Provided by YP.comI love this daycare. My child is still a little too small to know much, but she is enjoying how much of the classroom she has to get around in and the different toys and projects they are doing. Her teacher she absolutely adores. She is definately mommy during the day for me. ;) I love all the things this school offers, the staff works with you. My childs teacher is awesome and ever so loving. My only complaint is the booties. Parents are still wearing their shoes inside the infant/crawley crabs room. It is the only thing that I just can't seem to understand. It would be nice if the staff put the booties outside the classrooms so that it would trigger a reminder for those parents that continue to leave their shoes. The babies are either not walking, trying or either way they are always on the ground in their room. They are constantly putting toys, their hands and food that may have fallen on the floor into their mouths. What's to say they aren't picking up something that came off someone's shoes into their mouths. It' unsanitary for the safety and health of our babies. Our shoes have a tremendous amount of bacteria and germs and God knows what else on the bottoms. I wish they would enforce it more than they do for parents either to put on the booties or just take their shoes off. Lastly my concern is the parents letting their other older children into the infant and toddler rooms. They are flipping, jumping and playing on the mats and toys of the babies. At any moment one of them could accidently hit or kick one of the small babies in the room and it's very unsafe. Hopefully they would address that as well. They can politely have them make their children wait by the door, this is just for the safety of other peoples children that are in the classroom. These are my only two concerns. Other than that I would still recommend this school to my friends.

Provided by DexKnowsI honestly don't know where to start. My family has loved and trusted this daycare for many, many years. Me and my siblings all went here in preschool. We love it. And it doesn't stop there, oh no. Once we graduated preschool, we went to the elementary school across the street. Whichever wonderfull teacher happened to be teaching the older children at the time would take his or her time to walk across the street, and go pick up all the kids who attended the kids who went to the program after school. And we live in Arizona, so often the heat was high. But still the teacher would pick us all up. They were also open when the elementary school was on break, so that we could go all day instead of a few hours after school. The amazing cook for the school made snacks and lunches for every class, so that every child got fed. If the children had allergies, the parents would tell the office manager and she would write it down and give it to the teacher in the child's class. That way they knew if the cook had I make a special lunch for the child. This school is penut and strawberry free. And Christian. I cannot give a higher praise for this school. I loved it when I attended. I am older now and not able to attend amymore, sadly. Trust me if I could I would. All of the teachers are amazing, as well as the office managers and the cooks. Even the janitors are awesome! I'm not kidding, this place doesn't get better. I have even grown to know personally a few of the teachers and managers. I couldn't even begin to say how much I love this entire place, or the people in it. I grew up here and I can't bear the thought of leaving it. I plan to visit soon though!! If any of the teachers or managers are reading this, thank you. Soooooo much. I can't even begin to... if you haven't already guessed, and you know me, it is Sarah. See you soon hopefully. If your not, I definetly recommend this place. You will not find a better school\daycare. I've read through the low ratings, and I promise you they are all nonsense!!! I have never even come close to any type of complain as harsh as the ones they have. The ladies in the office are amazing and do not lie. As for the one where it said they didn't ask for the ID, it's not true. I have personally witnessed the teacher caretaker or manager ask for an ID. And also, the doors where the children are protected and need a special buzzer only parents who go there have to get in. And if they forget it then the manager can ask for the ID and let them through if they recognise the name. Again, I recommend this place. I love it and you will too.

Provided by DexKnowsI have had several concerns about this daycare. This is a daycare not a preschool. The office does not have an open door policy. There is no accountability from the staff when you have a concern. The office staff attitude is âIf you do not like it go elsewhereâ type of attitude. They have cameras there but they do no good because when you confront them they lie! More than half the staff is not certified to be working there and not everyone is CPR certified- you just better hope your child does not get left in a class with a teacher that is not CPR certified if an emergency were to arise. If your child has to repeat preschool program twice to do your child having a late birthday, the curriculum is the same. So you are paying high dollar to get the same curriculum just with different staff. Sometimes you do not even know what classroom your child will spend the day in because when they reach their overload in ratio they start to move the kids around. They are always over ratio because they do not have enough help. The turnover is high. In my opinion it does not seem that they treat their employeesâ well- not too Christian like. My child would come home with scrapes of paperwork as his work for the day. For the amount of money that you pay here it is not worth it at all! The office staff is very unfriendly not sure what they are doing working with the public.

Provided by DexKnowsBoth of my children love this preschool - and my husband and I do too. The teachers are caring and take time to give us insight into our kids' days when we pick them up each afternoon... the curriculum is challenging and we are constantly surprised by the new vocabulary and information our kids come home with. The support staff is amazing and willing to accommodate schedule changes, dietary restrictions, and just be a listening shoulder when needed. I highly recommend this preschool!

Provided by DexKnowsI have several complaints against this school!The first time my husband picked up our 5 month old baby they never checked his ID...he had never been there before and they just handed her over to him with out checking any ID.She went one day and was only given ONE bottle for the whole 10 hours she was there!On her last day there (the day I fired them)she was "accidentally" given another childs bottle...I still have NO proof as to what was in that bottle.She also did not receive her asthma treatments that day so by the time I picked her up she was not breathing well at all and when I went to collect her breathing machine it had mold in it...so all treatments she received she was breathing mold! Also...she had pink eye TWICE and was ALWAYS sick there!Since being placed into a new school (LOVE IT)she has not been sick once and no longer needs breathing treatments.I took her to Radiant cause it was Church based and I thought she would get good Christian based care...HA!
