“We’ve been going to KCML for 2.5 years. They were initially a flexible drop off center and we needed a place for our son after his morning school. They are now very much an official pre school with a major learning curriculum. They did so much during the height of Covid in terms of at home content for the kids, we used to watch the teachers reading books to us and it felt so nice to have a small dose of normalcy. Then they reopened in June 2020 and have not had ONE case of Covid since then! They are so clean, so helpful, so supportive and truthfully their curriculum under the Director, Miss Luci, is really impressive. My son will be going to Kindergarten next year and I feel he is more than ready thanks to Miss Luci. Highly highly highly recommend this place.” Kids’ Clubhouse of the Main Line Parent

I cannot say enough about all the fabulous teachers! They were outstanding, caring, nurturing…everything positive. Some have been there for many years which says something! The mixed-age classrooms with elements of Montessori kept things innovative and fun for our daughter. We loved that there was so much outside time–with nature walks, free play, outside lunches, and gardening—plus much more! The families could not be more welcoming–such a lovely community! It was a very special time for our daughter. Wetherill was her foundation for learning. She still has a passion to learn and explore new things—we owe that to [Wetherill} Thank you! You will always be a a part of us!” Elizabeth K., Wetherill parent
