From Dr George Schumacher, PhD, who provides
psychotherapy and complete evaluations for adults,
adolescents, children, in Park Slope, Brooklyn
To Dr Joan
Prideaux, Ph D
I am glad to know that your excellent Therapeutic Nursery School,
Beachbrook, is
available as a valuable resource. I sent this email out to the staff at
the JCCA
( Jewish Child Care Association Brooklyn foster care office and to the
JCCA
out patient clinic ):
For preschoolers
who need intensive, individualized care of a therapeutic
nursery school program, I very strongly recommend Beachbrook Nursery
School,
in the Sheepshead Bay area of Brooklyn. They offer individualized
education that
changes as the child's needs change and grow, and social skills
training from a well
trained, dedicated staff. It could be very helpful for children with
developmental
problems, and those with severe mood and social adjustment difficulties.

George Schumacher, clinical psychologist

Dear Joan,
I just read the testimonials and one is more touching than the next.
This is a site all can be proud of. I continue to wish all the world
could know of the valuable work that has enriched the children that
have crossed through Beachbrook's doors! The enrichment is such a win
win situation for the child, the teacher, and the family. So many years
of nurturing children, Beachbrook has had a great history, and has a
great future. Anyone who wonders about the importance of Quality
Leadership need only look at Beachbrook and find an indisputable
answer. Beachbrook's Light Is Shining Brightly!
Love,
Harvey Watts
Former Beachbrook Board Member

Dear Joan,
CarrieAnn is
30 yrs old now, lives at home with us. We moved to Levitttown
Long Island in 1991. CarrieAnn attends an AHRC daytime hub site in
Farmingdale where she does community work, like meals on wheels.
She is one of their best workers and has a full happy life.
I
remember bringing her to Beachbrookwhen she was barely four years
old. I felt so scared and confused. Carrie was my first Baby and
things were not going as they were supposed to be.
Through the
years and all the tears that were part of the experience, you and
everyone at Beachbrook were a God send.
I don't think CarrieAnn
would be the child that I now consider gift from God, if it were not
for you and every teacher and mother we met at Beachbrook.
I have always wanted to thank you.
Carrie and I learned so
much from you.
Carrie has a twenty three year old brother, and
a seventeen year old sister who is going to be a Freshman at Adelphi
in September. I know that the skills I learned from our
experience with you and Beachbrook made me a better mother to all of
them.

Dear Dr. Prideaux:
I was googling someone, and in my list of possible connections,
Beachbrook showed up. Could it be the same Beachbrook that I attended
half a century ago?! Yes!
I have fond memories of the different color classrooms, the outside
play yard, and my mother hiding in the bushes to make sure I "mingled."
She always regarded Beachbrook as a model of what a pre-school (then
called 'nursery school') should be.
I'm long since out of Brooklyn. I live in Atlanta. But the lessons
learned at your school lie within, and I'm glad to know you are still
an important component of the community.
Cordially,
Meredith Rubel

Dear Parents,
My son Nicholas
attended Beachbrook Nursery School from September 1998 - August 2001.
During his time there, both Nicholas and myself received support and
understanding from Beachbrook's very caring staff. It is because of
this wonderful school and its staff that Nicholas is now able to
function in an inclusion program in a regular public school. I will
never forget all the hard work
that was put into helping Nicholas cope with his disability. Everyone
worked together as a team and although it wasn't an easy time, the
reward was great in the end. If you or someone you know has a child
with special needs, my advise to you would be to look no further than
Beachbrook Nursery School. The Program they have is as unique as the
people who run it. You and your child will form friendships that will
last a lifetime.
Sincerely,
Laura Maddaloni

We, the parents
of Saul Sanchez give thanks, firstly to the director, Joan, for
accepting our son into her school; and secondly, to the teachers, for
the hard work and dedication you have given my son. I know that this
was not an easy task, because working with my son is never easy. Saul
was an overly active child. We didn't know what to do. He never stood
still, he would throw himself on the floor. I could never run any
errands. If I walked into a store, he would grab everything and would
do really bad things like hit and bite children. He was never tired.
Thank you for the care the teachers and therapists have given my son in
this wonderful Program. This school is truly magnificent for giving
parents the opportunity to learn how to work with their own children.
The weekly Parent
Meeting is a great idea. We couldn't have done this without the support
of the school. I would invite all parents to take the time out to sit
in one of the meetings and classrooms so that parents can witness the
special care and attention that is given to all the children, so that
we can better help and understand our children. We are very sad that
our son will be leaving this school soon, because he has been a
different child since attending. Again, our deepest thanks and
gratitude to the director, teachers and staff. We will always be
appreciative.
Sincerely,
Vilma and Saul
Sanchez

My daughter was
speech delayed. She was also very sensitive and shy. If a stranger
visited, she cried until the person left. However all that has changed
after she spent two years at Beachbrook Nursery School. I can vividly
remember my child's first day at school. When I left she didn't cry -
which was unusual. From then her life began to change. She has
blossomed, and is presently functioning as a typical four year old. Her
teacher, Barbara, has lovingly nurtured her as a mother would nurture
her baby. My child has a sense of security, and now communicates with
confidencE.
The dedicated staff catered, not only to my daughter's psychological
needs, but also to her intellectual, physical, social and moral
development. I extend tremendous praise and heartfelt gratitude to the
staff at Beachbrook Nursery School for a marvelous job well done.

We were very lucky to find this center-based Therapeutic Program at
Beachbrook. This is a school that puts children first, and each and
every child is well known to all levels and departments. Our son has
made definite progress in many of his autistic aspects. Given that our
son has been at school for little more than a year, the positive change
is extremely noteworthy.

I would like to
write these few words to you, as this is the opportunity to thank you
and your staff for the hard work and commitment to improve my son
Abraham's speech. Also, my wife Hanna would like to thank you for your
effort and patience to teach and educate our son to the right way, and
this is a Sacred Job. Your generosity and courtesy let us feel that
there are nice people who try to help others without complaints of
tiredness. Our son is improving better and better and we are proud of
him because of you. I came from a place that cared less and less about
children who do not speak at their early ages. We thought that when the
child got older, he/she will speak, but this is a wrong idea. When I
came to this country, I changed my idea and found that every thing is
possible here. I enjoyed the opportunity to meet with you and other
parents on Wednesdays. Again, my wife and I appreciate your desire to
continue to educate our son. GOD BLESSES YOU ALL.
Sincerely Yours,
The Colage Family

To The Staff Of Beachbrook Nursery School:
I'm writing this letter to express my appreciation to Everyone who has
been responsible for Justin Presley's successful educational time at
this learning institution. He has learned so many things. One special
thing he has learned and is still learning is to communicate. It is a
blessing to have a learning institution such as Beachbrook Nursery
School who believes in its staff, and has ompassion and love for the
children whom they teach to excel in other areas so they can live like
other children in this society that we live in - as people of different
cultures and other nationalities. I thank you for everything you have
done for Justin's mind, body, spirit. You are an inspiration to myself
and my child. I'll always remember Justin's First Sentence: MOMMY I
LOVE YOU!
Thank You,

Beachbrook has touched my life like a sweet flower touched by a bee. I
am glad the day I stepped into the school and was touched by the
welcome and caring staff members in the school. If there was a question
do I think my children are loved, I know the answer. Without a doubt
love overflows from each person in the school; the Director, Teacher,
there is even love in the food. My boys, twins Michael and Mark Johnson
are students, and every day they keep on saying, I love my teacher, I
love my school, etc. And my heart just knows they feel at home. So
don't be worried, give Beachbrook a chance and you will see the
difference.
May all your hearts be blessed as you do your work day to day.
And May God Bless You All.
My children, Michael and Mark Johnson, love you all - as I do myself.

My sons, Brandon
and Robert, both attend Beachbrook Nursery School. And with the effort
of their caring teachers, they now speak clear words. They also taught
them to discover how to interact with other children. I couldn't have
dreamed of a better nursery to learn from. I only hope these words help
you to choose Beachbrook to let your children reap the full benefit of
what they offer. You will be glad with the end results. Thank You so
much Beachbrook Nursery.

I am glad my son William Wong went to Beachbrook; Speech impaired, he
had difficulties socializing. Now he talks more and is happier. He
graduated on June 17, 2005 Friday, and now he is going to Summer school
at Beachbrook, getting ready to go to Kindergarten. Beachbrook is an
excellent school with a caring staff. I recommend it. For a family on
public assistance, they were very helpful to us. If your child needs
Beachbrook, come, you'll be glad you did !

As a mother, I was nervous and scared to have my son go to school.
Though as time went on and I saw the love my son had for each teacher,
I became at ease. Since then, my son has taught me a lesson that is
very important. And I trust Beachbrook and their staff with the most
delicate flower I have. Christomar has achieved so much that there were
times that I was jealous. There is nothing, not even words that can
express the thanks and appreciation that I have for this school. If I
had one wish, I would expand Beachbrook to more grade levels and leave
my son there. Thank You beachbrook and Staff. Words can't explain how I
feel.
Christomar Licona

Veverlyne Cortez
Thank You with
all our hearts
Keep up the excellent work !

Dear Beachbrook,
My son was unable to cooperate and had a difficult time learning how to
speak and communicate with others. Since my child was admitted to this
school, he has improved tremendously with the hands - on learning
experience and great teachers. My son is able to make friends,
cooperate and understand, and even has improved his speaking abilities.
I thank you Beachbrook for allowing my son the chance to better
himself. I am very grateful, and I know that this will pay off in the
future. Thank You once again.
Sincerely,
Lenny Zuniga

Beachbrook Nursery School is one of the best schools in the Brooklyn
area. My son, at three years old started there, so his English improved
a lot - and what he has learned at Beachbrook is great. Joan Prideaux,
Ph.D is the director. She is a very nice person and had so much advice
about how to treat children in a different way. If I had any questions
about how my child was developing, I'd ask her and she'd give me a very
good answer. Barbara is my child's teacher. She is very nice. Every
time my son didn't feel well, or got hurt, she'd call me and tell me
what is wrong. I like that very much because I think she cares about my
son. Dorothy worked with my son as an assistant teacher in his
classroom. She helped him to learn a lot, and cares so much about him.
I remember the first day I send my son to school, and later I came to
pick him up. I saw that Dorothy held my son in her lap as she sat with
him on the rocking chair. I was so happy that he had the greatest care
giver in the world. I am so happy that I couldn't control the tears
that dropped from my eyes. This is my true emotion, and a true story.
So every morning my son leave me, and go to school for two years. I
know he get good care there, has a good teacher, gets love, care, and
he is taught well, and I feel fine. I think anyone who goes to this
school will be the lucky one.
Love,
Mary Situ

Markus, age 4, is doing very well since he is going to Beachbrook. He
could name lots of animals, and colors, he has learned to count and
share with other kids. Markus was very hyper, but has settled down. The
teachers in Beachbrook are very professional and working very hard to
complete goals. Thank you very much for all your hard work.

Hello,
My name is Lucinda Roman. My son Micah Roman has been attending
Beachbrook for the past eight months or so, and in such a short period
of time I have seen a very positive change in my son's behavior - as
well as academically he has improved so much. And I believe it's
because of Beachbrook and their staff, who continuously point and guide
him in the right direction. I believe that anyone who has a child like
my own, or any child who has a delay of some sort will benefit from
becoming part of the Beachbrook family, because that's exactly what it
is - a family. People say it takes a village to raise a child and
Beachbrook is that village. Beachbrook is also helping me to learn how
to raise my child, and also teaching me how to attend to my child's
very special needs. I guarantee you will love Beachbrook Nursery as
much as I do!
Sincerely,
Lucinda Roman

Hello, my name
is Victor Azcatl, Victoria and Nataly Azcatl's father. Since my
daughters have attended Beachbrook, I feel that they have grown
emotionally. Their lives have changed for the better. They used to be
very shy and withdrawn with strangers as well as with family members
until they started coming to Beachbrook. Here the teachers are loving
and caring, and have helped my
daughters pass through many obstacles. This school has helped my
daughters form relationships with people. I can now say for the first
time that my daughters have made many new friendships, especially with
their teacher Pat. To her I will always be grateful, and indebted to
her. She has a great heart.
Thank You Very Much Pat!

WOW ! Where do I
begin ?
Beachbrook Nursery School has been a GOD- Send to my family and I. We
travel quite a bit to get there. It's a sacrifice worth making.
Beachbrook Nursery School Teachers, and Staff along with its wonderful
Director, Joan Prideaux has amazingly found a way to nurture, love, and
teach these children far more than my expectations ! So much so that
there have been three generations of my family's kids that attended
their school, the oldest being a 16 year old boy now attending "a
gifted school", and the youngest being 4 years old, my son Mark. I
truly believe these are the fragile years, and I thank Beachbrook for
helping my son. The individualized love, attention and support they
give is uniquely theirs. I put off having more children for now, but
I'll tell you this; If I ever change my mind, Beachbrook Nursery School
will always be first on my list. I wish the school
continued success ! And again, thank you for loving my son and
supplying me with
the tools necessary to continue your teachings, love and patience for
the children.
Thank You,
Mark's Mother, Maritza Ramos

Denasia
Cardenale has been with the Program for a year and a half. She has
progressed a lot from her teacher Connie's commitment and hard work. I
am very pleased with the Program and how my child is responding to it.
Her teacher is very caring, and patient. I am happy that the school
works so very well for children.

Billy has come a long way with the help of Beachbrook Nursery School.
Billy has learned how to communicate and express his needs better.
Before, Billy would easily get frustrated because of his communication
difficulties. Beachbrook teachers are caring and very patient. The
teachers take their time to figure out what your child's needs are and
try to help them as best they can. I personally want to thank
Beachbrook for what they have done to help my son, Billy.

My wife, Elona Herlich, and I would like to express our sincere
gratitude to Dr. Joan Prideaux, Ms Patricia Husain, and Ms Sarah Davis
for the work they have done on behalf of our son, Leon.
Dr. Prideaux
graciously welcomed Leon to Beachbrook Nursery School in September
2003. During the period from 2003 to the present, Dr. Prideaux has
worked diligently with Leon, engaging him in special sessions with one
other student in order to develop Leon's ability to relate and interact
with other children. Ms. Patricia Husain, who has been Leon's special
education teacher during this
two-year period, has also demonstrated an unwavering commitment to Leon
in the classroom in terms of working to develop his cognitive skills
while, at the same time, trying to address his behavioral issues. Ms.
Husain has always made herself available to my wife, always responding
to our concerns in the most conscientious manner during the past two
years.
We also want to
extend special thanks to Ms. Sarah Davis - Leon's aide - for her
patience and hard work with Leon.
In light of the
unstinting devotion of Dr. Prideaux, Ms. Husain to Leon's educational,
social and emotional development during his tenure at Beachbrook
Nursery School, it was not surprising that at the end of this school
year, they invested a substantial amount of time and energy to ensure
that Leon was placed in an appropriate kindergarten program for
September, 2005. My wife and I have
been extremely fortunate in having Leon educated at the Beachbrook
Nursery School during the past two years. We are deeply indebted to Dr.
Prideaux, Ms. Pat Husain and Ms. Sarah Davis for the high standards of
professionalism, which they so amply demonstrated by their diligent,
artful, and insightful work on behalf of our son, Leon.We wish to thank
Joan, Pat and Sarah from the bottom of our hearts.

Before Sal started at Beachbrook, he only spoke when he wanted
something. Even then, he would only use one word. Six months later he
evokes conversations. He tells stories about events at school and at
home. Beachbrook has given him the confidence to come out of his shell.
I can't wait to see what he can accomplish over the next six months.
Every day brings my family some joy now that Sal has brought himself to
us by becoming verbal.
Sal's Mom,

Although my
child hasn't been with me for long, the time he has been with me has
been long enough for me to see improvements in his speech. He is also
more talkative and social according to other people who know him. The
staff of the nursery keep me informed which I appreciate. I also like
having the opportunity to visit him at school even though I have yet to
take advantage of that opportunity. My child comes home singing songs,
saying his alphabet and numbers. His willingness
to learn and flourish brings me joy and I thank the nursery for
nurturing him and providing him with a place for growth.

I am content
that my child has dramatically improved in her speech/language. Not

conquer her obstacles of delay.

I don't know
much about the school because I have only worked with you all for a few
weeks. However, the teacher and staff members seem to be very concerned
and caring about the students in the school. I do know that my child
looks forward to going to school every day and when I ask him how was
his day? He always says good, and I ate my snack. ( He loves snack! )
He seems happy at school, he also loves his teachers. I would just like
to say thank you for caring and sharing with Jahtquane Harris. Keep up
the good work! Working with children is truly a gift from GOD...And you
will be Blessed..
Thank You..

Sasha has been
attending Beachbrook Therapeutic Nursery School since December 2005. I
must admit that Beachbrook has been a wonderful place for Sasha. I
personally witnessed the transformation in her. Sasha's speech has
improved a hundred percent. Whatever she does or learns at school, she
demonstrates at home and it's all good and exciting - not only for
Sasha but for us as well. We are very happy and satisfied that Sasha is
attending this great and wonderful facility. We are extremely proud of
Sasha and Beachbrook Nursery School, as well. It's a decision we would
never regret.

My name is Diana, and my daughter Barbara has been attending Beachbrook
Therapeutic Nursery School for the past couple of years. Barbara was
very hard to manage, when it came to getting her to talk without
screaming and hitting since I never knew what she wanted. I would give
her toys and she destroyed them, she never wanted to sit down longer
than a minute and focus on what she had. For a long time I thought
there was no hope for Barbara improving, but then I decided to take her
to Beachbrook. I t has been an amazing experience, the staff is
wonderful, and Joan has not only helped Barbara, but also myself and
other parents with parent meetings, and so we can get to know one
another and know that we are not alone. Barbara can now sit and do
puzzles by herself, She no longer wears a diaper during the day. She
can talk well and has learned to ask me for what she wants instead of
throwing fits. There is still room for more improvement for Barbara,
but she has come a long way, and it is because of the nurturing and
guidance Beachbrook has provided. Thank you everyone at Beachbrook for
your love and support. We will miss you when Barbara moves on to
Kindergarten.
Sincerely,
Diana B.

I think
Beachbrook Nursery is a great school because when my child came to the
school, he was delayed in learning, because he was three months
premature at birth. Now that he is four and a half years old, he is
functioning the way he should for children his age. So I think
Beachbrook is a great school!

My son Andrew

with his speech delay.

My son has been
attending Beachbrook Nursery School for about four months. I must say
that I am happy that I have chosen this school for him. I have seen
great improvement in his confidence and his speech. He is able to
interact a little with others. I want to thank his teachers for their
patience, their love and understanding. My thanks to the director Joan,
for the advise that she has given me on how to deal with my son. Once
again, thank you everyone who is playing a part in the education of my
son. To parents who are thinking of putting their child in a special
school, I personally
recommend the Beachbrook School.

**************
As soon as my
son began to attend the nursery, I have noticed a change in his
behavior. He became more attentive towards my commands and questions
instead of running away or ignoring me. His eye contact is much better
now. He still needs more work toward his speech, but already I see how
hard he tries to repeat words after me. Sometimes he repeats clearer
than other days. Overall, I must say that the staff is very
professional in regards to any questions or concerns either myself or
my husband might have. Thank you very much for all the hard work and
patience, because I know how hard my son can make it for you.

helping me, and thank you for making our experience in Beachbrook a

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the Staff at Beachbrook
for the incredible job that was done with my child. When Lucy started
in Beachbrook, she was three years old and was not speaking much. Nor
was she able to stay focused with the task she was at. After only a few
months of her attending school, she is speaking and expressing her
feelings. She is aware of her surroundings and interacts with children
wonderfully. The Teachers are very compassionate and caring about their
students and it shows. I am continuously bragging about Beachbrook to
all my friends and co-workers - telling them that this was the Best
decision I made for my children.

I am writing
this letter to let Beachbrook Nursery School know that I am real
thankful that they have done a lot for my child, Tokunboh Oluwasesan.
Because when Tokunboh first came there, he could not help himself by
talking. He was in diapers. He wasn't using the bathroom. Beachbrook
Nursery School was a real inspiration to my child, Tokunboh. The
school's teachers are doing a real good job for my child Tokunboh.
Every day Tokunboh comes home, I have to kiss him because he is a
special child from GOD. Beachbrook Nursery School gives my child
Tokunboh lots of love, and knowledge so he can learn. I am real happy
he can write, go to the bathroom. He knows how to count. Tokunboh knows
how to write his name. He knows how to spell his name. I am real happy
the day I find Beachbrook Nursery School, especially all the teachers
and staff. I am real thankful, especially to the Teachers, and Speech
Teacher. Miss Florence Harrison you have done a good job. You really
work with my child Tokunboh a lot. Thanks. Thanks very much. I am
really happy for my son Tokunboh. Beachbrook Nursery School gives
Tokunboh the confidence to believe
in himself. Every day Tokunboh comes home, he improves. Especially, I
am real thankful to all the teachers and staff.
Again, Thank You,

I don't know how
to start. My son, when he turns 3 years, he don't understand anything.
He don't even know his mother, his father. He used to talk only his
language. I was so nervous and so much worried that my son would never
talk. I came from another country. I don't know what I am going to do.
One of my friends told me there is some school that teach children to
talk. After I go to district 21, I found Beachbrook Nursery School. I
go with my son to them. Beachbrook staff, everybody, including
director, and teacher Florence, they are so nice and kind. They take
care of my son like their son. With their hard work, my son speak
English very nice. When he call me daddy, I feel so happy. Thank you
all the staff of Beachbrook Nursery School. I am so fortunate for your
kindness and good favor. In future, parents who can go and bring their
children in this school, they will be so lucky.
Thank You,

**************
My family and I would like to express our feelings about our son's
milestones. We would like to say that we have appreciated that you are
doing awesome and sacred work. Also, we must respect that you have
given our son Abraham the opportunity to learn how to speak and behave
the way children without problems do. Our son now can talk, ask, and
behave well. One day I tried to remember when he was two years old,
when he could not pronounce a word, and my wife and I were very worry
about him. Finally, a friend of ours recommended us to take him to
Beachbrook. We very much admire you for your patience, effort and
dedication to teach our children and guide them to the right way. The
different strategies and teaching styles that you are applying toward
children make you a successful staff, and the children are happy and
eager to go to school! Again, we thank all Beachbrook Nursery School's
Staff for their work and determination. And GOD BLESS YOU ALL.

Dear Pat,
Thank you so
much for having the patience with my daughters, Nataly and Victoria for
all of these years. They have learned a lot of things because of you,
especially Nataly. I know it is because you were patient and caring. I
also know that when they become young women, they will understand that
you were an integral part of their lives, as their very first teacher
who taught them their very first things. From here on now, they will
have other teachers who will teach them more, so that some day they
will become successful women, but it was you Pat, their first teacher,
that I will forever be grateful to. Every day I will always remind them
that you were an important part of their lives,
and that you had the patience to work with them. I wish you and your
sons every happiness.
Thank You Pat,
Victoria and Nataly Thank You Too!

I love Beachbrook Nursery School.
The Staff is great there. Three of my children went there for different
reasons. I recommended people to the school and they love it as well.
The staff at Beachbrook doesn't change that much like other schools.
They are like a family that your child will get to know for years. My
seventeen year old daughter Nicole went toBeachbrook in 1991 to 1994.
She had a teacher named Florence and she is still teaching there. They
are all great with children. My daughter Jaclyn went to Beachbrook in
2000 to 2003. Her teacher was Pat and Tina and Pat is still there as
well. My son Lawrence goes to Beacbrook now and he loves to go to
school there,and my other children love to go back to visit. They
taught my children a lot. My daughter Nicole learned how to be creative
with her art work. She won the art show at Columbia University in
2003,and her drawing went on the 2004 Murals
Calendar Cover. My daughter Jaclyn is an honor roll student for three
years now in public school 226 because of her early learning at
Beachbrook. They taught her how to read and behave, and she is doing
wonderful at school. My son Lawrence used to have many learning
problems when he was very little. I really was scared that he would not
over come his problems, but he has come a long way with the help and
devotion of his teacher Barbara and all the staff at Beachbrook. They
taught him so much. He is really a very smart well behaved boy now
thanks to every one in the family at Beachbrook Nursery School.
We Love You ALL!

Joan Prideaux, Teachers and Staff,
Congratulations!
You have mentored and prepared yet another group of aspiring children
to face the world strong and confident. I cannot thank you enough for
my little one " Mark " who was so shy and scared in the beginning. I
have seen with my very eyes as he has blossomed into a more vibrant
energetic full of life little boy, who looks forward to getting on the
bus day after day to Beachbrook Nursery. When Mark is not able to go he
says to me ( very adamant ) No mom! I must go they will miss me... I
must thank Mrs. Barbara who has been like a second mom to Mark, thank
you so much Barbara for treating my little one as one of your own. Joan
thank you for having this dream to help the children on a therapeutic
level, yet remaining a very normal and stable Environment. I would also
like to thank the staff who was always kind and courteous. I won't
forget to mention the wonderful people who every day provide our kids
with a healthy breakfast and lunch, thank you! I plan to tell my son
about his beginnings and the people who helped him prepare for life
ahead when he gets older and excels. I will definitely recommend
Beachbrook Nusery to anyone
who might need it. May GOD continue to Bless you Joan, Barbara, and
Staff for a job well done!! We will miss you very much.
Forever
implanted in our hearts....

My experience
with Beachbrook has been a positive, rewarding one! My daughter Sasha
Benjamin, has been a student since 2005. Sasha's progress has been a
triumphant and successful one. She came from uttering nothing to saying
a variety of words to full sentences. I will recommend Beachbrook to
anyone. The teachers are patient and well equipped to take care of
children with special needs. My only regret is that Sasha is graduating
from the Program in June 2007. When it comes to Beachbrook Nursery
School, you rest assured, because your child is in excellent and
dedicated hands.
Sincerely Yours,
Mrs. Gale Benjamin

Beachbrook has

My son has been attending Beachbrook School for approximately one and a

improvement in not only his speech, but his self-confidence. I want to
thank his teachers, therapist and all those who played a role in his
achievements. I also want to say a special thank-you to the director
Joan for her great advice, help and wonderful support...keep up the
good work with the staff and kids.

Dear Dr Prideaux,
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to say a few words about
Beachbrook Nursery School. Beachbrook is a blessing for me because when
I was looking for a school for my disabled son, Yves Bellevue, it was
very hard and finally I was discouraged and got depressed because every
school was booked up when I brought him for an evaluation. I always
heard that heart breaking answer. We don't have the program for him. I
thought that I'd never find a school for him for the year until at the
last minute,when the district sent me to you. It was more than I was
hoping for. Because you have program in the afternoon which was
blessing because he doesn't wake up early in the morning. And Thank God
for that! And thank you also for your services, the staff, especially
Ms Barbara. She makes Yves feel special by giving him gifts on
holidays, and his Birthday. Thank you. May God
bless your work ever more. I think Beachbrook is a perfect school for
children like mine, so I would encourage parents to enroll their kids
at Beachbrook because they have good programs. When Yeves comes home,
he's been doing some singing and dancing, he even knows colors, so I
know Beachbrook has a good program. Thank you again! (The name of the
supplement I give Yves is called Herbs For Kids)

I am ecstatic with the services that Beachbrook has provided for my
daughter. I see a dramatic change in Alyma's speech and behavior. She
participates and volunteers in household duties and picking up her

passion for learning now. Thank You Beachbrook!

I will
congratulate all the staff of Beachbrook Nursery School for the
excellent educational experience they have provided my child Trevon
Cousely. He has improved a lot in pronouncing words, he loves his
teacher Pat, and he calls her name at home all the time. Trevon looks
forward to going to school every day on the school bus. Staff of
Beachbrook, thanks again for your excellent job!

First and foremost I would like to thank all of the teachers who worked
with Destiny and Demetrius, to help them meet their goals. Beachbrook
Nursery teachers are great. They take time with your children one on
one. If I had it to do again, my choice would be Beachbrook nursery for
my kids. In closing, I would like to thank the director for having
space for my two kids to attend, the teachers, for all their support in
helping my kids. Thank You, hope to see you soon again for another year!

I am glad to
have found Beachbrook Nursery School for my son David. David has made
tremendous progress in his speech as well as behavior. David was such a
hyperactive child that it was recommended that I take him out of the
school he was in and put him into another school. It was hard for me as
a single parent, and a parent of two young boys, to find a place where
he would get the necessary help he needed. God's grace has led me to
Beachbrook Nursery School. David has been attending Beachbrook for
about seven months now and is doing very well. His teachers are doing
an excellent job with him. I would like to thank especially Joan,
Florence, and Ms Brenda for all their hard work.
Sincerely,
Gislane Phillip

As a parent who
has her three year old daughter attending Beachbrook Nursery School,
I'd like to take the time to thank Dr Joan Prideaux for accepting
Mckenzie Jarvis at her school. I'd like to thank her teacher Barbara
and Dawn for being such loving teachers. Since I'd never leave Mckenzie
with anyone before, I was very nervous leaving her in their care, but
they promised me that she would be okay, and after lots of
encouragement, I realized that Mckenzie really loved her teachers and
loved going to school, so I became very comfortable. I'm not worried
anymore because I know I
can always talk to her teachers and Joan Prideaux. If I have any
concerns, they are always willing to guide me whenever I need to
understand something I don't understand. Mckenzie is doing great, and
since she has a speech problem where she doesn't make full sentences,
sEe now does come home with many new words, and is less hyperactive.
Thank you Beachbrook staff and teachers for the wonderful work you are
doing, and as Mckenzie continues in your school, I'm looking forward to
more progress. If there is any parent who would like to send their
child/children to Beachbrook
Nursery School, and is as nervous as I was, please do not hesitate
because you are doing the right thing. Your child will be safe, your
mind will be at ease, and both you and your child will love it!
Mckenzie's MOM
**************
For the year and
three months that my daughter has been going to your school, she has
improved in her speech and her counting. She also knows how to spell
her name and knows different colors. I recommend that lots of moms send
their kids to Beachbrook Nursery School. They'll be surprised how much
their child will learn in a short time!
Shania's MOM
**************
Beachbrook is
the best school to send your child to if they are struggling with
speech. I say that because my daughter Shamia attends Beachbrook for
one year and three months and her speech is improving dramatically. She
can spell her name, write numbers, and count to 31. She knows her
shapes and can spell cat. She knows how to dress herself, and button
her clothes, and she's improving in her potty training.
Shamia's MOM
**************
Thank you Beachbrook for all that you've done for my child. Every day
that she attended the school, I know that she was safe and well taken
care of. To Joan Prideaux, and her staff, and excellent teachers and
counselors, I thank you all for the excellent education, and teaching
skills you have provided. And how you helped so many children who have
special needs, socially and behaviorally. Please continue to keep up
the fine work you've been doing. With my love and sincere
thanks,
Thank You,

To Whom It May
Concern:
My son has been attending Beachbrook for one and a half years. He
receives speech and counseling. He entered saying very little and now
he can have a conversation. He is a loving boy who needs atttention and
he receives it at Beachbrook, through his teachers and therapists.
Beachbrook keeps parents updated on how their child progresses.
Beachbrook also gives parents advice on continuing the progress of
their child at home. My son is aging out, and my son and myself, will
miss Beachbrook.

This is a very good opportunity for me to thank Beachbrook family,
teachers and staff. Thank you Dr Joan Prideaux for accepting my son
into your school. I am so happy that my son finally got the help that
he needed. My son Brandon has been in school four months. He has
already made a lot of progress. He can say more words, and understands
more when I talk to him.
I enjoy the
weekly parent meetings. That is a very strong support for the parents.
I love the opportunity to be in the class with my son. Brandon loves
school, as well as myself.
Beachbrook
teachers are kind, caring, loving, patient and understanding. My son
Brandon just switched to the full day program. We will miss you Pat.
Brandon will still be with Myrna. I felt so much better. Because
Brandon already knows her. Brandon started to call for Myrna as soon as
he started to go to school four months ago. I know Brandon will get
even more help now that he spends more time at school. I have faith in
you - Beachbrook family, and my son Brandon. Keep up the good work.
Beachbrook will always be number 1 forever and ever. Thank You a
million times.
Parent of Brandon,

Dear Parents:
I would truly
like to personally recommend Beachbrook ("Beachbrook") Nursery School
to all parents of qualifying children. It was almost by accident that I
discovered this relatively unknown educational haven conveniently
located in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn. Two of my children each spent two
(2) years benefiting from the school's program and each of them made
very steady progress which prepared them well for the next step
("turning 5"). This is a school which makes children the top priority
on a daily basis.

Just nine months
ago my four year old son couldn't say yes or no, all he really did was
repeat what he heard. But since starting Beachbrook all of that has
changed. It is like my son is a new person. He speaks better, he can
get his point across now. It was like he was sleeping and they woke him
up.
I know he still needs more help, but in the short time that he has
attended Beachbrook he has improved a lot.The staff at this school are
really doing great things for children. I'm just glad that they came
into me and my son's life!
Thank you,

My son Marvin attended Beachbrook Nursery School from November 2007. I
was so lucky to find this Therapeutic Program School for my son. Since
then I have been telling all my friends about this lovely school, and
how beautiful the teachers are with the kids, especially Teacher
Natasha, Teacher Florence, and also Director Joan Prideaux.
I will never forget all the hard work that was put into helping my son
Marvin with his speech delay. And now, he be able to speak much better
than before. He has definitely made a lot of progress with his speech,
and also to be able to communicate and play with other kids, which was
so difficult for him to do. I can see now a sense of security and
confidence about him, even though he got to stay one more year at this
school, and I know how sad I will be to see my son leaving this school.
My son Marvin, his father, Jean Max Guerrier and also his mother,
Valerie Atime, enjoy the opportunity to say thanks again to all the
Staff, and gratitude to the Director, and Teachers. We will never
forget about your efforts!

Where do I start?
When my child was diagnosed in the summer of 07 with PDD, I was
depressed. I was also told that my son must attend a special school
because of his delay. I did an internet search and Beachbrook School
was the first to appear. I called the school and spoke to Susan and
explained to her my situation. She took the information and went over
the process of attending Beachbrook. Keep in mind that this was the end
of August 2007 with the next school year quickly approaching. I met
with the Director Joan and she explained in detail the Program. After
meeting with her, I decided to send my son to Beachbrook.
Fast foward..............When he entered this school, he was not
talking, making eye contact , or answering to his name. Now he has
answering to his name, is attempting to connect words, and is making
eye contact.
I have to thank everyone at Beachbrook and look foward to working with
them next year.

I knew that your
school would be good for my Joseph because the teachers in your school
care about the kids' well being, and they teach them how to be around
other surroundings, and around other children. I have seen a lot of
changes with Joseph since he has gone to your school. He expresses
himself more and wants to learn more and is interested in a lot of
books, numbers, ABC's, and pays a lot more attention to things around
him, and who is with him. He wants to experience and learn more. I am
happy he talks a little bit more now then before. Thank you for letting
Joseph go to your school. It is well appreciated.

To Joan Prideaux,
Thank you, thank you!
I want to thank you and the wonderful staff and clinicians at
Beachbrook Nursery school. I am a parent of a student currenty
attending your half day school. My son's life has been richly improved
since he started in late January 2008. Before attending your school I
was asked by two baby sitters and one Day Care Center not to return
with my son, due to severe behavioral issues. At the time of these
incidents he was only 2.11 years old. I was devastated and broken as a
parent. I was introduced to Beachbrook Nursery School by the
coordinator of his IEP from district 17 Board Of Education. Since
arriving at Beachbrook our lives have changed. My son is more focus,
throws fewer tantrums and is easier to handle. Moreover, he is a joy to
be around as my neighbors and friends has expressed to me. I just want
to thank Dr Joan for our many in office parent meetings and also to
allow me to sit with my son in class to do classroom activities. My
only wish is if I could be more available to attend these "very
meaningful sessions", with you. Thanks again to your wonderful staff
for caring and to teach us parents with special children that there is
always a light at the end of the tunnel.

at Beachbrook for fourteen months and now she will be leaving due to
her age. Since coming to Beachbrook, I have seen so much progress in
her. She writes free hand, spells a lot of words. She used to be very,
very, hyper. Now she is very easy to handle. Her speech has improved
and she is well trained. I'd like to say a special thank you to her
teachers, Margaret and Regina. You are great teachers and I love you.
Thank you for the patience and love you showed to Mckenzie. I would
like to say to any parent who is searching for a secure and loving
atmosphere to send their kids to school, look to Beachbrook!! My
daughter did not only learn from Beachbrook, but I did also. Thank you
Dr Joan, your staff is amazing, and thank you for being there anytime
we needed you. I wish that Mckenzie didn't have to leave, but I know
that she will take everything she learned from Beachbrook with her

with the first steps she took at Beachbrook, It's a Miracle!!

Beachbrook Therapeutic Nursery is a wonderful
school for children with any delay in their development. Before Jessica

To Joan, Florence and the staff at Beachbrook,
Wow, this school year is coming to a close. My son
was diagnosed with PDD July 2007 when he was 3. At the time, I was told
that my son will have to attend pre-school special education school. I
was devastated. Since this was the beginning of the Fall 07 school
year, I had to act fast. I decided to search the internet for a school.
The first school to appear was Beachbrook. I met with Joan, who is the
director, and she gave me an overview of the school. After
consideration, I decided to enroll my son in the school. When he first
attended the school he did not communicate with anyone. He did not make
eye contact or answer to his name. The only form of communication was
pointing his finger. It was heartbreaking to see this. Since I had
confidence in the school, I felt that he was going to get the best. His
father and I attended meetings and really understanding everything
Beachbrook had to offer. I remember calling daily because I was
nervous, but I had to realize that I had to give my son and school a
chance. This was the 2007-2008 school year.
2008-2009 is bittersweet because my son is
graduating from the school. I am really going to miss this school. It
seems like yesterday that I was looking around Beachbrook on the
internet. Well, my son is 4 (turning 5 this summer) and I have to say
that he is
1) Speaking and responding to his name.
2) Asking and responding to questions
3) Knows his colors, shapes
4) He knows the difference between boys and girls
I know these achievements seem minor to others, but when you are told
that your child is delayed and will not amount to anything, these
achievements are important to his family and the school. I am really
going to miss this school and everything that they have done. They gave
my son and I a chance and hope.
Kenneth's Mother
I am very happy that Beachbrook provides this excellent educational
experience for my child learned a lot of educational facts. I hope that
Beachbrook continues to help the children in the future like it did

Before my son started Beachbrook Nursery it was
hard to understand why he threw such frequent tantrums. Thanks to the
wonderful staff at Beachbrook and their hands on approach, there has
been a lot of improvement in my son’s behavior. The program structure
at Beachbrook Nursery has also helped me understand my son’s needs and
how to deal with them. My son graduates this year and it is very sad to
see him leave such a great place and such wonderful teachers.

I would like to take the opportunity to thank Dr.
Joan for accepting my son. And thank you all the teachers and staff.
You’re like a family to my son. My son attended Beachbrook Nursery
School from February 07 until present May 09. My son has changed so
much. He’s now able to use 6 word sentences Although his sentences are
not in order most of the time, I can at least understand his needs and
feelings. I am sad because this is the last year he will stay at
Beachbrook. At the same time I am excited to have Brandon going to
kindergarten. Not knowing whether or not he is going to like his new
school. Anyway, thank you very much for all your hard work. My son and
I will always remember Beachbrook.

Greetings!
I have immense pleasure in writing these few words that all of you had
worked so hard in educating and training my son Zaid Shehyar and
providing a very good and friendly atmosphere of learning which would
have been a hard task for me at home. You have also taught him good
manners and discipline which would serve as the guiding principles in
his future. I do appreciate all your concern for his physical
well-being through sports and games.
I, and all of my family members are very much
thankful for your total attention towards my child and I expect the
same treatment to the other students who will be joining your school.
There is no doubt that your school is the excellent one in providing
elementary education and I wish that you reach new heights of
excellence in the future.
In conclusion, I thank you all at Beachbrook

school. Thank you.

checking what each child needs. Also, Dr. Joan is understanding to all
children and she has parents meetings every other week. These meetings
had the parents and Dr. Joan talking about different subjects with open
minds. This is a kind of parent counseling. She is giving very good
advice. I’d like many more parents to join this meeting. Thank you very
much.

I would like to thank Beachbrook for educating my
child, Kamya Sharpe. Kamya was not able to run without falling. Her
speech was limited. Now she is able to ride a bike, speak very well,
and run without falling. She knows numbers now and is very well taught.
Beachbrook has excellent teachers. I would recommend any child to
attend this school- and Joan is the best director I have ever talked
with. Thank you.

Thank you for the outstanding educational
experience which you have provided my sons, Pardeep and Hemant. When
Pardeep and Hemant were small, they had severe behavioral problems.
Pardeep would throw himself on the floor or street and refuse to walk.
Hemant would fight and scratch. I was so happy and relieved when Joan
Prideaux gave them a chance to become educated. Dr. Prideaux and her
staff worked with my sons until they were ready for public school. It
is due to the patience, love, and education at Beachbrook that my sons
have achieved important progress.

We the parents of Faizaan Ali feel very much
satisfied by the service provided by the Beachbrook Nursery School.
Since our son Faizaan Ali started going to Beachbrook Nursery School we
noticed that he has improved a lot, and the teaching method at
Beachbrook School is excellent and unique. Because of the excellent
teaching method now our son Faizaan is getting mixed with other
children and our relatives. We also noticed remarkable differences in
his behavior, now he is playing and doing better in all other things
like other children. Because of all this we are very much thankful to
Beachbrook Nursery School.

Hello
Dr Joan Prideaux,
I
wanted to touch base with you and say thank you for helping me with
Zenobia. I have spoken to my family in reference to what we talked
about. We are working hard with her. I have truly seen a difference
within just the last two days...Thank you again.
I
want to say thank you as well for the safety of Zenobia. I have never
been worried about her safety while being at Beachbrook. Peace of
mind...Priceless!
Beachbrook
Nursery School is a wonderful, wonderful school. The staff. The
teachers. Dr. Joan Prideaux are all great. True professionals that
work with the family and the child. They have provided my family with
the skills and understanding needed to help with my daughter's growth
and development. My
daughter is very happy at Beachbrook. She has developed confidence in
herself. She is learning social skills. She sings all the time. Her
motor skills have developed greatly. She is able to run and jump. She
is a very happy girl. I am a happy mother.
I
am truly blessed to have found Beachbrook Nursery School. I recommend
for any parent that has a child with special needs that they consider
Beachbrook.
Thank
you Beachbrook!

I
would like to thank Beachbrook for all that they have done for my
daughter Samantha. She has become outgoing, and has made progress in
many areas including her speech.
Beachbrook
has been a second family to her as well as even to myself. A few
years ago another daughter attended Beachbrook as well, and so I've
had years of knowledge of how they work with children, and I've even
used their techniques at home with my other kids as well...and it
works!
Throughout
the years Beachbrook has given not only help and support to my kids,
but also hope to me as well.
Thank
you Beachbrook, again, for all that you have done and continue to do.

Beachbrook
has been a blessing to my family. Before my son, Lucas Rosa, attended
Beachbrook he had difficulty speaking. His teacher and staff took
special time with Lucas. He was treated like a prince. They
understood what Lucas' problems were, and they took the time, and had
the patience and
will to
help him grow and develop. I noticed a great change in Lucas' speech
after only a couple of months, and for that I'm greatly thankful. Now
he speaks so well! My family and I will be forever thankful for the
teachers and staff at Beachbrook.

My
son has attended Beachbrook's half-day Program for a full school
year. During that time, the positive changes I have seen in him so
far are tremendous. We could not understand much of what he was
saying before, and now he can speak very clearly and express himself.
I
noticed a huge improvement in his social skills as well.
Everyone
at Beachbrook is supportive, and they genuinely care about my son, as
well as my whole family. I have received excellent advice and
suggestions. Beachbrook has not only helped Jake, the caring and
kindness has helped us become a better family. We are blessed and I
am so grateful for this experience.

Since
Miles has started going to Beachbrook, he accomplished a lot. He's
talking a lot more, and putting his words together. And when Miles
comes home he's always excited and wants to show me the work he did
in school. I would say Beachbrook has helped Miles come a long way
and every day my son comes home he has learned something new and
likes to talk about what he did in school.

Whenever
Beachbrook comes to my mind, I think of nothing but positive things
to say. When my son first started school he couldn't speak as well as
other kids his age, and had a few behavioral problems. As time passed
I started to see a huge change in son. My son can now talk on the
level of other kids his age, and I think even better. His behavior
has improved as well.
Beachbrook
spent quality time with my son and helped him improve in all areas of
their expertise. My son Jeffrey can have a conversation now with me
unlike other kids his age. There is clarity in his words, and he can
also repeat big words and form them into a sentence. He takes his
time when he speaks and doesn't rush through it and mess up and start
over like he used to.
Jeffrey’s
behavior was also an issue. He used to throw things and throw
tantrums and now he's more calm and talks about his feelings instead
of acting out.
I
am so happy I decided to send my son to Beachbrook. It was the best
thing I could've ever done. I thank all the teachers and staff for
making my son's time at Beachbrook nothing but pleasant and
productive.
Jeffrey
wishes he could still stay in Beachbrook and so do I. Although we
have to say goodbye, we will take with us great memories, knowledge
and skills with us and apply them to the future.
Thank
you Beachbrook!
P.S.
I am especially grateful to all the Teachers in the Blue Room who
worked closely with my son. Barbara, Jeffrey Loves You and wishes he
could have You Forever!!

of all we thank Dr Joan, teachers and staff at Beachbrook for an
excellent job and service they’ve provided our child, Vicente; and
for the rewarding outcome, as well as the progress he has made from
the beginning until now, with such promise for the future.
The
education provided by Beachbrook has made a big difference. Our
child's social and emotional development is better, especially his
lack of speech has improved tremendously.
Individual
speech and occupational therapy sessions were very helpful. We now
can communicate with our child, and he with us.
As

Beachbrook
Nursery School is a great institution and a life saver for myself and
my son Jamir. I remember sending Jamir to P.S.----, the classes were
big and Jamir just didn't fit in, He had challenges that the school
could not solve and Beachbrook was recommended to me. I remember
meeting Dr Joan Prideaux and right away I knew this was the right
school for my son.
Her
insight into the needs of kids is great, she trained her staff
personally. Jamir is now a complete child doing everything normally
and I am very proud of him and also of what this great institution
has done for him.

Wow”,

Joan Prideaux and her staff are wonderful people. From the first time
I met them they have all been very supportive, each in their own

I
have never contacted Beachbrook and not been able to get help in any
area that I needed it in. Joan Prideaux and her staff are always
available to help solve any problems you might have, in or out of
Beachbrook.
I
see so much progress that my child is exhibiting since I've come to
know Beachbrook. But my special memories will be the one on one time
in the classroom with my child on Parent Day- followed by the great
discussions about my child's needs and how to help her grow and
develop at Parent Meetings.

Very Quiet And Shy. Now She Has Blossomed Into a More Friendly, Playful

My wife and I remember the first time we visited Beachbrook. After
meeting with Dr Joan we knew we weren't the only parents who had a very
active child with learning disabilities.
She was not surprised about our situation, but instead she was right
there and told us then what needed to be done for our son in order to
improve his learning skills.
We worried in the beginning because he never spent a day away from us,
but now he just loves everyone thanks to their love and care.
Thank you for being there for Him and Us. Thank you for giving of your time to teach our son using your best effort.
We are very pleased with the results. His speech just gets better and
better. So is his behavior. That's how we can tell excellent work was
done.
This is just the beginning, but we know more about being parents now, thanks to all the support and Excellent work.

Hi! My name is Bahta.
My son Budak has been attending Beachbrook Nursery School for
about four months. I am so happy that I have chosen this school.
I was nervous and scared to have my son go to school. Day after day
seeing a big smile on his face and listening to his positive thoughts
about himself like, " I am a smart boy mommy, " and seeing and
listening to all the new things that he learns in school, I became at
ease.
Thank you Dr Joan for having this school and for giving us the
