Calvary is excellent and has an outstanding reputation. People are also happy with Learning Links and Rainbow Station.

I have heard all of these are good too. I have heard at least 2 families have not been happy with Rainbow station, not sure why though. I have friends with kids in Learning Links and Calvary and they love both of these programs. The other two I would add are the Goddard School and the Morrison YMCA program. Also some of the area churches offer good programs, so research those as well, though I can't remember the names of them. I havn't heard of the program that you had listed.
If you are looking to enroll this year, I am guessing that all of the programs are full, but if you are looking for next year, get on the waiting list now for those that have waiting lists.

My 2 year old is at Calvary this year, and we love the program, the teachers, pretty much everything. I also heard very good things about Learning Links, but they were full when we tried to apply.

We were at Goddard in Illinois, so the program itself should be the same across the board. However to be honest it is extremely expensive compared with Calvary, for example, and for the same type of program, amenities, etc. that I could not justify it for us here.

i was really impressed with learning links. i would not recommend gateway, chesterbrook, or shining stars academy in the ballantyne area (or any of the other local locations...). goddard is OK depending on the classroom. i've worked at several of these centers and toured others while completing grad school, so my perspective is a little different.
