Wow, I can't believe no one has reviewed this place yet!…read more Children's Choice is awesome. My son is in the upper 3-year-old class there and it's by far the best daycare/preschool I've been to in the area. And trust me, I went to a LOT as I researched schools. This facility is right on the Banner Baywood campus, and it was originally available only to Banner employees. It has recently opened to everyone, which I assume is because there weren't enough Banner-only kids in this economic climate. I don't work for Banner, so I'm glad we were able to get in. Here are the things I like about this place: Ratio: Their ratios are lower than the state-mandated ones that most child care centers around here adhere to. In my son's room, for example, the ratio is 10:1 instead of the state-mandated 13:1. Food: They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner to the kids, which is great because I HATE making lunches for my son. He's only there for lunch, but the food has been really good. They serve the ever-present chicken nuggets, of course, but they also have things like spaghetti, BBQ sandwiches, scalloped potatoes, green beans, fruit, milk. They'll do fun things during snack time like serve popsicles on hot days, and I don't mind at all. Cleanliness. I don't know, maybe it's because this place is affiliated with a hospital, but it is really clean. Like, cleaner than any place I've seen. They provide kids with bedsheets for naptime, and they wash the sheets every night. Crazy. Activities. Children's Choice almost has a Montessori-like feel in the number and variety of activities they give kids to do independently. There's very much a choose-your-own-adventure feel to the classroom, where the teacher sets up various stations and the kids pick what they want to do. My son was looking at fake bugs through a microscope one day. He fingerpaints. He plays educational games on the computer. He plays in the kitchen. He buries seashells in sand. They sit down for structured time, too, like story time, but I like the variety of free play materials. Playground. The playground is HUGE. And once a week in the summer they have "water day" where kids can go play in the sprinklers. Security. There's serious security here. Video cameras around all the entrances. Secret access codes for everyone. Computerized check-in and out. I feel pretty safe about leaving my son there. Staff: The ladies that work there actually seem happy. That's a big improvement from the last school my son was briefly at before I found this place. The director is really nice and helpful. So yeah, I like it. I'm really glad we found this place, because there aren't many reviews online about it.

I used to absolutely LOVE this program when my eldest attended 3 years ago. They had an excellent…read morepreschool program, they were super friendly and informative. I felt that my child was in the best learning environment to get a head start for Kindergarten. Unfortunately, the quality has gone down hill. Their record keeping for the billing has been a complete mess, and I have been overcharged several times. Callie does not provide assistance in a timely manner, and it has now been three months without a refund. This would have never been the case in past years. Billing issues were resolved quickly and accurately. The quality of the teaching staff has also diminished. Previously, they employed teachers with degrees in the field and strong teaching backgrounds. Nowadays, I'm lucky to receive a daily reports on my child's day. I have brought this issue to the Director's attention 4 times, and it still continues to be an issue. I am very sad to realize that I will be very glad when my youngest starts Kindergarten, and we are done using this childcare center. They still have many good qualities and are perhaps still better than some of the other large centers, but they are not nearly as good a program as they used to be.

This facility has gone down hill. Recent safety concerns forced me to pull my son from this…read morefacility. An intruder attempted to enter the building and minimal information was provided to the parents. This comes after they had plumbing stole from their building that forced them to close the daycare for a day. Additionally, a grandparent that was picking up a child threatened to bring harm to me and my vehicle the next time he saw me after an alleged ding. Police were contacted and I report was filed however charges cannot be pressed because their camera footage has not been working for months. Parents are not notified of this issue and we only found this out after a police report was made and police police attempted to collect footage of the incident. Needless to say this man is still being allowed on campus even though he is a harm to parents and potentially their children. To my knowledge parents have still not been notified that their cameras do not work outside the facility that monitor the perimeter or are supposed to monitor the perimeter. The daycare does not take these issues seriously enough and issues are often skirted under the rug when they are addressed with the Director or any sort of management.

I really cannot say enough good things about Bright Horizons at Banner Baywood. My son was so happy…read morethere, it was amazing to see him smile at the teachers and other care workers. The facilities are so nice and the curriculum is excellent. I loved seeing the pictures and reading about all of his activities throughout the day on their app. It's truly amazing to see your child enjoy going to day care each day. My son attended from age 18 months to 2 years. The only reason we are leaving Bright Horizons is because my husband took a job out of state and we are moving. I can easily say the hardest thing about leaving AZ will be saying goodbye to Bright Horizons. They have set the bar so high for childcare I truly worry about finding another daycare that is on their same level in our new state.

We loved our time at Safari. We started taking my son when he was 7 months. We unfortunately had to…read moreleave because of a job/location change. For a family who's never had to leave our son with "strangers" , we had a few bumps and uncertainty as we settled into a routine and they learned about our son. But I'm sure it's that way anywhere. Sure enough, Safari became a second home for our son where he was cared for and loved by not only his teachers but all the staff. At Safari, they care. They get to know your child, they know them all by name. Kathy is phenomenal, she is so involved, and understands. You can always bring a concern to any of the ladies up front and they will listen and help. As a teacher, they worked with my schedule in a way no other center does. Wendy, Rebecca and Sedona are so wonderful in Joeys. Thank you ladies. If you need a daycare/learning center for your child, I would highly recommend Children's Safari.

If you're considering enrolling, I want to share our family's experience so you can make the best…read moredecision for your child. We experienced multiple serious safety incidents involving our toddler at Primrose School of East Mesa. Despite months of trying to work with leadership, the issues were never resolved, communication was inconsistent, most incidents were communicated to us parents-to-parent and when we asked leadership about what happened their response was "who told you" over prioritizing resolution. We were ultimately forced to unenroll for our child's safety. We were also given conflicting explanations and very limited follow-up from administration. I'm sharing this so other parents can be aware and ask the important questions before enrolling. Our kids deserve transparency, accountability, and safe care every single day and in our experience, that's not a Primrose priority.

His teachers are incredible and provide frequent updates throughout the day along with lots of photos, which we absolutely love. We also love all of the activities they do and how they take the time to teach the little ones a variety of subjects. It's comforting to see how happy our little one is throughout the day and how much he's learning. Our guy also loves the food and eats so well there! We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend Primrose East Mesa to any family looking for a caring, safe, and supportive school.
