TESTIMONIALS
When I go to before school program, I like to talk, read, and color. You should go there, too!
ElizabethStudent at Before & After School Centers, 2018-2019
As a working parent, I know that my children are experiencing new things. I can work and not worry about what’s going on. Homework help is very helpful. Learning new things and socializing are also great. I really appreciate all staff at afterschool. Thank you!

I am really grateful for Summer Lunch Bunch. My daughter, November Cole, loves coming to Summer Lunch Bunch. November enjoys all the activities ERfC provides every summer. This is our 4th year coming to this event and we enjoy it. Thank you very much for having Summer Lunch Bunch in our community!

I work a fulltime job and I’m unable to be with my son at those times. It makes me feel good as a parent to know he’s around people who care about him and his safety. It also allows him to be around his friends and spend quality time with them.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to be a part of this special day [Fall for Enfield] as a vendor, Karen's Wreaths & Things. Absolutely loved every part of it. So many people to talk to. Great day! Hope to see you next year! It was a pleasure meeting you Connie and getting a very nice welcoming hug :)

I think the summer escape program is absolutely a great thing for kids, this will be my son's 4th year attending summer escape and he loves it, it keeps him active all summer long and he gets to interact with other kids and keeps him ocuppied so he's not bored or stuck inside all summer. Also it's a place I know he will be safe at while I'm at work during the week. Overall I love the program and all the staff that works there and makes it a great place for our children.

I am so impressed by the ERfC (Educational Resources for Children) staff in Enfield. They are caring and compassionate. I would highly recommend them for before and after school care.

My children have a safe place to go with fun, interactive activities and nurturing staff!
Vicki Strnatka-KnappBefore & After School, 2018-2019
My children and I have been coming to Summer Lunch Bunch for 2 years and I am a volunteer with Summer Lunch Bunch. The kids really get the chance to improve and learn through the activities provided at Summer Lunch Bunch as well as receive healthy lunches. When kids come here, they interact with one another and get off of their electronic devices. They are able to make friends, play with educational toys, participate in raffles, and take part in events such as story time. I love Summer Lunch Bunch with my children.
