– L. Silvers

“I love Noah’s Ark. They have taken great care of all 3 of my boys. Sometimes when I pick my toddler up he wants to stay!! It’s always a good feeling to know he actually enjoys being there. My boys have had some amazing teachers over the years that seem to truly love kids. Mrs. Pat is the best. I know that she will make sure our kiddos are well taken care of.”

-Krystal B.

“I can not say enough good things about this school! Ms.Pat the director is so caring and involved with all the kids. Our children have flourished while they have been there. We came from another facility that we had a very bad experience with, but that all changed once they started at Noah’s Ark! Our children love going everyday and the teachers are amazing! They have worked so hard especially during this pandemic to keep our children safe and continue their education!”

– Christina T.

“Both of my boys love going to “school” each day! To know my kids are loved and being taught so many things gives me great comfort while I’m working!! They truly teach here and the kids learn so much! My oldest (5-pre-k) is already doing math and so much more! I’m impressed! My youngest is learning so much as well!”

-Heather A.

“Noah’s Ark staff are like family to us. They have been taking care of my babies for the past 8 years. They truly care for the kids and families.”

-Jennifer K.
