We’re proud of our School Readiness program , and parents love it too! Here’s a selection of feedback we’ve received. If you’d like to provide feedback, please email us.
Ready! Set! School! is an amazing program that has allowed my daughter to continue developing her confidence and self-esteem including social and emotional wellbeing as they are given ample opportunity to play with other children and interact with their peers or work on their own. Lisa and the educators pay significant attention to fine motor skills, literacy and numeracy which is taught in an engaging and age appropriate way to the children.
My daughter absolutely loves attending Ready! Set! School! and this is a credit to Lisa and the educators as they have created a safe, nurturing and caring environment for the children. My daughter especially loves the art and craft which Lisa delivers in a creative way to ensure the children develop and build on their knowledge of literacy and numeracy. This truly is a great program that allows your child to transition from preschool into kindergarten and develop lifelong skills.

Ready Set School has been so good for Elissa and her fine motor skills have improved so much since beginning here. The care and attention that Lisa and her team put into each child shows through the good quality work that they do and the bright smiles on all the kids’ faces.
They really make sure that all the kids feel welcomed and are very thoughtful about providing really engaging activities for them. I would highly recommend Ready Set School to anyone with a child 3-5yo.
