I cannot rave enough about Promiseland Learning Center and all of its staff!!…read more My son started in the "young Two's" classroom about a year ago, and has transitioned through two classrooms since then and into the Pre-K class. They keep the child-to-teacher ratio relatively low in comparison to other preschools I have toured, and they all seem to know my son by name as they greet us coming and going each day (and not just his teachers, but seemingly the entire staff, which is awesome)! My son had never been to any type of daycare when I first took him to PLC as I previously worked from home. When I initially enrolled him, he started as a twice-per-week student, was extremely independent and had low-level communication skills. Over just his first 2-3 months as a part-time student, I saw a major improvement in his social and communication skills, and quickly decided to begin taking him three days per week. It wasn't long after that, we started him full-time and I am so happy we did, as his skill level went through the roof (and also became potty-trained much faster than I'm sure it would have taken without their help)!! He comes home talking about his teachers (Ms. Ashley and Ms. Tierra, whom he LOVES) and all of his friends, which always makes me really happy, knowing that he's happy. Ms. Caren and Ms. Sal are also AMAZING to work with. They are always extremely communicative, flexible and happy to accommodate parents' needs when possible. If we weren't moving way down south, I would have, no-doubt, stayed with PLC as long as possible until my son starts kindergarten. I'm totally sad to say goodbye, but I'm excited for whoever gets the open spot my son is leaving behind!!

My daughter comes home with stories of what she did with her teachers that day and it makes me happy knowing she is being well taken care of.

He is always learning something new and grows each and every day with more knowledge and confidence. I genuinely can feel the love and care that goes into each student here and am so grateful to everyone that makes this school such a special place. The teachers prepare mindful and very thoughtful activities for the students and also because of the low teacher to student ratio, the teachers can really get to know each student on a level that I haven't seen elsewhere. Everyone is so thoughtful and kind and I cannot recommend Child's Day enough.

I love that the kids are learning at a Christian based environment, They pray before breakfast and lunch and attend chapel once a week. They sing Christian songs, and learn child friendly prayers. At 4 my son could recite the Lord's Prayer (along with others). I am pleased that both breakfast, hot lunches and pm snacks are provided and included with the tuition. Despite tuition going up this year, it is still very good and competitive especially for the education that they receive. The teachers I've been blessed to have had genuinely care for the students and show a desire to teach them. By the time my oldest left, everyone in the class was reading on their own. My hat goes off to all the teachers who helped contribute towards this accomplishment. The kids were so well prepared for kindergarten. Other parents along with myself have all confirmed that by the time the kids entered kindergarten (both in private and public schools) that their child was at the top of their class in the math and reading skills. This is not an exaggeration! The school just became NACE (sp?) accredited which means they have been awarded the highest recognition that a facility can be awarded. This is not a daycare, but truly a learning center for children. The school recently built a brand new playground for the three and ups, which is a very nice improvement. The younger kids have a separate playground with toys tailored for them. This school is tailored for the working parent, and for the most part only close for Federal holidays. It is nice knowing that I don't have to find an alternate facility during summer and winter breaks. I can totally depend on one! I love this school so much that I sent my youngest son here (but of course!). He is now in the 3 year old class, and is learning so much. It thrills me when he comes home and shares with me all the things he's learned. This school is a blessing and a gem! I would highly recommend this school to anyone, and can honestly say it's the best out there...hands down!

Mrs. Kisha and Mrs. Pat appreciate my daughter's individuality and promoted creativity. They dance, sing, make art, learn letters, and tell fantastic stories! I am so grateful and feel confident that I had a safe and loving space for my child. I never hesitated when I drop her off in the morning, and they are always playing happily when I pick her up in the afternoon. Leaving Mount Sinai Christian Academy only because they do not have infant care and I needed both of my children to attend the same daycare. My child and I will miss Mount Sinai Christian Academy.

I would strongly suggest staying away from this facility at all costs. In the less than one year…read morethat our daughter attended this school, the following occurred. * A teacher instigated an altercation with a parent with absolutely no recourse from school management. * 9/16/22: I witnessed an assistant alone with 8 children, screaming at one child in his face to sit down or she would make him sit down. The "solution" was for this assistant to never be alone with children again and she was "coached". I subsequently witnessed this assistant alone with children again on 9/23/22 and she was ultimately moved to another age group on 9/30/22. One can only assume so that I wouldn't witness her interacting with children alone again. * Marked disorganization and inconsistency within the jellyfish room specifically. * Our daughter was bitten twice. * Our daughter sat in soiled diapers for too long resulting in painful diaper rash, even complaining to her dad on occasion at pick up that her booty hurt and she really needed her diaper changed - something she's never asked for until our time at CCOA. * I've picked her up twice with pus pouring out of her ear that teachers did not notice. * I witnessed a teacher wipe our daughter back to front on several occasions (this did not improve even after I brought it to management's attention). * The jellyfish classroom had two teachers abruptly depart without notice. * Numerous personal items went missing despite being labeled with our daughter's name. * Numerous items that were not our daughter's were sent home with her. This shows the disorganization of the room. * Labeled children's bins in the wrong cubbies with wrong personal items in them. Again, showing the disorganization of the room and of the teachers this school chose to hire. * Unclear and inconsistent instructions for splash pad days leading to miscommunication and frustration. * Very rare (less than once a week) photos of our daughter despite repeated pleas for frequent pictures. * A few months ago, I witnessed a mother drop her infant off with a teacher who was strolling the other infants around in the large multi-baby stroller. The teacher said that she would just hold the baby because the last available seat had a broken seatbelt. When I came back around the corner after dropping our daughter off, the mother was gone and that baby was "strapped" into the broken seat. Unacceptable and dangerous. Again, choose another daycare provider for your children.

It makes me sad to have to write this review but I'm hoping what happened to us at the Children's…read moreCenter of Austin, Westlake doesn't happen to another family. My son attended the Children Center of Austin, Westlake location from mid January to mid April, 2024. He was 6-9 months old while there. Our top priority has always been the safety and well-being of our son, yet incidents underscored our concerns regarding his safety while under the care of CCOA. Our son was diagnosed with severe food allergies and had a few occasions of anaphylactic shock. Luckily never while at daycare but for the third time in a month, our son was placed in a different classroom without us knowing, the substitute teacher was NOT aware of his anaphylactic allergies and did NOT know the location of his Epi-pen. Senior management's response was to keep changing policies with the latest one being that they wanted his Epi-pen to be located outside the classroom, such as at the front desk or office, but there were many occasions when we've arrived and found no one at the front desk or office -- this left us deeply troubled and indicated a sever lack of understanding about the urgency of anaphylactic allergies. Furthermore, the continued misidentification of our son as another kids name by staff members added to our concerns. This oversight continued to reflect a lack of attention to detail. Senior leaderships response was 'we can understand the teachers continued mistake as your son and the other kid do look similar.' The similarities are that our kids both have the same eye color and hair color. There were MANY other smaller issues: sent home wearing other kids diapers and clothes, terrible diaper rash on multiple occasions (even after raising concerns from our doctor to Senior Management), using other kids diaper cream on our kid, photos loaded to the app that were not our child, misrepresentation of what our kid ate listed on the app... the list goes on. We exhausted all avenues in attempting to resolve these issues with Senior Management but unfortunately, issues continued to arise, leaving us with no choice but to prioritize our son's safety above all else and leave. We cannot recommend this school as a safe environment for children. The evident deficiencies in leadership undermine their ability to create a secure and nurturing setting. Until meaningful changes are made at the leadership level, we fear these issues will persist, ultimately impacting the well-being of the children under their care.

Our child's gross motor skills excelled while at Wholesome. The play learning and lots of outside time gave my child opportunities they wouldn't have had at other preschools/daycare centers to use their body and discover nature in a whole new way. Additionally, I really appreciated not having to prepare lunches and snacks for my child and that there was zero screen time while at school. At times, the school's ideas were so large and grand they were hard to capture, coming across as unorganized. The love and energy put into the school made up for that aspect. We moved on to (public) kindergarten for a more traditional academic education. I'd give Wholesome 4.5 stars if possible. No where is perfect but love and kindness goes a long way when raising children and making the best decision for them. In summary, we loved Wholesome Generation and would highly recommend it overall.
