My 2.5 year old son has been going to Compass Schoolhouse since he was 12 months old. He loves school. He started in the infant room for 2 mornings a week. This year is in the 2's class. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Every time I drop my son off, the head teacher greets him and he dances into class. The staff are nurturing and some of the caregivers/teachers have told me that they sent their kids to Compass originally. Parents are kept informed with weekly emails reviewing what the kids did that week. I just can't say enough. It's wonderful to be able to count on Compass for a safe and stimulating atmosphere where my son plays and learns at an age appropriate level. Next year, both of my kids are attending and I couldn't feel better about it.

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.

The teachers are exceptional (Ms. D, Ms, Hill, Ms, Suero, Ms. Robertson, Ms. Williams and the rest of the staff in the toddler room), they communicate well with parents, and my child comes home happy every day and loves to share about his day. The only areas for improvement are that the parking/drop off situation could be better, and would love to have a class list shared so we could socialize with other families. That said, with daycare the most important thing is the development, safety, and happiness of your child and Apple nails it on these!

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!

That balance of affordability and trustworthy care is hard to come by, and I highly recommend this daycare to any parent looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their child.

I cannot say enough good things about Cradles to Crayons. They are top notch on everything I was…read morelooking for when caring for my children: 1. Security: First and foremost, I want me kids to be safe. There are double-doors in front, each with its own lock, and someone at the front desk. There are cameras everywhere, so there is accountability at all times when it comes to my kids (this has never been an issue with the staff, but more if my kid trips and falls, footage can be reviewed to verify what happened and reported to me). 2. Care: The staff is simply wonderful. They genuinely care for the children and get to know them on a personal level. There are many long-tenured caregivers, which speaks to it being a good place to work, which shows in the engagement with the children. To a person, everyone has been so great with my kids, I couldn't ask for more friendly, compassionate and dedicated people to spend so much time with my kids. 3. Development: While they follow a sound curriculum, they really meet my kids where they are. I have worked collaboratively with their teachers on milestones that were different timing for my kids vs. others (potty training, social skills, etc.) and they are great partners in harnessing my children's strengths and helping them achieve their development goals. 4. Reliability: They are well-staffed and very well run, so there has never been an issue with not being able to provide care. Even with inclement weather, they have only been closed when it was truly warranted. 5. Peace of mind: I simply don't worry about my children when they are at Cradles to Crayons, because I know that they are in good hands.
