Aquinas Early Childhood Center

My daughter has been here for over a year from the infant room and now waddler room. The teachers accommodate to each child's needs and are all very caring. Her current teachers are always very open and informative about how she did that day. I'm also glad my daughter is learn some Christian Catholic practices, like having the nativity in the front desk during Christmas season and receiving the ashes on her forehead on Ash Wednesday. It's a good environment overall.

Best decision I ever made to put my children in this Early Childhood Center.

I grew up in this church, my family has been parishioners at St. Thomas Aquinas for over 27 years.

There are growing pains, but it is expected with a growing church.

The Staff at AECC, have had their growing pains as well, but with my experience the Past Director & current Director Chestin, are both amazing, compassionate person, approachable & understanding individual. Job Well Done.

My eldest child came to AECC from age 2 1/2 to 4/5 years old. This school prepared him for Kindergarten & he adjusted well. Now he is in First Grade & an Honor Roll Student. My youngest son started at a 1 1/2 & doing well & learning. Now he is 2 1/2 & loves this place.

All the teachers & staff are all loving & compassionate about the advancement & learning of each individual child enrolled. Best decision me & my husband made with where to bring our children for child care & education.

My sister recommended this school to me over a year ago. I moved my (at the time) 3 year old here. Absolutely fell in love. My family and I had struggled with a school that would actually teach our daughter. My now 4.5 year old is getting ready for Kindergarten in the fall. She comes home telling me about math, science, reading, what all the holidays mean, and so much more. Since then, I have had another child and placed her in the infant room- let me tell you... Ms. Helen is the best infant teacher I have ever come across. All of the teachers look after and care for my children in a way I have never experienced at a school. Ms. Rebecca and Mr. Paul have exceeded my expectations in making my family and myself completely comfortable and satisfied here. I can go to either of them with any concerns I have. Both make me feel heard and the situation gets resolved. Best of all- I love the tadpoles the teachers send out. This school does not have camera streaming in the class rooms, but I receive videos and pictures of my children's accomplishments while I am at work. I would recommend this school to anyone.

We have been with Aquinas Early Childhood Center now for over 3 years now and have been very happy with our experience. Our oldest daughter Lily was comfortable right away and was prepared very well by Ms. Sue for her move into Kindergarten. She enjoys her teacher Mr. Lewis for the after school program and the summer program for the school age kids. Our son Jack came here as an infant and has done very well over the last 3+ years. His favorite teacher is Ms. La Courtney (Bear). Sometimes he gets upset with us because we "pick him up too early!" As with any environment, things are not always perfect. However, Ms. Rebecca, the director of the facility and Mr. Paul, the assistant director have always been willing to sit down and discuss any issues. I feel that the door is always open and they are willing to speak with us and address our concerns. I know how hard it is to wrangle just 2 kids so I appreciate what they accomplish with so many. If you are looking for school for your child I would recommend that you speak with Rebecca Gotting and visit AECC. Keep up the good work, we are very happy!
