Nicholson is a very good school.... My kid really loved the school.Ms Shelley always ensure quality to the parents. My son was there wasfor six months and every single day he comes home with activity sheets and art work . They dont force the kids to do things. and they teach some practical life .. CLEANLINESS is always there and I loved that.They only have school until 3pm ...If they extend the time till 6pm, it would be comfortable for working moms.... Overall its is a great school!

Good school. Shelly ensure all the classes are going good. Good toys, Books, Daily activities are good. Practical lessons like Banking, shopping, Hospital, Counters, kitchen setups are done at the hall way. Cleanliness. Shelly/Kate or from management responsibly calls back if our kid is absent for more than a day.

My daughter is a clingy child, very sweet, very loving, but has always been a bit wary of strangers. So trying to find a mothers day out program that would suit her personality as well as give me peace of mind was very difficult for me. Finally, after touring the Nicholson Early Childhood Education Center, I felt at ease. The director of the school is obviously at the top of her game as far as childhood development is concerned, she knows her stuff. They use positive affirmation and avoid negative disciplining techniques that I have seen in other schools. My daughter is in the youngest class, the owls, and she absolutely loves her teacher. She still cries when I drop her off, but she reaches for her teacher and stops as soon as Im no longer in sight.Whenever I pick her up, she is happy and almost always has at least one painting or art project to bring home. I also love that they provide a snack and hot lunches! It makes it so much easier for me than having to plan and pack a lunch on the days she goes. Right now she is on a 2 day schedule. I love that they let me choose which days she attends, and I was able to make it work for my part time work schedule.I highly recommend this school. Of all the places I toured, and there were many, this was the only one that made me feel comfortable enough to leave my daughter here.. and I still feel that way several months into her attending!

My 2 year old daughter has been at Nicholson for 5 months. I am continually impressed and delighted by the quality of this preschool. Everything that Miss Shelley and her teachers do is intentional, well-planned, and seems to have a strong basis in pedagogy. The education is so sound, and yet, at the same time, it is a FUN school for my little girl! The environment is cheery and welcoming, and the children get to participate in all sorts of imaginative and cooperative play. In her classroom, which is for the littlest kids, there is a different activity in the sensory table every morning, and toys set out on the tables that often reflect the theme of the week. My daughter loves the school, which is so telling. The student to teacher ratio is lower than any other preschool Ive seen in this area. I cant say enough about Nicholson. Bravo!

We are so lucky to have found NECEC!!! This warm early childhood education center offers so much more than just a place for your son or daughter to meet some friends. Shelley Nicholson and her loving staff create a safe caring home away from home for our son. Everyday he is greeted with smiles, hugs and trains to kick-start another fun-filled day at preschool. His teacher is so great at setting up engaging activities that foster a love for discovery and learning. We would and do recommend NECEC to everyone we know with a young child.

A warm, creative school with a very knowledgable and thoughtful director who is ready to discuss all kinds of educational questions with parents. When we visited recently all the students were exceptionally kind and welcoming to my daughter.

My 6 year old went here last year and LOVED it. We transferred her from a local Montessori school because she started crying everyday that she wanted to stay home. After she switched to Nicholson, the tears stopped. She learned a lot more and was a lot happier when she was allowed to explore and play.
