During a tour, I thought it would be a safe and nurturing learning environment for my son. I explained to ALMA LUYANDA, the director, that my son has speech delays, is very energetic, and doesn't listen well. She assured me that it was just two-year-olds and that they could handle him without any problems. Despite the high price of $366 a week, I decided to move forward with this place. However, shortly after she started getting my money, on the fourth day (less than a week later), she called me into her office to discuss concerns about my son opening doors and not napping. At the end of the conversation, she asked me to "talk" to my two-year-old about the rules. This was strange to me, but I tried. I developed this outrageous anxiety daily, trying to watch my son on their cameras to see if he was truly doing anything wrong. Over the next three weeks, I received three incident reports and was instructed to pick him up twice. All these incidents were completely within the scope of what a two-and-a-half-year-old would do. Instead of making efforts to create a safer environment for impulsive toddlers, they chose to blame the child and their ability to self-regulate. The second time they called me to pick up my child for opening doors, I asked, "Are you asking me to leave my job because my son is doing something a two-year-old is supposed to do? I pay you almost $400 a week for you to keep him safe?" Alma lost her patience and kept telling me he wasn't being safe. I explained that's why I pay you to do the job of keeping him safe because I can't do my job and keep him safe. I asked if I would get any kind of compensation or discount going forward. Alma explained that I wasn't because the rate is the same. Then she said she was short-staffed (I did know one of his teachers was out for her birthday, and I love her, but that's not her fault), so they couldn't watch him that closely because it's a big group. That simply doesn't matter to me because the price was the same, and you, as a manager, have to figure that out. I shouldn't be inconvenienced because you're short-staffed. She then explained that I would have to find a new daycare, but I had already paid for the upcoming week. My son's father went to get my son, and I asked him if I was getting a refund or if they planned on keeping my son. Alma also lost her patience with him and called the police, lying and saying he was threatening her! Which never happened. She banned him from the property and filed a police report! It feels like it's race-driven and not a conducive environment for toddlers. In reality, my child is just larger than most and has access to things that many of his age wouldn't have, but he has the same maturity and physical development as any other child his age. I am extremely disappointed by the sheer disrespect and lack of customer service I received. My son is a happy, friendly, and curious kid. He shouldn't be penalized for that.. All in all, I would recommend no one bring their children to this daycare unless they are robots that listen to everything they are told regardless of age. I am very disappointed!

Why has it taken me so long to find this magical spot of quiltiness? I've discovered many new…read morefabric stores in my recent time here in RVA, but no store really checked all the boxes before I walked into Quilter's Corner. Located in Midlothian, it is definitely worth the drive from wherever you are. Upon entering, you are drawn into the shop like a kid in a Hogsmeade candy store. Everywhere you look there are amazing examples of potential projects, and a wide variety of fabrics to choose from. The shop is so well organized that it makes exploration easy, if not a little expensive (Yes, before you ask, I needed that fabric - For what, you ask? Not sure yet, but I needed it!!). The staff here is amazing. Open and friendly, I never got the feeling that I was being a bother, or that I needed to rush to get all of my questions answered. Long arm quilting services, a large variety of classes, and a well-lit classroom are some of the many services offered. The folks who work here seem to love quilting just as much as they love sharing that knowledge of making quilts with those that visit. I'm excited to sign up for a class... I'll let ya know how it goes!

Why I had not heard of this place before now, I will never know. i have searched in the past for a…read morereally good sewing alternative to JoAnn Fabric (sorry JoAnn, I like you but at times I want a real quilting place!). I have a Brother sewing machine and asked if they could repair it...little did I know it was operator error (d'oh!) but they still did find some odd things that were not performing at 100%. Good price on repair and tune up! And...my goodness the gorgeous bolts of fabric!!! A wonderful array of very good quality quilting fabric that you could also use for sewing other things besides quilting, but also a really good assortment of notions/items to help with your quilting, quilting magazines, etc. It turns out they specialize in Brother sewing machines so I will always come here now. The staff are also so very nice! And I could bring my Chihuahua inside with me it looks like!! If I could teach her how to sew now that would be really good...anyway, I really recommend this place. So many good things here for those who sew!! Oh and the parking is really good...it's a private lot shared between small businesses! #shoplocal !!

The curriculum is excellent and very age appropriate. My son loves to go to school every morning, we cannot get there fast enough. I can see it on the other children's faces as well. I've never seen a child not want to go into school and I think that speaks volumes. He has learned so much and made wonderful friends. Our second child will be attending next year. We just adore Mt. Pisgah Preschool and highly recommend it!

With every encounter, we have been beyond impressed with the work they all do. Sarah, the director, is involved with each and every student that walks through the door. She helps and cares about each family that attends their school. The teachers are exceptional. Specifically, Miss Terry and Miss Michele take the time to get to know each student as an individual. They take the time to acknowledge strengths and strengthen opportunities. Our daughter knows all the teachers in the building because they all care about all of the students. It is more than a student/teacher relationship... it is a family. We could not have asked for a better school to introduce our little ones to education. Thank you Mt. Pisgah for all you have done and continue to do.
