The Vine Preschool at St James in Alexandria, VA

The Vine Preschool has been my daughter’s safe haven and has eased my mama heart in our transition to daycare. Knowing that she is safe, loved, and nurtured by the teachers and director has given me peace of mind. We are so incredibly lucky to have found them. As a professional who works with kids in childcare settings the Vine Preschool has exceeded my expectations with love, kindness, and professionalism.

We are so thankful and blessed to find this location. The director, Ms. Kim is extremely responsive and the staff treats each child as if they were their own. Every teacher knows each kids name even if they are not in their class and they always give a warm greeting. We also appreciate the meals offered. It makes our lives so much easier. The academic activities are also great for child development. Finally, the app for getting updates throughout provides such peace of mind especially for infants. We initially were waitlisted for another school and when we were finally offered a spot, we knew there was no way we were changing. We have been here over two years and most certainly would recommend it.

My daughter has been going to The Vine Preschool for six months and I couldn't be happier! She loves going to school everyday! The staff is very professional and incredibly dedicated. As a result, my daughter continues to develop socially and academically. The Vine Preschool provides a safe, structured, and nurturing learning environment. The teachers keep me updated regularly and have made my experience incredibly positive! They offer academic rigor and challenge my daughter to go above and beyond. As an educator myself this is something I look for. We are so happy to be a part of The Vine Preschool family.

This PreSchool is awesome! They have an amazing group of providers. The admin staff is knowledgeable, patient & bilingual. There is a great multicultural vibe amongst the staff & children. The fee is comparable to the other schools in the neighborhood. However, this location operates 0600-1800. So that was the extra bonus for my family & work schedule.

I can't even begin to describe how thankful my husband and I are for The Vine Preschool. We are pretty new to Virginia and have had a few horrible experiences with some local child care providers (both home care and centers). We currently live in Arlington and gladly make a minimum 30 minute drive (one way) to get to The Vine Preschool. I love how Kim and her staff put you at ease! The last thing you want is to be at work worrying about your children. My husband and I were able to meet with Kim and observe her "classroom" (it really is a wonderful learning environment) before we enrolled our son. As you can imagine we were a little apprehensive, but our initial visit put us at ease. We received pictures and videos of our son's first day and continue to get pictures on a regular basis. We recently had another baby that now attends, and I have to say that it seems as though Kim and her team personally cater to each and every child, giving them all the love and attention they need. My son was a bit of an introvert when he first started, he is now incredibly comfortable and loves to participate in all of the activities. I really appreciate the structure and curriculum that is provided. Kim is able to teach each child at their own pace according to their level. She is very knowledgeable and I often ask for her advice not only as a provider but as a parent. I know that once its time for both of my children to move on to public school they will be more than ready!! Completely Satisfied!!
