What Parents Say
Northern Lights Preschool receives overwhelmingly positive feedback from parents, with staff consistently praised for being caring, patient, and engaging. Children show developmental progress in speech, academics, and social-emotional skills, and parents appreciate the clean facility, in-room cameras, quality meals, and reasonable pricing.
I would never recommend this daycare to any parent who truly cares about their child’s well-being. They refused to let my child in just two minutes after their 10 a.m. policy — no understanding, no compassion, nothing. On top of that, they rarely seem to feed my child properly, and every time I walk in, the whole place smells like dirty, hot diapers. It’s honestly disgusting. What’s even worse is that the staff always seem unorganized — half the time, they don’t even seem to know exactly where my child is or what they’re doing. That’s terrifying for a parent. If you’re looking for a clean, safe, and caring environment for your child, stay far away from Northernlights Daycare.
My daughter has been attending here for a few months now. When she started she was delayed in talking but now has started communicating so much from the interaction there. They are extremely patient and kind with her and have been so good at potty training. Shocked about the negative reviews because the teachers are great there. She’s always coming home with arts and crafts, and I’ve walked in to the teachers reading and interacting with them. They also have cameras in all the rooms which makes me feel so much more comfortable. Another bonus is they’re also very clean and consistently open
One of the best preschool center my kids have ever went to. They were always so miserable other places. It took them little time but they absolutely love the teachers and coming to preschool now. Thank you for all you do staff at northern lights preschool :-)
ONLY CARE ABOUT MONEY! This daycare (not a school unless you pay extra) only cares about one thing! MONEY! They charge full time rates for part time hours. They never give credit even when substantial hours are missed but always charge for everything possible. They don’t care about how long a student has been there or how good of a client you are. They want every dime they can get. Also, be very cautious as there are constantly drug addicts hanging around the place with the Bingo hall being right there. Made us feel very unsafe. Update: after considerable research, there are numerous providers in the area who provide part time care at a fraction of the cost. I have found five providers in the same vicinity who charge $200-$300 LESS per month. For single parents or parents who struggle with the high cost of care - this provider in my experience and opinion, isn’t worth it. They make me sick.
Staff are friendly and nice and very outgoing, my kids go here and they both love to come to school, I have had trust issues with having my kids go to daycare, at first it was rough but they came around and just loved their teachers and going to daycare, Everyday when my kids are picked up the first thing (besides hi dad or mom) my daughter would say is “I like my teacher”, she would sing, count and dance to show what she learned and did at school, our son has progressed a whole with writing his name and coloring and how he cuts paper and uses scissors. I am happy they are here at Northernlights preschool because my kids are happy with going here. I rated 5 stars because my kids are happy here and they love coming school and love their teachers.
