My oldest son has been going to this daycare since 2019 and my 2 other kids have been going since they turned 6 weeks old. I have always been either a full-time employee or a full-time student. I have trusted this facility with the care of my children, and I haven't had a negative experience with them in the 5 years my children have been going here. As with most childcare centers, there is almost always a conflict among children, and I believe that it is handled efficiently and with care. I love the staff here and the app that allows me to get real time updates about my kids and photos of them as well.
My daughter attended summer of 2021-fall of 2023. The one and two year old class rooms were good. But when she transferred to the 3s, it was severely downhill. My daughter didn’t want to go to school anymore. I go off early one day and went to pick her up about an hour past nap, she was still laying on her cot, she was potty trained- but covered in poop and pee….. when I was changing her in from of the teacher, she seemed completely unbothered. I asked for immediate transfer to a different classroom from the director, Jennifer. She was moved, but a couple weeks later that teacher disappeared and she was back with the previous one without any communication from the school to me. I witnessed teachers yelling at the 3 year olds, and being degrading. She came home daily covered in fire ant bites. I called a daycare she was on a waitlist for and fortunately they got me in immediately when I told them I couldn’t bare leaving my child at this school anymore. I have taken far too long to write this review, I’m not sure if it has changed since. But please beware, there are much better daycares with teachers that genuinely care for your children. Keep searching.
My twin grandsons have attended this facility for the past 2yrs and they love love love their teachers. I trust the care that is given to them; I know they will be well cared for and loved. The teachers get down on their level to talk and play with them. They come home with crafts they have done that day or information on something new they have learned. The boys are always in a good mood when I pick them up and give the teachers hugs before they will leave. The room is always clean and there are lots of different stations for the children to play at plus table play - puzzles, scissors and paper, play dough etc. Notices are sent home each day so you know if they had a good day or ate their lunch, how they slept etc. Thank you to the teachers for their patients, kindness, love and endurance.
I was hesitant for my wife to return to work after the birth of our second son, because I wasn't quite confident in the daycare system. However, the two year old room and the infant/creeper rooms have been wonderful to our sons. My two year old always has art projects come home and he learns exciting things like "we get milk from cow udders" (his newest fascination). Our youngest is always happy to see his teachers, so I know they have a good time together while he's there. I highly recommend this facility to any hesitant parents out there.
My daughters just started there last week, so far I LOVE it!! All the teachers are amazing! My youngest daughter is in the infant room and she loves Ms. Jennifer that is in there! All the staff is always friendly and willing to help. I was so nervous to send my daughters to daycare, they have never been before. But after getting a tour of the faucility, I am at ease knowing my girls are in good hands when they can't be with mommy!
