My kids are new bus riders and their bus stop happens to be the driveway of this childcare facility. Today was their first day riding. The road in front of them is fairly busy so I had my 5 and 10 year old standing by the fence, on the road side, away from the road for safety reasons. This afternoon we were notified that my children weren’t allowed to wait on their property because they’re not registered as attendees. We were told they must wait by the mailbox, in the bushes, a foot away from the road. For a facility that’s supposed to pride themselves in child safety and care, they sure don’t show it. Unless you’re giving them money of course.
I searched high and low to find a gem like this school for my daughter. They have always been extremely engaging and flexible with our needs and schedule. My 4.5 yr old has been here since she was 2.5 years from the moment she was potty trained. Miss Melody is sooo wonderful and caring and all the kids adore her. Miss Heather is so welcoming and accommodating and always leading with child development in mind. I'm so sad that my daughter has to go to a new school for kindergarten next year. I know these kids are in great hands when they're here. 🩷
Our child went here for about a year. Not recommended for any children with a disability or special needs. The owner Heather is condescending. Smells like urine, you are told what to pack for lunches, forced naps, even for older children. It might work for your child but beware.
