Absolutely wonderful daycare! When we moved here, we looked in Google and scheduled a tour and were…read moresold! The facility is highly decorated, cleaned daily, and I was impressed with how well-things run. It's more like a school than a daycare. My kids LOVE their time at "school" and come home with the cutest crafts and songs. Suzanne, the owner, knows what she's doing and keeps us in the loop of everything. I didn't know this when we started but I was so thrilled to hear that even the daycare children have a daily curriculum. My daughter is learning so much, she told me all about volcanos yesterday and she's not even in preschool yet. The staff is well-trained and delightful to work with. Like every person we've interacted with has been helpful and thoughtful (where do you find so many great teachers??) I don't understand all the negative comments here because that hasn't been our experience at all. We are big fans of Little Tiger Academy!

I made the decision to pull my children from this daycare because I can no longer trust them with…read moremy babies' safety or wellbeing. My 1-year-old has a life-threatening egg allergy, which the daycare was well aware of. Despite multiple reminders, he was repeatedly exposed to egg 2-3 times a week. That's not a mistake--it's negligence. Every day I dropped him off, I worried it might be the last time I saw him alive. On top of that, my 8-month-old's personal formula, diapers, and wipes--which I purchase out of pocket--were consistently used on other children. I was rarely given back everything I brought each morning, and I had to wait 15-20 minutes most days to pick them up because parents are kept in the lobby, unable to check on their own kids. I paid thousands of dollars a month to this facility, yet it felt like I had to supervise their staff every single day. My job is to work and provide, not to constantly fear for my children's safety in a place I trusted to care for them. Parents, be aware: if your child has any medical condition or specific care needs, look elsewhere. No family should have to live with this kind of anxiety, especially while paying a premium for care.

Disclaimer: I am the "over protective" mama that does the endless research, tours a dozen…read morefacilities, and asks a million questions before choosing a program to put my kids in. I LOVE LITTLE ORCHARD KAYSVILLE! Just by meeting the program director (Michelle Paez) you get a sense of the high standard Little Orchard PreSchool is held to. My 3.5 y/o has a speech delay, mild sensory sensitivity, and severe separation anxiety. Ms. Michelle reassured me that the staff are prepared to help kids with any transitioning difficulties they may experience. They are INCREDIBLY empathetic and patient with each student, my son actually hung out with Ms. Michelle his first 2 days of school and once he felt safe with her; she helped him transition into the classroom without her. The level of compassion and respect they give to our kids is outstanding. Other things I found note worthy... - CLEAN: The facility has a modern and updated interior. The layout is simple and very clean/organized. - STRUCTURED PROGRAM: The program is Montessori based and is very much routined and structured. They have a set daily schedule and implement early education skills (reading, writing, etc.) - GREAT COMMUNICATION: The program director is the bridge of communication between you/your kids and the teachers. This makes communicating thoughts and concerns consistent and easy! If I have a concern about my son, I can just call, text, or email Ms. Michelle and she does the rest. I decided to write this review bc last week I noticed a bruise on my son's face on a day he had school. I reached out to Ms. Michelle and asked if she could check in with his teachers and see if he had an accident or hurt himself. She called me and said that she had talked to all of staff that interacted with my son AND she personally reviewed footage from his school day to make sure there weren't any incidents where he could have been hurt. I just felt very impressed with the level of safety precautions and immediate communication to re-iterate that our children's safety is their top priority. - COMMUNITY: There are activities that families can participate in that make it fun easy to interact with the school community. - PROCARE APP: Little Orchard has a smartphone app where you can sign in/out your child from school, get personal updates from teachers, get pictures/summaries of activities the kids are doing in real time, update personal information, pay tuition, direct message the staff, etc. The app is user friendly, easy to navigate, and makes it easy to never miss an update! Long story short; if you want a community that will enable your kids to thrive socially, emotionally, physically, and academically, CHOOSE LITTLE ORCHARD!

The staff is wonderful and patient. The school is clean and inviting. We really love this preschool!read more

My Eldest child is on the Autism Spectrum, and Miss Jolynne made it possible for me to mainstream my daughter in pre-school. Every day, I wish that Miss Jolynne were a teacher in the public school system! Of all the grade-school teachers my daughter has had, Miss Jolynne has been the one that has best cared for my special-needs child. There was a lot of genlte-encouragement, on Miss Jolynne's part. And at the end of two years, Miss Jolynne had prepared my daughter to enter Kindergarten. My middle child is finishing up her second year at Start Smart Preschool. Middle child is pretty typical, and she has done very well at Start Smart too. I feel like she's ahead of the game, thanks to the tactics Miss Jolynne emlploys. Miss Jolynne uses a lot of repetition to help the kids learn the alphabet, and the corresponding sounds that each letter makes. There are different "Units" that are focused on each month, like: number units, color units, weather units, and so on... The age-appropriate academia is perfectly balanced with Social/"Fun" time too. The kids get free-play. And Miss Jolynne plans excellent field trips. Also, the kids participate in Pre-school programs, twice a year! Another "edge" that Start Smart Preschool has over other, local, preschools is that it is 2.5 hours long; as opposed to the usual 2 hours. The 3-year-old class meets Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 12:15PM-2:45PM. And the 4 year old class meets Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdays from 9AM-11:30AM. I think that having preschool consecutive days is genius! It helps the kids get used to going going to school several days in a row. I haven't found another preschool that better preps children to enter Kindergarten, than Smart Start does. Start Smart Preschool's enrollment period starts at the beginning of January, for the following academic year. And believe me, this preschool is "in demand" so, get your precious little-one signed up as soon as registration opens up.

Our youngest started in the tiny tots class and is now in the preschool program. All of the teachers are so sweet and you can tell they genuinely care about the kids. Nicole and Tiffany made the transition into preschool for both of my boys so easy. They felt safe and comfortable being away from me and that peace of mind is such an important thing for all of us. My boys truly loved them both! The date-nights they offer are such an awesome bonus as well. I'm not very trusting with a random babysitter so it's so nice having a place they can go, where they are already comfortable, I know they are safe and it's honestly a great deal as well. We are so grateful to have found Kool Kidz.
