Gateway Academy

This review is long overdue 🥲 My daughter began attending Gateway Academy in January 2024. It was very hard on both of us at first. We were going through a difficult time, and the thought of leaving her with anyone other than family for such a long time (6:30am-5:30pm) was the scariest feeling for both of us. Luckily, they had an app where they sent pictures often and communicated when needed. Not only did her teachers (Ms. Edith and Mrs. Letty) make it such an amazing and comforting experience for both of us, but the whole staff 🥹 they really do it for the kids. Ms. Denise was there for her in the morning on her first day, so welcoming ❤️. I will never forget that on her second day of school, it was so hard to leave her. we both cried, but the amount of relief that came over me when I saw a picture Mr. Roberts sent of Ms. Breanna holding and consoling my baby 🥹❤️ i can't express how grateful I am. It is forever in my heart. Ms. Breanna and Ms. Carla were always there for her and other students in the mornings, always engaging with them with blocks or other activities. When we would first walk in, We were always greeted by Ms. Stella, who was always so nice, often times I would see her comforting a student at the front desk. Her and the staff made it their business to learn each of the students names which in my opinion, made it a much better experience for the kids, making them feel seen. Seeing so many teachers who weren't her teachers acknowledging her by name and taking the time to talk to her every day made it feel so welcoming. Ms. V was also very helpful. Mr. Roberts was so understanding, so welcoming and so selfless. On top of all of these good qualities, I was also impressed by how convenient it was financially compared to other places. It was worth every single penny. My only regret was not finding the school sooner 🥲 it would have saved me so much trouble. I can literally write a 10-page essay on how good the school is and why I recommend it to everyone. I can't express how grateful I am of every single person there, I had to work long hours, and they were present when I couldn't be it still makes me cry to this day. Thank you Gateway Academy ❤️ forever in our hearts. Cristina still asks about everyone 🥹❤️❤️

First of, I'm going to SHINE the LIGHT for GATEWAY ACADEMY. its hands down the best place you could ever take your kids. I've toured every daycare out there to find the perfect one . Nothing beats this place . I literally drive 25 min everyday just to send my babies here. The owner Robert is incredible, humble man. He puts so much money back into this daycare just for the kids happiness. The director Stella is amazing, she's very CLEAN and ORGANIZED . She has all the teachers on board with what the expectations are . They have a strict no Gossip rule amongst each other , which Allows all teachers to have amazing VIBES. My kids love it here. The summer camp is blast . This place feels like a second home to my kids, they love spending their days here. They even try to keep parents updated throughout the day, and send you photos through an app were you can communicate . I recommend this daycare to everyone!

The thing I love most about Gateway Academy is that they have an educational curriculum. I didn't want a daycare, I wanted a school. My daughter has been attending since she was 2.5 y/o and I have been so impressed at the skills she's learned. I'm excited to send my youngest when she turns 2. Great school, great price. I highly recommend 👌
