Important Dates!

 

 

Top of the World Preschool has been in business for over 25 years.  We understand that many factors are involved in making the most important decision of how to choose the BEST place to care for you and your family.  Our goal is to facilitate true and honest reviews and our families offer the most valuable and current source of information!

Some sources for reviews are software based.  This means that THEY decide which reviews are made public!  Other sources are having technical difficulties with displaying current reviews. 

We know that families rely on honest, transparent reviews that are current and relevant.


With this in mind, we have created a page that displays reviews offering an honest opinion from sources that are not outdated OR filtered by software!
