The motivation center is a place where you can earn toys like a wig, pop its, nerf guns, play - doh, cool face masks and even pop toys! To earn things, form the motivation center you need to earn tokens from each session, for the first session you get double tokens (16). Each session is 8 tokens. With the tokens you can get things from the motivation center. The tutors are great! :D They have helped me to write an extended R.A.C.E.R to an MLA essay. There are multiple tutors. It's like going to school but int the afternoons. (I love school and Sylvan learning) ;)

The teaching staff here is incredible. They pay special attention to each student's needs and create a very workable and comfortable atmosphere. They break the custom of uptight professionality and let their own personalities take over their working personalities, and this friendliness rubs off on the students in a good way. Furthermore, the teaching staff is always alert and ready to help any student in need, whether it be a simple math question or deep college consulting assistance. Overall, with the combination of great intellect, resources, and comfort, Seed is the place to be.

We had high hopes for Prodigy Academie. Our infant and toddler both loved their core teachers, who…read morewere warm, consistent, and truly cared about the children. Unfortunately, our experience with management and some aspects of the overall culture left us deeply disappointed. On a Friday afternoon, we picked up our two-year-old and saw she was visibly upset, which was very out of character. She had been with a new teacher we had never seen before. When we asked what had happened, the initial response was vague. We followed up with management, who told us she had been "gently redirected" after spitting. The explanation felt scripted and evasive, and our questions were met with repeated, circular responses. Our gut instinct told us that something just felt off. Eventually, we were invited to view video footage. It had already been queued to the moment our daughter was crying, but we asked to rewind. That's when we saw what really happened: the teacher aggressively pulled her by the arm, and then left her standing there crying by herself. It was painful to watch. Not only was the physical interaction too rough, but the complete lack of empathy or attempt to comfort her was deeply upsetting. The teacher was let go on the spot, which validated our concern, but we only got the truth because we pushed for it. The claim that she had been spitting was not reflected in the video either; she and her peers were making silly sounds, which was totally age-appropriate behavior. What made this harder to accept was the school's constant emphasis on "transparency." We had been told, both during our tour and in written communication, that parents are always notified about staff changes and that the director is consistently on-site. Neither was true in our experience. The director opened a second location and was rarely present, without formally introducing or announcing the person she had placed in charge. When parents, ourselves included, asked for clarity, the response was defensive rather than collaborative. It also felt like a revolving door of new teachers. The lead teachers in each classroom were consistent and wonderful, but there was frequent turnover among support staff, and we were rarely, if ever, introduced to the new faces working with our children. This raised questions about why so many people were coming and going, especially in a setting that promotes stability and trust for young children. As someone who works in early childhood myself, I came in with a trained lens and tried to give the benefit of the doubt. But even before the arm-pulling incident, there were things that gave me pause, particularly the way certain staff members interacted with children. While many teachers were warm and developmentally appropriate, we also witnessed harsh tone, punitive responses, and outdated disciplinary tactics that didn't reflect best practices. After the incident, we asked if they would consider a small tuition credit as a gesture of goodwill. Instead of a thoughtful conversation, we received an email accusing us of "extortion" and were told to direct any future communication through a lawyer. It was a jarring and frankly alarming response, especially coming from a program that emphasizes partnership and trust with families. Our children were happy with some of the teachers and we're grateful for that. But ultimately, we could no longer trust the leadership team or the culture they fostered. If you're considering this program, know that while it may appear polished from the outside, our experience suggests there are serious cracks beneath the surface.

We were part of this daycare for three years, and while the early experience was positive, the…read morefinal year--after it transitioned to Prodigy--was disappointing and led us to leave. In our experience, the school had a low tolerance for typical childhood behavior, especially in boys. Expectations felt unusually high for the age group, and the environment was more focused on compliance than on developmental growth. Staff were often reactive in handling behavior, which escalated situations instead of helping, and communication around concerns was vague and unhelpful. At times, conversations with staff even felt inappropriate, which made it hard to feel supported. Since moving to a new school, we've seen a huge improvement. The environment is more enriching, communication is clear, and the teachers truly care about helping our child succeed as he continues through the program.

My son's story starts with him being diagnosed on the autism spectrum when he was four,and with all the dedicated services we received from New York State which was impactful for his upbringing and improving his reading and comprehension in the past. Margaret has been crucial in these last few years with my son. My son was removed off the spectrum but you can still see hints of how it's still a lingering issue. I am proud to say that Margaret has been so patient, consistent and loving in her work with my son that she has been a cornerstone of my son's improvement. My son is now on the honor roll, and there's no way I can say that margarets' work with EYE LEVEL has not been a crucial resource in my son's improvement and improved efficiency. If you have a child that needs that additional assistance, Margaret who is a part of the EYE LEVEL family will be instrumental to their improvement. WE ARE BLESSED TO HAVE MARGARET ON OUR SIDE!
