"Holly and Dawn were my kids very first teachers.  Their passion for teaching, their amazing natural instincts and their enthusiasm absolutely laid the foundation for my kids to grow and love going to school!"
​– Laura Rabinovitz

"Holly and Dawn worked with our children for the last 3 school years, and we could not be happier with their remarkable ability to connect and relate to young people.  They took into account how best to create a safe and engaging learning environment where our sweet little Loves felt comfortable and excited to learn and explore. At the outset, Dawn and Holly made every effort to assist our children and their classmates with their social and emotional needs, making sure to take into consideration all of their unique qualities and characteristics.  Our children were empowered and free to express themselves as they see fit and creatively engage with classroom materials and all the wonders of the natural world.  We feel honored that our children had the opportunity to learn and grow alongside Dawn and Holly. Their expertise and kindness are unmatched and we are so appreciative for all they do everyday as seasoned educators, artists, and compassionate human beings."

"As a preschool educator, Holly Beckert had an immeasurable, positive, life-long impact on my kid’s social and emotional development. My kid is a teenager now, and daily I am in awe of the foundational strength of his social and emotional intelligence, which I credit in full to the precious developmental years he spent with Holly Beckert and her team of preschool educators who skillfully nurtured his empathy, compassion, curiosity and creativity. I am so grateful."

"Dawn is an amazing teacher who connected with and thought about my child’s emotional well being and development. She encouraged him to advocate for himself but to also know she was always there for him. Holly is adept at using creative ways to encourage risk taking and growth in children. She was able to encourage and support my child to explore the world and in making progress that he felt really good about. "

"Holly loved and gently guided my daughter through three years of preschool.  She leads with her enormous, positive and inspiring heart.  She finds joy in every day... in every experience with children.  Her commitment to quality, appropriate early childhood education shines through in all that she does with her students.  Holly made preschool a safe, loving, happy, welcoming and comfortable place to be for my quiet yet strong-willed, independent yet needy, helpful yet stubborn and bright yet timid daughter.  Holly was the perfect constant in my daughter’s preschool years. Dawn lovingly inspired, cared for and guided my daughter for her last two years of preschool.  My daughter has multiple food allergies and extremely sensitive skin; Dawn was diligent in making sure my daughter was safe, healthy and happy. Dawn’s commitment to providing quality early childhood education shines through in all that she does with children.  Her calm, gentle, patient and loving interactions with children set the tone for the classroom.  Dawn inspires children to reach for the stars, thoughtfully guides their child centered learning experiences through play and explores the world with them... sharing in the joys of learning through free exploration.  Dawn is amazing."
