    Sunshine & Rainbows Child Care Preschool

    My daughter has been going to Sunshine and Rainbows since she was 2 years old, and we've had…read morenothing short of an amazing experience. She's now in kindergarten, but still attends three days a week because she loves it that much--she even begs to go on days she normally doesn't! From the beginning, the staff has been warm, patient, and truly invested in her growth. She's made so many friends, and she's always happy and smiling when we pick her up. The amount she learned in their preschool program blew my mind--and her kindergarten teacher's too! Thanks to Sunshine and Rainbows, she was more than ready for kindergarten and is already ahead of the curve. I'm so grateful we found this place when we were searching for childcare. They had room for her when we needed it, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Highly recommend!

    I am writing this anonymously considering I remain in the childcare community…read more I can vouch for the rating below, children are barated, they are held down to their cots during nap (primarily Alyssa), the concerns on safety are met with a smile to the parents and blatantly ignored and excused once parents leave. I have heard several of the staff in all of the rooms but infant bully and verbally abuse the kids. When I was working there staff have been bullied into staying or not allowed to leave or call in sick, even when they came down with RSV. State policy is followed when state is there and only when state is there. Communication with the parents is only permitted in a way that Lorie (director) or Allyssa deem acceptable in order to maintain their reputation. I was constantly out of ratio due to overstaffing from high turnover rate. The pressure and bullying here from the directors and lack of support with the parents, along with the abuse towards the kids (more than just the cot situation) has lead me to not trust care facilities as a whole. I am afraid to send my son to preschool after working here and it supposed to be the "better school" DO NOT SEND YOUR KIDS HERE AFTER 18 MONTHS!!!

    My daughters attended Sunflower for a couple years, Miss Maria who runs the baby room is fantastic…read more But my issues were with the teachers after the baby room. Since the current owners have taken over my older daughter has come home repeated with unexplained injuries and band aids and the teacher/owners response is no one knows anything about it. My daughter who is three has come home TWICE with burns on her hand with no explanation from the teachers or owners. The event that really made me angry was when I laid my daughter down to change her diaper and there was a bead lodged high up in her nose and again no explanation from anyone. The common answer is "I don't know how that could have happened and no one else said anything". They also have a lot of trouble keeping track of my daughters personal items, losing several cups and blankets. They do have refrigerators in every class room but for some reason our kids have had spoiled milk in their cups repeatedly. They also have had us bring in diapers and wipes way more often than our kids would need. In the same week we received notes twice to bring in diapers (REPEATEDLY) and we bring in half a case at a time every time. All this from a day care we paid over $14,000 a year.

    My kids absolutely adore Sunflower Learning Center and their staff. They've been exceptional with…read moreus, my four almost five year old has gone since he was about 10 months and my two year old started when he was about two months. I've actually been home with them for the past few months and my oldest has been asking to go back. Thank you to Christina and all staff! Five star rating from our family.

    This was my second time using Lake Tahoe sitters, Holly is prompt and professional. She set us up…read morevery quickly with Nicole who was amazing. We had three kids total, two ages 3 and 5 and one 6 month old. Nicole, brought activities for the older kiddos and she was very hands on with the baby. Also she helped us unpack our groceries and even cleaned up a bit while the baby was napping. She's got great energy and the kids loved her. A pleasure to work with!

    Use any other service! My communication with the owner, Holly, has been truly awful. I feel lucky…read morethat this did not work out as I find it hard to trust the legitimacy of this business and her ability to vet quality service providers. She confirmed that she had availability for my requested date, but communication on her end was extremely slow. I had to follow up multiple times to get a reply. She originally tried to charge me more expensive rates than what is listed on the website but agreed to do "honor the posted rates" when I challenged it. I should have gone else where at this flag but tried to give her the benefit of the doubt. The evening before our confirmed reservation, I had no details and gave her a call. She told me she was on vacation but assured me we were confirmed. She asks me to email her (again) because she can't find me email. She did not seem to be entirely coherent and mistakenly called me back later trying to book an appointment with a psychic. All this was strange and made me uncomfortable, but as she would not be the one caring for my child and hoped that I could vet the sitter she connected us with. She sent me a standard confirmation email at 9pm that night but it did not include the sitter details and it stated I would be introduced to the sitter the day before which obviously did not happen. When I followed up about this, I was told the sitter was injured and she needed to find someone else. Only upon my following up with her 30 minutes prior to my scheduled reservation, does she inform me that she could not find anyone. No attempt to make things right or offer another option (we were flexible). This "service" is completely useless.
