Testimonials

Although my little boy can’t express it in words yet, I can tell by the way he greets his teachers with open arms and a big smile each morning that he is happy and well cared for at Juniors. Thank you to the great teachers for putting a working mom’s mind at ease, and thank you to Insaf for the energy and creativity you contribute to make Juniors the nurturing and educational place that it is. Finally, thank you for the open-door policy; you are always there to hear our comments and concerns. Great work!

My wife and I would like to thank all staff members and management of Juniors for their wonderful care of our child GIYA (and all the others). They are having so much fun, and this is what makes us overjoyed. Thank you Juniors.

Errol – dad to Giya

I am sure Zoyah will miss her ”small” school, once she starts ” Big School”. Thanks to all the management and staff for making her feel like she is at her ”other” home. (Many weekends when she gets up she says I want to go to ”my school”).
