For preschool/day care, The Campus at Kids First on Kemper Rd. is phenomenal! Tuition includes tons of physical activity- gymnastics, soccer, basketball, yoga, dance classes. And the teachers are top notch. We've had 2 boys there for almost 4 years. For pediatricians, Northeast Cincinnati Pediatrics are some of the best in the area. They have evening and Saturday hours so easy to get into for sick visits. Good luck with the move!
We go to Muddy Creek ped and see Dr Hable and Torel (nurse practitioner). There's tons to do for activities around here. We are member of Mason Community center and have been for 9 yrs. They have indoor pool, outdoor pool for summer. They offer other activities at an extra cost, and the child care there, if you want to work out, is awesome! Welcome to Mason!

Group Health Dr Kreski our great granddaughter goes to he’s amazing. Our granddaughter saw him as a child too. Dr Samuel obgyn is also at group health. The Goddard in Mason day care.
Bari M. replied:
Springdale Mason Pediatrics imho is the very best. And they have awesome evening and weekend hours because that's when you really need them.
Gretchen S. replied:
Muddy Creek Pediatrics (we see Dr O'Malley), Group Health for OBGYN (I love Dr Samol), and the Goddard School - Mason/Deerfield is great!:)
Check out the Education and Enrichment section on masonmetu.com for info about activities and preschools.
Alaina D. replied:
Group Health Mason for pediatrician. All of the doctors are great. And I have been a maternity nurse for a long time and Dr. James Buckreus at UC physicians west Chester is the best doctor I have worked with! He delivers at West Chester Hospital. Go there for a tour, it's beautiful...and the nurses are great too

Welcome to Mason! Creative Tots Mason is awesome, especially since they have a toddler program and they go up through Pre-K. Emilie Parry is the owner and director.

Welcome to Cincinnati!! I had two active boys a year apart. For preschool through kindergarten I sent them to the Campus at Kids First.

We use Kiddie Academy for daycare/preschool. I know that they do have openings available. I have to second Northeast Cincinnati Pediatrics above. We've been seeing Dr Baldwin for 7 years now and wouldn't go anywhere else!!! They have evening and Saturday hours and two offices that are pretty close. As far as OBGYN I see Dr Kristen Magner with Christ Hospital. They have an office locally now and she's been wonderful! Others in the same practice are great as well and they are flexible with hours too.
Jen H. replied:
Highly recommend All About Kids in Mason. Both of my boys go there and we absolutely love it. I have a 3 year old (in Pre K there) and a 5 month old. I love they are both in the same building. They also bus to Kings and Mason schools! We also go to Northeast Pediatrics right around the corner in Landen. We see Dr. Kelleher or Dr. Evans. As for an OB I go to Seven Hills. Dr. Schutte delivered both of my boys. One at Christ and one at Bethesda North.

- I went to the Children's House(http://www.thechildrenshouseonline.com/montgomery.php) off of Montgomery Rd. Lots of fun, learned plenty. They have a really nice curriculum that revolves around 8-week units. I absolutely loved it there and I'd highly recommend them. - I also went to the Sunshine House (http://www.sunshinehouse.com) that's in the same plaza/area as the UDF on Mason-Montgomery, but I left I got beaten up with building blocks by the other kids. The staff was wonderful from what I remember though.

Skip Rainbow Child Center, we pulled my daughter after a few days. She dreaded going and I took it as an adjustment period until I stayed and watched what went down. The kids were on the playground and the teacher literally told my daughter to go away and figure it out. Because apparently that's what you tell a two year old! I toured the Sunshine house and was put off by the classrooms. No windows to look into the room and the rooms were severely dated. Currently at Kids R Kids and kids like it.
Considering transitioning my daughter from full daycare to half day preschool. any recommendations on a christian preschool East of Mason closer to Symmes Township?
