First off, it took me a while to get my daughter enrolled in this school and i was placed on a waitlist. I did eventually get her a spot in the school and i have been extremely happy ever since. The staff has been amazing as well as her teachers. The place is always clean and smells nice. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a safe and learning environment for their children.
Staff is caring, facility is clean and the kids do all kinds of activities to encourage learning without it seeming overly academic. Communicating with the teachers and front desk is easy and they go out of their way to say hello/goodbye to parents and kids alike. We are moving out of state or would have enjoyed many years here! They also have plenty of camps over the break elementary aged kids, which is super convenient when my older kiddo is on a break, but my office is not!
This is the best school ever! When we first came here, my son spoke no English at all. They were understanding and happy to give him the extra help he needed to catch up to the level of his classmates. They gave me tips and activities to do at home to help him learn quickly. His classmates, with encouragement from the staff, made him feel part of the group and helped with his English. Hes doing great. I am very grateful!
I love this academy. They take excellent care of my kid. They keep me informed of his progress and provide excellent service. The staff is courteous and attentive to the needs of the child. English is the second language for my son and he has made enormous progress in this area.
Great school ! Ms. Genesis is phenomenal !
My child graduated from fantasy station academy and she is now in advanced placement classes at her elementary school and doing great everyday! I am so thankful to them for everything they did to prepare my child for the school system, not just academically but as a unique and individual person. I love them and cant recommend them enough!
I absolutely LOVE THIS SCHOOL!!!!!! My daughter has been attending this school for 3 years and the experience thus far is beyond fantastic. The teachers and Staff are very professional, caring, and loving! Ms. Yanina and Ms. Vanessa are awesome teachers who have a passion for educating and making the curriculum, and learning very fun for the children. Needless to say, We love Fantasy Station Academy, and we HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SCHOOL!!!!!!
My child has attended this school for a couple of years now and I couldnt be happier. Its an amazing school and everything is always clean and organized. They really go the extra mile to make learning fun for the kids. The entire building is always decorated for the season or theme, they have helpful resources for parents on just about every subject and you can tell these teachers really know what theyre talking about when it comes to education and doing whats best for the kids. Theyve helped me with everything from potty training techniques to activities for reinforcing the material at home. I cant thank them enough for all they do!
Wonderful school. Very attentive to kids needs. Very clean. I always see someone cleaning. I really liked the way they teach the kids with hands-on activities rather than worksheets and endless paperwork.
This school is a wonderful place to bring your children. The staff is wonderful and well organized for being a new school. My daughter enjoys going to school each day. They have so many different ways of learning, so the children do not get bored. There are also different activities that keep the parents involved. I would recommend this school to everyone.
This preschool is GREAT ! They really prepare the children for the next step in their education. The teachers are so caring and kind. My child excelled and is now in advanced placement. I wish I could take them with us to our elementary!
I loved this preschool for my son. They were kind to my child. He seem to be very fond of the staff. One thing that really touched me was his teacher Ms Emily (sorry if I spelled it wrong) really showed that she cared about my child. That means a lot to a parent. I felt it was a safe environment. My child learned so much! They prepared him well for Kindergarten. The owner and director was awesome and willing to help also. I wish I had found them sooner. I had to move my child from 4 different schools. I felt these ladies had patience and love for children.
2. I dont think a lot of people realize how much these guys really do for the kids and for their families. The last school I was at didnt have HALF of the activities and events that these guys do and their tuition prices were higher. The value you get out of the tuition here is crazy. Theyre always hosting events and activities FOR FREE when other schools would require you to pay in order to participate. I also like the way they teach. I may not fully understand the whole Reggio thing but I can tell it has made a difference in my childs learning. The teachers may have heavy accents but that doesnt mean they dont know what theyre talking about. Theyre knowledgeable and kind and always ready to help you with anything. To me, thats more important then whether or not they speak perfect English. Its not like a 5 year old needs to learn advanced grammar anyways!
So incredibly happy to have found this school!! My daughter absolutely loves it here. And all the extra time and effort the teachers and staff put into EVERY project, play, holiday- is so amazing. They truly go above and beyond at every turn. It is so nice to have every staff member know your child and greet them by name- it is so welcoming. I am always bragging about this school!!
This is the best place ever my 4 year old is really happy good atention good teachers i recomend this place ever ...
My son has only been there for a short time, but he comes home singing and telling me all about his day. I get a report of how his day was daily and I could not ask for better 3 year old teachers for him. They are all so loving and I am glad I found this place. I am glad they have uniform shirts for now he will not ruin his other clothes. He puts up a fight in the mornings when I drop him off ( he is a mamas boy), but the morning teacher is right there to calm him down and talk to him to make sure he knows I will be back.
My daughter as been attending that daycare since she was 1 years old and I can say I have not wasted a dollar. Now she is 3 years old and the teachers there have taught her almost everything. Every day she comes home she surprises me with something new whether its her saying her name or my name she tend to grasp everything. Now with the potty training one week and she was out of pull ups for good. ... I just wanted to say THANK YOU. ...
This school is amazing! My son loves going to school each day, I have to convince him to leave :).The interesting projects they work on each week, special events several times a year and the encouragement of parental involvement makes this school stand out from the rest. My son has grown so much in the time he has been here due to their attentiveness, creative curriculum and nurturing environment. I leave him in their capable hands each day know he is safe and happy. A special thanks to the teachers of Nido 2! You both are amazing!
The school is clean, presentable, and the teachers are wonderful. My son is 4 years old and has special needs, his been through 3 preschools with them always kicking him out. till we found fantasy station. And they are wonderful to my son, now both my kids attend the school and we love them dearly. I recommend this school with flying colors.
Awesome school!!! Fantasy station is always clean and nice. I feel very comfortable knowing my kids are learning. Great teachers and staffs. Materials and equipment are a plus. I highly recommend this school. No place like home :) :)
As an educator, it was very important to me to find a preschool for my son that had a solid curriculum which both academics were introduced and social skills were taught. I cant speak highly enough of FSA. Since starting at this school, my sons vocabulary and social skills have grown immensely and he exudes a positive attitude for learning new things. His teachers are loving and caring, to the point that he asks for them even on weekends! The school is incredibly clean and organized and has various activities and parent nights to promote the impact that family and parents have on a childs education. I look forward to watching my son grow throughout his time at this wonderful school!
Both of my little ones ( age 5 and age 3)go here and have always loved going to school. The summer program is phenomenal each week they had a cooking activity, water play, and some character who came to visit. Every day I get a report telling me whats happened with my children from eating, to sleep habits and behavior. The daily/weekly activities and foods are clearly organized and followed. My children learn so much and have such a great time. I encourage anyone who has ever had a bad child care experience to find your way here you will be glad that you did and they will put your mind at ease.
Fantasy Station Academy is a wonderful school. My kids have been there for over 3 years and they are extremely happy. The level of Education is amazing. My kids have learned so much in such little time. I highly recommend this school. Happy Mom!!
Great school. Would highly recommend. Very clean; attentive teachers, great curriculum.
My son attends this school and we love it! He is enrolled in the VPK program and is engaged in an environment in which kids experience an enthusiasm for learning and accomplish successes. He is provided with ample opportunities to grow socially, physically, emotionally, intellectually, and creatively. The staff is very friendly to parents and kids. The facility is extremely clean, child centered, and welcoming. L.Williams
I love this school. Its facilities are adapted to the the educational innovations. His staff prepared this pedagogically and brings the qualities that one wishes for your child in the first stage of his life. I am very happy that my grandchildren can develop intellectually, physically and emotionally in Fantasy Station Academy.
This is a great school! The staff is very nice and wonderful with the children. I have not had any problems. My daughter is in the VPK program and she is learning so much. The teachers have a great approach.
My nephew attends this school and he absolutely loves it! I can tell the teachers and staff make their students feel comfortable to be around other kids and have a good time learning. The teachers are kind and very helpful as well. The school is in a good environment and is always clean condition.
The director is rude and unprofessional. If you have an issue she does not handle it correctly. The director and her staff at the school appear nice but are not trained well to handle issues that you may have with your child or with a staff. The staff are mostly if not all Spanish although there is a mixture of children at the school. When you are being spoken to, there is no effort to learn the parents names and you will always be addressed as mommy and daddy. My mother in law came to pick my child up a couple of times and the first time they didnt know who she was even though she told them her name and my childs name, there were so confused when she asked them what class she was in. My mother in laws name was on the application for pickup.
I would recommend this place to anyone. First of all; it just opened so everything is brand new which is nice for a germaphob like me. Secondly; their other location has been open for over a decade, so you know that they know what they are doing. They have an awesome approach to teach your children and are very attentive.
I love Fantasy Station Academy and so does my little one. Its always clean, well decorated, and friendly. The teachers show lots of love to the kids and teach them good manners. My little one (2yr old) comes home singing songs shes learned and she has also learned how to clean up after herself. We finally found a good daycare, school and second home for my little one.
I love this school. The staff is loving and welcoming. School has a great structure for the kids to learn. I recommend this school to everyone.
This school is wonderful! I highly recommend it. Its very well-equipped for all activities and the most important part is that the children are happy and the teachers are awesome!!!
Parents please do not send your child here. The director & staff are very unprofessional. I honestly dont know why this school is still in business. Please dont be fooled by the image they put on when you first stop by . Find another school, dont take your innocent baby here
WOW !! The school its really great! . The classrooms, materials, technology equipment everywhere and the ateliers make this school unique to give the children the best opportunity to grow and learn !! .Im very happy to have my grandson here, having great experiences ...and the best for me is be part of the staff as a VPK teacher!
I am very happy with the school.Clean and neat.Knowledgeable and friendly staff.Great value for the price
Never though my kid would like to be anywhere but home, i was wrong. Thanks to the love of the teachers he is so happy to be there that i couldnt believe it at first. Wonderful place.
Very clean, safe and friendly environment. I would recommend this Academy to anyone looking for a great place to send their children.
This preschool is by far the best and recently remodeled in margate. They really take great care and teach your children
This school is fantastic! My 7 year old twins have attended VPK, Kindergarten and are now in first grade. This is my 3 year olds second year. Our family has great relationships with the teachers and Directors, the kids look forward to school and are excited about learning. They benefit greatly from the individualized attention and well rounded curriculum. Very clean and innovative/interactive environment. Overall our family is very pleased and appreciative of our experience with FSA.
Teachers are very knowledgeable and sweet to students! I would recommend this pre school to anyone in the area.
This school is great!! I would highly recommend. I am very impressed with the teaching technique of Ms. Marisela (VPK Class). In the short time of just two months since my daughter started attending Fantasy Station, she has shown tremendous improvement in her learning. This is so refreshing after several attempts of trying to find a good school. Plus, being a germaphobic I love the fact that the school is clean, organized and the teachers take pride in keeping the classrooms tidy. Wonderful environment!!
Fantasy Academy is a school I trust I have seen so much progress with my daughter . Its nice to see these teachers do thier best to educated my child from her ABCs to her 123s . I recommed you guys to bring your child to this school it is worth it .
I read all these reviews before signing up my children for school ( ages 3&4) went to the school and felt that it was a very diverse environment for my children. We just moved down from NY and thats what we wanted a safe, diverse environment for our most prized possessions. Its been three weeks since school started and my four year old in Ms. maricella class was having a great experience, while my three year old was having the worst experience of her life. Both of the girls have been in school since they were 18 months old. The three year old was in Ms. Rebeccas class and apparently children were harassing her because she was different mind you the class is diverse with children of all backgrounds. She was hit by a child numerous times and called a b*t** at the age of three!!!! She told her older sister (four years old who then told us). We contacted the administration of the school if the situation and had informed them that Wednesday we were upset and what had happened. We also informed them that our child did not want to come back and we were taking both girls out. They in turn said that oh that is so sad, Im so sorry. By Friday there was no phone call no measures taken on their part to resolve the situation bascially it was swept under the rug. We as parents work hard to put our children in a safe nurturing environment to care for them while we are at work. I showed up to give a presentation on my daughters last day of school at hertiage night to inform parents of what had happened and to bring awareness to the negligence of the administration of the school because parents need to know what happens in a school that they send their children to. In result with my children and husband in presence began to physicaly remove me and in front of other children and parents in what was supposed to be a peaceful awareness presentation . And I was told that they didnt want a parent like me in their school. A parent that cares about the wellbeing and safety of their child? A parent that cares about how the administration handles incidents that may occur? A parent that believes other parents should know what happens in their childs school? Of course they wouldnt want that, because then if my child didnt let her sister know what was going on we wouldve never known and who knows what it would have escalated to. I was also told that I didnt do my part, I thought my part was telling them? To top it all off the teacher ms.rebecca for the three weeks my child was in her class spelled her name wrong every single day until I finally pointed it out she then told me oh I didnt realize. So basically my child has been seeing the wrong spelling of her name although its on all of the official documents of the school, these are the type of respones I recieved from the administration and their teachers. Parents be aware and pay attention to your children when they come home for school, look at their attitudes and ask questions in different ways. No child at the tender ages of 3 and 4 should ever experience that. I am beyond hurt that I wasnt their to protect my child but I pay money to have the teachers at least know who my child is and be aware of how they are treated. I am not their to protect them they are in the care of others at Fantasy Station Academy. Yes, you dont want a parent like me in your school because I will pay attention to how my children are cared for and what environment they are in and what measures you take when incidents occur and make others aware. If this had happened to any other child I would want to know because my child is right there with yours. Your distress is my distress when it comes to children and school experience.
Let me just tell you... I live directly behind this school. All day long, all I can hear is a spanish woman YELLING at these poor children, its very upsetting. Seeing all of these positive reviews is horrible...
Outstanding child care facility! Very clean and the staff are very friendly.
EXTREMELY RUDE !!! AND MONEY HUNGRY OWNERS !!! TRY TO HIT YOU WITH RIDICULOUS LATE FEES !!! NO ONE THERE SPEAKS ENGLISH AND CAN TELL THEYRE ALL UNEDUCATED !! WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS DAYCARE TO ANYONE
Great experience! 5 stars!
