I love the pre-k class at Educare! The lead teacher, Miss Kaitlynne, is phenomenal and always thinks of the most creative learning activities to engage her students in literacy and math practice. She’s also great at communicating with parents and posts daily videos and pictures of the kids in a closed Facebook group. It’s so neat to get a glimpse into their school day and see all of the learning happening! I can’t recommend Educare highly enough!

I fell in love with this place after touring it, I loved that the class sizes were not too large, that the rooms were very child oriented, and that they offered up to kindergarten. The atmosphere is so warm and caring, everyone truly loves working with children and cares about each individual one. All the teachers seem to know my son and will always greet him when they see him. Everyday his teacher will tell me something special about his day or a strength/new skill they have noticed in him; it’s very comforting knowing he is so well cared for during the day. I am so happy I found this daycare center, my experience has been more than positive and I always recommend it to anyone that is looking for a center.

Educare has been a wonderful experience for us so far. Our daughter (first child) is in the infant room. The teachers are all awesome. They care for the children as if they are their own. Even just being there a short time so far, we are confident that as our daughter grows, she will get the education and social interaction skills that we would not be able to provide at home. The excellent care at school makes us both feel at ease dropping her off and heading to work for the day. Hours are great too!

Educare has proved to be an excellent choice for our family. Prior to enrolling we toured multiple facilities within the area, all at various price points, and felt very comfortable with the atmosphere at Educare. The infant room teachers are especially lovely and caring - qualities we greatly appreciated when heading back to work as first time parents. Now in the toddler room, we appreciate the added focus on development and the amount of outdoor time the children receive. 5 stars!

I would give this school a five star rating. They are clean, safe, and caring. I feel comfortsble leaving my 2 children under their care and have done so for 5 years.

I cannot say enough good things about Educare. They work so well with every child there. My daughter has excelled beyond what my expectations were. She is even starting to learn Spanish.

Both my children love school and their teachers. They receive great care and I feel they are safe and happy.

It’s been excellent. My 2 year old wants to go, and that tells me all I need to know.

Coming from a disappointing experience at a different childcare center (our first child, and first time finding a daycare), this daycare center was godsend and a breath of fresh air! We have two children currently attending Educare and we (and they) LOVE it! My toddler loves his teachers and can't wait to tell us about his day at pickup (usually he doesn't even want to leave because he's enjoying being with his classmates and teachers so much). They provide an excellent amount of activity, learning, and outdoor time, and we can't begin to explain how much it means to us to know that our children are happy and in good hands while we work full time - I've seen my toddler grow so much in the short time he's been here. My other son is in the infant room, and the teachers are loving and take care of them like they are their own. There's been more than one occasion where the staff have lifted me up on "rough" mornings with their kind words and willingness to help out getting the boys settled. We also had a week where our infant was in the hospital with a cold and the staff went out of their way to support us and check in on us and the baby while he was out - AMAZING STAFF and LEADERSHIP here, folks. : ) All of the teachers we have met thus far (as well as those running the center) have treated both our children and my husband and I with respect and kindness. They are supportive and really show that they care every day. SoOo VERY happy we found this place - wouldn't go anywhere else!!

We are very pleased with the results we are getting from having our daughter enrolled at Educare! We can’t wait so our son to start in the infants room!

The director of this school should NOT be in customer service. She is absolutely horrible, rude and condescending. Which, is really unfortunate because I love the teachers here. My advice is to STAY AWAY. Do not give this woman your money.

Great Job Educare On 11/27/12, the staff in the infant room administered rescue breathing to a 5 month old baby who had an apnea episode during his nap. During a routine check on the infants, the teacher noticed the child was not breathing, and immediately picked him up and started Rescue Breathing. Doctor's congratulated the directoor and the staff on a job well done. Knowing what to do, and acting quickly saved this child's life. Thank goodness all the staff at Educare is certified in C.P.R. and 1st. Aid. This was published in the N.H. Union Leader on Dec. 1st. and in the Goffstown News on Dec. 6th.

Academics are well spoken for in these reviews. My son is 4, but he is in the Pre-K room instead of with the younger 4's because he will be in Kindergarten next year. Each room is categorized with children of all the same age, no mixed ages, which is a plus! Each class is able to provide age appropriate activities and their curriculum is of high standards. The older children have music and Spanish lessons in their curriculum. My son enjoys everything they offer including dance and karate. They also provide lunch and snacks so I do not have to bring anything. Every year Educare celebrates it's birthday with a carnival for all the kids and their parents, which my son cannot wait for! Happy 27th birthday Educare!

They rely on television/movies far too much on a daily basis. I also believe some of the teachers can be quite rude to the children. Disappointing

I have had 5 children attend this school, and a neice. I am also aware of how some other childcare centers operate, because I have represented parents that have had serious problems with their child's center. I have also served on a stateadvisory board. I believe Educare is one of the best in the state. Although there have been times when I have had disagreements with their staff about disciplinary issues, they have always been willing to work with me and with my children, and the problems have been solved. Most importantly, my children LOVE to go to school there every day, and the youngest, now 4 1/2, amaze me with how much they have learned. They stress outdoor activities, so the kids grow healthy and strong and well-socialized. The teachers are caring and friendly. When my children were babies I would visit at lunch time to nurse them, and talk with the teachers, and they wre a pleasure to be with. I could not disagree more with the negative reviews on here.

My daughter has been enrolled in Educare since this past October and my son just started this past week. Contrary to the early post about this facility, our experience has been top notch. The staff is professional, the facility itself is clean and very well organized and most of all my children enjoy their time at Educare. My daughter has made leaps and bounds in terms of her abilities to write, recognize and sound out the alphabet. Her counting/ math skills have improved. I credit this to her amazing teacher! I have no doubt my son will also excel at this school in time. I am thrilled that my children are able to be part of an environment that truly is a further extension of our household. I wouldn t hesitate to recommend this facility to anyone looking for a great environment for their child to learn and play.

Our son has been attending the Pre-K program and we absolutely love it. He is learning so much academically and the emphasis on respect and other social skills is tremendous. His self confidence has increased greatly with the skill sets he is building upon. The staff is very friendly, always willing to communicate what is going on, and do a great job of keeping us up to date on progress, activities, etc.

I wouldn't recommend this school to any parent. Very difficult to get ahold of in an emergency. Also, they seem to watch TV quite a bit. As a parent if I'm paying this much money, I'd like my child to be interacted with and doing activities or looking at a book rather than sitting in front of a TV.

We really did not like this school at all and were very disappointed with it. Very disorganized and poorly developed. We were very shocked with them and did not like the enviroment. We took our daughter to another daycare and she is now much happier! I would not recommend this place to any parent.
