What Our Families Say

I am very grateful for this daycare. They have been nothing but a blessing to me. My daughter switched to this daycare because we had a bad experience at another daycare and it’s been nothing but a good experience she always comes home and says she had a good day at daycare. She adores her teacher Mrs. Avery and Mrs. Amy. I’m just glad I found them I have a newborn now and I wish they had a program for newborns because I really do trust them with my kids.

– Jasmine

I can’t say enough good things about Warwick River Christian. The teachers are phenomenal – so caring, dedicated and passionate about nurturing the kids’ growth. They create a warm and welcoming environment that makes learning fun. We feel so fortunate to be part of this amazing school community!

Highly recommend!

– Sarah

I couldn’t trust this staff and school more with my child. My son flourished and came out testing into gifted after the hands on approach and smaller classroom setting he had here at Warwick River Christian. The teacher’s and staff here truly are dedicated to education and treating their students like their own. Highly recommend sending your child here.

– Briana

My daughter is in the learning center and she loves it! We were nervous initially as this is the first time she’s been without family watching her. The staff is so kind and have made her (and us) feel so comfortable. They are always available and happy to talk to us whenever we have any questions. Her teachers are so sweet to her, I highly recommend Warwick River!

– Morgan

As a former student of WRCS, I was already familiar with the school and this is the only place i have been comfortable sending my children. I love the communication between school and family, my children are so advanced for their age, and i love the flexibility of the program.

– Sasha

Two of our four children have attended the Learning Center with our youngest currently with the Pink group. We are extremely grateful to the wonderful staff who take such great care of all the children. It is comforting knowing our child is in a loving environment while they are away from us! Thank you for all you do!

– Jerrod and Phyllis Hurr

WRC has been a huge blessing to our family. Our son started here in the learning center and has attended each year. He has grown leaps and bounds and his sense of self confidence has grown because of the support he has received from all of the staff. I highly recommend WRC for childcare and primary school.
