About

At Adat Reyim Preschool, we see each child as an individual with their own talents and one-of-a-kind needs. We keep our classes small and our teaching ratio high so that each child gets the attention and care they deserve. We believe that a preschool should feel like home and that the preschool community should feel like family. If this sounds like the right environment for your child and your family, we invite you to schedule a visit and playdate to experience what makes Adat Reyim so special. We know that children learn best through hands-on, experiential learning that supports each their preferred learning style. Our teachers and enrichment specialists create a warm, open environment where students feel safe enough to ask questions, explore and seek answers.
Note from CareLuLu: Please note this child care program has a License-Exempt status, it is not State Licensed. States have different licensing regulations, but in general, not all child care programs are required to have a license. License-exempt facilities can operate legally without a license, and have typically received permission to do so (this is different from a child care provider who is legally required to have a license but does not have one). License-exempt programs (such as Religiously exempt facilities or Certified preschools) are typically exempt from some of the mandatory State license requirements.
Disclaimer: the licensing status was checked when this listing was created. We do our best to keep information up-to-date, but cannot guarantee that it is. You should verify the license/permit/registration status before enrolling in any child care program.

Adat Reyim was such a wonderful place for my daughter to go to preschool! It's like a big family - everyone is so warm and caring and helpful. We felt at home there right away. And I loved the level of communication we received - we always knew what was coming up and when. I would highly recommend it. If we hadn't moved out of the area, I would definitely be sending my son there as well.

Adat Reyim Preschool & Camp is a fantastic program for children 24 months through Pre-K. It runs from 9:30-1:30 with after care options for older children. There is also a transitional program that runs from Sept-Dec for children turning 24 months in the Spring. I have visited many local programs and the facility is beautiful, clean, and safe. The teachers are all top-notch and clearly care a lot of the children and take pride in their work. I was especially drawn to the Reggio Emilia approach that the preschool follows, which places emphasis on teaching children through play-based activities. I also love that it is a small program and each class has a primary teacher and an assistant. The director (Therese Fournier) is phenomenal and so is the camp director (Stacey Coffee). Most importantly, my daughter has always loved going to school and has learned so much.

Before my child attended Adat Reyim he'd never had a babysitter let a lone go to preschool. Naturally we were nervous. Yet shortly after we walked into the school, we were warmly greeted by some the mostly lovely people we've ever met. Our son's first day was a success and tear-free. Three years later we were full of tears on his last day of pre-k, sad he wouldn't be able to attend in the fall as he is on his way to kindergarten. I could go on and on about how much I loved the staff. Or about how much I loved the science experiments. Or about how much I learned from his art teacher and the featured artist of the week. Or how safe I felt knowing his teachers were educated professionals and mothers giving back to their community through teaching. Or even how much I loved the after school enrichment. But my son's enthusiasm and love for this school said it all. My youngest child isn't old enough to attend, but when he is we will be back for sure.

We love Adat Reyim! We are fairly new to the area and have only been attending for about 6 months, but we have felt at home from Day 1. The staff and community are very warm and welcoming and we have a great group of parents. My daughter has enjoyed going every day and is always excited to tell me everything she did. The STEAM lab and extracurricular activities enhance the already fabulous program. I wish all of my children could have gone here and recommend it to everyone I meet.

Both of my children (ages 3 and 5) attend Adat Reyim Preschool. We started coming here in 2013 and have seen the school grow tremendously! There is now a STEAM (science, technology, engineering and math) lab with a STEAM specialist where the children do amazing projects and learn so much. There are specialized art classes and music/movement classes with amazing teachers as well . The small class sizes and overall warm community feel make this school a special place. We love the Reggio play based approach to learning as the evidence is indicating that this is best practice. Adat Reyim is truly unique and wonderful!
