I have been going to Bellingham Yoga Collective (BYC) for a few months now. I started with the 3…read moreweek pass for an introductory price. I took advantage and took 10 classes during this period. The space is on the 3rd floor of the recently remodeled Granary Building. There is nice bright lobby with reception desk that has been staffed I have been there. Check-in for class is pretty easy, there is an iPad on a stand where participants find their name and tap "check-in". A sign indicates what props will be needed for the class. Props are neatly stacked to the left after entering. The two bathrooms are always clean and are spacious. The yoga room is a simple hard wood space with windows to the north. I (male) have often been the only male in the class, but with the weather getting colder, the mix of participants has increased. I have enjoyed all the instructors, they are kind, helpful, and very good at leading classes. I have taken part in Gentle/Restorative, Hatha, and Vinyasa classes. The times work pretty well for me. There is usually a 7AM class, then 9:30AM, then noon. Those are the classes I have attended (my schedule has been flexible lately). Only once has my class been sold out, a Sunday AM Hatha class, 40 people fit in that room. I have had a number of teachers ask my name, that has been nice, adds a personal touch to attending classes. BYC has a lot of special events, too, I have not attended any, but it's good to know they are there when I am ready to give one a try.

I would yap with them while I was resting between sets but would try and keep it short to be able to finish using the machine. Someone comes up to me and says something along the lines of are you using this machine while i was getting up to switch with my friend. I said yes I have one more set and my friend is just starting. They tell us to stop talking so much and hurry up, we say sorry and let him use the machine to avoid any trouble. They walks away and another person goes up to them and says I glad you said something they are taking too long. On another occasion, someone was rushing us off machines by standing and watching us workout. It was very awkward and I will not be going back!

My Daughter has been going here for over 3 years and loves it! She is familiar with all the…read moreteachers and all the kids. I can tell that at the end of the day, she is happy and well taken care of. All the staff know my daughters name and make a effort to say hi to her each time they see her (She is friendly with all staff and enjoys their company). My daughter is now is the preschool program with them and has learned SO much in the last few months that she made the transition. It has been just a joy watching her learn and explore new things. If there are any issues they have always been address right away and I've always felt heard, which I think its very important in a child care center.

I am thankful for A Child's life learning center! Both of my boys went to this preschool, made…read morefriends, and have fond memories of the staff! Every time we drive by, they point it out and share a memory they have. It is really sweet to listen to their conversation! First, they were super accommodating when we needed part-time during the day. My oldest went to another pre-school in the morning and then Child's life in the afternoon. He came at nap time but they were great greeting him and then, giving him a space to transition. It was really great to have this smooth transition because we did it on a lunch break. My youngest is my shy one and had always had a hard time leaving me but when we arrived each morning, they always said his name and gave him a variety of choices. I honestly felt like they cared! The staff was great! If asked, they shared my boy's day and I always received art work to take home, which is fun to see when you are away from your babies all day! Also, I am a teacher myself so I think I automatically wanted to connect with the staff and they appreciated it. Elaine, the director, was always thinking of ways to improve the preschool and reaching out for resources. This was amazing because it showed she truly cared about the kids. I guess I am writing this review because A Child's Life has a special place in our family's heart. My boys are still in contact with friends they made and when we see a past teacher out and about, they come talk to us. Thank you A Child's life!

The teachers are so kind and my son always says that he loves his teachers. I feel extremely lucky being able to drop my son off somewhere that I feel he is safe and cared for. The school is also very clean, the kids are expected to always wash their hands and I have never seen the school messy. They also feed healthy meals that are organic and my son always enjoys the food. They do fun activities like having fire trucks visit the school, go on field trips and play outside every day! Overall, a great school to send your child! Based on my son's attitude, he is cared for and loved there every day and he is always so excited to be going there!

It is so nice to see her run in each morning excited to see her friends and teachers. We had a bad experience with a daycare before this one and pulled our daughter out to put her here. They put my mind at ease. The staff and teachers not only know each child's names, but they know the parents too and take the time to say hi and talk if you need too. It is a very friendly and supportive place. My daughter has grown so much here, and I appreciate them so much for all they do!

The teachers, staff, and administration are all genuinely kind and friendly. They are down-to-earth and flexible, which is something I did not find in other daycares in the area. It seems like a community. This is a daycare for children of any faith. The facilities are bright and friendly- they have the cutest library.

Other places smelled of cigarette smoke, had toys piled in the corner about to collapse on the kids and fed potato chips to the kids in front of me ( not even trying to fake healthy). Leah gave the kids blueberries. Her place of business was clean. She was relaxed and always happy to see the kids. She didn't mind that for about the first month I stayed for about 45 minutes before I left my daughter (Im sure my daughter would have been fine if I left her but I wouldn't be ). My daughter went to her for 3.5 years and I think Leah only missed one unscheduled day due to an illness. She was very reliable. Her guidelines are clear and concise in writing so there are no surprises or misunderstandings which I really appreciated. My daughter never wanted to leave at the end of the day. I always took that as a good sign. My daughter hasn't gone to Leah's for a few years but we ran into her at Haggens and she was so excited to see my daughter. She talked to her for like ten minutes. She loves those kids and her job. I highly recommend Leah's Place Childcare.

When I was pregnant with my first child I visited a couple centers and spoke to numerous in home…read morechildcare facilities. I wasn't comfortable with any of them. My son was going to be enrolled once he was 8 weeks old, and I knew right off that a center wasn't where I wanted to take him. But I couldn't find any in home childcare facilities that I was comfortable with. I decided to look closer to my work and came across Leah's Place Childcare. We went to visit when my son was 5 weeks old. We went during her business hours so that we could see what the atmosphere was like when kids were there. Being that I was a first time mom and that my son was going to be very young when I enrolled him made me very nervous. But the minute I met Leah I knew we had found our childcare. The minute we walked in we were greeted with happy, excited kids. The first thing Leah did was remind the kids that they could look at my son, but no touching allowed since he was a baby. Then she promptly asked if she could hold him. As simple as this sounds, she was the first person to even acknowledge my son when we went for a visit. Everyone else just ignored him and went about their business. We stayed for about an hour and Leah was more than willing to answer all my questions. I felt very at ease when I left knowing that my son would be in good hands. When he started there Leah was wonderful. She didn't mind me calling 2 or 3 times a day just to check in and see how my son was. She also kept track of when and how much he ate, when she changed diapers, and whether they were wet or dirty. We have know been with Leah for 6 1/2 years, first with our son who was there until he started Kindergarten, and now she cares for our daughter who has also been there since 8 weeks old. I would not trust anyone else with my kids. Leah has a beautiful childcare area that gives the kids lots of room to play and learn. She does Preschool activities with all of them, and they are always doing arts and crafts. I would recommend Leah to anyone. She has become more like an aunt than a provider to my kids. We absolutely love her!
