What Parents Say
Fascination Station (reviewed as Great Expectations) has overwhelmingly positive reviews praising staff kindness, cleanliness, and child development focus, though two detailed negative reviews raise serious concerns about management practices, inadequate staffing ratios, and discriminatory treatment of children with special needs.
As first time parents, we were very nervous to put our little one into daycare. That is why we were so happy to find Great Expectations! The teachers were so kind and really put us at ease. Our daughter lights up when she sees the staff and she is always coming home with fun little art projects. We love Great Expectations and couldn't imagine taking our daughter anywhere else!
We had a wonderful experience at Great Expectations. The Latrobe center was able to accommodate my one-year old daughter on short notice, and the staff was incredibly kind and caring. (They were also very patient with me as an emotional, first-time daycare mom!) I felt very comfortable leaving my daughter in their care, and I would absolutely recommend the center to anyone looking for a local daycare.
Great Expectations is a fantastic center. I've been sending my kids here for over 4 years. My kids love going to school each day and they can't say enough about how much they love their teachers. They are always doing fun art projects and my oldest is teaching us new sign language each day.
Our daughter has been attending Great Expectations since she was 6 weeks old. As a parent who is also educated in child development, I was so happy to find a quality child care center who I knew would meet all of my child's developmental needs. Everyone is so friendly and I truly feel like my daughter is loved and I feel comfortable knowing my daughter is in their care.
We love Great Expectations in Latrobe. When I pick up my kids after a long day, they are always happy and smiling. The staff are so friendly and the administrators are very accommodating if we have a last minute schedule change. My oldest attends preschool and it is great to see how quickly she is learning new things. A very cheerful, positive atmosphere.
