parent & student testimonials

  • kim & odeh, river north parents

    We are so incredibly happy with our experience at Green Bean. Jacob has grown and learned so much during his short time there. It is a warm and welcoming place for him and we are so appreciative of the way that the school has accommodated his needs so seamlessly. 

    We explored a lot of childcare options prior to enrolling Jacob and can confidently say that Green Bean offers something truly special. The staff is lovely, the facility is beautiful. The calm, playful environment is so inviting. Brightwheel is great, and the regular updates and photos are much appreciated. The kids are getting to do so many crafts and fun learning activities -- the care and thought that is put into their days is top-notch. We have no concerns to share.

    But we do want to highlight Ms. Samaiya. She is fantastic. Her genuine care for the children is obvious every day. We love the way that she engages the children in ways that leverage their innate interests with opportunities to learn new things. She is firm and consistent, which is so important for kids this age. Having her as Jacob's teacher has been a game-changer for his school readiness journey. 

    We feel so lucky to have found Green Bean!

    Our 3 month old could not be in a better place! The staff at Green Bean are so passionate and enthusiastic about child development and helping your little one flourish, which is refreshing in an industry that typically has high turnover. The care is excellent as is the communication with parents.
