Unity continues to be a home away from home for our kids over the past 5 years. The teachers are amazingly attentive and knowledgeable in their craft. We have made life-long friends here and continue to recommend this special place to all who are looking for a strong community through these important preschool years!

Unity is truly a special place -- its a very small community committed to independent thinking, creative play, and kindness towards others. I love hearing my children talk about the amazing science experiments they do and seeing the outside-the-box artwork they create. This fall, my son went to study the dunes at Lighthouse Beach -- and he came home and taught me about how important they are to that ecosystem. The children are treated with respect and their opinions are regularly solicited and valued. My youngest will head to Kindergarten this year and I am confident that he will be socially and emotionally well prepared. I will miss this school!!

Unity has been there the whole way helping to teach our kids to talk and be social, to play well with others, and then to prepare for the next stage of their lives. Also Unity has brought us an amazing community of friends that has helped shape our life in Evanston. There is a wealth of play dates, birthday parties, trips to the park and even some events just for the parents. Highly recommended!

Unity is a wonderful, warm preschool. I have my two young children enrolled here. They both enjoy going to school and come home with a wealth of exciting, fun thoughts & activities. The teacher staff is marvelous. They know how to help both children and parents adjust to and enjoy preschool. The facilities are bright, new and welcoming.Unity is a smaller school so the network of families is very tight knit. It is a great community which offer support, friendship and lots of learning.

We have loved Unity since starting this past September (2015). I have children in both the 2/3s and 4/5s class. The teachers are great communicators and create a loving environment for the children in their classrooms. All classes are play-based and include a lot of outdoor time (weather permitting) which is great for high-energy little ones! A wonderfully unexpected bonus of this school has been the welcoming parent community. Moving from out of state was a huge adjustment for our family and the kindness and inclusiveness of the Unity parents has made our transition so much easier. We look forward to the remainder of our time at Unity.

I can highly recommend unity preschool in Evanston. Weve already spent four years there and are thrilled with the nurturing caring environment created by the staff and teachers. Our children have been able to thrive in this warm environment while gently being encouraged to reach their developmental milestones. The community at unity is also very welcoming. There are many casual events to get to know other families and we have made great friends during our time there.

We are in the midst of the fifth of what will be six fantastic years as a Unity Preschool family. A team of teachers and administrators have consistently done a wonderful job introducing self-reliance skills, kindness, and foundational skills for kindergarten.In addition to the traditional preschool experience, we have joined for the Unity summer bunch program every year and have also taken advantage of lunch bunch and early drop off activities. All of these are well organized and well executed by staff.Through Unity, we have developed new friendships with area families that continue expanding as our kids get older and my guess is that many of them will remain close friends for as long as we live in Evanston.We highly recommend Unity!

Our family has loved Unity, both of my children attended starting at age 2. The faculty is wonderful, always keeping my very inquisitive little ones exploring and learning about themselves and the world with creative and out of the box ideas. They also promote a great feeling of community with casual fun events for everyone.

We love Unity Nursery (now called Unity Preschool). The director, Miss Katie is awesome. All of the teachers are devoted, well-trained and very patient with little kids. I love the flexibility that the school offers in terms of days and the warm and caring atmosphere. My two daughters have both loved it here.

I dont know how many times I have to say this. I just LOVE LOVE LOVE Unity Preschool!!!!! It is a small neighborhood school and does exactly what a neighborhood school does: get into the neighborhood! We dont have a fancy playground in our school because we have many fun playgrounds in the neighborhood. We dont have top of line toys and play-strcutures because we play in and with what we have surrounding us. We dont have day-to-day teacher reports because our teachers are busy playing with our children. We dont have homework or study-sheets because learning happens naturally when children play. Thank you for our wonderful teachers!

In 2014 we had the daunting task of selecting a preschool site-unseen while living out of state. I joined a couple of social media parents networking groups, and Unity received rave reviews. Upon visiting with the Director a few times long distance, and registering from a far (still hoping I made the right decision) we were welcomed with open arms when we moved to Evanston the summer before school began. My husband was deployed with the military and the Director recommended we try out their Summer Bunch program to not only meet new friends and help my son learn the ropes of his new school, but to also aid in my transition to a new area. I cannot rave enough about the love and kindness that the Unity Community greeted us with on all levels.Three years later, my oldest is a happy alum (who went to Kindergarten extremely well-prepared) and my youngest is still so thrilled to go to school every day in her second year there. She loves all of the teachers, the creative and developmental sensory projects, learning about other cultures and new foods, the wonderful new music teacher and even the out of school social gatherings (both pre-planned an impromptu that emerge). I also love that the school participates in various projects throughout the year to teach the children about the importance of kindness and giving back to others in the Evanston community.If youre looking for a preschool community that not only provides a wonderful play-based education, but goes above and beyond to make new families feel welcome, Unity is your answer.
