We are a current CIS (N. Scott) family and absolutely love the school. Our child has been in both the 2s and 3s rooms, and we have been very happy. The teachers are all wonderful (truly warm and nurturing people), they engage the children in tons of activities, and there is a great backyard playground. Based on my conversations with other parents, I get the feeling that this sentiment is shared.

Re: Kindercare Nova. We pulled our child about a year ago due to the issues that I'm sure you've heard about so I can't give you any recent reviews. However, I will say that we have stayed in touch with the lead teacher in the 2s room (where it sounds like you might put your child) and she is a wonderful person. I've also heard that the director who drove everyone to leave is no longer with the center. Hopefully things will turn around. We had a number of great years there and do miss many of the teachers.

Is anyone able to provide some recent or current reviews for C I S on North Scott or the NOVA kindercare? I'm looking into the centers for my 2.5 year old and seen a lot of mixed reviews, but mostly dated.
