As a former employee I do not recommend sending your child here or working here. The management is horrible, they don't take complaints from employees serious and allow people who are not qualified to be in the room in the room alone with the children. The directors sit at the front and gossip, make fun and judge parents and employees. The management complains when they're asked to help whether it be a behavior issue or a simple bathroom break. If a child gets injured by another child it's not taken serious, the directors will go up to the child and say "soft and gentle" then walk out. The management has falsely blamed incidents on teachers that were not at fault. They've had about 9 people quit within two months. When an employee expresses to management that they feel sick, with a "low" fever or even throwing up they have been told that they're fine and to stay in the room with the children due to being short staffed. Central faith charges around $980-$1,050+ per child yet employees are paid starting around 9-10 dollars an hour. The classrooms are maxed out and several rooms have had to be shut down. This center allows employees who openly admit they don't know how to make bottles or change diapers in the room alone with the children. This center didn't fire an employee after that employee admitted their vape was discovered in a child's hand (doubt this was reported to the parent.) The rooms are filthy, several employees don't clean after the children eat. There are bugs and have been complaints of rodents in the rooms. We are told not to sit out the trash until after 1:00 because it "looks unprofessional" when they're doing tours. Directors claim to "follow" health guidelines and preach them to us through long emails yet fail to follow through themselves. In August/September of 2022 we no longer keep bottle warmers in the infant rooms due to an incident where the alleged hot warmer fell onto a child, burning them. That employee was not fired. One employee was removed from their classroom and moved into infants where she yelled at the babies and treated them aggressively, not feeding them while claiming they "don't eat" and that they need to "take your stupid bottle." The teachers in the room are constantly changing, there's no consistency and almost every room has pretty bad behavioral issues that management does nothing to help with. This place does not care about the families they "serve" the directors and owner only cares about profiting off anyone they can. Seeing this first hand I would never send my child here and I recommend you don't either, very few staff actually care about your child being safe and happy. Your child deserves better than central faith. read more

Central Faith is safe and educational for young children. The directors and teachers really work with the families to see that each child is successful.The meals are exceptional. There is a playground for each classroom and they go outside at least twice a day. Frog Street Press curriculum is used throughout the entire school. Awesome field trips! Bible stories, Math, Science, Literacy, Phonics, Pre-writing, Music and Movement are incorporated into the daily schedule. Central Faith has a great location! read more

this center is in violation of texas state laws they are obligated to abide by. they are betting no one will notice, but we have. how does a "christian" based care system try to contradict the bible's teachings & demand their children inject aborted fetal tissue? it is against the law in the state of texas for discrimination based on religious beliefs! if they don't follow state laws or god's core message, why on earth would you send your kid here? this is your notice, central faith. read more

My child started here as an infant and just went to big girl school. Her teacher asked me what childcare center she came from because she was fully prepared for Kinder. I was proud to say Central Faith. Not only was she prepared academically, but socially as well. This center teaches children good Christian values that help them succeed in life. If I were to have another baby, I would choose to put them at Central Faith hands down. read more

Central faith is not a good daycare for children. Management sucks and doesn't not listen to concerns of parents. They do not listen to any protocol, if it's even something little it should be handled properly. Also, being the head of the whole center, Linda refuses to put cameras throughout the center because she doesn't want to be liable if anything happens. If that isn't sketchy enough I don't know what is. read more

My daughter has attended Central Faith since she was an infant and now is about to leave for Kinder. She is well beyond ready for school because of the education she got while attending Central Faith. In addition to her education, she has developed a love for God while being taught Christian values. The teachers are professional and the management are helpful. read more

My grandkids attended here for several years before starting school. They learned a lot, had fun, and were in a safe and loving environment. The reviewers who are so harsh need to volunteer and/or work in any school environment for one day to understand the hardships of caring for other people's children, especially when there is ZERO discipline at home! read more

Not sure why all of the good reviews are hidden. If you want to know the truth about a center, search their history on the state website. http://www.dfps.state.tx.us/Child_Care/Search_Texas_Child_Care/ppFacilitySearchDayCare.asp This is one of the best places in Waco! See for yourself. read more
