The owner disliked our family because I asked about how fall is celebrated. My daughter was a bit rambunctious so she was sent home a lot. She said all she remembers is that she would talk during videos and naps and that was all. She had issues with hitting that she learned at a previous daycare but we were working on it. She had a hard time napping and that was a huge issue also. I found out my daughter was being held down on her mat. Also she was called a liar by the owner when she told us boys were putting wood chips down her pants. She's been traumatized by this and still cries about it and she is 11. She also told most of the time when they put the kids outside they were unsupervised. This was a while ago but wanted to put my experience online just in case. Beware.

Our son has been attending school here for almost 3 years now. We love the friendly, caring teachers and all the fun extras he's been able to experience (tumble bus and soccer). The size and location is perfect for us! And they've helped us raise a kind, respectful, and smart little boy so far :)

Our son has been at Jacob Academy since he was 6 weeks old until now-almost 4 years old. He has learned so much in every age/room and with every amazing teacher! He loves it here so much and some days it's hard to get him to leave :)
