Our family has been nothing shy of thrilled with BRAVO ARTS ACADEMY/DAYCARE since we first started attending the "babies" department back in 2011. I did not realize how superior Bravo was in comparison to the other childcare facilities around, until we were finally lucky enough to make it through their lengthy wait list. Their wait list is extensive for a reason; the faculty quality, facility quality, safety awareness and commitment to higher curriculum far exceeds any other facility in the vicinity. I met with and toured them all. Bravo has done A LOT of evolving in the past 5 years we've attended, all for the better. I continue to be impressed with their push to keep improving as they grow. If there is a hiccup in a system, policy or procedure and it isn't as effective as it should be, the staff is excellent about immediately re-evaluating the situation and implementing a solution. They have ALWAYS been open to any of my suggestions and immediately have addressed my concerns (though, those have be far and few between). They are so accommodating and observant with both of my children, it's hard to believe they can keep up with all of the children in their care. But they do and do it well! Our second child is now moving through the facility with our first and is just as content to attend Bravo as our older child. They absolutely ADORE their teachers! Typically, in a daycare facility you can easily tell which individuals are fully invested in the children's welfare and which individuals instead are there for a paycheck. It is apparent that the entire staff, from teachers to cooks to administration absolutely love all of the kids. I can't think of one teacher who I do not completely trust with my child's wellbeing while at BRAVO. Each and every teacher I've had the pleasure of meeting over the years is so delightful that when the time comes for them to move on, I'm not sure who is more disappointed, my children or myself. In fact, I have implemented several of Bravo's creative and age appropriate ideas into our home schedule, structure and behavior redirection. Bravo thoroughly understands that for us working parents, they have they not only have the responsibility but the opportunity of taking care of the most important piece(s) in our lives - our children. They take this responsibility very seriously. I feel so grateful that Bravo has been available to my family over the past 5 years. I feel so comfortable dropping my children off in the morning . I can give them a hug and kiss goodbye assured they will spend their day creating art, learning superior curriculum, developing friendships, honing social skills and simply playing the good old fashion way. All the while being protected and equally important.............. LOVED. Thank you Bravo! read more

DO NOT WORK HERE AND DONT BRING YOUR CHILD HERE!!! If you want to see the worst of childcare then go to the Riverdale Bravo. The Director, assistant director, and CEO/Owner (Angy Ford) do not care about their teachers. The director (Maryanne Bernal) and assistant director (Naomi Nelson) CONSTANTLY gossip about their teachers to other teachers. They are extremely unprofessional and make a toxic work environment for their staff. The kids and the staff are INCREDIBLE. The management is what makes this place unbearable. They do not fully train their teachers and fire them for doing something that they weren't trained on. The turnover rate in the 4's department alone is ridiculous. They can't keep teachers because they put TOO many kids in the room with them and the teachers get burnt out. I can't even describe the mental toll that too many kids and toxic managment take on a person. When I gave my two weeks the Director came into my room and told my Department leader that I was DEAD WEIGHT. WHILE I WAS IN THE CLASSROOM. Don't bring you kids here because they will NEVER get the attention that they need. There are too many kids and too little teachers because teachers are constantly quitting. If you would like to talk to me more on my experience you can find me as Brittany Nichole Koontz on Facebook. read more

We love Bravo! My family has been attending Bravo daycare for almost 2 years. There are many things I love about Bravo, but the biggest thing is the safety measures they use to keep my children safe. I have never been concerned about the safety of my kids while they attend daycare. I also love how clean and well kept the entire building is, from inside to outside, Bravo does a great job at keeping the entire facility clean and well cared for. The teachers and staff are always friendly and willing to go the extra mile in taking care of my kids and answering my questions. Recently, we discovered my son has very specific dietary needs. I was worried that I would have to start packing my sons lunch everyday, but Bravo daycare has a full kitchen! They make the meals and snacks in house, and they are very willing to provide my son with a variety of foods that follow his dietary guidelines. Another thing I love about Bravo is that when I have any concerns about the care of my children, the Director or On-Site Director are willing to meet with me day of, in order to hear my concerns and make changes if needed. I couldn't be happier with my experience at Bravo! read more

My son has been attending Bravo for over two years and we have been very pleased with the facility as well as with the management. He thoroughly enjoys his class as well as his teachers. Communication has been excellent- each time I have called in, my questions have been answered immediately with courtesy and professionalism. Several months ago, due to some family changes we were going to discontinue attending. However, my son really wanted to stay- we worked things out in our personal schedule and the staff at Bravo was very accommodating and easy to work with as we got him re-enrolled without missing a day and at no extra charge. Billing has been easy and always accurate- I have never had a concern with my payments. Security is excellent and the staff is open and willing to help. I know that I can go anytime and feel welcome attending my son's class or speaking with his teacher. We love Bravo- it has been a positive thing in my son's life and I would highly recommend them to others! read more

I have my sweet daughter in the preschool program at the Bravo Arts Academy and am so happy about it. I've talked to a bunch of people who have had their kids there for daycare, classes, and preschool. They've all loved it. My friends son was reading before kindergarten which is amazing and really helped him have an edge making the transition from preschool to kindergarden seamless. My daughter is so energetic about school. When we went their the first day (for orientation) she didn't want to leave. I love their curriculum, and the kids excitement for going their. Not only do they have a great way of teaching the alphabet, sounds, numbers, colors and shapes they also teach an instrument which builds self esteem and helps the kids be more well rounded. I recommend Bravo Arts Academy to my friends and family and anyone who is on the fence about where to put their child. read more

I absolutely love Bravo Arts Academy in Riverdale. I was originally looking for a place for my daughter to just be able to socialize with other children. Bravo does that and more. My daughter has learned so much at Bravo and I can not say enough great things about her teacher. The front staff is always so knowledgeable and welcoming. My daughter looks forward to going to school everyday. I have probably told at least 10 people about how much I love this school. I would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a preschool for their child. My daughter also takes a dance class their and the teacher for that is incredible. She is very patient especially with the children being so young. She manages to keep their attention for the full hour of class. read more

After being on a waiting list for several months we finally were able to get our three-year-old daughter in bravo. We were very happy about this because of the quality of daycare that bravo is. They have tons of activities and several places to learn. They also have a few different jungle Gyms which is great. The staff is excellent and always happy to greet you. Besides the educational atmosphere, as a parent, I am most impressed with the security procedures of checking in and checking out with a thumbprint access. There is Also a password to pick up your kid from the teachers. I have seen some pretty laxed security in the past at several other day cares my daughter has attended. This one is top notch. I highly recommend bravo for anyone's children. read more

My children have been attending Bravo since August at the Riverdale location. I have been extremely pleased with the teachers and all of the staff. Everyone is so kind and caring. The staff from the teaches to the front desk staff are also always willing to take the time to talk to me about any questions or concerns I may have. I love that the staff have all made an effort to learn my children's names and great them as well with a kind and pleasant and upbeat attitude. One of my children also started taking one is the dance classes and love the teachers and the philosophy toward modesty and conservatism while providing a fun dance environment too!! I would not hesitate to recommend Bravo to anyone. read more

Bravo has been the best choice I've made in a long time for my son. In just 8 months, he has shown so much progress developmentally in so many ways. His social interaction and intelligence have sky rocketed since I registered him at Bravo. The teachers and staff are so encouraging and constantly maintaining positive communication with my son and I so that his progress is always moving forward in every aspect. Their extracurricular activities outside of daycare are so much fun, too! My son loves his tumbling and music class and has excelled in physical developments and fine motor skills through these classes. I'm looking forward to continued progress as we move into the pre-school program soon!!! read more

Bravo has been a great place for my children. They love it, I love it and it brings a good feeling. I am impressed with the security and care that the facility delivers. It's a great atmosphere! Proper care from the teachers, the classrooms are well taken care of. My girls love running to the classroom to anticipate what the day holds for them. I have been impressed with how the teachers inform me about any incident with my children and how it was handled. The teachers are great and put a lot of effort to make sure my kids are looked after, are getting what they need, even when it comes to changing diapers, potty time, naps, lunches and so forth. Hats off to those that watch my children. read more

I love the teachers and so does my son. They provide him with encouragement, with support, and take issues with other kids seriously. I have had great communication with all the teachers and have popped in unexpectedly several times and found them all playing with the kids and interacting. You can tell that the kids are genuinely loved by the teachers. We have done both full daycare and summer program and they are both amazing. We had an issue with something and I brought it to the lead teacher. She immediately fixed the issue and implemented a new system with all the school-age groups to prevent it from happening with other kids. I am so happy we chose Bravo! read more

Our family loves Bravo! Seriously, we cannot say enough good things about it. The teachers we have encountered in our son's preschool and tumbling classes are warm, welcoming, caring, and informative. Our daughter has taken pre-tumble/music and is now in ballet and we have been very impressed with her teachers as well. Parent date nights...AMAZING!! Especially for us newbies here in UT, it gives us peace of mind knowing we can take a break and both of our kids are in good hands. The kids have so much fun, and can't stop talking about all they've learned and how much fun they have! read more

My son has attended Bravo daycare for six years, Clearfield, and Riverdale. Over the years, we have added arts academy classes and date nights. My son looks forward to every day he attends Bravo. I've read a lot of negative reviews about management and teachers. I've not been in every situation; what I can attest to is their candor and compassion. While my son might not always appreciate their honesty, I certainly do. We have attended other schools; Bravo is the only school that has always been supportive, direct, and caring. read more

This is a great local family owned business to work at and to enroll at! The owners fight hard to make sure they offer the best experiences for you and your kids. Bravo Arts Academy offers a unique experience for their students of all ages. I have had several nieces and nephews enrolled here and they all loved every minute of it! The daycare is hard to get into but worth every penny in my opinion. The nieces and nephews that did attend were leagues ahead of kids the same age that went to other local daycare centers. read more

Both of my children attend Bravo. They both love it. All of the teachers at Bravo have been incredibly friendly and caring. I get daily reports on what my children have been doing that day. Their days are filled with art, music and lots of exercise. They spend lots of time outside when the weather is nice which is great. Each classroom has cameras ensuring the children's safety. I am able to watch what my children are doing in class through the monitors in the front hall. I would definitely recommend this school. read more

Bravo is a great facility for child care. My son is in kindergarten and loves it so much. They have amazing teachers and a state of the art facility. You definitely have to pay a bit more for this but the features are worth it. They have finger print scanners to make sure the right person is picking up the right child. They have cameras in every room where you can watch your child and make sure they are fine. Besides child care they also have dance, tumbling, and many other artistic type classes. Bravo is great. read more

Our kids have been going here for over two years. My youngest is in full-time daycare and his teachers are very thorough and caring. I feel like the pre-school curriculum does a good job of preparing them for kindergarten. My school age children go here in the Summer for the Summer Camp program. It's a field trip every day with fun activities planned every day. Security is excellent with fingerprint identification. Our kids have been at other daycare facilities in the past and Bravo is, by far, our favorite. read more

I have to admit that I was skeptical at first and just hoping that my 4 year old built some social skills at the Bravo preschool. I've been extremely impressed though as my little man has learned and retained several new sign language words, is eager to attempt reading, and has made several new friends in his class. It's great that they provide him with age appropriate "homework" too. I'm glad we decided to sign him up for preschool at Bravo and intend to sign all my kids up here in the future. read more

We absolutely love bravo! I am so grateful we found this facility at an affordable rate while I am attending nursing school. My kids have never experienced daycare until this point, so it was a little nerve wrecking the first time dropping them off. When I picked them up they were so happy and had such a good time. Bravo has made a world of difference in my life and my kids life by allowing me to pursue my career dreams while at the same time knowing that my kids are well taken care of and happy! read more
