Many of the teachers have been working at the center for years, and the director, Ginny Simoneau, is wonderful. Everyone there truly cares about children, and they understand kids and how to help them develop and learn. My daughter had separation issues and can be, well, a bit difficult at times...her teachers handled everything with patience and grace. They always had a kind word for me, and I found them very encouraging and positive. The center also is more flexible about their schedule than many preschools/daycares. I used the center as a preschool, but many working parents had their children stay on in the afternoons. You can pick which days you want your child to attend, which was perfect for me since I was working in the office part of the time and at home part of the time. And it always smells like cookies or cinnamon French toast when you walk inside in the morning! It doesn't get any better than that.

This Academy/Pre-School has one of the best curriculums I've ever seen. I was always intrigued by…read morethe montessorie approach to learning, but was hesitant because it lacked the real world aspect. However, BELA combines both the montessorie approach with the traditional approach (best of both worlds). They have some of the most dedicated teachers (who are all certified). And in addition to that, the school sits in a 54 acre campus, so the kids get to hike and do all of the outdoorsy stuff. This pre-school is aimed at those who want the best for their kids without breaking the pocket. The prices are very competitive and the kids get the ultimate experience. I can't wait until my little one is old enough to attend.

Sending our first child to a daycare was definitely an anxiety-ridden experience. When we toured…read moreKindercare, everyone was so kind and knowledgeable. After touring at least 8 other daycares, we chose to go with Taney Ave. The location was perfect for us and the cost even better. Let me start by saying that Kindercare on Taney Avenue has been one of the best places for us and for our son. Every single teacher knows our name, and always greets us with a smile. When we drop our son off and he decides to have a tantrum, they immediately know what to do to make sure he is smiling within 30 seconds. We are kept up-to-date on his experience during the day and even get to see pictures of his activities. When we were having trouble transitioning him over from purees to solid foods, Kindercare helped us make the transition so much easier. He gets outside time and loves playing with the other children. He loves his teachers too! For a kid who is going through stranger danger phase, I've never seen him run to anyone like he does Ms. Vicky and Ms. Eva (besides our family). In situations where there is a problem (sickness, emergency, etc) Kindercare immediately informs us, even if he fell over and scraped his knee. We are always the first to know within less than a half hour of the situation. They keep us updated through phone call, email, and their app. If they are concerned at any time for his health, they are very straightforward about the situation. I have to say I appreciate that considering how much more experience they have than I do. I am grateful for every teacher and director at Kindercare on Taney Avenue and we will be so glad to see our son grow with them. Thank you all for making this a wonderful experience.

As a grandparent picking up my grandson there I would say the teaching staff was always lovely. I…read morewill also say to their detriment is that La Petite is concerned about their money first and foremost . My daughter gave a full time tuition. They made her sign a paper stating when the child would be dropped off/ picked up even though her work schedule was variable weekly ... and they knew that. If she arrived later than the time they made her state then they wouldn't allowy grandson to attend that day.,. Even though they received full time tuition. I quickly leadned that they did that to observe only necessary teacher - student ratios to pay the least hourly teacher wages possible. Also, many times at the end of the day, your child would be in another classroom because they had already sent your child's classroom teacher home and put them with another teacher until uou arrived .... Also to save them money. Management seems nice but is not transparent at ALL. Be wary. Get what you pay for and be sure to ask about full time tuition and open hours . Bonus : They also like to send kids home for any health reason they can imagine.

I can honestly say that I am beyond grateful for the family we have found at La Petite. The staff and teachers care. They love my daughter, they nurture her, they are shaping her to be a wonderful human during some of the most important developmental years of her life. It brings me joy to know that when she's not with me I can rest assured that she is still being loved and cared for by people who want to see her be happy and succeed in life. This place is an extension of home. I will be forever in their debt for helping me raise such a great kid.

What's the point of paying for swim lesson if they keep canceling class and they only allow you to make up one class between sessions.

There should be some better communication there.

Let's start from the top, administration. Lauren and Laura are WONDERFUL. If there's any issues, concerns, or you just want to give feedback, they are open to it. Communication is great, via HiMama, phone calls, or emails. The staff, I love them. My twins are there and throughout their growth and transition to different classes, it has been a great experience. Ms. Megan, Ms. Morgan, Ms. Stephanie, Ms. Marissa, Ms. Katie, Ms. Beth, Mr. Troy are just to name a few (please charge it to my head not my heart those I didn't mention). When I say the staff at Celebree Spring Ridge care, I mean it. As parents you want your children in a safe, healthy learning environment. Celebree Spring Ridge is the place. From infants to school-age, they're the best in my opinion. If you're considering enrolling your kid(s), attend the open house, go visit the location, you'll sign up! With any daycare, cost is a major factor. It's worth the money AND there is assistance for those that are interested (check with them for more details). I wholeheartedly stand by my review. Good luck in your daycare search, put Celebree Spring Ridge on your list of places to check out!

Love Celebree! They provide such phenomenal education and nurturing care for all children!!read more
