I can't say enough about my son's positive experience at Joyful Noises.

I remember the very first day he arrived: the tears and sadness to leave Mommy, my anxiety about "letting him go". All of this was handled with the utmost respect and compassion that I as a parent could hope for in a preschool. His teachers and adjunct staff have been wonderful over the past three years providing a balance between social awareness/skill building and education (especially the Kindergarten curriculum), in a warm and nurturing environment. The values of self-respect, and the respect and kindness towards others are apparent in their everyday interactions. This was demonstrated to me at a birthday party that was mostly attended by Joyful children; the staff at the facility approached me and said that they had NEVER had a more respectful, kind group of 5 years, and that it was a pleasure to have them. Several of the mothers commented on how Joyful Noises had played a role in this positive behavior. As the end of the year fast approaches, I strongly believe that Joyful Noises has had an intricate part in fostering my child's overall readiness for Kindergarten. Thank you to all.

Fondly,

We were so fortunate to discover Joyful Noises eight years ago when our first child was 2 years old. We researched other programs, and selected Joyful Noises because of the nurturing environment, talented and dedicated staff, and strong Christian theme. Now, eight years later, our third and youngest child is enrolled, and we are finding the same positive experience we first encountered. We are truly grateful for having such a high caliber pre-school in our community, and regularly recommend it to other parents.

Over the past seven years, my 3 children have attended this wonderful school. The teachers are second to none! Talented, patient, creative and loving. The curriculum not only prepared my older children for kindergarten and beyond but provided a strong Christian foundation for them to build upon. The facilities are clean, spacious and colorful and the location allows for wonderful educational journeys around Topsfield!

My kids always looked forward to their day at Joyful Noises -- and loved to share the things they learned and made. I honestly cannot think of a single day that they did not want to go! Additionally, my older children (11 & 8 year olds) made lasting friendships that are still going strong today!

The staff at Joyful Noises works hard to create a loving, peaceful environment filled with wonderful opportunities to learn and grow, and both of my boys have thrived there. The quality of care and individual attention provided my children have been consistently very high. For me, it’s been like having an extended team of talented team of professionals paying close attention to my boys and alerting me to things we could do together to help them grow.

In September of 2000 we enrolled our oldest child (then almost 3 years old) in Joyful Noises. Our other two children were also eventually enrolled, with our youngest graduating from Pre-K in June of 2008. For our family it was a wonderful 8 years of being involved with a preschool that has such an incredible teaching staff. The teachers are not only highly qualified, but also teach with a caring spirit. Joyful Noises did a great job of preparing our children both socially and academically for kindergarten. We loved the nurturing environment of the school and all the ‘extras’ the school offered, like Spanish and various educational and fun field trips. We especially appreciated the Christian perspective that was present in their daily activities. Joyful Noises was like a second family to us for many years. I’m not sure who misses it more, our children or us.

Our 4 children have enjoyed a wonderful, enriching learning experience at Joyful Noises. Our children are well prepared for Kindergarten. The environment is nurturing and one that fosters a love of learning and of others. There is a sense of community between the teachers, staff, and parents that is quite supportive. Joyful is a great place for a child's early learning adventures!
