It's a great concept though! (The Natural and Organic)!

DWLC owners (the people running this new thing) disappeared from the school (showing up only occasionally, even though both were teachers) ...families were left without care in December with no refund for a years tuition. And yes, teacher's weren't paid either. Honestly, I cannot understand why or how the owners can open another program with such a self-imposed disaster on their heads previously.

You mean the old owners who are now Nuturing Roots or the new owners of Eastern Ridge fiscally mismanaged money? I'm assuming you mean the Nuturing Roots folks don't manage money well. It's very sad what happened, but it seems to be a trend with smaller daycare and preschool businesses having to close. A similar thing happened to a new Montessori in Falls Church and our own child's home daycare had to spend tons of time and money arguing against the recent law changes to home daycares in Fairfax County.

Why are they now in McLean? They used to have two houses in Vienna and Herndon area.

Not sure it's such a good idea to post the teachers you need on your website. It's a new school, so of course they're looking to hire, but I look at those and think there isn't enough staff to run the place.

Bump...anyone notice that they've restructured their pricing? Still pretty high.

Many of the various county and regional park authority Nature Centers are FREE to visit and also run low cost classes for kids 3+ years old. Classes are great, some combining lessons in nature with art.

Stay away from the scammers and instead spend a few bucks to support local government programs to keep them running (and those folks won't walk away with half-years tuition).

Why are they so secretive of the school's location? I can't find an address anywhere. What is it?

It's a home daycare so they don't publish it.

That tuition is the highest I have ever seen...what is going on!?
Also "We consider our program a “lab school” and we use it as a model program for continuous professional development and authentic research into best practice as we refine our approach." makes me more than suspicious...

You are paying them to homeschool their kids.
