"Just wanted to thank you for the Citibabes in Parrot Cay. Despite our weather delays, the timing was perfect. We hadn't been since Jade was 3 months and the email from you guys was just a good reason to plan our much-needed trip. Because of our delay getting there, Jade only did a one day camp, but she really enjoyed it. She takes a while to warm up to new people, and she tends to not be so taken by pirates and stuff, but Aaron and Sararose made it a lot of fun. She came back pretending to be a 'kitty pirate' and the rest of the day was spent with references to her time with them. (Aaron, you made a big impression.)" - Angelique L.

"Both my husband and I work full time and therefore felt it was very important for our two children to have a safe place to play with other kids, where they would learn and have fun. Citibabes accomplishes all of this and more! The staff is friendly, the classes are educational, the gym is clean and our kids begs to go back day after day!" - Kate Deorge

"The opportunity that Citibabes affords us extend way beyond a place to take the kids. The friendships and educational experience and overall peace of mind that we have in knowing our sons are happy and cared for while growing their minds and bodies is priceless. The Citibabes staff has truly become an extension of our family." - Liz Pokora-Sadowsky

"CitiSchool was one of the best decisions that we made for our son. The teachers are creative, inspired and responsive. Peter got so much out of the interesting and stimulating teaching and projects. We were more than thrilled with the experience and can't wait to enroll our younger son!!" - Laura M.

"Because our daughter had such a wonderful first year in CitiSchool 2s, it gave us comfort knowing that as a brand new Big Sister, she would be returning to CitiSchool for the 3s. The transition was seamless. However, this year brought so much more than just comfort and security. The teachers created and executed a phenomenal 3s program: rich in social skills, diversity, art, music, cooking, science and music. We were so impressed with the Passport Project, Artist Studies, and emphasis on charity during the holidays." - Tami S.

"Liem loves his CitiSchool classes. The structure of each class is really great for him while the variety within each class is such great exposure to different ideas. Last year in CitiSchool Jr., I was really impressed with his head teacher, Laura. It really felt to me that she was trying hard to think of things specific to him in order to draw him out and make him more comfortable in class. Each class she would try something new, hoping to engage him in the learning process. Towards the second half of the semester he would get very excited about going to see Miss Laura. Even today when you ask him about what he's going to do in school, he says, Miss Laura! That kind of personal attention is invaluable to us and makes us very happy with our whole CitiSchool experience." - Yen H.

"We LOVE CitiSchool! Go to a thesaurus, look up the word love, and you will read every word that describes CitiSchool and how my son responded to the creatively challenging environment." - Tatyanna W.

"CitiSchool is absolutely outstanding. I recommend it without hesitation." - Allegra B.

"The good news is these are positive words as Citischool Jr ends and the summer months begin. Ezra's experience in Citischool Jr's was fantastic! Howard and I were in awe with each passing week at Ezra's socialization, verbal skill development and overall confidence. Aaron, we believe, is the main reason Ezra is light-years ahead of his peers participating in other nursery programs throughout the city. Next year, Ezra will be entering the 3's program at Claremont Prep (Walter's school). During the interview process, the admissions team were blown-away with Ezra's character and personality. The fact that he was still an early 2 year old during the time of admissions surprised everyone more. Howard and I greatly attribute Ezra's ability to focus and concentrate, participate in activities and gently interact with other children in the class and camp setting to Aaron directly. Aaron's teaching style and patience is the perfect combination of allowing "kids to be kids" while introducing them to the structure that is required in a classroom setting. We feel so lucky that Ezra had the opportunity to be taught by such an incredibly special person. Congratulations to you and Citibabes on having a wonderful nursery/pre-school program taught by someone we believe to be a premiere educator within this age-level! " - Liz Pokora-Sadowsky

"As a working mother I am not sure how we could have raised our family of 3 without Citibabes. It is such a wonderful facility with so many unique programs to offer. The moment you walk into Citibabes the staff greet you and your family - always offering to share a funny story about your children. They celebrate each child's individuality and have an amazing ability to recognize their budding talent. I dread the day our family outgrow their programs and have to move on - my hope is that they eventually offer college courses!" - Jenne Lombardo

"We are already missing Citischool too!! My girls loved their time with you and the teachers!! On the last day of school, I remember you saying that our children may not always remember you (the teachers) but that you would always remember our children. I disagree, I am certain that Corinne and Rylan will always remember you and their Citischool experience! Everything about the program was fantastic. From the circle time, artwork that came home, the fabulous music program, and the way you teach the children at such an early age about community and giving back! Corinne was thrilled to come back and visit her sister and participate in class--so fantastic that you welcomed her back in class with open arms! The only downside to Citischool is the fact that you are not uptown and my 3rd daughter cannot go since we are moving. I am keeping my fingers crossed that you will open an uptown location in time for her to attend! Thank you for having such a positive impact on my girls!" - Monique Cunningham

"Citischool is a fantastic program. The teachers are so energetic and charismatic." - Kim Schraub

"Twins can be a challenge in any classroom setting, but our boy and girl were embraced by the Citischool teaching staff and were always delighted to be going to school. They (and we) were so pleased with the 2's program that we are planning to send them back for Citischool 3's in the fall." - Marina Belica

"Citischool is a truly special place. My son has explored diversity and creativity (while learning the basics) within a nurturing and safe environment. The sense of community that Citischool and Citibabes encompasses is epic!" - Gina Lu

"When I enrolled my two year old daughter in Citischool I had no idea how lucky I was. To be honest, I thought it would be a somewhat educationally minded play group. I seriously underestimated the strength and ingenuity of the Citischool program that Aaron and his fellow teachers have created. Through structured play, music, art and a myriad of other wonderful activities, the Citischool program strengthens kids' innate joy of learning, teaches them social skills and goes above and beyond what one would expect of a pre-school program. Lily began Citischool a rogue baby; she now sits calmly in a circle, shares, counts, and can listen to a story or play a triangle amongst a group of other kids. But the most amazing thing is how much she loves it. To this day Citischool, which has now morphed into Citicamp, is Lily's favorite place in the world. Aaron has created a remarkable program that will bring creativity, educational enthusiasm and joy to any child's and family's life." - Ellen Ross

"After finishing their second year, our twins have thrived at Citischool growing into even more curious and confident four year olds. It provides a safe and nurturing place to interact with children and families that are the cornerstone of our community. From marble paintings to cubist collages, the activities are not only extraordinarily creative, but also educational and FUN." - Ronit Berkman

"I want to thank you for the dedicated email blast you did for Sarah Sloboda Photography. The look of the email on your letterhead gave a presence to my brand only achievable through the perceived testimonial of Citibabes. From the first glance at the design, I could tell the viewers would trust your referral. You also made the process of submitting elements for the design completely effortless. I am thrilled to report that I received a number of sales resulting directly from that single email blast. Additionally, the results were immediate - queries arrived within hours of the blast. Thank you so much for a great experience and tangible results. I would definitely work with you again, and happily recommend your services." - Sarah Sloboda, Photographer, Optimist

"My daughter Juliana is attending camp this summer. She is in the mon/wed session. She LOVES it. Thank you for taking the time to talk through it with me. I know she is still not comfortable with separation so I really appreciate you accommodating her nanny. Juliana is really enjoying it. She comes home talking about the themes of the week and singing new songs." - Silvia H.

"Our family joined Citibabes earlier this month and we love it! My 3 year old son enjoys his painting class, the indoor playground, the train table in the child-minding room and the meatballs and penne at the café. For myself, I’m trying out all the great fitness classes, working out in the gym (there’s no excuse now!), and attending the parenting workshops. It’s been wonderful to meet so many other families with young children, and your staff is always so helpful and friendly. Citibabes has become our home away from home." - Colleen R.
