"I would highly recommend The Children's House!! I have two children there, and it has been their happiest time, as well as mine. We have made friendships there, that will last a lifetime. Both started there at 18 months, and have progressed through the classes. The teachers are very professional, and caring. They are always there to listen to myself and my children. They comfort them, when they need it and make them laugh all the time. I am always amazed at all the wonderfull things that they do with the children. The songs, the crafts, the projects. They learn so much there. My kids love their teachers so much that when we would ask them "who is in your family?" They would respond with mommy, daddy, and Miss.... I read the previous review and was appalled to think that anyone could possibly say that about this school. It hurt me so much to think that someone could possibly be so cruel to write such utter lies about this school. My husband and I are proud to send our children to this school. It is completely untrue what this person wrote, I have never heard such horrible things, and I can only hope that this person's fabrication will not affect this school. There are so many children and parent's around the world that are indebted to this school for the wonderful experience that they have received there," remarked one parent with kids at The Children's House in Stavanger.
