What Parents Say
Meadowbrook has highly polarized reviews. Long-term families praise warm, caring staff, affordability, and a family-like environment. However, multiple recent reviews raise serious concerns about unprofessional and rude staff behavior, unsafe handling of toddlers, inadequate feeding, and allegations of physical discipline.
I’m very disappointed with the experience my 19-month-old baby had at this childcare. This was her first daycare, and while the owner’s daughter was kind, gentle, and took good care of my baby during the first week, things changed completely when the older lady started taking care of her. The older lady was extremely rude and unprofessional. One day, I saw her lift my baby hanging in her hand in a very unsafe and frightening way. When I questioned her, she said my baby “kicked her,” which is unacceptable as a justification for handling a toddler like that. My baby also started getting scared of her, which is heartbreaking for any parent to see. They also did not give my baby enough food, despite me sending everything she needed. I could clearly notice she was returning home hungry. Overall, this daycare made me feel unsafe and uncomfortable leaving my child there. I absolutely do not recommend this childcare to any parent looking for a safe, caring, and respectful environment for their little one.
I would give it Zero star if I could. My 2 yo daughter who is speech delay was in the preschool program. The teacher I think her name is Chelsea is very nice. The two older ladies are very rude, unprofessional and should not be working with kids. Not sure whether they treat her that way due to her skin color or difficulty speaking. You should be able to treat every kid with kindness whether they black or white, can articulate or not. This place has to do better. I found a preschool where she’s thriving. I should’ve followed my instincts and never put her in that so called preschool.
My son has been attending Meadowbrook for 3 years and has loved it. The staff are warm and inviting and always willing to go above and beyond for my family. They are probably the most affordable child care in the county. I love the family feel of this center and love all the small holiday activities and fun experiences they provide.
My son has been coming here for nearly 3 years ! Amazing and caring staff , always something new going on , the kids never get bored ! We will miss it when it’s time to leave !
This place is such a wonderful close environment for children. The one on one time that the teachers give to the children here is top notch! A+. My two boys LOVE it here!
