I always felt my baby was happy, healthy, safe, and LOVED. This daycare has the best, most caring, and loving teachers. Ms. Lina and Kristin take extra special care of my child every day in the facility. I have no words to express my gratitude to them . The administration is also great! I can’t say enough how much my family and our daughter love this place. Wish I could give more stars than 5. Thank you Open Doors Preschool of Estero for everything!!!

My daughter was at open door from the time she was two years old until VPK. I chenged her there after a bad experience at another daycare, and it was the best decision we made, so 8 month ago I put my one-year-old son there, too. I can say that I can go to work with peace of mind and with the security that he is being taken care of very well. I am so happy that my little peanut has a teacher like Ms Mayte. She is wonderful, loving, always willing to answer all my questions, professional, she always has many activities to do with the kids, and he has never come back home with bites or serious injuries. I can say that she is one of the best teachers that I have had the fortune to have in the life of my little ones. Now my boy has moved on to the next classroom because of his age and is with Ms Yanay now, he has only been there for a week but I can say that she is a very good, loving, professional teacher and always available for any concern that I have as a mom. I can also say that Miss Mary (Marielys) the amazing chef is also loving, professional, and she care a lot about the kid. My daughter, who finished VPK this year is very, very, very picky eater and with the permission of the directors, she always tried from the first day to the last one to make sure my princess didn't have an empty stomach all day and she made sure she ate something for her lunch. So, I have nothing but good things to say about the staff at Open Door Preschool (Miss Gracie, Miss Hannah, Miss Katie, and Miss Christy, who is no longer there). After my previous experience, I can say that I feel blessed to have found this daycare. So Thank you so much and never change . Vivian A.

I can’t believe what an amazing experience it has been being with Open Doors. Ms Tammy, Ms Hannah and Ms Katie have made the transition to preschool for my child smooth and enjoyable. They keep me up to date through the day and have so much kindness in their hearts. I feel confident bringing my child here. Thank you open doors for making it a easy to trust my child is in the best hands

We had a very rough time with finding a daycare for my granddaughter. She was not quit appreciated at other daycares. I would take her there, they said they would help her acclimate to being with other people and instead they would brush her iff to the corner and say she was bad. Then have me come get her. They wouldn’t take the time to understand that she had separation issues and it is very hard for her to trust other people. So they would eventually kick her out. This was an ongoing cycle. And every place I found was so much more expensive than the last. But then I found open doors. They welcomed my Granddaughter in and worked with her and she has gotten leaps and bounds better. She is happy and looks forward to going to school. And has fun. All while learning and socializing with other children. I am so grateful for Open-doors preschool of Estero. The caregivers/teachers/staff are so patient and loving with her it’s amazing. I am so glade we found them. I truly do appreciate every one of them.

Long post ahead. In short, I love this school. All the teachers and support staff are amazing. They serve healthy food and provide updates on your kids with the app throughout the day. I enrolled my 2 oldest almost 3 years ago and haven't had any regrets. My oldest just recently spent the summer here. They had bounce housees/water slides, snow cones, and different visitors come each week. Miss Hannah and Miss Brooke surely did amazing keeping everything fun for the summer. Even with all the rain. My 3 year old enjoys Miss Cassie's class. He has grown so much in that class. He's learned his colors and shapes and talks so much more now. He wasn't a big talker. Her and Miss Leana have helped us get him potty trained and helped encourage during any setbacks. My youngest just left the infants room with Steffy and Milady. They always treated my baby like she was theirs. Having such loving care givers at this age was very important to me. And the way they watch and love on the babies is so heartwarming. And the same for her current teachers in the ones class room with Ms Yanay. They serve breakfast, lunch, and snacks, which is a great perk as a working parent. Ms. Mary does a great job keeping the menu healthy and adding new things to the menu. Administration wise Ms Gracie and Ms Katie are very easy to talk to and are always there to help you with payments, any paperwork or just keeping updated on everything going on at the school and with your kids.

Open doors preschool is an AMAZING child care center, and that’s almost an understatement. Ms. Miladys and Ms.Steffy are great caregivers in the infant classroom, my 8 month old is well taken care of during his time there. I also have a 2 year old and a 6 year old that attends this facility and everyday they are absolutely thrilled to attend. I love the various activities that they do each day and the photos for me to track their day when they are there. If I could give a 10 star rating it would be to open doors preschool of Estero for sure.

I want to take a special thank you to everyone that helped me with my daughter until her graduation. Miss Tammy miss Gracie and miss Hannah also miss yaini and also miss mary ❤️ were very fundamental to my child's growth and development throughout the years. My daughter has been going to this place since she's been 1 and it's bitter sweet she will be going to kindergarten. I would DEFINITELY recommend this school for any parent looking. They are family and they care about your kids. If I could give this place and the people working for them 1000 stars I would.
