Positive Experience
As a third year parent of children that attended Make Way for Ducklings, I am continually impressed by the hard work and dedication of all the staff members. I’m very grateful that my children have had such a positive preschool experience.

Hard Work and Dedication
Thank you to all the staff for their hard work and dedication to making this program the best for our kids. Ms. Pat has made it easy for Will to transition and excited to learn. All of the staff care about all of the kids and it shows. Thankful to Miss Pat, Miss Ann, Miss Robin for help with Will’s migraines and accidents.
Danielle
Special Activities
I cannot say enough about all the special activities that take place at MWFD. All holidays are celebrated with fun activities and special treats that are made or brought in to celebrate. I applaud the school for the lack of technology and the emphasis on playing outside whenever possible. There is such a saturation of screens and it is a breath of fresh air to see the kids outside playing and being kids.The focus on kindness is wonderful as it can be a lost virtue with the rise in communicating with a device and not face to face. Raising kids to be kind humans is such an important thing and the more they can learn about how to be kind, the better off our world will be.Our family just loves all of the staff at MWFD and each staff member is so kind and loving. I could not think of a better environment for my child to be immersed in every day while learning and building her foundation of knowledge. Keep up the amazing work!
