“I would highly recommend Miss Jena to anyone that is considering private daycare.  Our son was extremely fortunate to have Miss Jena as a teacher.  She was nothing short of amazingly caring, patient, creative, and always had innovative approaches to learning and keeping my wife and I updated throughout her time with him.  She was instrumental in teaching and sharing her wisdom with us to help our son through some of the stages that all parents endure when raising a toddler!  She is not only a tremendous preschool teacher but a wonderful person.”

"The Garden School is a wonderful preschool and Ms. Jena is an amazing teacher.  My daughter is pretty timid, but when I dropped her off on her first day, she was happy, left my side and went straight to work.  One main reason for that is because Ms. Jena has created an environment that is very safe, energetic, loving and nurturing, one where each child is made to feel special.  Ms. Jena works very hard to help each child's transition go well and to reassure us as parents that our children would be fine. Ms. Jena has developed a Preschool curriculum that helps prepare the children for Kindergarten.  I have seen many children in Ms. Jena’s care develop into confident and social little girls and boys who love going to school every morning and seeing their teachers and friends."

"I have spent many years working with Ms Jena in the past and would not trade the time we spent together for anything in the world. Every day was a new, exciting learning opportunity not only for the children but for me as well. Her charming persona and electric poise make any room bubble with creativity and learning. The best part is that Jena is so much fun we didn’t even realize we were learning half of the time! Days passed by a little too fast with Jena as our lead teacher. Her cheery, warm smile every morning always cleared up the teariest of eyes in minutes. If ever I was to have a child of my own I would make sure he or she spent as much time around Jena and her wonderful family as possible. They are one in a billion."

"My son was fortunate to have spent time with Miss Jena as a preschooler at age 3½. Miss Jena was never anything but enthusiastic, patient, caring, and nurturing as a preschool teacher. Her love of children is seen in her approach to teaching. She has amazing creative skills and energy. Miss Jena made learning fun and exciting. She is truly a wonderful preschool teacher."

"When my son started preschool a few years ago, he was barely 3 years old. Ms. Jena did a wonderful job by transitioning him from a toddler class to her preschool class. Through the years, Adrian acquired and improved his reading and writing skills thanks to Ms. Jena's thoroughly planned and organized teaching strategies. Not only was my son getting better at reading and writing, but he also became more confident and self-dependent during his time in Ms. Jena's class. Her wonderful ways of making children comfortable at school caused a great impact in my son's readiness and willingness when he finally started kindergarten. Most important of all, Adrian keeps great memories from his time at Ms. Jena's class and there's nothing more I could have ever asked for as a mom."

"If I could be a kid again, I'd make sure to tell my parents that I want Ms. Jena to be my teacher! I had the amazing opportunity to work with her in the past and I immediately enrolled my daughter in Ms. Jena's preschool class! I've never encountered anyone with such talent! My daughter woke up each morning talking about how excited she was to go to Ms. Jena's class! I woke up each morning knowing that I've made a valuable investment in my child's future!"

“Ms. Jena is an awesome, very genuine and caring well rounded teacher with LOTS of patience. She has wonderful teaching methods and is very hands on. She completely understands that all children learn differently and is willing to find a technique that will work for your child. Ms. Jena is very passionate about teaching and is able to provide an amazing curriculum and learning environment that will allow children to excel to their best potential. Your child will truly enjoy being in an environment that is fun, but you will enjoy knowing that along with the fun they are learning! Garden School will be amazing and your child will want to go every day! One warning is that you and your child will for sure fall in love with Ms. Jena and her amazingness!!”

“My son Benny had the amazing opportunity to learn and be nurtured by Ms. Young - the fact that she has now opened her own school is wonderful for the community and any child with the chance to grow and learn from Mrs. Young will be better prepared to enter school and blessed with a strong sense of self from all the personal attention.”

“Ms. Jena has a heart of gold. She always has a child’s best interest in mind. Her compassion, experience, and dedication are what make her an amazing teacher. I am also in the education field and would recommend her as an incredible part of your child’s education experience. She will prepare your child for their kindergarten adventure and most importantly, foster a love of learning! “
