Great small child care center. The owners are very nice. It is bring your own lunch though. They…read moreprovide snacks. in case you forget or don't have lunch they provide something hot for the kids to eat. And give something light for breakfast as well. Your kids will definitely learn as older and younger are grouped together and sit around a table for lesson time. There is a big yard for them to run around. The place could use some updating but nothing really negative to say. If we didnt have.to move we would still be here. I recommend this place to anyone

My son has been going to the Little People's Place for two years, and the only thing we are worrying about is having to leave this little kids' safe haven because we are moving out of the area soon. True, this place has no shiny hardwood floors or fancy furnishings. Instead, they provide your child with plenty of individual warm loving attention; their Creative Curriculum works great to help your little one develop to the best of their ability. The teachers are a wonderful family, very welcoming and open to kids and parents; there have never been any substitute staff. We always get feedback about our son's day, they text us pictures of him playing or discovering the world, they know his likes and needs. Best of all, they CARE. We have a feeling that when my son is gone from here, he will be missed, for real. And we will miss them for sure!

After moving to the area in April I originally had my beautiful daughter Violet put into another…read moredaycare in the area. After a couple weeks I noticed some things I wasn't crazy about the original daycare so we found an opening at the Wright Daycare and switched. I absolutely love this daycare and I am very sad about my daughter going to school in the future because she would spend less time at the daycare. The minute we open the door the owner Mrs. Fawn immediately makes my daughter a breakfast and greets my daughter. She also sits down with my daughter when she gets upset with mom having to leave and go to work. We also enjoy her teacher is Miss Lisa in this LJ. When I come to pick up my daughter she is very excited to come home with me but also sad because she has to leave her daycare and her friends. I also appreciate that the teacher Miss Lisa let's my daughter help out around the daycare and feel like that is a positive influence on my daughter, her behavior has improved greatly since starting this daycare. I give this daycare an A+ five star rating and would recommend it to anyone who asked. We are excited to also start VPK this year in August and in the future my daughter will use this to daycare for a before and after care while in school. I can't recommend this daycare enough!

Make that make sense!!! When parents raised complaints about the rate increases, the upper management (not the owners) told us "if you don't like it, pull your kid out, but childcare here is competitive and VPK is already in session so you won't find a spot". They knew that we would struggle finding a new facility and made us feel trapped. I will say that the teachers at our individual location were wonderful. We loved having our kids in the classes and really benefited from being there

Don't ever being your kids here. As a previous employee I witnessed children being manhandled and…read moretreated unfairly. Kids being pulled tightly by staff, being so rough with their bodies and blaming other kids for bruises that they caused. They won't pay attention to your child if they cry, or if something genuinely happened to them. The workers are snobby and disrespectful and rude to everyone including the children. They definitely have favoritism within the children. The head manager there, Steffany Cougar is horrible to the children when no one is watching. I have witnessed her get in kids faces and scream at them, pull them harshly and drag them away by their wrist. When parents come around she acts as if she is perfect but in reality she's merciful to those poor children. Please don't bring your children here!! Don't work here as well!!

I have never in my life seen such a disrespectful place. They do not want to work with you or your child. If your child is special needs DO NOT bring them they have NO patience. you can tell the teachers have no choice but to agree with the director or they will lose their job. SHE IS A FAKE. THIS place is a joke. I WILL be more then happy to tell as many site as I possibly need to spread the word this is NOT a Christian place. They wont contact you if your child is injured especially by THEM or their negligence! I have walked in on a teacher holding my child in the air by one arm and another letting a kid play with the electrical outlet.

It's unfortunate that I have to post this review, but it's necessary. This daycare has an extremely…read morehigh turnover rate for employees. They have video, but be mindful that "Allegedly"it is only live feed so if something occurs on their watch, then it's your word against theirs. If your child is injured, they never have any answers, they will just say they don't know. Look at the reviews, it speaks for itself. They charge $220 a week, which is an increase of last years rate, just for piss poor care. Who in their right mind wants to send their baby to a facility where they are potentially mistreated, and they had the audacity to increase the rate. There is a 9:30 drop off time, God forbid you're running a few minutes behind they will turn your child around. They have a lot of early closing days, for "training" but for what exactly, they're not even getting properly trained on have to hydrate the kids during the summer months. Do not enroll your child here, they will not have any consistency, there is always someone new in the classroom. New employees come into this facility so quickly, one must question if a thorough background check is completed. I have lost faith in this daycare and it probably is the worst thing that I could have subjected my child to. I should have removed my child from this daycare before now, sadly it took an injury for me to remove my child. And of course, no one knows what happened, they're oblivious and that is unacceptable for a daycare. You know it's bad, when they are offering parents credits to their account to get new enrollees. SMH. They do not care about your child, they only care about having bodies and receiving your $220 weekly. Beware.

**TW CHILD ABUSE**…read more My 3-year-old son went to this daycare center from November 2022-March 2023. He didn't have many issues with his teachers and other classmates aside from the occasional meltdown that all toddlers are prone to. A few weeks after getting a new teacher, Miss Camiyah, he started to complain of her being too rough with him. He said that she yanked his arm when he wasn't listening to her. A couple of days later, he told me Miss Camiyah picked him up by his ear and dragged him to the other room by his ear, while digging her fingernail into it. I immediately called the daycare and made these concerns known to the school director, Jennifer. I was obviously livid, but all I asked was that he be moved to another Childcare Network location (in Niceville). I didn't trust the child-abusing Miss Camiyah after that, and my son developed serious anxiety about being dropped off at the Fort Walton Beach location, because he thought he would be abused again. Jennifer was less than helpful about working with us to find new placement for my son. She claimed they would investigate the matter (they did not) and that they would do everything in their power to find a solution for us. After trying for a few weeks to coordinate a transfer with her, she ended up being very condescending and combative, and it was clear that she had no intentions of helping us find a spot at the Niceville location, nor was she concerned with the fact that she employed a woman who had no qualms about putting her hands on someone else's child. From what I understand, Miss Camiyah still works at the Fort Walton Beach location. I also tried reaching out to corporate about our situation, but I guess they wanted to sweep this matter under the rug as well, because they did not call or email me back. In addition to the physical abuse, I can count on one hand the number of times I entered the building and DIDN'T hear one of the teachers screaming at the children. This place is a circus, and I wouldn't trust any of these women around my goldfish, let alone my son. Unless you want to risk having your child being physically and emotionally abused by the CRIMINALS they apparently hire, I highly suggest finding another daycare.
