Maple bear is a great school with a structured curriculum and educated full time staff. They are…read morewonderful. They require all students to wear a maple bear T-shirt which is great, makes getting ready easy and provides extra layer of consistency. They communicate daily and my son binds so well with the teachers. They only employ full time teachers so that students have the same adults all day. They don't shuffle around to maximize ratios. In fact they keep Their ratios below state standards.

My wife and I enrolled our 7 month old daughter at Maple Bear 3 months ago. She has absolutely…read moreloved her time there so far. From her second day, she gets "excited" to go see her teachers (Ms. Darla, Ms, Kelsey, Ms. Bianca and Ms. Betty) and little friends in Bear Care 2. Originally we hesitated sending her to daycare at all as we were worried about missing out on so much of her critical developmental months, but after seeing how much she enjoys it and how much she has improved at things she used to hate (tummy time, floor time, etc), we know we made the right choice. We also love getting photos and updates on the app throughout the day. Thank you, Maple Bear staff!

You can tell that the teachers truly love children. It is such a wonderful community.

I can't think of a better place to send my child.

I currently have 2 children at Dayspring Preschool and Kindergarten. My oldest child has attended…read moreDayspring for 4 years and I could not have chosen a better place for him. Due to the amazingly qualified and nurturing teachers, I have watched my son blossom into a confident, independent learner. My daughter is in her 2nd year at Dayspring and is having an equally great experience. The teachers have worked with us and have been so patient with her individual needs and challenges. The communication has been extremely open and has been with all of the teachers over the years. Our family has literally experienced every class offered at Dayspring from Parent-tot to Kindergarten and I have only praises for the school, its educators, and the administration.

My son has been going here for 4 years. He has had some Behavorial issues this year so far where he…read morehas had to be picked up for the day numerous times. 2-3 weeks ago we had a zoom meeting and all agreed to do a video call mid-day with the staff and our son to praise him for doing good and to remind him not to bite or hit. That video call we all agreed on happened ONE time a day or two after our zoom meeting and not once since then. When they talk to you about you child misbehaving they talk to you like you're a kid as well "you know biting and spitting is wrong."We (myself and my wife) already know what Behavior is wrong and don't need it spoon fed to us. They also don't really go over what happens. I understand you can't have eyes on every single kid every second. Is he being picked on? Provoked? Etc? He isn't just randomly going up to someone and hitting them for no reason. They didn't really give him a chance to improve or give us the resources they claimed to have available so that makes me kind of sad. I wonder why they expelled him so fast. He has been going there for 4 years. They also haven't had a "principal" for the past 3-4 months. We were already talking about switching daycares a couple weeks ago (though we didn't want to because everyone is nice and friendly) so I guess it's for the best. If your 4 YEAR OLD child isn't an absolute 100% angel and fluent in logical thinking and comprehension of consequences then maybe look elsewhere.

They had VERY poor communication when it came to hand foot mouth outbreak, so we unfortunately had to heal from that. My son was also bitten ON THE FACE by another child, and I also had to take him to the ER after his elbow was dislocated from one of the teachers improperly picking him up. This place needs to be investigated and shut down. We are still suffering.

I am so sad I had to enroll my daughter in another preschool bc I switched jobs and started working longer hours Some of the girls have my number and one of the girls that was there babysits my daughter! Miss Alecia is amazing and my daughter absolutely LOVES her! When I would drop off and if Alecia was there she would run up to her so fast and I was non-existent lol! I always recommend this daycare to my friends with little ones. If I ever switch jobs or get a new schedule, I will definitely come back if they have availability bc my little girl made so many relationships and friends, even with the big kids.

My 4 year-old and 2 year-old sons have been going to Yad B'Yad since 2 years old and 4 months old,…read morerespectively. They both made friends quickly. The teachers know all the kids' names. We love all the activities they do with the kids and they display the artwork on the hallway walls. As a Jewish family, we like how they incorporate Jewish activities around the holidays. There is a mixture of Jewish and non-jewish kids that attend the daycare. Occasionally, they do shabbat services with the kids. The kids really enjoy singing shabbat songs. The teachers take pictures and videos and post them to the daycare's private Facebook page with permission of course. It's great to see what my sons are doing during the day. My 2-year old is obsessed with his teachers and is always attached to their hips because he loves them so much. The daycare is like a small community where the parents are friendly and we all get along. I highly recommend sending your little ones to Yad B' Yad for daycare. Your kids will have a great time learning and having fun at the same time.

We've had our toddler (almost 3) at YBY for almost two years, starting around 13 months of age, and…read moreI have been so happy with the school and community in that time. The small class sizes and thoughtful engagement between the various age groups mean the kids are in attentive care with the most adorable learning activities. Music, dance parties, reading, circle time, outdoor play (and water play in the summer, with reapplication of sunscreen!)--the teachers are creative and caring. Our little guy took over 5 weeks to really adjust to daycare after spending his whole first year at home with his own grown-ups, and the staff were patient and understanding as they tried to help him get into the groove. Now when I pick him up, he always has a friend he needs to hug, and usually a handwritten note about the day's activities. I love that this is a Jewish daycare that does NOT indoctrinate; the kids learn about Jewish holidays, but as it's half-Jewish and half-not, no one is made to feel any religious pressure. They also do a really good job of notifying families and containing the spread of illness when inevitable viruses make the rounds. Hygiene and communication are strong, and the teachers seem to know all of the kids, even outside of the classes they supervise. I would recommend YBY to anyone!
