Learn And Play Preschool Corp.

I'm very comfortable with this preschool. The staff is kind and caring, and my child feels happy and safe there. The environment is clean, friendly, and well-organized. I appreciate the way they communicate and keep me updated. Overall, it's been a great experience and the owner is very nice.

This is the best daycare in the area. The staff is very friendly! Miss Jessica and Mr. Hairs also take time to talk to me, and I see them talking to other parents too! My daughter was put in Miss Shelly room, and I was very nervous about putting her in daycare! Miss Shelly sent us daily pictures and always communicated with us. She always gave us daily feedback! Miss Shelly also gave us tips on how to deal with our daughter, which has helped us out a lot at home. Her classroom is very clean, and my daughter always runs up to give her hugs! We have never picked her up with a dirty diaper. Miss Shelly also takes time to play with the kids and teach them life skills! My daughter is in Miss Samantha room now and she is doing great in her room too! If you are looking for a great daycare don’t hesitate to put your child in this daycare. Our daughter always comes home happy and wakes up in the morning happy to go see Miss Samantha and Miss Shelly. Miss Idelis always say good morning and hugs our daughter in the morning when we drop her off. All the staff seem very friendly. This was not our first choice but it’s our only choice and we can’t wait to put our other daughter in Learn and Play!

When it came time to look for a daycare for my son, I knew right away I wanted to put him at Learn and Play. His sister went there a few years ago, and we had such a great experience. He started in the toddler room with Ms. Sara, who is absolutely amazing at helping with the transition from staying home to starting daycare. My son loved her – she is so kind and caring. Recently, he moved up to the 2-year-old room, and I couldn’t be happier with that transition either. While my son isn’t always happy about going to school (or anywhere mommy isn’t), he always looks for Ms. Shelly. Just this morning, when he didn’t see her through the window, he said, “No find Shelly,” and looked in every door and window saying, “Shelly, are you?” (in his sweet toddler talk). She gives him the perfect mix of comfort, care, and firmness with the rules. I would trust them with my kids time and time again.

If I could leave 0 stars I would. A million reasons why I would not trust these people with my child again. Everything seemed fine in the begging when my son was in the toddler room with miss sara we got plenty of reports notices and daily feed back as soon as the graduated him to the 2 years room his teacher miss shelly was not warm or comforting at all and complained about everything all the time. His first drop off day I carried him in she didn’t introduce herself or anything she snatched my son out of my arms and said you can go and closed the door in my face. I told my husband it was very upsetting and unsettling so we both went for pick up that day and talked to miss jessica in the front office and she told me she would have a talk with her and it wouldn’t happen again. For 2 weeks after dropping him off it was clear Jessica never spoke to her to resolve the issue because I finally put my foot down with her and had to confront her about the behavior myself and tell her it wasn’t appreciated. We would randomly asked to drop off diapers sometimes every 3 days even though we were taking in sleeves from large cases I understand they change diapers every two hours or as needed but there’s no way you should be going through 30 something diapers every 3 days. What it boiled down to ultimately was in the last few months of his time at the school he caught hand foot and mouth which we reported to them and kept him home for the incubation period until the doctor cleared him. When we reported it Jessica acted like it was completely normal and informed me that she would insure “his room would get an extra layer of bleach that day” they also began sending him home 2 to sometimes 3 times a week because he was sleeping too much and called it a safety hazard because they were unable to wake him but yet when my husband or myself would get there our son would be awake. After sending him home several times we put our foot down because they were getting paid weekly for full service but yet call us to pick him up after he had only been there a few hours. When we asked to see footage of our child sleeping that day because they record classroom activities they became aggressive and angry that we were questioning them and told us that they did not have time to deal with us and that we just needed to take our son and leave. The sleep accusations went on for weeks we took our child to the doctor check for imbalances and to get answers. Like myself the doctor could not make since of it either and 50 percent of the time when my child is home on the weekends he rarely takes a nap and sleeps plenty at night except for a few occasions which we would normally keep him home or would let them know if he had a bad night. All his labs came back normal and our sons doctor informed us that if he was falling asleep it was because the sleep was somehow being induced.

Dont bring you child to this place. My 18 month old daughter started at this preschool a month ago. She started having issus biting while at school. I asked the teachers NUMEROUS TIMES if they had any suggestions on correcting this behaviour. They never gave us anything other than wite-ups and suggested try a biting neckless (which didn't work). She wasnt biting at home or around kids outside school, so we were at a loss. After a really bad day of 5 writeup (which dont have any info on them other than she bit a friend), I asked the teachers if she could be kick out for this issue. Never got straight awnser until we got a call the next day that she was dismissed. No corrective action plan, no info on what may be triggering her to bite, no warning that she will be dismissed if it isn't corrected. just go find a different place "we dont have the time or teachers to watch her".
