The cost is about the same as other daycares, but the classes are smaller, so the teachers are definitly able to watch them properly. The school also offers a 10% military discount and a teacher discount. They have recently changed owners, so the name is now Little Learning Lab, but all teachers will be staying.

They are very flexible with daycare (if I cannot sit, my son can leave the boys there with short notice. Of course there is a fee for that, but I do not know what it is). Almost everyone here speaks Spanish as well as English which I'm sure is a plus to many in this area. My grandsons seem very happy here, they are always excited about "going to school" They had no socialization skills before this because they were in private daycare, so this has helped the very much. Their teachers are great, really care about the kids in their class. I wholeheartedly recommend Discovery Point (On Symmes Road) for your child's PVK and daycare needs.

My husband and I were excited to have our daughter return to The Learning Experience when she could. The staff is thorough with the CDC guidelines in dealing with the Covid-19 virus. Jackie and her staff are so warm and welcoming every morning at drop off and during pick-up. My daughter's teacher sends me a few pictures of what she works on and plays with during their outside time. The food options are healthy for her meals and snacks. They staff does a wonderful job with creativity; making ice cream in a plastic baggie, and bringing in donuts for the kids. She is learning to become independent and using her imagination. She gives the staff hugs and really builds a bond with everyone there.

He began his kindergarten year last year and immediately qualified for the gifted program. The VPK program is run by amazing teachers who are patient and experienced. I am thankful for the learning and development my son has experienced throughout the four years. My son has continued to attend The Village during these unsettling COVID times. They have provided a safe environment for him to continue to learn and grow. I definitely encourage everyone to check out the Village. You won't be disappointed.

I'm very disappointed with our overall experience and especially with how our account and refund…read morerequest have been handled. There were several concerns during our time at this daycare. We experienced situations where teachers were yelling at children, as well as concerns about adequate supervision. On multiple occasions, my child came home with bite marks. I understand that accidents can happen in a childcare setting, but repeated incidents raised concerns for us about supervision and how these situations were being handled. We also had concerns with classroom management and communication. At one point, my child became so uncomfortable that he was crying and saying he was scared to go to daycare. We ultimately requested a classroom change, and our experience improved significantly with different teachers. We had some wonderful teachers who were kind and caring, and we appreciated them very much. Unfortunately, our most recent issue has been financial. We provided more than the required two-week notice and were previously given a $260 vacation credit for two weeks our child was absent in March. Based on the attendance, tuition, credit, and payments made, there appears to be an overpayment of approximately $256.41. I have provided the daycare with a detailed explanation and calculation and have repeatedly tried to resolve this directly. I have also specifically requested an explanation from the regional director regarding why this matter has not been addressed. I was told by the school director that the regional director has access to all of my emails and the relevant Procare information, yet she has not addressed the matter with me directly. What is particularly frustrating is that I was told by Mrs. Kayla that she believes I am simply asking for a refund of an unused vacation credit. That is not what I am requesting. The $260 vacation credit was already applied to my account and was part of the calculation when determining what I owed. The issue is the resulting account balance and apparent overpayment after applying the credit and accounting for the days my child actually attended. If the regional director has reviewed the emails and Procare records, I would expect the information to clearly show what I am actually disputing. I have asked for a straightforward explanation of how the final balance was calculated, but I have yet to receive one. I even offered an alternative resolution--using the amount toward several days of individual care if issuing a refund was administratively difficult. Overall, our experience has been very mixed. We had teachers who genuinely cared about our child, and we are grateful for them. However, the concerns regarding supervision, repeated biting incidents, teachers yelling at children, communication, and now the handling of an apparent overpayment have left us very disappointed. I'm sharing our experience so other parents can make an informed decision and, importantly, carefully keep track of attendance, payments, credits, and communications regarding their child's care. I will update when I hear back from the Regional Director about the refund.

Why do you have a waitlist, but allow BAD kids to stay enrolled. Why don't you use common sense and allow other children an education by removing the troubled students. My kid was there to learn! This place has zero structure, zero capabilities to adequately teach children let alone be trusted to watch over them. The teachers are rude and snappy. They served my son juice and outdoor water from the fountain on the playground. My son has never had juice, it's terrible for Childrens dental health, and the tap water in this area is hazardous you can't drink it! I would avoid this place. Do better

I took the tour, I filled out the enrollment forms AND turned them in on Friday Nov. 17th the lady told me all she had to do was email over my forms to the Enrollment Department so they could pull my account over and then she would call me when they did that so I could pay the registration fee, obviously it was the weekend and then Monday came around and I called the Enrollment Department and they said they didn't receive anything and they were going to reach out to the center. Didn't hear anything on Tuesday. Wednesday came and I called early morning and the enrollment department STILL hasn't received any forms (how hard is it to just email over some forms??) so I called the center and they asked for me and my daughters information, put me on hold, came back and said she would have some kind of director call me back. 5PM came around and still did not hear anything so I called again cause I know they closed at 6 or 6:30 and for the holidays Thursday and Friday. Enrollment Department was closed for the holidays so I called the center again... whoever answered must've hated her job cause she had such a hostile attitude but she asked for me and my daughters information again... put me on hold... came back and said "the enrollment department is closed for the holidays so we are gonna have to revisit this discussion on Monday" (When I put on the form that I would like for her to start attending) I heard great things about this place but you'd think that I am trying to get a service from and pay them they would want to hurry things up.... Such a inconvenience and I didn't know it was so hard to get my child enrolled. Not to mention they STILL have automated numbers calling asking how my TOUR went. Definitely not the environment I want my Daughter around. Clearly they don't take children as a priority.
