I have one child at Hatcher and an impending arrival on the waiting list; I wouldn't send my children anywhere else. The teachers are kind, fun, and very well-versed in children's development; the program encourages children to love learning and exploration and to be kind and supportive of each other. We moved our son here when he was two, after a terrible experience at another center, where he was so withdrawn his teacher of 3 months didn't even know he could talk. Within a week at Hatcher, he was talking non-stop, telling everyone everything. He is now 3 and can write his name, read...

I have 2 children at Hatcher and have been in the infant room through pre-k. The infant room is so great, teachers are warm and loving. Pre-k has a solid curriculum and my child was reading before he leaft for kindergarten. I highly reccommend Hatcher to anyone looking for a warm, friendly center where children come first!

Pros

+ wonderful staff, some have been there 30 years!

I would not suggest sending your child to Hatcher. They have managed to have a few good teachers, but they cant hold on to them. I have decided to withdraw my child after yet another teacher has left and yet another terrible teacher has remained. Teachers should be educated, friendly, and able to communicate honestly with a parent about a child's development. Hatcher employees as a whole do not fit this criteria.

Pros

+ cost

Cons

- cleanliness, teachers, everything else
