What Parents Say
Happy Day Preschool receives mixed reviews. Parents with positive experiences praise the small facility atmosphere, dedicated teachers, strong communication, and engaging activities, particularly for the preschool and VPK programs. However, negative reviews cite serious concerns about summer camp operations, including inadequate supervision, age-inappropriate grouping, bullying incidents, and unresponsive staff.
My daughter has been attending this school for almost a year now and has been welcomed by all of the teachers. She’s very vocal about what she loves and doesn’t care for, and she ALWAYS comes home rattling on about her friends at school and her teachers and how much fun she had. The school is very good at communicating how my daughter is doing, if she’s not feeling well, all the fun activities and events they plan — the director and the teachers really go all out here. The school is small, which creates a comfortable environment for myself as a parent to know that my daughter is well looked after, and my daughter feels safe and happy in her classroom with the BEST teachers — especially Ms. Reyes and Ms. Maynard! I was very nervous about the transition to preschool, but we could not be happier with Happy Day.
They don't even deserve a star but only way I could post a review. It's literally a circus zoo for summer camp. The older kids bully the younger ones. They have 5-12 ages grouped together which should not be allowed. I was never informed of my child getting bullied and punched and kicked in the face. My child had multiple bruises in just a few weeks of him attending there. I removed him immediately once he told me his fear of not wanting to go back. I would not recommend this place to anyone. They never follow up with you when they say they will. They are not truthful on what they say either. I truly have made the best decision on putting my child in Karate to eliminate the bad habits he created there.
I have been a teacher here for almost 7 years. It's a great smaller facility fit for all children. I like how we have many activities for our children. I enjoy working at Happy Day everyday!
Happy Day Preschool's VPK program is amazing!!! Ms. Lane and her team take educating children seriously and put 100% of themselves into their job. Ms. Lane, Ms. Anderson, Ms. Derousche and Ms. Hicks are all very dedicated and wonderful people. I would recommend Happy Day Preschool's VPK program to anyone!!
My son is in the one year old room. Mrs. Reyes is an awesome teacher very loving and caring.
