I only got information if I asked the question. The space does have a weird layout but classrooms appear to be clean, secure, and structured.

She loved all the teachers, made some great friends, and was always happy to be there. We have had our 2nd child (now nearly 2 years old) there since he was 3 months old and it has been equally great. It is clear the teachers truly care about him and take amazingly good care of him. I also love that we receive updates and pictures throughout the day, which is always nice to see when we're working all day. I would recommend Cradle Club to anyone, they have been simply wonderful.

The hardest task of any parent is deciding who you trust with your children, and you can definitely trust the Cradle Club!

Our family has been at TLC ELC since our son was born 4 years ago and we couldn't be happier. The…read morecenter has a really low staff turnover, so we have known many of the teachers even before joining their classes. The environment is nurturing and creative. They are highly rated - both nationally accredited through NAEYC and in MN through Parent Aware. Our son is happy going to school and that is so key for any working parent who has to send their children to child care every day. We've also been really impressed with their curriculum - we heard from others and have seen ourselves the level that children are at coming from this program is really high. I can't say enough good things about TLC ELC. It's truly such a critical decision in finding child care that you feel good about, and I couldn't imagine going anywhere else.

I know that he loves to go to Casa and I feel relieved he's enjoying his time there. I truly cannot say enough good things about the Centennial Lakes Casa team!

Overall, I haven't really had any complaints with Kiddie Academy. The teachers have always been…read moreextremely wonderful and helpful. They take great care of the kids. But lately, it just seems like management has taken a step back. Whenever you call or email, no one would answer or I'd never get a response. When I finally did get a response to an email it was weeks (sometimes months) after and the response was cold and a little off-putting. As if they were annoyed that a parent would have a question about their child. It doesn't seem like there is clear communication between management and their staff as well as a lack of communication between management and parents. They seem to be short staffed and the current teachers are over worked to where they can't maintain the proper kid to teacher ratio. This ultimately affects the kids and hinders them from being moved up to the proper classrooms; which is very detrimental to their development. Because when a child becomes complacent and isn't being challenged enough, they get bored, act out and can regress.

My family utilized the childcare services for over 2 and a half years until an incident occurred…read morethat was completely inappropriate and involved the physical harm of my child under their care. Obvious poor management by this institution has lead to several citations from the Department of Human Services. You can look these up for yourself online. In my opinion, the leadership in this organization, the School Board, director, and the administrators, are some of the least trustworthy people I have encountered. In attempting to remedy our concerns, we were lied to, gaslit, and eventually ignored. Example: After receiving assurances on record that our tuition would be on hold until an investigation was completed on the safety of the classroom, they then tried to charge us and terminated out good standing so they would no longer have to answer our questions or bring any conclusion to our concerns. We have since learned from other parents that several children were harmed in the same manner. In my experience, this institution is more concerned about their public appearances and generating income for the church rather than providing a safe environment for children. My family plan is to stay as far away from this building and these people as possible.

Skills that we can't get him to try at all, he suddenly comes home willing and proud to show us. The community is warm, and I adore everyone there. It's affordable, small, and very personal.

Staff have been dropping like flies over the past 2 years (since it went from Rainbow childcare to Kindercare). My oldest child has a had time remember the teachers names because they never stay long enough to remember them. Due to staffing issues this location is constantly closing classrooms on short notice which 90% of the time is so short notice it causes me to occur additional marks against me at work (I have to allow at least 2 hours notice of call in). Not only do they constantly close classrooms they charge you for services not received. They refuse to credit accounts even with multiple emails asking for correction. Good luck trying to speak to someone because they never answer their phones at the center.

We love that our kids are learning a second language at such a young age too. It is a little more expensive than some of the other options we considered, but they have a lot of other benefits (like included lunch for the big kid and cloth diapers for the baby). And we feel like it's incredibly valuable to get the benefits of language immersion.
