligent teacher. When I asked for her to review the classroom video tapes to confirm the incident and to further report it, she indicated the cameras were “frozen”. It was also around this time that a different teacher was arrested for abusing a child in another classroom. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

  We moved to Cary from DC 4 months ago and we are so thrilled with Chesterbrook! Our daughter is 2 years old and absolutely loves it there. Her teachers, Ms. Danielle and Ms. Jeanine, are spectacular. Our daughter never cries at drop-off and has made many new friends. She often sings us the songs she's learned at school and already knows the colors in Spanish! She often says, "blue is azul, green is verde..." The preschool even works with our daughter on potty training. They provide a daily report, showing pictures of what our daughter did that day, which makes us feel informed. They also provide a daily list of what she ate and an update on her potty training. The school organizes events to involve parents like "bring your trike to school day" and the holiday party. Ms. Susan and the staff are super nice and we are very pleased with the way the preschool is run. Would highly recommend!

  Our family loves Chesterbrook! Our daughter has been enrolled in the infant classroom since January and she loves it. All of the teachers, Tasha, Kim, Toya, and Angie, have a genuine love for children and have warm, kind personalities. They do an amazing job preparing a thorough curriculum to stimulate her mind, body, social skills, etc, which is something we did not find at other centers. From an administration perspective, the principals, Tawni and Susan, are super friendly, responsive and organized. the center has flexible hours to accommodate family needs. Chesterbrook give us peace of mind that our daughter is in a safe, clean center that is helping her develop and grow.
