My daughter received two bruises two days apart from each other in the same exact spot. When I…read moreaddressed it with the director, she just told me that they should've wrote a report, but they had "documented it". Never informing me or my husband about these bruises. As a parent that was a huge red flag to me, I had also taken pictures of it as soon as we noticed them, which was the date of each bruise . After the second one something didn't feel right, considering again it was in the same exact spot and the same exact long line shape. I never received an apology or an explanation as to why my daughter received these bruise on her back thigh near her bottom. For the safety of your kids, I would not recommend bringing them here!

I cannot say enough great things about this center. The owners and staff truly care about the…read morechildren and want to make a difference in their lives. There is no where else I would trust with my babies for early childhood care. My oldest daughter attended from the infant room through the advanced room, and I am so happy that she has a solid foundation not only academically but socially, emotionally, and spiritually as well. Many teachers went above and beyond to help her learn the curriculum and know that she is loved by God and her family and teachers. Even teachers of other classes were positive and encouraging to the kids. My youngest was only able to attend a year and a half before we moved but she had a great experience during her time there as well. It's hard choosing an early childhood center and can be so scary, and I am so glad we were a part of Covenant and had the peace of mind knowing our babies were safe and loved.

My son truly enjoyed his time at Covenant Schools. We've seen good academic growth with him over…read morethe years and it's a great feeling knowing he'll be going into kindergarten with a solid academic foundation. I loved watching his testament, knowledge and love for Christ grow through their curriculum. There was an incident that occurred involving another child (I won't go into details), but I do feel the staff handled everything very appropriately and professionally, keeping us involved and in the loop the entire time. We will miss Covenant and the amazing staff. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts!

I've read some reviews about Menaul that were negative. While I can't speak about the school now, I…read morecan only speak about how it was when I attended from 82-86. I found my voice here. Class sizes were small. We didn't have iPads or computers given to students. I had great teachers. Appreciated dedication of teachers, some I am friends with today. I learned strong work ethic. Appreciated all the kids that left home and lived in the dorms. I didn't. We had mini weeks that were educational. Choir took us to AZ where we sang in Presbyterian churches and stayed with host families. We were the school cleaning crew. Back when I first started going to school there, I worked on campus in the summer to earn money for my tuition to help my parents. Because classes were small, many of my friends are from when I attended there. Many return for homecoming. Many are still involved on the board or alumni committees. We're a family. I'm so grateful for everything I experienced and learned there.

I did not attend Menaul School; nor have any of my children. But, having said that, I still believe…read morethat I have an outsiders' perspective of the school's history and a general educational outlook for students attending Menaul School. What makes me even slightly knowledgeable about Menaul School? My viewpoint comes from working in the Menaul Historical Library of the Southwest, which is housed on the Menaul School campus. In that capacity i have met a number of very successful adults who have attended and graduated from Menaul School. I have read the extensive history of the school (opened in 1896). I have watched the students - both local and international, both day students and boarding students. I have read the school's written history and what this educational institution has accomplished in presenting well-educated, interesting and capable adults to communities around the world. We need more schools that are capable of educating well-rounded contributors to our world. Menaul School is a school that does. Menaul School is a co-educational, college preparatory day and boarding school for grades 6-12. If you are looking for a small, but excellent educational opportunity for your children, don't hesitate to put Menaul School on your research list. (www.MenaulSchool.com) Come visit the campus; meet the staff and instructors; walk this beautiful campus in the heart of the Land of Enchantment. The best future opportunities for your children lie in a great education - they will get that at Menaul School.

This USED to be the most wonderful day care before Ms. Renee got sick and had to leave…read more The new Director Linda is an absolute joke. She is hardly ever in the office, and almost impossible to get a hold of to conduct business with. No members of the staff respect her- and this lack of respect aides in the unhappiness atmosphere of this day care. Although the kitchen staff is quite friendly- none of the food your child will be eating is flavorful or nutritious. Much of it is plastic wrapped pancakes, burritos and I have even seen reheated pizza for breakfast the next day. We ultimately left the day care after our child began having melt downs in the morning's when left with a specific teacher. Another child in the same class was so afraid of "said teacher" that she would wet herself when her mother tried to leave her. Needless to say, they no longer attend little Sunbeams either. Save yourself and your child a ton of frustrations and heartache by choosing another daycare!! And to the daycare board- I hope that you can re-create the loving healthy atmosphere Ms. Renee brought to the daycare, by bringing in a new director.

My 5 year-old son has been attending Little Sunbeams since he was 1 1/2. I drop him off each…read moremorning and know that he will be well tended to and loved. I am so happy that we have a home at Little Sunbeams. We have made great relationships with the other families and the teachers. At each step of his development I can easily say that he was/is in a safe, age-appropriate, caring and inviting place for hands-on-learning and growth. He loves to go to school (Little Sunbeams) and has a variety of friends from Chef John, Brennan in the morning, the Dance teacher on Thursday, Tracey B, Pastor Greg and the Scott in Tuesday chapel, all the teachers, and of course his classmates - all who help form this rich environment. In the past 4 years the center has had changes in staff, as do all business, but I can honestly say that every person who has contact with us or with my son truly has his and our best interest at heart. Renee, the Director, and various teachers throughout our tenure have visited with us to be sure that we are all on the same page. If it is working together on potty training, sitting still in circle time, or how to encourage writing/fine motor skills or it is important that we are all working together for our children's development. Bumps, bruises and spills are inevitable and my experience has been that the staff err on the side of caution and often phone to ensure that a parent is properly notified of anything out of the norm while immediately tending to the child. There is always a written form documenting the incident. We have brought various concerns - either about something with my child or policies at the center- to Renee and/or to our teacher and have felt that we are heard and that we are working together to help my child be both a good little person and developmentally sound. Praise and love are apparent everywhere, but I also appreciate the boundaries and consequences when they are needed. We just received our acceptance letter from Manzano Day School for Kindergarten next year and are sad to be leaving Little Sunbeams in August, but very excited to know that he will be well-prepared for his next chapter in life.

Since it's so hard to find good review for Albuquerque preschools, I decided to help. If you're…read morelooking for a good preschool for your kids, Sunset Mesa is an awesome choice. Why do I like Sunset Mesa? Mainly, unlike other preschools in the area, Sunset Mesa tries hard to be an actual school. Instead of me paying to have someone keep my daughter distracted with Sesame Street and sugary drinks, they try hard to teach her something. Since starting at Sunset, I've noticed that both her reading level and math skills have improved dramatically. My daughter also really enjoys the other students since the teachers keep fighting and bullying out of the classroom. The childrens' parent seen to be mostly Sandia employees or military. Also, a child has to be at least two and potty trained before the school will admit him or her. The price is steep compared to other places in Albuquerque. To me, the place is worth the money. Preschool is definitely somewhere a person gets what they pay for.

We re-enrolled our kids, hoping Sunset Mesa's policies would change for the upcoming year. One week before school starts we receive an email that masks will be optional indoors for unvaccinated elementary students. A parent asked Alan Mask what it would take for him to reconsider his decision and he said that it would take more parents complaining, which goes to show that Sunset Mesa is weighing their bottom line against your child's well being. Delta variant cases are increasing as we speak, but Sunset Mesa wants your money! Sunset Mesa is a business, and your child's well being comes second!

I had a very upsetting experience with La Petite on Quantum rd in Rio rancho and I am wanting to…read moremake more people aware. The staff has been consistently unprofessional, and when I raised valid concerns about my child's care as well as other children's, they were dismissed as "complaining" rather than being properly investigated. Her daycare contract ended 7/31 and I wasn't notified till 8/6/2025 and was told she couldn't return unless the EECED could issue a contract by 8/8/2025 One of my biggest concerns was that my daughter was mishandled by a teacher, and despite reporting this, the staff member remained employed, and I received no meaningful follow-up. I've witnessed staff yanking children by the arms, yelling in their faces, and slamming and pushing on tables leaving children to cry for hours completely inappropriate and unacceptable behavior around young children. Additionally, there are serious hygiene concerns. They wouldn't change gloves or even wipe down the changing table during changes, My daughter would often come home with rashes, and it was clear that diaper changes were not being done regularly.I also observed a lack of proper sanitary procedures, including throwing food into the trash and then serving the plate to the child, spraying cleaning solution on the table while children are still eating which is deeply troubling. When asked if we could potty train our almost 2 year old I was advised not to by admin as they do not have proper staff and couldn't accommodate as she didn't want to have to hire additional staff. They currently have a high turnover. Staff consistently has their phones out during wake times and nap time. There is no consistent communication between parents and teachers, and safety protocols (such as moving tables while children are seated) are not followed. They don't have no structure and let the kids run wild despite saying they are teaching an age appropriate curriculum based daycare. My daughter has had to be rushed to the ER as they had her foot in a string tourniquet from her sock for hours and didn't check her foot we were told she just could put weight on her foot and was exhausted from crying. We called to check in and Admin wasn't even aware of the situation she was just crying uncontrollably and no staff checked her foot despite not being able to put weight on the foot. On Monday her eyes were swollen and red from crying for over an hour with out consoling or helping her re-regulate. I wouldn't recommend this establishment to anyone
