This place is truly a gem! People care. My kid has been here for about 2.5 years and every teacher team my kid has had, has been professional and supportive. Admin seems to have a good relationship with teachers and other staff, which is important for everyone. They do a lot of neat events that I’m not sure other places do (they may?) like Rockstarts, visiting on-site petting zoos, events for holidays, etc. Parents are generally friendly and involved in supporting their classes and center. So, it has a bit of a community feel that was probably more apparent in the Beforetimes. This is definitely not the Lord of the Flies childcare of my own youth.

All the reviews seem really positive.

It's ok. Just check reviews

We have been there for about 7 months with an infant and am very happy. Great communication, always seem to be extra staff around (like in a good way to support the teachers), and like a PP said, they just did a rather impressing fall festival event. So glad that this worked out- plan to be there through pk!

We’ve been at Karasik for years. It had some administrative challenges a couple of years ago that impacted employee morale, but the quality of care stayed high. There’s a new(ish) administration and they’re wonderful - working hard to bring back events and doing a lot to recognize and support staff and families. Can’t say enough good things about the center and the team there.

We are there now and it’s absolutely amazing. We were at 2 in-homes before we got here and I cannot sing enough praises. The new administration is great and they are starting up all their pre-pandemic activities.

Karasik is amazing. My oldest went here and my youngest will be starting soon. The teachers and current admin staff are great and responsive.

Considering Karasik for our 3 year old and soon-to-be 2 year old. Does anyone have nay recent experiences? Thanks!
