Learning Tree South Lyon has been an absolutely wonderful experience! The staff is warm, patient, and truly dedicated to the kids. You can tell they care deeply about creating a safe, nurturing, and fun learning environment. My child has grown so much in confidence and skills since starting here. The communication is great, the activities are engaging, and the overall atmosphere feels like a second home. Highly recommend to any family looking for a caring and supportive place for their little one!
The Learning Tree South Lyon has been an excellent place for our son! The teachers are so attentive and clearly care about and love my son. There is great communication between us and staff for all things needed to have my son thrive. We are very happy here and highly recommend!
Very Disappointing This place is severely understaffed and overcrowded. Kids were hitting each other while the staff struggled to manage. Despite seeing many positive reviews, I can’t ignore our experience. My wife came home in tears after witnessing the chaos, and we pulled our son out immediately. Despite emailing the school, we got no response for 1.5 months, only a letter demanding payment. When I asked how they tried to contact us, I received no clear answers. Easier to pay to avoid further hassle, but we’re deeply disappointed. Even more concerning, my wife's review was mysteriously deleted.
We encountered several significant issues within the daycare facility. Staff turnover was consistently high, resulting in frequent changes in lead teachers for our child, with a new teacher every three weeks over the course of approximately a year. While the facility asserts that it offers competitive compensation, I have spoken with former staff members who have worked at other daycares and have disputed these claims. Additionally, during the summer months, water bottles were not always provided outside for the children, and empty bottles were not uncommon. The building’s layout is also quite small and confined. Despite these shortcomings, the food quality was generally satisfactory.
My children have been attending the The Learning Tree in South Lyon for about 8 months. They have had the opportunity to work with many of the teachers including Miss Carrie, Miss Molly, Miss Caitlyn, Miss Jordyn, Miss Jess and Miss Amanda. All the teachers have been helping our children learn and grow with fun and engaging activities and lesson plans. We love the projects that come home and the activities they do that include the families as well! We feel our children are loved by the teachers and they love the food too that is prepared by Miss Lisa! Thank you to The Learning Tree staff for all that you do!
