“Buttonwood Preschool is fantastic. The teachers loved and cared for my precious children as if they were their own. Clean, bright and big classrooms. Great curriculum with music, movement, art, outside every day. My daughters' Kindergarten teacher said she knew the children in her class that came from Buttonwood, they were well prepared and happy. Family owned and operated. Highly recommended.”  Grayc100


"The teacher’s extensive training and experience are evident - the children are so engaged that the classes are always calm and under control without the teachers having to raise their voices. Our oldest child loves their emphasis on art and our youngest child is so excited that she'll be starting there soon as well."   Michele

“Two years ago we searched for the perfect preschool for our daughters and we observed numerous schools before visiting Buttonwood.  We left many visitations crying with the thought of leaving our three and four year old with strangers.  However, minutes after visiting Buttonwood, we knew your school was the place we wanted our children to spend their time.  Thank you for your talent at selecting a caring and talented staff and for caring for the children as deeply as you do.”  The S.
