We really love HW, because our daughter does. She feels seen, safe and cared for and she is learning a ton. Thank you!!

This program has taken quality to the next level - they're constantly updating the building and materials, investing in quality trainings such as Seed & Sew and Carrie Becker, and shows a commitment to the children and families in their care.

Our daughter is always excited to go to school! The toddler2 teachers create a safe, engaging and fun environment for all the kids in the class. A credit to the teachers for navigating the extra challenges the pandemic has thrown at them and not let it impact the level of teaching and compassion they show the students.

We had had Allie for my son’s pre-k year and she is wonderful! Kind, caring, and compassionate. Teaches my son not just educational learning but also teaches him coping skills. Colin’s classroom is next door to Allie’s and my son just loves him he is also kind, caring, and compassionate and some hard drop off mornings the only way to get my son to cooperate into staying at school is a talk and a hug from Colin. I can’t say enough good things about Heartworks and highly recommend.

We have been very fortunate to have our boys go to Heartworks in Burlington. We have been more than pleased with our experience. All teachers are exceptional. We are very fortunate to have Colin Wyler as my son’s pre-k teacher. He is absolutely phenomenal. My kids look forward to going to Heartworks every morning! We absolutely love all the teachers including Rowan, Josie, Luke and Susan. Director of Heartworks Burlington, Ilia Gilligan is so wonderful and easy to get along with which makes the entire experience so much better!

We recently joined the Heartworks community and have been very happy with both the administration and our son's teacher Katelyn. Our son has struggled with the transition to a new school and Katelyn, Susan (Asst Director), and Ilia (Director) have engaged with us regularly on strategies to help ease the transition. Katelyn has created a space for the class that is peaceful, fun, and engaging for the children. Our son regularly comes home bragging about what he did for his "enrichment activity" that day. I love that Katelyn has a curriculum that she is implementing in the classroom (and sharing with the parents via a monthly newsletter). Last month our son was making all kinds of homemade "machines" at home based on what he was learning at school about simple machines. The other day he was telling me about igneous and sedimentary rocks based on this month's afternoon theme of landforms and geology. Some other highlights of our time at Heartworks so far have been lots of outside time on the playground and having picnics. watching chicks hatch, and weekly music class. We are very pleased with our experience at Heartworks and would highly recommend the program!

My daughter has shown amazing growth both academically and socially during her years at Heartworks. It is heartwarming to see the love each teacher has for the children. Colin has such a special bond with the kids and has truly opened their eyes to the beautiful world around them, showing them the beauty of Mother Nature. The kids get outside every day it is possible to enjoy the fresh air and to learn about our planet. From scissor skills to hatching baby chicks, children receive an amazing, well rounded education there!
