I am saying this because I had a bad experience to ask for the "tax form" after my kid left this day care. I wrote twice and called twice before I got an email from the manager telling me how much I have paid them. Most disappointed is that the email did not include EIN number at all . So I have to write another email specifically asking for an EIN number.Does it sound like a professional day care center should do? I am disappointed at the management. But we saw very nice teachers there. Unfortunately, the teacher turnover was very high at least in my experience ( three teachers within 6 months). Hopefully this situation is improved now. So I give three stars.
To kec161, the woman arrested for child porn had NOTHING to do with the center or the children therefore it is not pertenant information. As far as the teachers sitting, teachers are actually required to mimic behavior that they want the children to do. If you knew anything about child development you would know that. Being a mom doesn't make you an expert in child development. Anyone who has anything bad to say about Foundations should most likely stay at home with their children.
If you do not care your kids to be taken cared of by several teachers within one day , you are welcome to the foundations.
I notice all the good scores coming from 2009 or before. What is wrong with foundations? Teachers are still nice but the management is poor. Teachers are less fixed and schedules changes all the time. Have to say, it is becoming a very complicated and confusing system.
We were very unhappy here. My 2 year old son who loved his previous daycare would cry every single morning when I dropped him off. The teachers there were not very warm and were sitting all the time. When I am with my active 2 year old I am never sitting down. The last straw was when I found out that one of the childcare workers there was arrested for child porn - http://www2.dailyprogress.com/news/cdp-news-local/2009/jun/05/woman_in_porn_case_worked_at_area_daycare-ar-85074/While she no longer works there, this is definitely something that should have been brought to my attention when I asked during the interview if there was anything else I should know that might sway me in one direction or another.
Our daughter has been going to Foundations since she was 4 months old and is now almost 3. We can't say enough about the incredible staff and how much our daughter loves going to school. We would recommend Foundations to anyone looking for a loving place to help educate and care for their child.
Both my kids attended from 3 months to when they started elementary school. They had a great head start in school. The teachers at foundations are the best. Even now, we still stop by to visit the teachers. It was a real quality program. They loved the trike track, the extra activities and more. My kids got a great start there and kept on flourishing.
All three of my kids have attended here, beginning in 1998. Two have already graduated from pre-k, and the third is just entering. The best thing is that ALL of my children have had many of the same teachers, as many of those that were there when we started in'98 are still here. To me, the longevity of the staff has only reinforced my opinion that this is the best pre-school in town!
This is a very good preschool. They work with parents and mychild loves going there.
