St. James Warm Hearts has mixed reviews with strong polarization between parents.

Negative reviewers report serious concerns about cleanliness, staff neglect, inadequate diaper changes, and poor communication with parents.
Four of my grandchildren attended St. James Warm Hearts and loved it. They were very well cared for. So many things have been upgraded over the 15 years open. There is well trained staff and great interactions with children. I would highly recommend.
Our daughter loves going here and the staff do such an amazing job with her. There is always a good ratio of staff to children so the kids get personal attention. Breakfast, lunch, and a snack are all provided. The staff provide a nice balance of learning and play and up and down time. My daughter is always bringing home fun art and craft projects. We just couldn't imagine having her any where else. In fact, when we moved out of Bellevue to Council Bluffs, my wife and I agreed to continue driving the distance each day so that our daughter could keep going here.
Absolutely awful! Do not allow the “religious” name to fool you. The place is filthy and the staff are undertrained. You get what you pay for. We took our son out after a month and a half. We also have documented multiple situations and will be reporting them to DHHS (the state). From willful neglect to being absentminded. We even donated things to help update the operation and they used some of it and disregarded the other things because they didn’t understand how to operate them. It hurts my heart that, I allowed my son to endure that for a month and a half.
My daughter has been with them 5 days a week since Aug of 2020 and will continue to do so till kindergarten. The staff goes above and beyond for her. They even helped get her potty trained! The teachers are wonderful and very welcoming. I have had zero issues.
If I could give this daycare no stars or negative stars I would. If your looking for a daycare, stay away from this one. If they notice something concerning to them they will call CPS about It and report it to them not call the parents of the child. My daughter has been going there since November of 2017 and yesterday my daughter supposedly didn't urinate all day and my daughter is supposedly dirty and goes to daycare with the same diaper on she had the night before according to them when my daughter is bathed every day and every night and when she asks for a bath. My daughter is changed no matter what even if she only urinated twice I change her no matter what. There are children at that daycare that are way more dirty than my daughter, I walked pasted a little boy when I was in there getting my daughter with my husband and he smelled like cigarettes, and Body Oder. When we picked my daughter up yesterday from daycare and went straight home her diaper was full of pee(it was starting to leak through to her clothes) and poop (that was almost up her back). So again if your looking for a daycare stay away from this one unless you want to be questioned by CPS.
