Alma Ortiz We’ve had a wonderful experience with Two Rivers Head Start in Sycamore. Our son has been going there for a year now and he really loves it. The teachers there are attentive, kind, and genuinely invested in the children’s learning and well-being. I’ve noticed significant growth in my son’s communication skills, confidence, and eagerness to learn. The program also emphasizes family involvement, which makes us feel like partners in his education. We highly recommend this program!

Angela H. We couldn’t be happier with ABC Preschool! The teachers and staff are incredibly kind, patient, and truly invested in the children’s well-being. My daughter loves going, and it gives me so much peace knowing she feels safe and cared for. The school is immaculate, well-structured, and provides the perfect balance of learning, play, and a gentle faith-based foundation. It’s a wonderful place for little ones to grow, and we feel so blessed to be part of this community! Highly recommend!

Megan Stralka ABC preschool is amazing. The staff is so great and helpful. My daughter has gone for 2 years now and loves it there. She is so excited to go to school each day. Their afternoon adventures program has been great in preparing my daughter for kindergarten next year.

Kelly Ness ABC Preschool is absolutely phenomenal. The staff are incredible and truly love each student as their own. The program will set your child up for success. I personally believe from experience the children who go through ABCs program are more prepared for Elementary school than most. The Director saw my oldest needed something more advanced and helped accommodate our needs in order to make that happen. Im so grateful for ABC, and I highly recommend!

Jean Evans This is a warm, caring church with ministers who really care and go out of their way to be pastoral. Each week is a new experience with tradition intertwined with newer forms of ministry. The choir is exceptional and everyone in the congregation is friendly and outgoing.

M C The new Pastor Eric is selfish and uncaring. He has taken 4 vacations this year while his older staff takes care of everything else. He also refuses to pay some staff that has been there over 30 years appropriately. Its probably why he can afford so many vacations for a pastor of a church of 25 patrons.

Zakaya Scott I wanna start by saying I love the children at this facility and all of the family that comes its overall a ok environment for the children. my experience working here is what has made me rate this place 3 stars, at first everything was going great then I feel over time the staff became a little messy talking amongst themselves about my mother and I, made the environment uneasy and barely used communication well my mother and I were also the only people of color there which made it a little bit more uncomfortable. the director of the preschool is no better she didn’t do her job to make My mother and I feel welcomed anymore she barely spoke to us in the morning and barley showed good communication, which lets me know she didn’t care about our feelings working there because we let her know how she was making us feel and the staff and a conversation never was had I just feel like When your a director your supposed to lead not follow. As a teacher assistant I wasn’t aware of many things going on and I came in as a rotational teacher and ended up getting placed in a room I didn’t have a say so on and on multiple occasions I was in the room by myself with the 2s which I thought wasn’t ok but they were ok with doing it to me. Also everyone in the facility had a assistant but my mother she was in the room by her self but everyone else had a assistant, the kids had pink eye most of the children are always hitting on one another with no appropriate call to the parents and they be having lice checks in front of the other students which I find highly inappropriate the director and one of her staff that she’s always with was rude when letting me and my mother know our last day honestly I wouldn’t work there again. MISS BOBBYS ENERGY IS DISGUSTING.

Steven Duran This is a tucked away playground that is located at Sycamore Lake Rotary Park. This is basically a hidden gem for Sycamore families with small children. There is also an outdoor pavilion at this location with plenty of covering, tables and even an outdoor charcoal grill. I like this spot a lot because of all the natural beauty in the area. There is also a paved path that people use to walk, run, and bike around the lake. I highly recommend checking out this place!
