The staff and the owner are amazing! Every day when dropping off or picking up my daughter, the teachers make sure to communicate with me and they make us feel welcomed. My daughter loves it there. I would definitely recommend this school! My daughter has learned so much from numbers, to colors to letters even learning a little bit of Spanish. This school is amazing.
Excellent school. Teachers and owner go out of their way to make you feel at home. Our Son received an A+ education and is now well ahead of his age level. Teachers have been with the school for years and years, some decades. Not the typical turnover in staff that we have seen at other day care provided schools. Very thankful for Ms Sonja the owner, Ms Kay the 1-2 year teacher, Ms Anna the 3-4 Teacher and Ms Wanda the VPK teacher. We will miss this school next year when our son goes to Kindergarten, but know he will be prepared academically as well as socially.
There's no better feeling than knowing that the people in charge of caring for your children, actually care about your children! My 3 year old son is happy going to school, in the mornings, he's eager to open the front door and give his teacher (Ms. Ana) hugs. The director, Ms. Sonia, is one of the kindest, sweetest people you will ever meet. If you're looking for a loving, fun and safe daycare for your child, look no further! You won't be disappointed.
If I could give this school a zero/ no stars I would. When we first started, the 2 year old classroom teacher was wonderful my daughter had for a year and then she left because she was very unhappy there. The next year I encountered many problems with this school with poor care provided and confusing information about days the school closed, etc. The owner actually yelled at me violently in front of all the children and that was enough for me. They are very unprofessional and lack the patience and love needed to take care of children. My daughter began to cry every day when going there and I could feel something was not right. As soon as I removed her and started her in another school she was very happy. I wish I had done it sooner. Do not take your children here. Trust me, you will regret it. Most parents here are unaware of what goes on and how many children are left unsupervised.
The worse daycare EVER! Do NOT BRING YOUR BABYS HERE IF YOU LOVE YOUR CHILDREN. The owner is an elder lady that who should be retired. Shes not in top of the daycare/ busniess. The teacher did something to my Daugther. I cant say much cause we reported it and im sueing. In front of the parents the staff act nice but when you leave they treat your children wrong. The staff yell alot. Teachers leave your kids hands & noses dirty. They dont care. The owner has very slow sloppy staff. Very unprofessional daycare. I dont recommend this daycare.
