What parents say

I babysat for a parent and they said, "Teacher Bene loves my children."

I attended little fox preschool I believe from the ages 3-5… I am now 21 and still think about this school. It was amazing. The memories I have here is awesome, fulfilling, and inspiring!! I learned so much at a young age, not only academically but even socially! Teacher Benny is the best preschool teacher you could ever ask for. All the teachers here will treat your child like their own! Best decision my parents…

If you have an issue you should have gone directly to Teacher Bene. If you think $40 a day for drop in is steep you should call around. You would find that we are very reasonable. Your review has been reported. As none of what was stated as true.
