What Parents Say
Little Hearts Learning Center (Safari Kid) receives mostly positive reviews praising staff quality, curriculum, and student development. However, one detailed negative review indicates concerns about handling energetic or non-compliant children through isolation rather than engagement and support.
My son Gautam, went to safari Kid preschool since from the age of 2, and had the most wonderful experience. He developed so many skills going to this school, he became very social, advanced in academics and a confident, independent little boy. .. The team of the teachers there are very caring, supportive and loving to the kids and greet us with the biggest smile every morning. I would highly recommend this school to anyone who is looking for a preschool for their child.
My honest feedback: This school is great only if your kid is quite (like a soft toy/teddy bear) and he/she is in the daycare from the time kid was born. If your kid is little bit energetic, they keep complaining that he/she is running around the class, pushing others, disturbing class etc. At the same time no teachers make efforts to help kid or have kid participate in the curriculum activities instead they put the kid in the timeout/different room for the entire school time. This means they don't learn or do anything for the course and parents simply paying the tuition fee that's all. In my case, I was told my son was hyper, do not listen and they asked me to consult doctor. He went there from Oct 2017 - Feb 2018(I should have removed earlier as safari-kid was not helping him instead it was damaging my kid's emotional feelings... he use to ask me why my teacher(s) do not tell me good morning.. why she is not letting me sit in the circle time etc.. that means they weren't able to convey him that why he was not included. I believe actual class teachers do not have proper training). He didn't learn anything. He was in the same state as he was prior to joining Safari Kid. He use to explain what was happening in the school that he was put in a different room/corner and play with separate toy he likes (toy car he likes the most). I then put him in a different preschool in Dublin from Aug 2018 with the same ratio of 1 or 2 teacher(s) for 12-14 kids. I am so impressed with the new school teachers that they put-in so much efforts to convince him through rewarding and other various technics (very much thankful to new preschool teachers). He finished from the new preschool in May 2019. My son was able to read/write A-Z, a-z, 1-100, his first name, last name along with reading most words with two or three characters. Also, he sings around 25-30 songs, tells short stories... I am very grateful to the new school teachers. If any of your kids are in the same situation, please email me. My son now started going to Kindergarten from Aug 12th. His public school teacher says, he does good job and he is ahead of many kids in his class. Also, she asked him to prepare a very first student as high flyer in the class for entire week (next week). Thanks again to the last preschool teachers.
We have used Safari kids for the last 3 years. This is a great After-School for my son. They are able to arrange pick up from local schools and take them to the facility where they keep the kids engaged with curriculum. They are closely located to Kumon, Music and beyond, and Martial Arts and pick up and drop off the kids at the suitable times. In Summer they keep the place open for the whole day. They offer a mix of love and discipline and keep the kids better behaved with a gentle hand. Overall this facility has worked very well for me. I wish they had a bigger play area for the kids. Love working with Ms Sheetal, Ms Anita, Ms Neha, Ms Swapna and Ms Hema for feedback and care everyday.
My child enjoyed Safari Kid a lot and made very good friends. She also became more confident and her overall personality improved after starting SK. I recommend Safari Kid.
Love this place. The teachers and the staff are amazing. They have a very good curriculum for kids and my daughter totally loves it. I would recommend this as a after care for their kids any day over other places that charge around the same or sometimes even more than what Safari Kid charge.
