AAALC has recruited the most incredible teachers. The class sizes are small and the instruction is very individualized. As a professional working in schools and a mother of 3, I have encountered many schools claiming to individualize the curriculum, but this tends not to be the case. AAALC creates classes based on the academic and social/emotional level of your child. They have highly experienced staff on sight that can tutor your child if needed. Each semester your child can choose from an out-of-the-box selection of electives and the school events are wonderful! I am beyond grateful that my children are growing up in such a positive environment that truly fosters the love of learning!

Please do not bring your child here!…read more They sent my 6month old baby home with the wrong pacifier on day two at this facility. My child then came down with hand, foot, and mouth on day three of daycare. The director(Jhai) lied to me about any other kids having the virus. It was their fault for not ensuring my child used the right pacifier. Due to their negligence my child was forced to stay home the remainder of the week while I still paid the full weekly rate. Send your kid somewhere else. Don't believe a word the director says because she makes promises and gets amnesia when it's actually time to deliver. The director told me told me, I would get a discount based off my employer and actually quoted me what to pay. Then had the audacity to tell me all of the on-time payments I made were late. When we reviewed all of my payments with my credit card statements it was discovered they were all on-time and in the correct amount but she still acted like she was doing me a favor. Stay away from this place!!!!!!!

Quick Reference:…read more Pros: - Sanitation and child health taken seriously - Regular handwashing, bootie shoe coverings, and glove wearing (long before COVID-19, y'all) - Safe feeding, meaning bottles only made at home and labeled with date, contents, and kid's name - Good ratio of teachers to babies (1:4, sometimes 1:3) - Good activities, even for bitty babies, sensory exercises, tummy time - Pay weekly, or pay monthly. Monthly gets you a discount! - Teachers and staff clearly care a lot about kids Cons: - Morning traffic in the area can be... frustrating. There's a Comcast back in the industrial park, and an Altec Roofing, so if you get there at just the wrong time in the morning, you might have to survive the flood of vans and trucks. - That's basically all the Cons. For the longer story: Our baby boy was due in September 2019, and my husband and I were slacking on getting childcare arranged so we finally started looking at places in October (I know, please don't judge us). We live in Martin County, but we both work in West Palm Beach, so we were looking for something at either end of our commute.We started with Martin County so we would have a short drive to drop BB off in the morning, or if we needed to drop him off but didn't need to go to WPB, but it has almost N O T H I N G worth looking into for an infant. They're either for 12mo+, full, too expensive, or some combination of, up to and including, all three. Village Boulevard KinderCare had been on the radar from the start, as it's about 15 minutes drive from both our workplaces (in good weather, with no traffic, and if the Traffic Light Goddess smiles on you; 20-30 under normal conditions) and though there weren't many Google reviews (and no Yelp reviews at the time), what was there was extremely positive. Hubs and I called the center, and to our delight, it was a direct line in! No IVR-press-1-to-speak-to-another-robot! We made an appointment to come in and take a look around the next day during Universal Nap Time. We brought 3-week-old BB with us, and he charmed everyone (as is only proper for any brand new baby; they're all adorable af). Jhai, the center director, and Angela, the assistant director, were both a joy to meet. They take infant and child health seriously in this place. Since we had a bitty baby, one of us stayed in the foyer area with him while the other was shown all the things in the infant room, and then we switched. Whoever was going in the room had to put on booties to cover their shoes so the floor didn't get dirt and germs from outside tracked in. The teachers in the infant room wear those booties all day long, warm up bottles and food while wearing gloves, and they do diaper changes with gloves and a new cover paper (like at the doctor's office!) for every change. This was standard, even before COVID-19 became a thing. After that, restrictions on entry to areas beyond the foyer were put in place, and then restrictions on entry to the building, plus PPE for staff. Speaking of bottles, they send home bottle labels because they practice safe feeding, and the only one to make the bottles is the baby's parent/guardian. That way, your baby doesn't get someone else's formula or breastmilk by accident. Speaking of breastmilk, those labels are RED instead of white, so it's absolutely clear that there's a difference. We've been bringing our baby here since he was 8 weeks old. He's nearly 7 months old, now, and we still just love bringing him here. When he starts school in a few years, it's up in Martin Co. I'm not looking forward to his last day at VBKC. We've been working from home now for about three weeks because of the pandemic, so BB hasn't seen them since then. They're keeping his spot open and listing us as drop-in until things settle down. I can't express how much that helps us. Though our family isn't in need of daily care, there are a *lot* of essential workers out there who do, and these guys are awesome for supporting them. We can't wait to go back!

Teresa or what the children call her affectionately "T.T." Is the most effective swim instructor I…read morehave come across in my experience as a mom of 3 kids. Teresa's approach is loving and trusting but with the right amount of "tough love" that teaches the children how to survive in any water survival situation. My 2 year old most recently was tested in a real life situation when she lost her balance on a pool step and fell backwards in the pool; she instantly almost naturally knew to float on her back with her chin up until she knew she was near the pool wall to grab on. My child would never have learned this skill and most importantly done it under pressure without the teachings of "T.T.". The thing that impressed me the most when I first met Teresa was the fact that this special lady is truly in the business of teaching children to swim because she wants to save lives-and I know for a fact that she is every time she gets in the pool to teach a child! I will forever feel blessed that our paths crossed.

Starting a 3+ hour rehearsal at 5pm on a Friday for 3-4 year olds was really tough, and making them sit through another long recital the next day was also difficult. The studio wasn't receptive to suggestions to make the process easier for the youngest kids - in fact, one class was featured nearly at the end of the 2 act recital. Hopefully the studio will take into account all of the suggestions and workarounds provided by parents and staff to make this a more positive experience in the future because my child really enjoyed the class!
