What Parents are Saying About Our Preschool and Daycare in Salem, OR!
I've seen tremendous growth through my two-year-old son. He is excited to go to school, always talks about his teachers and friends, and he often is playing and sharing and engaging with the activities going on in the classroom. One of the things that I do love is that he would come home and he would often encourage us to pray, and he even would lead prayer as well, talking about God and talking about the way that God loves us and loves him. And we just appreciate that intentionality is happening within the classroom.
What I would tell parents who are interested in Lion's Path Preschool™ Salem is that your child will receive intentional and incredible care and support through their own development.
I love the fact that right when we open the doors to get into the school, we are greeted with a smile and a friendly hello. It really starts off the day and the morning for all of us to say, "We are in a good spot," and these kids will continue to grow and develop and be engaged with the teachers, with the staff, and with their friends.
I appreciate too that we get updates every day of videos and photos of the children's activities that show how much fun they're having throughout the day. So I encourage you to check out Lion's Path Preschool™ Salem. Watch your child grow and develop through the intentional care and support through the staff and the program.
The staff is amazing. It’s obvious they all love what they do. It’s clear they care for and love our son as if he was their own. They send pictures and are very responsive throughout the day communicating what’s going on while he’s there, which has been such a relief for his father and myself. They genuinely celebrate milestones met and little victories like when he says a new word. Lion's Path Preschool™ Salem has been such a blessing we are so incredibly grateful.
We would especially like to thank Brandon Lemon for the kindness, encouragement, and genuine care he shows to the children and their families. Every interaction we’ve had with Brandon has been positive, and it is clear that he truly cares about creating a loving, supportive, and faith-filled environment for every child.
The entire staff has been welcoming, compassionate, and professional. Our preschooler has had wonderful experiences with both the teachers and the other children, and we have always felt that he was in a safe, nurturing place where he could learn, grow, and feel valued.
We are sincerely grateful for the care, dedication, and Christian values that Lion's Path Preschool™ Salem provides. We highly recommend this preschool to any family looking for a place where their child will be loved, encouraged, and given an excellent foundation for learning.
