Overall, I give this school 4/5 stars at this time because, for me, the most important aspects of…read morechildcare are quite strong, and there is some room for improvement. We've been there 1.5 years. The strengths start with the staff--almost all staff are engaged (read: not on their phones, willing to conference and work with parents), and pleasant. Another strength is their policies -- the ratios they require are better than DHS, they implement and advertise policies for safety (eg, parents don't be on cell phone at pick up). Plus, the Montessori curriculum is actually implemented in classrooms--it's not just a daycare holding place. We moved from another daycare and my child's physical and cognitive development skyrocketed when we Changed schools. Now, the school is in a huge old house, so it's not fancy in material but they regularly repair and have an excellent playground the kids visit 1-2 times daily. I find it perfectly quaint. The limits right now are on communication about big changes. They have a monthly newsletter that's brief and helpful. They lack other infrastructure for communicating with parents that really works--some have a Facebook page, some rely on texting parents...but it's not consistent or multifaceted enough to catch everybody (eg some people email, some need flyers). I've learned about big changes by noticing something and asking, Like a new teacher joining or combining two classrooms. My other issue is with nutrition, which plays a big role in child behavior, mood, and development . "Snack" is often processed food with few nutrients (eg Cheez its, graham crackers), and hot lunch is better but not great. Now, we compensate by bringing our child's lunch, but she eats most or more of her allotted sugar each day at school snacks and doesn't get many important nutrients from the food provided.

My daughter has been a part of Bright Ideas since around August of 2015. She started off at the…read moreBryant location and then we moved to Sherwood in October of 2015. I was worried about the transition especially because she doesn't seem to do well with change and also because she had loved the Bryant Bright Ideas so much that I didnt think another daycare could top it. I was very surprised! She adjusted immediately and loves going to school here! She is 3 years old, has great teachers and all the other staff members are so nice and welcoming as well. Even the lady that runs this location is as nice as she can be. She always says "hi" and "bye", "have a great day." My daughter is always coming home telling me what she has learned that day and how much fun she had. I always feel like my daughter is being well taken care of, being treated right, learning, and is safe. Which is so important with childcare. If my daughter is ever sick and running fever, they call me right away and I'm able to run and get her. I've had a previous encounter with a daycare that wouldn't tell me when she was sick, so this is something very important to me. I also know that someone can't just come in the school and check her out. They use a thumbprint system and if you send someone else to get your child, you have to write a note with your DL beside it, take a picture of it, and email it to the school. I love the extra steps that help ensure my childs safety!

First let me start by saying that I personally don't believe that there is a daycare out there that…read morecan take care of my child as good as me! However, Ms. Carrie's Day School treated me and kid like family. My daughter started there at 10 weeks old and stayed there until she was 3 years old. They nurtured her, helped potty train, and made sure that she met her milestones. The owners and director were great at communicating with me and if I had an issue they made sure we came to a solution. The only reason that my daughter left this daycare was because I felt like she outgrew the daycare and needed to start school. I love Ms. Carrie's Day School. Now I will say though once my baby got old enough to hit the playground, she would come home looking like a dust bunny! lol That was frustrating but realistically they can only do so much. A kid is going to be a kid.

After a terrible experience with our previous daycare, we decided to tour this facility. We were…read moreimmediately impressed. The building was bright, clean, and smelled fresh (I don't know how they do it!). The price was great and it was close to our home. We moved our daughter to this school and kept her there until she was preschool age. She just needed more school-oriented projects, rather than daycare, at that point. But I do believe Kid's Academy provides the state recommended curriculum for the appropriate ages. There is incredibly low turnover here. The staff is wonderful, minus one or two individuals but that's just life. They are regularly open and trustworthy. We moved 10 miles one-way from the school but still decided to place our son with them after failing to find a place closer to our home that was both affordable and acceptable. I wish they were closer, but we love them!

Our son has developed so much socially and intellectually during his time here. I recommend this location wholeheartedly.
