It was the last name of a donor. Karasik can handle kids with medical needs and special needs, which is rare in a daycare setting.

I have no feedback on the schools, but I find it cute that the Karasik means "little carp" (as in, a type of fish) in Russian and I assume in whatever Eastern European language the owners hail from.

Karasik has great teachers, but the administration is beyond unprofessional, especially the finance department. The tuitions might be cheaper, but be prepared to pay in another way. Very stressful to deal with because you often don't even get a response. They cannot keep records straight. Again, the teachers are great.

SSPC is up to $2400 per month?! Dang. I toured both a few years ago but ended up elsewhere, but know of a few families who were happy at Karasik.

Looking for any experiences with Karasik (KFICCC) and/or Silver Spring Presbyterian Church (SSPC) Children's Center for infants. Karasik is significantly cheaper (1700 vs 2400 a month) but cost is not my top criteria, or course. Thank you!!
