I’ve had nothing but great services from the children’s courtyard. My youngest son is enrolled. He has been out of a preschool setting for about a year and he was really scared when he got there. His teacher miss Aniyah made me comfortable leaving him in her care after I spent some time with him and her in the classroom before I left. He has a strong attachment to her and feels safe and loved by her. There are other teachers as well who have showed my son the same respect and love and I couldn’t be happier having him go. My son has never been excited to go to school until I enrolled him here. Best school hands down! Amazing staff, amazing teachers!
Love this school! Staff are wonderful.
Will not recommend the children courtyard when my children started in 2022 the staffing were great, the curriculum was great , the staff was caring and loving and less drama . As soon as staffing changed /office staff the place went downhill tremendously, the place is very messy (office staff to be exact ) , kids are consistently sick the food is horrible. They send kids home for any and every little thing. Classrooms were ALWAYS out of ratio . Fees kept going up out of nowhere. They can’t keep no good teachers so they resort to hiring younger adults with no experience and expect them to know what to do it’s just throw them in the classrooms to watch the children. The turnover rate is horrible I was going to do a review a while ago after I contacted HR but HR never contacted me back . So it was important for me to make this review and let families know the important information that should be known before sending your children somewhere which is important. Also a little back story on my situation that resulted me taking my children out of the daycare . My toddler threw up and I was working that day in his classroom I was asked to stay if he was fine but normally he would have to go home. 5 hours later my infant was sick looking flushed , fever, not eating and sleeping alot I go to the bathroom and when I walked pass his class I was notified by the infant teachers that he had a fever and etc. So when the office staff come see what’s going on the infant teacher and I explained that my son was sick so I was asked by the office staff what I was gone do I said take my son home he sick . She walked away and came back with information from another office staff stating I have to take both my babies home 5 hours later because my toddler threw up which was wrong because I was asked to stay when it happen so they were upset that I had to leave and I address the situation and it was a lot of false narratives throwing out the to cover there behinds, the story goes on but I will stop here.
I honestly wouldn’t recommend this school to anyone . My son was only here for 4 months and something told me to watch the cameras. I constantly watched the cameras and have caught the teachers doing inappropriate things on many occasions. I’ve seen teachers treating a girl with Down syndrome very rudely ! One teacher even told me to my face she couldn’t wait till the little girl transfers. I’ve seen teachers aggressively grabbing children and forcing them to lay down . Also yelling at them ! I’ve also walked past 2 young women that worked there stating that they wanted to “beat up” another worker. They never keep the same teacher for long and the children aren’t treated with kindness! If your child goes here , ALWAYS watch the cameras. They also do not do anything about students hitting eachother.
We only had our son in this facility out of desperation for childcare, and our fears of the worst reviews were realized within a few short days of our stay. We pulled our son out after day 3. I'm still unsure who my son's teachers were since we had different ones each day, and the entire center was highly unorganized and dirty. Different schedules each day (4 hour nap time 1 of the days). I watched this go on and had to call the center because a kid had put a blanket over my child's head while sleeping. The teachers don't know your child and don't want to know your child. My high school babysitter is better than the teachers in this school. You are basically paying for parents who want free childcare and pose as teachers. Get your child potty trained and there are so many better, more loving, school like options out there for the money.
