Ms. Carole ensures every child is not only cared for but loved and seen. She provides a curriculum for the children and engages everyone at their own levels according to their needs. She also provides nutritious meals and snacks. We always receive updates throughout the day along with photos and videos. My kiddo is always bringing home clever arts and crafts! She takes the time with each child to provide them a safe space to grow and learn at their own pace. Our experience with Ms. Carole has been nothing short of amazing. Our daughter actually runs into her arms on a daily basis and is always extremely happy to see her. This daycare has far exceeded my expectations and I'm so happy my child will be taught by a loving, caring, and generous person. My husband and I are extremely confident we've chosen the best possible person to care for our daughter, so much so we will not be moving out of the area any time soon! We plan to continue to utilize Ms. Carole and her daycare services for years to come.

It's never easy leaving your little ones, and finding a good place is a daunting task. Luckily, our friends--who've had both their daughters attend--notified us that she had an opening, so we jumped on the opportunity. Ms. Carole provides breakfast, lunch, snacks, as well as tons of enrichment activities and play throughout the day. She also sends photos and text updates during the day so you get to see what the kids are up to. Our daughter loves going to Ms. Carole's and is always excited to show us her artwork when we pick her up. If she has an opening, we highly recommend that you give her a call and go check out the Fun Factory.

I do not recommend this school, I took a tour yesterday, the lady at the main office was very kind…read more I proceeded with the walk through of the school. Everything seemed organized & clean. I got to meet the 2 year class, were my 2 year old was going to attend, unfortunately the teacher didn't greet my daughter who was going to attend that particular class. Besides that, the teacher didn't seem happy to be there, her expression on her face wasn't pleasant & she was very, un enthusiastic towards the kids. I also noticed that she sung a song to the kids, which was awesome, crazy but I also noticed, the teacher giving a snack to only about two kids, there were more that 5 kids in the classroom, she also didn't WASH HER HANDS During snack hand out. I hated to observed so much, but my children deserve a communicable, enthusiastic, clean welcoming teacher. I'll continue to do my search.

When I say I was terrified to send him to daycare/preschool, I mean it. I had no idea how he would act with no family around, with teachers, and structure. From the first meeting we had the staff at Grow Smart has been PHENOMENAL. They continue to reassure me that toddlers need to get used to structure and the discipline of a classroom setting, and that they are prepared for the transition. The staff is so kind, understanding, down to earth, and compassionate. I trust them to provide our son with the best care, and as a parent that is priceless. We pay out of pocket with no government assistance, and it is worth every penny for the comfort and relief of knowing our son is safe. Thank you Grow Smart!! Also- this is an academic daycare/pre-preschool. So not only is he getting social interaction, and learning patience and discipline, but they teach them there basic numbers, letters, and more!

The teachers are incredibly loving and thoughtful. I especially love the fact that they celebrate birthdays and holidays and create opportunities for parents to get to know each other, too. My child has grown by leaps and bounds, and his interactions with the other children are fun to see. The fact that meals are provided (bfast, lunch and snacks) is a godsend. Several daycares/preschools in the region claim to be Spanish immersion but aren't actually (e.g., they speak English to the kiddos). At Lulus, I feel like we get a truly authentic Spanish immersion program for our son, knowing instruction is exclusively in Spanish. And it shows. My son 100% understands Spanish when it is spoken to him and he mixes Spanish and English in his vocabulary regularly. I credit Lulus for a large part of that bilingual ability and look forward to seeing his fluency improve in the years to come. Highly recommend Lulus!!

I cannot recommend this daycare based on my family's experience…read more From the time my children were enrolled, I had ongoing issues with billing. I was quoted one monthly tuition amount during enrollment, but after my children started attending, I was charged significantly more than what had been discussed. In addition, I experienced repeated billing errors, and I often had to reach out to have charges corrected. It was frustrating to constantly question whether my bill was accurate. We did love Ms. Isis and Ms. Kelly they were so nice and compassionate with the kids. My biggest concern, however, was the daycare's handling of staff conduct. I learned that there were concerns about a teacher being rough with children, and I was disappointed by how the situation was handled. As a parent, I expect any concerns involving children's safety and well-being to be addressed promptly and communicated appropriately. Because of the ongoing billing problems and my concerns about how serious issues were managed, I made the decision to disenroll my children. I hope the daycare improves its billing practices, communication, and accountability so other families have a better experience.

To which she and I replied that he does need to go so he can tell her all the new things he has found. Our youngest started here at 6 weeks because I had to go back to work, to say I trust her would be an understatement!

Only regret we have is not starting her earlier. So thank you again for all you do!" This place is really a gem. If I could give it 6 stars I would.

My two children both attended Kindercare from the age of three months through last Christmas…read morebreak... They are 6 and 8 now. To rate a child care center poorly because your "baby cried" is like condemning the state of Washington because it rained. It wasn't a perfect journey, because whose childhood is, but this place feels like home to both of my kids. From the desperate, sobbing mornings leaving my infants behind (Teacher Esae trying to convince me that if I leave quickly, it will hurt less for everyone), to the excitement of my daughter taking a cooking class at four years old, this center really spanned the gamut of positive experiences for both kids, and for two parents who both had to work to make ends meet in this outrageously expensive city. My son did get bullied. But the center can't prevent terrible parents from raising terrible children. Any incident was reported promptly and the staff did absolutely everything they could to keep my child (and several others) away from the bully. Eventually, the center reported that the child no longer attended Kindercare, and our gratitude for that resolution endeared the staff to us even more. The center also accommodated bus delivery of my son to a nearby elementary school to which they had never bussed before, though they certainly weren't obliged to. Through covid, they were an absolute godsend as both my husband and I were required to report to work as first responders. The center was helpful and understanding as we all navigated the new normal. Occasionally, during random school breaks, we will still need to call on the center for a week or two of care, and director Celia always leaves the door open for us. This year, she even went out of her way to fully understand the new, complicated care protocol for our son's diabetes diagnosis/treatment. At no point did we ever feel uncertain about leaving our children there. In particular, teacher Shonda and Miss Barbara have made our kids' lives so much better, and they will always have a special place in our family's memories. The cost of daycare is crippling. That's just a fact. But this center does not set their own rates, corporate obviously does, so throwing a fit about it on a review forum is absolute ignorance. The standards that this staff sets for their individual care and attention, as well as amicable and reassuring relationships with the parents, is exactly what we were looking for in a daycare, and it was delivered in spades. 10/10, very highly recommended.

My kids love their teachers and all the activities that they do, especially during summer time. The daily schedule for the classrooms has several activities to keep their minds active and busy. They also provide transportation to and from my daughters school which helps immensely! If you're looking for excellent child care, they are definitely the best option!
