Young World Early Learning Center, is truly a wonderful community! This school director and faculty shows up not just for the children in their daycare, but they encourage growth and safety in children all around the city through being involved in countless support programs and are consistently providing information on programs to help everyone in need in any way. I am so blessed and happy to have my daughter be part of this community! My daughter is one and a half, she absolutely loves her teachers, she’s always hugging them when she sees them. She always comes home impressing me with something new that she has learned. She has the best time at her daycare and I couldn’t recommend this place and these teachers here enough! The teachers schedule quarterly meetings to go over all children’s development and they tune into every detail. The kids listen to all kinds of music throughout the day and as one person mentioned, they do have fun little dance circles to kids bop rap music, they also do educational songs and sign language ect! I wouldn’t take judgement from what someone noticed just as a few minutes of their whole day. My daughter comes home singing all kinds of nursery rhymes she’s learned and dances, thank you Young World ❤️ Ava and I love you guys

Full disclosure, I have not sent children to this daycare, but I lived next to it for a year and based on what I have experienced, no one should ever send their kids there. They take kids out for play time in a small, concrete court yard while they sit on benches on their phones as opposed to walking the few more steps it takes to get to the beautiful green grass space next door to them. They play rap music during this outdoors time which not only causes an extreme disturbance but also is completely inappropriate for children.

My infant son has been going here for 2 months now, and we have been really happy with Young World! All of the teachers are very friendly, kind, and engaging. It was difficult for me to leave my child with someone else, but they made the process much easier for me.

They didn’t Like me …not sure why… but it showed! Nice place, not so great communication, or experience. I pray yours will be different. My experience felt like there were nice to me because they had to be … no one is OVERTLY unpleasant and it is clean, but beneath the smiles and niceties.. there was poor communication and specifically around payments! They were extremely accommodating with some families but held the line seemingly without consideration with me. I was late for pick up twice in 7 mos.. the first time was behind a communication issue I was charged $35 and handed a tissue. The second I was … 2 mins late after calling and informing that I was in route and a staff member arrived at the door … no greeting and said “6 dollars” (only accepted in cash btw) My First issue was when I didn’t have access to the care app for weeks, and was told to check my email for an invitation. I’m mean checking spam and everything lol…Meanwhile the email was never sent or sent to the wrong address. At any rate I spoke with 4-5 staff members about the issue and still waited over a week to get it rectified. I didn’t speak up how frustrating that was but it should have been an indication of how the relationships would be. The other major issue I had was having to ask for my copay invoice. MONTHLY , I had to request A BILL TO PAY. I was told the invoices would be available via the app.. never happened. I had to ask for my bill monthly beginning in October and received 3 mos worth of childcare bills all in Dec. I paid and asked for a solution. No response. I’ve called to discuss but had not been able to get the director on the line Because I had made several request for a solution. I knew that if I had to bring it up in person I would also need to I remove my child. So I did that instead of pushing back I moved along. No one acknowledged his withdrawal or reached out to inquire about the abrupt change. That was disappointing but it was also confirmation that things were how they felt. They were extremely accommodating with some families but held the line pretty tightly with me. I was late for pick up twice in 7 mos.. the first time was behind a communication issue I was charged $35 and handed a tissue. The second I was … 2 mins late and a staff member hit the door … no greeting and said “6 dollars” I Didn’t get the opp to share this with staff so I’m here for that and to share about MY honest experience Over all I wouldn’t do it again. But I can’t say I wouldn’t recommend because it’s likely they just didnt care for me lol. Teacher was GREAT.. but the rest of the vibes were weird. GOOD LUCK!

I'm sure the kids get great care, but this business allows their parents to drop off all morning while parked in a bike lane, which is extremely dangerous for the neighborhood. They should seriously consider applying for a loading zone so their customers don't endanger others trying to use the road in front of their business.
