    We brought our 2 year old here and it was horrible. The teachers would sit in the chair and tell…read morethe kids what to do, but we're not interactive. There was one teacher in particular who would punish children in odd ways. The final straw was when my wife went to pick up our child then three and she was alone in a classroom with a teacher cleaning with no explanation available. When your two and three year old comes home and sits their dolls down and "plays teacher" by yelling at them "I am the teacher, and you will listen to me!" That is not a good sign. Avoid at all costs. This school came to us via recommendation and it was by far the worst experience we had in the area.

    I echo everything the prior reviewer said. There's a sign on the front door saying that the door…read moreis locked, but never, at any point while my daughter was there did they lock the door. The food wasn't great, always sweet items for the afternoon snack like rice crispy treats. The director and the owner were constantly outside smoking by the playground. The director was never there at pick up or drop off times. She never returned calls or emails. They simply don't listen to the parents they're serving. When we finally made a point that no one was returning our emails and that the unlocked door was a problem, the director kicked us out. We didn't have a back up plan so we asked how our daughter could stay. We were given the conditions to not ask about the door lock any more and that we couldn't talk to the other parents about our concerns. We were lucky enough to find another place quickly, and we left Huckleberry's. Two other parents made the same choice. I don't think asking for the door to be locked is any great imposition. The owner however wanted to prove that no one was going to tell him how to run his business and in the process scared off his customers. I hope that other parents understand that if you see anything at Huckleberry's that you don't like, it won't change. Your concerns will go unanswered, and if you dare to ask about something too many times, you'll be asked to leave. Your patronage and the proper care for your child isn't worth more than the owner's pride.

    My son had a half dollar size bruise. This is what Heidi McCaskey, the Director at Lionsgate Child…read moreDevelopment Center, and Glenda Combs (Regional Director for Apple Tree Academies) allow to happen in their care. This is the third time he has been bit by the SAME, KNOWN, biter. He has bitten multiple children, on multiple occasions, over a lengthy period of time. His own teachers call him "the piranha". But yet, because I was upset, and thought they weren't doing enough to protect the children from him, was told "it's not a good fit". We've been there for over a year, and I would challenge them to produce one teacher in that facility that doesn't enjoy my son. But I have heard all kinds of negative comments about the other one. And because he has a difficult home situation, he gets a pass. I'm so heartbroken that my son is being punished. I have even swallowed every bit of pride and practically begged to stay. But "it's not a good fit" because I'm the squeaky wheel. RE: Jamie L's review There is not anything else to the story. The reason I wanted to stay was because I have an anxiety problem and don't deal well with change. The thought of having to introduce my son to new teachers the week before I had to go out of town for work was overwhelming to me, and I had a moment of weakness thinking that staying at Lionsgate would have been the better choice. I am SOOO glad that I didn't get the opportunity to follow through with that. My son has thrived in his new school, and has not been bitten even one time. We are incredibly happy where we are at, and still maintain a relationship with some of the teachers from Lionsgate so that my son can still have them in his life. I NEVER had a problem with the teachers; my problem was always and only with the lack of action by Heidi McCaskey and Glenda McCombs.

    Where to begin with the review??…read more I had the pleasure of bringing my two kids here at an early age. After meeting the assistant director (now director, Heidi McCaskey) I knew I was in the right place. Not only was she super friendly, the teachers seemed great during my walk through! I pulled my kids out of another daycare for issues that they couldn't handle and put them here at lionsgate! Best decision of mine and my kids life. I have never had any issues with the staff and have been there for 5 years. As for the last review, why would you beg to come back if you hate this place?? Seems a little silly you hate the place and yet beg to stay, Just my opinion!! There is obviously more to this situation that is untold. I think it is unfortunate that Heidi is made out to be this terrible person when she has been nothing but awesome to our family. Maybe she cares more about the children and tries to find solutions rather than just kicking them out.
