    We love Elevate Dance Center!! The new location is in the Raleys shopping center and it has so much more space. They offer a variety of dancing including ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, pointe, hip hop, and even have technique and strength and stretch classes. My daughter has been going here for 6 years and is on the competition and loves it. I have enjoyed watching my daughter grow as a dancer and part of the reason she really loves to dance is the family and environment the owner, Hailey, and the other teachers bring. This is a great studio family and it will not disappoint!!

    Best dance studio in Vacaville/ Solano County. My family loves it here and the teachers teach good values and discipline along with dancing.

Our daughter has autism, and finding a daycare where she is not only accepted but truly understood, supported, and celebrated has meant so much to our family. From day one, the staff has gone above and beyond to learn who she is, understand her individual needs, and find ways to help her feel comfortable and successful. They have been patient, compassionate, encouraging, and willing to think outside the box to help her thrive. They celebrate her accomplishments, no matter how big or small, and continue to encourage her to try new things and grow at her own pace. What means the most to us is that they see our daughter for the amazing child she is--not just her challenges. They recognize her strengths, celebrate her personality, and make sure she feels like she belongs. Knowing that she is surrounded by people who genuinely care about her well-being gives us such incredible peace of mind. The staff has become so much more than caregivers to our family. They have been part of our daughter's growth and have made a meaningful difference in her life. We are incredibly grateful for the love, patience, and dedication they show her every day. If you are looking for a daycare where your child will be cared for, encouraged, and truly seen as an individual, we wholeheartedly recommend Kiddie Academy.

    ZERO STAR STORY -…read more I'm writing this review specifically to warn parents of young children who are considering Kiddie Academy for transportation to and from school. My 4-year-old daughter attended Kiddie Academy for only ONE WEEK, and that one week was enough for me to pull her out. Kiddie Academy was responsible for transporting her to her TK class in the morning and picking her up afterward. I never had concerns with afternoon pickup, but the morning transportation was a completely different story. On her very first day, there was confusion about which school she attended, despite all of her paperwork clearly stating the correct school. Throughout that week, she was also arriving at school 10-15 minutes late. The final straw was when Ms. Mel casually informed me, "We got in trouble this morning because they found your daughter wandering the school campus by herself before she made it to class." When I questioned how that could happen, the explanation I was given was, "We told her to get in line." Ms. Mel also explained that their bus drivers are unable to get off the bus to help young children get to their classes. She is FOUR YEARS OLD. If your transportation policy does not allow your driver to get off the bus, then there should be another procedure in place to ensure a four-year-old is safely transferred into the supervision of school staff. Telling a four-year-old to "get in line" and driving away without confirming that she safely made it where she needed to go was completely unacceptable to me. I pulled her out immediately because I no longer trusted Kiddie Academy to transport her safely. When I raised my concerns with Ms. Nickole, I was also extremely disappointed with how the situation was handled and felt the response and apology were unprofessional and dismissive given the seriousness of what happened. I'm sharing this because other parents deserve to know about my experience before trusting this facility with transportation. My daughter was there for only one week, and that was one week too long. I would never recommend Kiddie Academy to anyone I love or care about, especially if you are relying on them to safely transport a young child. Response to owner: I want to clarify that the complaint being closed as "unsubstantiated" does not change what occurred. That is exactly why I question whether the lack of documentation is designed to protect the children or protect the business. A four-year-old being found wandering a school campus unattended after transportation should have warranted formal documentation and immediate notification to the parent--not a casual comment later. Your response also suggests that young children benefit from "fewer transitions." Kiddie Academy offers transportation to young children. If your transportation procedures cannot safely accommodate a four-year-old, then that service should not be offered to children that age. Responsibility should not be shifted onto parents for utilizing a service your business provides. A licensing investigation resulting in no citation does not erase what happened or what was communicated to me by Kiddie Academy staff. Parents can read both sides and decide for themselves whether this is the level of supervision and accountability they are comfortable with for their child.

So we purchased 5 lessons with Ava and we are sure glad that we did! During the first lesson, Ava helped us pick out our wedding dance song -- she listened to a few of the songs and was quickly able to tell us which one would be best and most fun to dance to. We ended up doing a swing step! She is an excellent teacher. She crafted our wedding dance out of thin air and adjusted the dance moves to our skill level. She was amazing at pinpointing errors and helping us adjust arm movements to make the dance flow better. She taught us how to lead and follow, spin, turns, box step, and even a lift! Our guests were floored during our dance routine! Even a month after our wedding, my husband and I will break out into dance with the moves that we learned from Ava! It was one of the best investments we made!

Upon arrival I told the young female receptionist I had joined online through One Pass and probably needed to sign my waiver, download their app for check ins (I assumed), and get class information, etc. Instead of welcoming me in any way she told me twice they don't do One Pass. I tried assuring her I had received confirmation (from Club Pilates). She asked if perhaps my membership was through Class Pass because they didn't participate with One Pass. I told her I was given a member code to give to them. While I searched my phone for the code she exasperatedly asked for my name. It was at that time she put down the towels she was folding. She looked on her computer, and said, she found it. I signed the waiver, asked my questions - including how much private lessons cost? She replied, "oh they cost a lot of money." She never told me how much. I left. I felt so unwelcome. I wondered if she just didn't want to do her job or didn't want me there. Her sheer lack of effort, condescending, and lackadaisical attitude made me wonder should I cut my losses and find another gym? After careful consideration I decided that she didn't get to decide my fate so I scheduled my first class with Madi and loved it! I haven't seen that receptionist since and hopefully she's gone. Lol. The gym is small and intimate with reformer machines. Classes range from beginner to advanced pilates daily. The location is at the Outlets near Peets Coffee with shared parking. Like the gym but minus 2 stars for the front desk representative.

My kid has made pancakes (didn't pour them or cook them), no-bake cookie bites and "moose crunch". The pancakes he came back with were two cookie cutter size pancakes. There was 4 small No-Bake cookie bites. The moose crunch was literally Cheerios and a little bit of marshmallows and m&m candies in a snack size bag. There was no cooking whatsoever, he's done nothing but assemble ingredients and wash dishes. So he's come back home with $0.60 worth of ingredients. A $177 class! There is ZERO communication from this person. I got ONE email from her the entire time we were registered and it states they're going to charge parents for being late and will charge parents for takeaway boxes. This lady is LATE EVERY CLASS and she always ends the class early! Today was the ONE class my kids were to attend because SHE cancelled 2 of the 3 classes for the month so we got there at 10:00, as it says in the ONE email I got, and the lady at reception told me the class was moved to 9:30! This lady didn't bother emailing or calling or texting that there was a time change! I paid $352 for my two kids to NOT ATTEND EVEN ONE CLASS, and you better believe she doesn't bother reimbursing! I really wanted to love this program, my son absolutely loves cooking but WOW, I have never encountered such an unprofessional business ever. Don't waste your money, don't waste your time, you will be disappointed and what's worse, your kids will be disappointed.
