Laura Vasquez, mother of a 6-month-old infant enrolled at SMG Clubhouse, shared her gratitude for the center after recently relocating to Quakertown from New York. “With no family in the area, I’m so thankful to have found SMG Clubhouse,” she said. “The teachers here are wonderful, they consistently provide a safe, loving, and developmentally appropriate environment for my baby, which enables me to go to work and pursue my doctorate degree.”
Destiny Richey, a teacher at SMG Clubhouse, reflected on the center’s impact: “What makes SMG Clubhouse so special is the way it uplifts people–staff, families, and most importantly, the children. It’s a place where passion meets purpose, where hard work is matched with joy, and where every contribution matters. SMG Clubhouse creates a positive ripple effect, nurturing the next generation and supporting those who guide them.”
Jackie Groetsch of First Up, Champions of Early Childhood, congratulated Syieda Logan for her outstanding leadership and unwavering commitment to high-quality early education. She recognized Syieda’s dedication to creating a nurturing environment that supports children’s learning, offers families peace of mind as they pursue work and education, and provides meaningful employment and mentorship for teaching staff. “With only 40% of child care programs in Bucks County rated as STAR 4, it’s truly remarkable that you and your team have embedded the best practices needed to achieve this distinction in less than a year since opening. That’s an extraordinary accomplishment to be very proud of.”
