AN EXCELLENT FACILITY There are not enough good words to say about Country Grove Children's Center (CGCC). They have   been

                especially helpful to my "special needs" as well as very shy Son. I never believed that my shy Son would be comfortable in a day care setting,

                but I was wrong. The patience exhibited for my special needs child went "above and beyond". I was happy with every aspect   of this center

                 from facility, to staff, to pricing, to flexibility, but most satisfaction with their sincere concern for their students.        Janice.

 

My children were was enrolled in Country Grove, when I   got laid off.  Diana allowed my children to continue "in program",

for these 8 weeks,  at which time I was able to secure a new position.  She  told me that payment for those 8 weeks was not necessary.

 

The facility is nice;  the staff is great;   the programs are great;   but it is Diana's  "day to day management",   and caring personality

that makes Country Grove Children's Center,  the best  Children's Center in Dutchess County.

Reference Accounts:

Diana clearly understands the difficulty in  "initial child / parent separation"  when a   child first attends the program.               Many of the  accolades  that  CGCC receives, refer just to this point.  We offer the flexibility in trying out a particular           program (free of charge)  prior to enrolling your children.    If deemed too early for this separation, a later attempt can             easily be made.
