“I am so proud to have had an amazing experience at Evergreen Day School when I was a kid in the 90s, and now to be sending my own toddler this year – it’s come full circle!  EDS is truly the best.  The teachers are warm and thoughtful, the entire professional team is caring and communicative, and the facility is top-notch.  We love the emphasis on creative, open-ended learning and play, the family and teacher connections in the classroom, and the kind, engaged community across the entire school.”

“Our son started at EDS when he was 2 and immediately loved the warm, caring environment at the school.  There are many wonderful things about EDS but hands down the teachers make the school.  They provide the caring, patient and child-centered environment that makes preschool feel like an extension of home for the kids.  We really love our experience at EDS and recommend it to other families.”

“Both of my children have thrived at Evergreen.  They love school and learning thanks to the fun and nurturing first school experience they received at Evergreen.  In a time when kindergarten is the new first grade, my daughter was exceptionally well-prepared to start kindergarten in Belmont with the strong foundation she had at EDS with her social-emotional, pre-reading, and writing skills.  There were also several EDS friends with her in kindergarten which made the elementary school transition that much easier.  Our family loves EDS and are excited that with the new space more families will be able to have the Evergreen experience – it is a phenomenal school and community.”

“How can we possibly begin to say thank you for the past 9 years!?  For 9 years we have had the security and joy that comes from knowing our children are seen, understood, valued and loved every day at school.  When we have been at difficult places or struggled with parenting in hard phases, Evergreen has been a lifeline.  I never could have known walking in with my spirited, bright (and sometimes challenging!) 3 yar old in 2012 how much this school and the teachers would come to mean to me.  On their good days, our children were celebrated and on their hard days, they were given empathy and support.  Evergreen has made us better parents, and truly, our hearts will be at Evergreen.  Thank you for everything.”

"I have never met a more loving and caring group of educators. My young daughter had never been away from her father, myself and grandmother, so it was a scary transition to daycare. However, every day I am greeted by Evergreen teachers with positivity and loving stories about my daughter. I am seeing my daughter begin to open up, laugh, smile, and play with the teachers and other students. Within two months of being at the school, she smiles widely as we walk into the school, and there are no more tears at drop-off.

At the end of each day, her teachers call me over from the playground to give her extra love before we leave. This school has truly changed my daughter’s life for the better, and we couldn’t be more grateful. I would highly recommend Evergreen Day School to any family!

“Both of my children attended Evergreen. It was a fantastic first school experience for them. The teachers are warm, welcoming, and attuned to the children's developmental needs. We made some lasting friendships among the other families. Highly recommend!” 

“As a parent of two and an education professional, I feel so fortunate to have found Evergreen.  My children have loved every day there, and I feel as much a part of the community as they do when we walk in the door.  The staff are outstanding and unfailingly kind, the activities are engaging and always changing, and the policies are flexible and accommodating.  I have traveled around the country visiting preschools for my job, and I can honestly say that Evergreen is a very special place.”

“What an absolute joy it has been to become part of the Evergreen family.  The professional, insightful, caring staff welcomed us as new, nervous parents with open arms and gentle guidance.  During our 3 years here, they have enthusiastically nurtured our daughter’s unique interests and needs – allowing her to emerge from a shy, slow-to-warm toddler into a strong and self-confident Pre-K’er.  We are so grateful for the individual attention, the sense of community and the emphasis on creativity, curiosity and compassion.  Thank you Evergreen, you have laid a remarkable foundation that will set our daughter well for many years to come.”

“I will never forget the lengths that the preschool teachers went to in order to keep our children engaged and happy during the COVID-19 quarantine.  It became evident very early on, that the leadership team at EDS was spearheading a program that quickly adapted to the unprecedented times.  Nothing but love for EDS now and for forever!”

“Our daughter started at EDS when she was 2 and finished her fourth and sadly, final year.  We build many close friendships with other families.  Our daughter has thrived in the play-based learning environment and was ready for elementary school.  The administrators are warm and caring and get to know all the children and their families.  The staff are so kind and engaged.  They build and modify their play-based curriculum in response to what the children are interested in and curious about.  They send updates and photos throughout the day and share more highlights at pick-up and drop-off.  Thank you EDS!”
