What people are saying…

"My 6 year old was in the Junior Kindergarten program at The Children's Place, which was fabulous, never at any point, did I feel he was missing out. If anything I felt there was more one on one for him."

"As parents we attribute much of Megan's positive, confident and social spirit to The Children's Place. Travelling with an oxygen cylinder, Megan was able to continue her routine by attending TCP, a place where she is loved and cared for just like any other child."

− Kathy & Parham Momtahan

"The Children's Place has been a blessing for myself and my family. Cindy and Steph have helped me so much with my irregular schedule that I work at the airport. All of the staff are so helpful, friendly, and so patient with us. Kyandre has come so far in his development."
