Perpetual Help Day Nursery must be the best preschool ever! The staff is very tender, nurturing and caring to young children. The disciplinary methods are positive. They build children up not tear them down. It's amazing what they accomplish academically with the kids in very little time. I admire the strict curriculum, nurturing atmosphere, the cleanliness of the school. There is so much more to be said about Perpetual Help. It's simply a happy, healthy, and wholesome place for young children.
