We withdrew our 3-month-old son after his very first day. He was at the daycare from 8:00 a.m. to…read more3:45 p.m. and only had one documented diaper change. When we picked him up, his diaper was extremely heavy and heavily soiled, which was extremely concerning. He also came home with an unexplained bruise on his arm. On top of that, while reviewing the camera feed, there were extended periods where he was completely out of view, making it impossible for us to know where he was or what care he was receiving. As parents of a 3-month-old, we expect attentive care, regular diaper checks, and transparency. Unfortunately, our experience did not give us the confidence to continue entrusting our son to this daycare.

Also involved with Generation United, we spent time with underprivileged children during the free arts day at the museum. There were three highly organized activities with the groups split up into about 8-10 kids. The activities were kids yoga, and two where the children created their own art. The organizers did a great job explaining what the volunteer's boundaries should be and how we could maximize our time with the children. My group were 4-year olds and we were each assigned one child. Being that I have an almost 4 year old, it felt natural to play with my buddy but it was so difficult when we had to say good bye. These kids need so much and you just want to do more. Luckily, they have organizations like Free Arts to bring some fun and creativity into their lives.

My almost 4 year old son has been going to Primrose School for a little over a year now and we've…read morehad nothing but great experiences. He loves going to school and is learning so much! My 5 month old daughter also just started here and we love her teachers and trust them to take care of her the way I would if she were home. The facility is so clean! My son went to one other facility before Primrose and he was sick practically the entire time (sinus/ear infections, stomach bugs, hand, foot, and mouth, and other illnesses) and he's had one or two minor sicknesses that didn't even slow him down since going here. You can tell how clean it is because when you walk in the doors it doesn't smell like your typically daycare center, it smells good! We've had a few minor issues but they have all been handled very professionally and promptly. I know that if I have a concern, not matter how minor, that I can bring it to the attention of leadership and it will be taken care of! I also know that they will be honest with me at all times, which I really appreciate.

I'm sharing this because I believe other parents should be aware of my experience when deciding…read morewhere to place their child. I initially raised a concern about a teacher's interaction with another child and specifically requested that my feedback remain confidential. Unfortunately, confidentiality was not maintained, and it became apparent to the teacher and others that the concern had come from me. Afterward, I noticed a significant change in how that teacher interacted with both my daughter and me. The director at the time ultimately established an arrangement that my daughter would stay in another classroom each morning until her regular teacher arrived. I agreed to that solution and trusted it was being followed. On July 7, management called to tell me that my daughter had been placed back with the teacher I had concerns about because of staffing ratios. I said I understood the one-time situation but specifically asked to be notified anytime it happened again. I was never notified again. Approximately six weeks later, after my daughter began mentioning this teacher at home and I started asking questions, I learned that she had continued being placed in that classroom in the mornings without my knowledge. During that period, her Procare account also contained no morning updates reflecting her time in that classroom; her regular updates began once her usual teacher arrived. I cannot speak to why those updates were absent, but combined with the fact that I had specifically asked to be notified and was not, it left me deeply concerned about the transparency and communication surrounding my daughter's care. What ultimately caused me to withdraw my daughter immediately was not one teacher or one incident--it was the loss of trust in management. A director-established arrangement regarding my child was not followed, I was not informed, and for weeks I was dropping her off believing something different was happening than what was actually occurring. Primrose is premium childcare, and our tuition was approximately $1,600 per month. At that price point--and frankly, at any childcare center--I expect parents to be able to trust that concerns will be handled professionally, that agreements regarding their children will be honored, and that they will be told when those agreements cannot be accommodated. There were teachers during my daughter's time here whom we genuinely cared about, which makes the way our experience ended especially disappointing. I hope the center takes this situation seriously and makes changes so another parent does not experience the same loss of trust.

After paying for Quarter 3, I was informed by an outside ABA agency that my son's teacher was found sleeping while feeding 12 children with special needs. A student was choking and she had to wake up the teacher. To top it all off I was shown a post of a mother who said her non verbal came home with bruises and marks. When she called the cops they couldn't do nothing because the child was non verbal! Beyond this life-threatening safety issue, the school doesn't follow IEPs which makes them a daycare. They lack basic facilities like a playground. They stopped allowing parents to go to field trips because they lie and tell parents their child did great when they didn't. Despite withdrawing my son immediately due to these hazardous conditions, the owner has refused to issue a refund. This facility prioritizes profit over the safety and developmental needs of children. I would not recommend this school to anyone. If you are looking for a real school that actually supports our children, I highly recommend reaching out to ACCEL (https://www.accel.org/contact-us/). Michelle there is amazing; she discovered that my son's previous IEP didn't even correctly say his autistic!!! After years of being misled, I finally have the support of a behavioral coach and case manager from La Frontera to help me at my next IEP meeting. Our children deserve a safe environment and a great education.
