Ms Deanna is amazing. My Deanna hands down is the best childcare environment around and I interviewed a lot. My son was in her care for over 2 years. He started kindergarten this year and still talks about how much fun he had at her school and how much he misses her.Not only is her school safe and fun but she also really prepares them for kindergarten. She helps the children both academically, socially, and emotionally. All of these aspects are so important and she does a great job! I thank Ms Deanna for her amazing school. She really makes you feel like part of the family.I highly recommend her.

We evaluated three Montessori schools and two other private schools before coming here. After spending just a small amount of time in the classroom and meeting the teacher, listening to the kids play and study, I was sold. I really cannot say enough good things about Deanna Barnes. Shes a smart, patient, caring, sensitive person with a wonderful sense of humor and a truly compassionate warmth for the children. My kid has never once in nearly a year said, I dont want to go. Not even once. This really is one of those rare gems that is full of love *and* education.

Amazing!! Deanna is a dream come true for our family! We had two boys whom had just come out if a bad preschool/ daycare situation when we found Deanna on CL. Her credentials speak for themselves, and she is just the most warm and considerate person. Since being with Deanna, almost 6 months now, my youngest son is so much calmer and focused. My oldest began kinder this year and is way advanced, thanks to Deannas fine tuning and patience. She works with the kids in a kindergarten type way, with lots of learning, mingled with lots of playing (not an intended pun, its really what it is), and tons of love. All the snacks she gives the kids are organic and healthy. My kids never ate so many vegetables!!There are few people I genuinely trust to take care of my kiddos, and Deanna by far has the medal of honor in that respect!! I highly, highly recommend her care to anyone looking for pre k care.
