Day 1 at the daycare.... my 1 yr old son had an accident that required his clothes to be changed…read more When I brought him home & opened the plastic bag that had his dirty clothes in it, it smelled so bad I had to immediately wash them. As I pulled the clothes out of the bag a PILE OF POOP fell out of his clothes into my bathroom sink!!! I understand that accidents happen but common sense tells you not to leave the poop wrapped up in his clothes! The excuse that was made was "I didn't know if you wanted us to wash his clothes at the school." I don't care if you don't wash the clothes but THE LEAST you can do is REMOVE THE POOP!!! I paid $325 for registration, supplies fee, & tuition to have POOP in my sink on DAY 1! I really want to withdraw him TODAY but I want my money back!!!!

So I waited a few months before posting this review. I was nervous about placing my toddler…read moreanywhere in Irving. I toured several places and they were disgusting. Chipped paint on walls, teachers were missing teeth and kids looked dirty. EVERY daycare within a 5 mile radius from our house in Las Colinas was horrible.... Except LCCA. I walked in and was greeted with a smile. The place was very clean and the teachers were outgoing and very sweet. There was a mixture of races in every class so no child felt like the minority. This was very important to me since most of the other daycare's catered to either certain races or economical-class. The rates are reasonable for the area and the facility looks like an elementary school inside instead of a daycare. I would give this place 5 stars if it weren't for two things. 1. They didn't notify parents when the owner tested positive for Flu A. The only reason I knew is because when I went up there to notify them my son was positive, she told me she tested positive for Flu A a week prior. I think it is common courtesy to notify parents to prevent an outbreak... Flu, pink eye, lice.... so you know to look for the symptoms and can address it. 2. They don't pick up for after school care. Which means my older kids have to stay at YMCA at their school. This is a huge inconvenience for parent who have to make 2 stops on the way home. Over all this is a great place to have your little ones. Hands down, this is by far the best option in the North Irving/Las Colina's area.

I had a very disappointing experience with the director and office staff…read more The biggest issue was communication. After I spent significant time and effort rearranging my schedule and preparing for enrollment, no one contacted me to let me know that my child's spot was no longer available. Instead, I later learned that other families had been placed ahead of us and the room was full. What frustrates me most is not simply that a spot became unavailablethings happen. The problem is that no one communicated this to me in a timely manner, despite the impact it had on my family. I wasted time, energy, and effort based on information that was no longer accurate. When concerns were raised, I did not feel that management took accountability for the breakdown in communication. Instead of acknowledging the mistake and working toward a solution, I felt dismissed and unsupported. Parents deserve clear, timely communication when making important childcare decisions. I hope the director and office staff improve their communication practices so other families do not experience the same frustration and stress that mine did.

I waited a few months after enrolling my daughter into a new daycare to provide a fair review…read more Where to begin? There were several unacceptable moments at this daycare and yet I still trusted my daughter to them. 1. As an infant a teacher fell with my daughter in her arms. I wasn't advised I had a couple days to request to view the cameras. They never called an ambulance they just said she was fine. I kick myself in the butt for never taking this further and reporting them. 2. There was a teacher named Jasmine that an incident happen with and they let her go. 3. There was an incident where I arrived to be told my daughter ran into another child face to face collision and she had a huge knot on her forehead. No medical care was provided, I was notified by a teacher that wasn't even in the room or witness to the incident. The teacher caring for her supposedly never noticed or witnessed anything. Laughable, 2 children colliding hard enough to create a big knot on my daughter's forehead would have caused them to both cry. Nonetheless, no one was aware she had a head injury therefore if she would have suffered any symptoms after the fact or even died no one was aware of what occurred until I was notified at pick up and I sent an email out to them addressing that incident and how it was not okay. That's when they expressed they had no idea what had happened until they had to sign the paper notice I signed at pick up. 4. Children biting all the time and no one correcting that behavior. After my daughter was bit a few times she tried to start biting and I correct that behavior immediately. 5. Many other incident and situations occurred, but my last straw was Ms. Lee psychologically impacting my child and forcing her to put her shoes on when my child couldn't. What's worse is I supply shoes without shoe laces and the best part is I was watching the cameras right when this was happening. It lasted minutes not seconds, she proceeded to have my child crying while my child sat on the floor, Ms. Lee was inches from her face saying "God knows what". My daughter's legs were out with knees slightly bent and Ms. Lee decided to press her knee down (continued saying things) and forcing her to get her shoes and put them on. That was it, I had enough and had her removed for the room and made the decision to seek care elsewhere. This daycare is not a daycare, they don't have curriculums, they keep the older kids outside for hours even with extreme heat. They don't have any type of system to teach children consistency, potty training, nor any type of developmental curriculum. This is more like a nanny service, drop off your child, hope for the best and be met with you're just a nagging parent. I made a mistake to trust this place because my older son went to a children's courtyard in Grand Prairie and they were phenomenal. But this location only cares about money and doing the bare minimum. I'm happy to say that my daughter is at a new daycare center (different company) and it has been a success. My daughter has learned and experienced many amazing things and is fully potty trained. This happened in less than 6 months. The curriculum at this new school is high standard, she has done amazing activities, experienced diverse cultures. They don't spend hours outside (especially with it being cold). There is consistency and an actual curriculum with actual learning. Do no waste your money and time at this location, do not regret giving one opportunity after another for them to do right and also, do not have children ages 2-3 and older on the right side of the school (when you enter all rooms to the right), because the teachers yell at the children and they also use profanity. Yes, saying stupid, dumb, or worse profanity is profanity and unacceptable language. Lastly, it got so bad on the right side with Ms. Lee my child was crying on our way to daycare, and when we turned the corner to her classroom she would run back towards the entrance and cry that she didn't want to stay and how Ms. Lee treated her some way. Listen to your child, when they cry in your car driving to daycare (or any location) when they express anxiety or fear to enter a classroom and their facial and physical expression change *huge red flag* do not ignore your child. I drew the line especially when I seen what I seen on camera and it was the best decision I could have made for my daughter that is now in a better place, physically, emotionally and more. I will say the issue begins with corporate, they need to be more involved in what is happening at this location, they need a better system, they need to invest more in actual curriculums and they need to stop covering up their mistakes, now they don't allow parents to see cameras, they review it themselves and then make a determination that is bias. Lastly, they do not offer water and they hardly eat the food supplied at the daycare. Your child will always be hungry and thirsty.

This is an update to my original review as of 5/16/2024…read more Miss Bloomingdale's continues to be such a great school for our youngest daughter. She is now 5, and in the Pre-K/Kindergarten program, and just loves all her teachers there. Miss Chere is clearly one of her favorites. And even though she is not in Miss Chere's class anymore, she always wants to make sure I take her to Miss Chere's classroom so she can say hi to her and give her a hug. But all the teachers continue to be great. And Miss Bloomingdale's as an institution is really an excellent value. For the combination of care, education and tuition rates...they are well worth it. And it's evident that they do the best they can to keep their tuition rates as reasonable as possible while still being able to provide a quality education and stay in business in this highly competitive environment. This is a locally-owned, family-run business that I'm proud to support, and I genuinely feel they have been overall a better fit for our family than other daycares/schools in the area that are most likely cookie cutter franchises -- and more expensive.

When it comes to Miss Bloomingdale's Academy, I get extremely emotional. It's more than a daycare;…read moreit's a place of trust, comfort and relief. From day 1, the staff has shown a nervous and at times, an overprotective mother that this was the right place for our son. Little things such as walking into the building, and EVERY staff member that you encounter says good morning to your child and addresses him by name (yes, even people that are not/nor has been his teacher); it gives you a sense of family. Miss Bloomingdale's molds your child into a well-rounded individual. The focus on learning and development - 5 stars; athletics (swim, soccer and dance classes are offered ONSITE) - 5 stars. Learning good manners and respect - 5 stars!!! The teachers and staff - 5 stars. Had we not moved, my son would without a shadow of a doubt would still be there. In fact, I was more emotional and torn up about him leaving. Thank you Miss Bloomingdale's for the huge impact you've had on my family. Will forever be in our hearts!!!

In the name of Montessori "culture" and private school "policies" they request you to bring your…read morechild for "assessment/ interview" before enrolling into the program. Like I did, you may think this is a good thing as your kid gets to see the school and the Teacher gets to know kid's strengths and weaknesses so that they can help kids in some areas and set them up for the success. If you think like I did, you are wrong, in the name of "assessment/Interview" they regulate admissions. They cherry pick kids & call it company policies. Kids at age 2 or 3 you are supposed to accept all comers just like authentic public schools but they are private franchises and won't thrive for diversity. This is a terrible thing to do and remember they will judge your kid and parenting the minute you walk in the door for the interview. They seek answers for all the questions from their questionnaire, and they judge you kid based on how they feed themselves, toilet practices, language skills etc. when they are just 2 years old; if your kid lacks in some areas (most toddlers do anyway) they just decline the enrollment and confirm you in writing that you toddler is NOT ready for "Toddler" community. Staff at Wonderland Montessori won't even be shy to tell you in writing that if toddler lacks in anyone of those basis tasks at age 2 it would be difficult for a child to catch up to skills, they need to acquire at a rapid pace in their classroom of 14 students. Rapid Pace, what, huh? I was shocked!! Asked them are we still talking about "Toddler Enrollment" in the day care or High school senior enrolling in college? Though I had a terrible experience and short-term agony but I'm happy that in the long-run I liberated my kid from toxic culture and policies. Just beware of this kind of "biased" selection process and remember you always have options for your loved ones.
