The Vine Preschool at St James in Alexandria, VA

The Vine Preschool at St. James has been a second home to all three of our children! I cannot recommend Kim, Gloria, and their staff enough. All of my children run to the front door and are always so excited for their day. I truly feel that this place set my oldest son up for success when he transitioned to Kindergarten. The staff communicates quickly and efficiently- letting parents know what is happening during their child's day. If you are looking for an excellent daycare/preschool in the Alexandria area, you have just found it!

I highly recommend The Vine Preschool at the St James. The staff is wonderful, the facility is super clean, and just overall the experience for my daughter has been amazing. I struggled with postpartum depression and anxiety that made it incredibly hard to trust anyone with my daughter. I looked for solutions to continue to work a full time job and provide a loving, nurturing environment for my daughter. The Vine Preschool at the St James has made me feel so comfortable, warm, and that I could put my full trust in the staff to be a loving, nurturing figures in my daughter’s life. We are so happy with our experience and feel incredibly grateful that we have such a wonderful school to send our daughter.

The Vine Preschool has been my daughter’s safe haven and has eased my mama heart in our transition to daycare. Knowing that she is safe, loved, and nurtured by the teachers and director has given me peace of mind. We are so incredibly lucky to have found them. As a professional who works with kids in childcare settings the Vine Preschool has exceeded my expectations with love, kindness, and professionalism.

I love this school! We came here because we quickly needed daycare when we first arrived in the area. I am so thankful that we were blessed to find this location. The director, Ms. Kim is so extremely responsive and the staff treats each child as if they were their own. Every teacher knows each kids name even if they are not in their class and they always give a warm greeting. Ms. Kim ensures her staff is held to the highest standards in the way the staff treats and teaches the children as well as the state of the facility itself. It is kid friendly, welcoming, and above all very clean. They offer power tots during the day once a week which has been such a wonderful opportunity for my child. They love it and it has helped with development as well. We also appreciate the meals offered. It makes our lives so much easier. The academic activities are also great for child development. Finally, the app for getting updates throughout provides such peace of mind especially for infants. We initially were waitlisted for another school and when we were finally offered a spot, we knew there was no way we were changing. We have been here over two years and most certainly would recommend sending your child here for any age.

My daughter has been going to The Vine Preschool for six months and I couldn't be happier! She loves going to school everyday! The staff is very professional and incredibly dedicated. As a result, my daughter continues to develop socially and academically. The Vine Preschool provides a safe, structured, and nurturing learning environment. The teachers keep me updated regularly and have made my experience incredibly positive! They offer academic rigor and challenge my daughter to go above and beyond. As an educator myself this is something I look for. We are so happy to be a part of The Vine Preschool family.
