Timberview Farmstead opened in March of 2024, and this was my first. I am filled with joy and can…read moreguarantee I will be back and in the meantime, sharing this gem with my friends and neighbors! Timberview will be a huge establishment; I wish them the best of luck as they continue to grow! Typically, there are 30 - 40 people who come to the events. They also do field trip days where they have 120 kids at a time doing all the fun activities and meeting the animals. My friend and I got lucky to have a near private tour with us and grandparents with their grandkids. Seth was kind enough to show us all around, teach us all about the animals and this wonderful place. Normally, it is more free roam. The summer schedule runs as follows: Daily Farm Schedule 10:15 AM Rabbit Races at the Small Animal Barn 10:45 AM Petting Tables at the Small Animal Barn 11:15 AM Sheep and Goat Walk Meet in front of the Large Animal Barn 12:15 PM Hold the Chickens at the Poultry Barn 1:00 PM Daily Theme Activity Each day is a different activity, and those are: TEA PARTY TUESDAYS Join us for afternoon tea with the bunnies! WATER WEDNESDAYS Bathe the goats, water the plants, and feed the ducks! TAKE HOME THURSDAYS Come pick up a farm activity to bring home! FISHING FRIDAYS Pick up a pole and head to boathouse! I loved the rabbit races. Getting to pick your rabbit, and then they put on race music for the bunnies to get excited and run. It is so fun. Reese and Waffles won our races, so you can try those two bunnies for your races. They did let us know two bunnies that we could not pick because they just had babies or were pregnant. They take good care of their animals here! Another activity that we thoroughly enjoyed was the goat and sheep walk. It unlocked a new joy for me. Seeing kids walk a goat or sheep. There is nothing quite like it! One child walked the mama goat, and the baby followed the whole way. One sheep (Ana) decided she did not want to go for a walk and dug her heels in the ground, so they let her go out to the pasture. Again, nothing is forced. If the animal doesn't want to or is tired, they get a pass. I can't wait for their fall activities! They plan to be open every Saturday in October and will have pumpkins and likely a small hay maze. December plans are unknown, but they may also be open on Saturdays, so follow their Facebook page and website for details to come. In the future, they hope to have a farmers market, coffee shop, and eventually a restaurant. Right now, their produce is sold to Tacos Oasis, a restaurant down the road and a catering company. We got to see them harvesting microgreens during the visit. Seth taught us about aquaponics, a method of growing lettuce in water from fish, which combines hydroponics with raising fish in tanks. About 20 employees work here, and the 5 or so that we got to interact with were welcoming and honestly, heartwarming to chat with. Seth obviously stands out because he walked around with us for two hours, but also T. She is a midwife who is changing up careers and a very pleasant person to chat with about the animals. The last thing I'll note. For being a farm, it is shocking how clean this place is! They do a great job keeping the floors clean. Ample hand washing stations and a few bathrooms in some buildings. The one thing I found missing was a diaper changer. It's possible they have one, but just not in the rabbit barn bathroom. Come enjoy, stay as long as you can, and definitely become a member to get the most joy from this place! Pack water, snacks, and a full lunch so you and the kids can stay happy during your visit. You can also visit Taco Oasis down the road afterward like we did! Check out all my pictures for detailed captions on cool things we saw.

Me and my husband are first time parent so we were very nervous. We absolutely love the staff in Rooms 100 and 150, as well as all of the wonderful front desk staff. Everyone has always been so kind, caring, and welcoming to our family. We are so sad that we are moving and have to leave, but this school will always hold such a special place in our hearts. I especially love the Watch Me Grow cameras and the updates throughout the day it always gave me peace of mind knowing I could check in on her and see how she was doing. It's clear that the teachers and staff genuinely care about my daughter, and that means so much to us. I'm so grateful we chose this school as her first daycare and will always look back on our time here with so much appreciation. We highly recommend this school to any family looking for a loving, nurturing, and trustworthy place for their child! Special shoutout to Miss Arlet & Ms Erika! The Luces

WORKING PARENTS BEWARE. We enrolled our daughter in their summer camp last year, which she loved,…read morebut apparently the owner is unfamiliar with tax deduction for any day camp during work hours. 5 days into inquiring for EIN, she refuses to give to us stating that her accountant told her that that is something she should not give away.

So, if you don't need to claim child care for their summer camps, go ahead, but if u do, DON'T DO IT.

The absolute worst place to bring your children. My 6 and 7 year old daughter have been constantly…read moremistreated by Kate. I let it slide several times because I figured they have to be exposed to unkindness in order to grow. Well today was absolutely enough. Kate threatened my daughter with screaming at her if she continued to cough. My daughter spent the rest of her time there holding her breath in order to not cough and get an aggressive reaction from Kate. Today my daughter also decided to wear her pajama bottoms to class. Kate called her, a. 6 year old innocent child...poor and broke. What kind of person who is supposed to be trained to work with children behaves this way? Well apparently Kate and she is fully endorsed and supported by the owner, Rina Nicole Hale. I tried reaching out to her to get assurance that this would not happen to another child again and she simply ignored and blocked me. When my daughters let me know what happened I went back inside to withdraw them. Enough was enough. I was calm when speaking with the manager, Kala because she wasn't the aggressor who hurt my daughters feelings. But I was still met with aggression and hostility from Kala. She laughed in my face and tried gaslighting me. Saying no one has ever had a problem with Kate. In between loud annoyed sighs and groans she gave me the worst service. I even asked her why she was behaving that way. I asked for the owners contact information and she said, no one has time for you. I later found out Kala and the owner Rina are best friends so absolutely no disciplinary actions will take place. No customer relations will be mended. After spending so much money on this business we were met with some of the worst treatment we've ever experienced. Please save your children the heartache and save yourself the money. They are not kind people. They do not know how to treat children. They have absolutely no class. They do not know the first thing about customer service.

The interior of the building is kinda bare, not a lot of glass containers of animals, and the ones they have are typically reptiles and or spiders.

I think they had in insect where they teach kids all about them.

They have a room with a few interactive games that my kids liked. For my 2 kids and I it was $11 to go in that room. Honestly it wasn't really necessary, and we wouldn't have missed out if we didn't go in there. But I didn't mind since everything else was free. We only stayed for about an hour. It was nice to just enjoy the outdoors. There weren't any animals outdoors to view. But it was still super pleasant. I would say skip the special room unless you want to just donate to the center.

My review is only for the afterschool care program…read more Our 9 year old really loves going to day care here. It's not a fancy facility by any means, but the counselors are great and he's never bored. They have homework time and play time in the afternoons which is sometimes indoors, sometimes at the park next door. The price cannot be beat either; it's about half what any private facility would charge. If we didn't like Dottie Lynn I'd pay more to have him go somewhere else, but he's very happy here and I trust the staff. -- if you're looking at Dottie Lynn for other reasons such as the gym etc. I cannot really comment, but the facility in general is relatively old and not fancy - so I suspect they aren't a state of the art workout facility.

I was a brand new director and only stayed there for 3 months because I didn't agree with their practices and hated the lack of training provided to me as a new employee. I love working with children and seeing them learn. The teachers didn't know how to be teachers because they were not properly trained as well. They hire any one, with or without experience.
