Our son has attended Northgate Whizz Kids for almost 3 years. We highly recommend the staff and the facility.
The school has provided a fertile environment for our son to grow physically, emotionally and mentally in a nurturing environment, and we are given plenty of one-on-one balanced feedback on a day to day basis on all aspects of his development.
There are plenty of opportunities to get involved in extracurricular activities and also weigh in on how activities are planned.
Children are taught to communicate effectively, for example, to express anger or anxiety in appropriate ways. Teachers work with parents when issues arise, to coordinate how things are handled at home as well as at the center. We appreciate these efforts to create create consistency in teaching children at this critical age.
As we prepare for kindergarten, we hope that our continuing school experiences are as positive as our time with Whizz Kids.
Pros: Effective, approachable staff, consistency, fun environment!
Cons: Tuition pricey, but in keeping w/other Seattle FT child care
