What parents say

We adore SCUMP! Our daughter is on her second year. Both teachers have been incredible. The administrators are also amazing. We feel supported and like there is clear communication. We also have made amazing friends with the parents of other kids in our daughter’s class. Such a lovely place for our little ones to grow!!!

SCUMP is just the best - organized, communicative, safe and FUN! Great community, and our son is happy to go each and every day. We've been at 4 different preschools between our 3 kids in the past 10 years and SCUMP is hands down the best experience we've had. Thank you for everything you do!

Both of our kiddos attended SCUMP from 3 to 5 years old. I cannot say enough good things about the level of care they received from all of the wonderful teachers and staff at the preschool. The play based learning was so much fun for our kids and I appreciate how much time they get to spend active and outdoors while still learning all the social, emotional and academic skills needed to get them ready for…
