Karrah is a dedicated director of the school and always stays on top of meeting expectations and children's individual needs. I wouldn't recommend any other place to accommodate your children ! The circular and atmosphere for the children who attend this school is one of a kind. Highly recommend a tour as well.

Do not enroll your kids in this daycare…read more I enrolled my son in this daycare few months ago and had a very terrible experience.The teachers in my son's classroom were very rude and irresponsible. There were two instances where I went to pick my son and found him in wet clothes. His teacher did not even bother to change his clothes (God knows for how long he was sitting in those wet clothes). I don't understand how come his teacher did not realize that he was sitting in wet clothes if I could figure it out in few seconds after seeing my son. When I asked the teacher why he was sitting in wet clothes she did not even care to apologize. In other few instances, I found my son's shoe laces untied and his teachers did not bother to help him tie the shoe laces. Also his teachers were so rude, at several instances I have noticed them screaming loudly at the kids. Thank god , I have recently enrolled my son in an another daycare. My son is loving his new school from the very first day and never wants to go back to the learning experience. This is the worst daycare I have even seen.

We have been enrolled with Sunshine Daycare since June 2021 and love it. Our 19 month old boy loves…read morethe teachers and his peers, mainly because they are incredibly caring. Over time the staff feel like family. We have have lots of trust with them (especially during covid times) and knew that our son was not only being taken care of; he was being loved. The environment is cheerful and the classroom are very artistic with lots of crafts. They promote curiosity oriented learning and explore with textures and colors. The teacher show a genuine interest in the kids and really do love every single one of them. The teachers are always willing to work with parents, whether it is about diet, allergies, pacifiers and sleep/nap schedules, medicine. They also give parents ques on how to ensure our kids milestones are met. We get updates at the end of the week on what they are teaching them and what was the focus The director, Mrs. Janet, is doing a great job with her staff and we are excited to be part of it all

My daughter attended this place for 2 years, but I was never fully happy or felt that we were…read moretreated with the most care or respect. I was a first time mom and didn't know of another place that would be so close or affordable. I kept my daughter here, truly for the convenience of distance and price rate. However, many times I would have normal questions I would think a typical parent of a 1-2 year old can have and there were times they didn't have an answer for me. Sometimes they were not willing to accommodate our family needs, yet that's part of what they claim they stand for. Please understand that my daughter was always happy to go there because of her teachers. The teachers do the best they can, but they lack appropriate training and sometimes resources. My biggest issue was with management. From my personal experience, since I am a teacher myself and deal with parents and here management was never the most professional with me as a parent. It really hurt me that we felt pushed out. They wouldn't accommodate my schedule and didn't guarantee me a spot for my daughter. They said they would let me know in advance and never did, which led me to find another school and know about my options, because they wouldn't give me an answer. As far as academics is concerned, my daughter didn't learn much there. They would play all day, hence she was always happy to go. I never saw a real progress in her learning. The administration was never willing to accommodate a family who had already been there for 2 years. They didn't care about losing us and pushed us out. Another issue was that there was no one you can take formal concerns to. They were all extremely close at a personal level and I knew I would not be heard. I would only recommend this place for your child's care if you want them to play all day and you want good rates. But be aware if you are 5 minutes late, you will be charge per half hour. I have to be honest as I never felt my daughter was neglected or in danger, but definitely didn't get the best educational experience there. This place could be a better place for families around BR if they take a better business management approach, which they have lack of.

Children's Circle has an extremely warm and caring staff which is so important. It's structured…read morewith a good balance of learning and play. There are not a hundred rules for the parents and yet you still feel like its a very safe environment. The rooms are clean and have a homey feel. The price was the lowest, most competitive in the area for us. We had 3 of our children at this daycare between 2007 and 2012. We always felt it was a great daycare. But not having tried anywhere else, we were never sure. We recently moved and have been searching for a daycare in our new area. We now have a further appreciation of how great a daycare Children's Circle was. We have been unable to find another daycare in our area. We tried one and left it after a month. It is really really difficult to find a decent daycare. If there was a daycare half as good as Children's Circle, we'd send our kids there. We and the kids miss you all at Children's Circle!

The…read moreteachers are very knowledgable and have been there for a long time, which gives us a feeling of security. Also, all food is provided by WDCC and the children eat family style, which my husband and I were a huge fan of since we have picky eaters. By the end of the first day they were having so much fun! Anytime I have called to check in my call is always answered happily and I get a full report. Since my son has a food allergy I was a little nervous, but the center pays close attention and he has been fine. We get pictures and there are always fun activities going on to help the kids learn while allowing them to have fun and be kids. I would recommend this location to anyone who is looking for a day care/nursery school!

There truly aren't enough words to express how much we love C2S! Our daughter started at just 3…read moremonths and choosing C2S has been one of the best decisions we've made for our family. Over the years, we've grown incredibly close to Sue and Nicole at the front desk. They feel like family, and we know we can come to them with absolutely anything. They know every child by name and have such a warm, personal relationship with each one. It's a true reflection of the love, care, and sense of community that make C2S so special. The teachers are equally amazing. I've shed more than a few tears when it's time for our daughter to leave a classroom and move on to the next one because of how attached we've become to the teachers who have cared for her. They are warm, loving, supportive, and consistently go above and beyond to create engaging, interactive experiences for the children. We are constantly amazed by the creative activities they plan and the thought they put into each day. They treat your child as their own, and we are incredibly grateful.

The place is new and immaculate and up to date with the latest technology. You get pictures throughout the day from the teachers and a daily report at the end of the day, to know what they did that day.

My son is learning a lot and always looks happy when checking in on him throughout the day!

Starting out at LB at age four months was a difficult transition for me as a new mom. But the LB staff (both the classroom teachers and the administration) have been nothing but warm, receptive, and helpful since Day 1. I'm not going to say that everything has been perfect all of the time (that would be silly and you'd never believe me). However, when trouble has come up, LB has always been there to help. Sue, the owner, in particular, has always been willing to listen and help craft a solution. Sue is definitely a "hands-on" owner - stepping in when needed. During what has been an extraordinary last 10 months, LB has been open and honest about what is going on both from a healthcare perspective (not easy given that guidance is coming from federal, state, and local officials) as well as what is going on within the building. I can honestly say I feel like LB is doing absolutely everything they can to keep our kids happy, healthy, and safe. I could not be happier with where my daughter is or with the LB staff and administration.

We disenrolled my son after only two months at Lightbridge Academy Westfield. Honestly, we would…read morehave done it sooner if it weren't for their 45-day policy, and we regret not pushing to pull him out ASAP. The number of issues we had in such a short time was horrendous. My son was in the mobile infant room. First, at the open house, there was no communication about the children's daily schedule, and the overall presentation was unprofessional. The teachers read off a paper and gave us no instructions on drop-off/pick-up routines. Almost daily, my son's lunch dishes were scattered throughout his bags, lost, or we took home another child's materials. We packed lunch and snacks daily. However, my son was continuously fed snacks from the school without my permission, and when I would bring it up I was assured they were not. But at pick up, they would tell me he enjoyed the school snack today. The staff in the room was unprofessional. They were using the iPad for personal searches, the pictures they sent home were blurry or did not always include our child, and they were not warm and friendly to us. The app was never accurate, and we were rarely updated on the amount of food he was eating. If this was brought up, we were told the app was down. But then magically fixed moments later. The communication between the teachers was awful. Their tone towards us and our son was rude, condescending, and it often felt like they did not like him. Because of these attitudes, we did not report the small issues for fear of retaliation against our son. Unfortunately, these are only the small issues, but towards the end, there were issues of neglect. In my son's last week at Lightbridge, he was sent home twice with a diaper that was clearly not changed in a long time. Each time it was about 4 hours in between. They would change him, give him lunch, put him down for a nap, and wait an hour or so after he woke up to change him again. On his last day, he had such a bad rash that he was struggling to walk. Not a single teacher in the room noticed. It is hard to tell if they don't care or are disorganized. However, changing a baby after a nap is common sense. When we called to complain (for the sake of other children), Olive gave us a run-of-the-mill response with no remorse. We highly recommend that you do not send your child here.
