  We have known Gail and her team since our child was 4 months old. When we found out The Good Earth School was opening, it was a dream come true. Gail and the teachers have created a friendly, compassionate, and creative environment for the children to explore and develop new skills.
  
  Our daughter started in the Toddler program and has since transitioned to the Transitioning Twos class. During her time in the Toddler Program she was figuring out her newly found independence. We saw a shift in what she was interested in doing at home without us realizing. She wanted to help set the table, play a more active role in bath time, help her baby brother, and spend every second outside, etc! Looking back, these new interests were all due to activities and opportunities presented by TGES.
  
  Since joining the Transitioning Twos program, I've seen a major difference with how our daughter is playing both independently and with others. She's much more aware of her actions and how it relates to the larger group, helping prepare her for pre-school. I've been so impressed how through music the teachers are able to help the children problem solve or cope with feelings that they aren't yet able to articulate. What I love most is that they treat every experience as a learning opportunity for our kids.
  
  TGES continues to exceed our expectations and we are so lucky to be part of the community.

  Our almost-two year old has been at The Good Earth School since May 2018. We've been so excited to watch him grow and develop since he's been there. Gail and all the teachers are incredibly caring, and they consistently provide a huge range of activities for the kids and toddlers to explore. Similarly, the indoor/outdoor space is beautiful and really allows the kids to develop new skills and independence, within a safe and loving environment. We've also appreciated how willing they are to discuss and strategize the best way to support both our son and our family overall. We feel very lucky to have found this place.

  I have known Gail for over 5 years and we were part of her daycare for years until our son graduated.
  
  At 2, my son was exceptionally shy and also had some developmental delays, so when I interviewed care providers, I came with an arsenal of childhood developmental knowledge and even an infant developmental specialist who helped me in my search. I was so impressed interviewing Gail. I actually cried when I got back to the car as I knew, without a doubt, she would do an exceptional job caring for my child. And she has.
  
  I’ll never forget the moment when she told me, “it’s not enough that I love your son, my job is to also provide a safe and nurturing environment where your child grows”. I knew at that moment I had finally found the right place for him.
  
  At first, it was a difficult transition for my child. Every day he had separation anxiety. I also had to come pull him in and out of school three days each week for his various therapy sessions. Gail and her staff were so accommodating and supportive of our family and my son’s needs. Truly, Gail believes more in providing my child the tools he needs to succeed than in the school's schedule. She accepted us with wide arms open, providing a supportive and loving environment and making every decision in what is in the best interest of my child’s needs.
  
  I am so thankful for her compassion and love. Without a doubt she truly loved my child and was his biggest cheerleader. And now my son is a sweet, kind and prepared kindergartner who still runs into Gail's open arms whenever he sees her. We can't recommend her more highly. I not only found an amazing place for my child, I found an advocate, a supporter and a friend for myself.
