  I sent my daughter to All saints starting as young as 6 months old and kept her there until the older 3’s toddler class. It was a wonderful place to send her as a baby and a young toddler. As she got older, we noticed some things that we didn’t love, but didn’t dislike enough to pull her out right away, such as: chaotic and loud morning drop offs with music blasting and kids jumping around like crazy (cute, but lacked any structure), 2-2.5 hour nap times with zero flexibility to give her an option like a reading/quiet corner since she didn’t like napping for that long, and poor overall structure/curriculum consistency. The straw that broke the camels back for us was when I went to pick her up and as I stood at the door, I saw her teacher ASLEEP in the chair with her head tilted back against the wall. I was absolutely shocked and didn’t say anything to administration until the next day. I needed time to process. I was so shaken up and could not believe what I had seen. Marian, the director, said that she reviewed the surveillance and said that Ms. Sylvia was sitting in a blind spot and could not confirm that she was asleep, so instead, she chose to deny it, EVEN THOUGH Ms. Sylvia openly admitted it and said that she was resting her eyes due to “allergies.” I was appalled and beyond disappointed in the way that the school handled this atrocity and refused to fire her for her negligence. We could have reported it to DCF, but ultimately chose not to because we do have respect for the school overall and wish no harm to them as an institution. Since taking our child out and placing her in a more school like and structured environment, she has learned more there in 6 months (shapes, letters, colors, writing her name perfectly, recalling main ideas in a book, etc) than she did at All Saints in 3 years unfortunately. If you value true early learning and safety, I would not recommend All Saints.
