What Parents Say
Dawn's Early Light Inc receives mixed reviews with most parents praising the caring staff, engaging activities, and strong educational curriculum that prepares children for kindergarten. However, some parents report significant concerns including safety issues with unlocked cabinets, inconsistent staff behavior, payment problems, and inadequate response to child distress.
Constant issues with either payment or staff. Staff is also keen to cause issues with families by giving different reasons as to why something happened. The last inspector noted that cabinets remained unlocked when they should be locked and even left a key in a lock that any child could grab. When this was pointed out to the supervisor she ignored it until the inspector pulled out the key and gave it to her. Sadly this is one of the few daycares around otherwise they would not see the business they get.
My son has been attending Dawn’s for almost 3 years and I absolutely love them! The teachers are all loving and attentive to the children. They have a variety of activities that are extremely engaging and keep my child excited about going to school. He is being well prepared for kindergarten with their curriculum. I am so happy with my decision to send him here.
My kid is in the toddler (2-3) room and she's thriving. Ms. Kristin and Ms. Miranda are amazing (actually, all of the teachers are) and they really work with the kids. Everyday they set up all sorts of fun projects and activities for the kids. Although YMMV, my 2.5 year old already knows and can recognize all of her letters (uppercase), can count to 30, can recognize number 1-10, and can spell her name. I can tell you with 100% certainty that this isn't done at home; she won't sit still for me at home. My little comes home happy and trots off to her classroom without fuss. I'm just really impressed with the teachers and really appreciate all of their hard work.
My children have been attending Dawns Early Light for over 5 years. Dawns Early Light provides a structured, loving and educational atmosphere that is implemented on all children from the infant stage to Pre K. The faculty are also very caring and friendly with both students and parents. They have taken extra precautions to ensure the safety and well being of students is there number one priority. My husband and I are at ease knowing our children are well cared for at Dawns Early Light!
2 of my daughters went to the PF location starting at 3 and 4, somewhere around there. They both now work at the PF location. I've also had 3 grandkids there, 1 still there, and have never had an issue. They have THE BEST preschool program you could ask for.
