I was really nervous for my son to start preschool as he had never been away from me. On his first day the teachers took him by hand and made him comfortable. I think I had a harder time than he did. He enjoyed every second at school with his teachers and friends and I couldn’t thank them enough for preparing him for kindergarten and giving him the confidence he needed. -Carol Stream Preschool Parent
