We had a great experience with Ebony and Children at Play Event Childcare. We were in Detroit for…read morea wedding and needed child care for six rambunctious kids ranging from 1 1/2 to 4 1/2 years old. We were able to book CAPEC months in advance, which gave us the peace of mind to book the trip knowing that we had reliable child care in place for the night of the wedding. The reservation process was smooth and easy. I spoke to Ebony by phone and she explained her services and confirmed that she could accommodate the size of our group. Once we decided to book CAPEC, we received a link to fill out all the necessary information online (i.e. allergy information and emergency contacts for each child). We then received a written agreement laying out all the terms and information we needed to plan ahead. Given that we had a large group of six kids, Ebony brought a second staff member, Yolaunda. The two of them came very well prepared with plenty of toys and activities for the kids to play with. As soon as they arrived at the hotel they had the kids engaged with bubbles, balloons, and musical instruments. They also did a great job of comforting/distracting the kids so that the parents could slip out without causing a meltdown. Throughout the evening Ebony texted us updates and pictures of the kids playing and enjoying themselves, which was very reassuring and put our minds at ease so we could enjoy the wedding festivities. When we got back to the hotel at midnight all of the kids were fast asleep. The next morning the kids told us how much fun they had with Ebony and Yolaunda, which is really the best feedback you can get. Thank you Ebony, Yolaunda and Children At Play Event Childcare! We can't thank you enough.

Our daughter attended DCA for 2 years, Pre-k and K. The teachers were incredible. Miss Loretta is…read moretip top and Miss Richelle, what can I say, besides she had a major impact on our daughter. She is ALWAYS SMILING AND HAPPY. We recently went to our daughter's first Parent Teacher Conference at her new school. She is advanced for her age bracket. Knows more site words, can read at a higher level than average, numbers, spanish, etc... I know we have Discovery Corner to thank for all of this! 15 students in the kindergarten class was the perfect number. I would have sent her there for elementary if it was an option. The drop off and pick up times are flexible for working parents. I cannot say enough wonderful things about this school and all the teachers that work there. If I could give this school a billion stars, I WOULD!

I feel so lucky to have found this hidden gem and have referred many happy families as well. The…read morestaff and director are unmatched - so kind, loving and nurturing. My kids ran into school everyday, looking forward to their day. Its very rare to find an ENTIRE staff that is happy to be there, genuinely loves kids, and isn't a revolving door. Most of the staff has been there for years, and they are consistently there. I can't thank them enough for the positive experience we've had.

I am so sad we need to leave - logistics issue after work transfers :(…read more We moved here after Kindercare closed and another center had major license issues. Jennifer was helpful with everything. I disagree with the other reviewers in the following ways (and I will explain why I LOVE KA at the same time): 1. Every kid is different - my daughter knew all of her letters and numbers way before my son (and she is younger). You can't rely on them growing at the same speed. 2. The 3 year old room has Miss Joan who has worked for KA for YEARS. She goes through letters and numbers in the mornings. My son came to KA at 4 knowing nothing and she whipped him into shape in a few months. She can be a tough cookie, but if you need parenting advice and can't find Jennifer (the director)...Joan is your girl. 3. Tuition: you have to pay holidays and vacation days regardless of where you go. As long as we have gone to KA, they have not had a snow day. Ever. ALLLLLL the other schools will be closed, but KA is open for business. 4. Homework: feel like you have NO CLUE what your kid is doing all day at preschool? I've been there. KA sends home optional homework packets that my son LOVES doing. It helps me realize what he is learning during the day and he likes to show off (to me and probably also his sister) all of his number knowledge. 5. Turnover: There have been a few people moving around, but nothing like what I have seen at other centers. The center director has been there for over a decade. She knows her stuff, is no-nonsense but kind. She has a love for her job and her students. And she is a fountain of knowledge if you need help with ANYTHING. I don't know anything about the baby/toddler side because my son is older, but overall we are very happy.

Stay away from this place…read more.. reasons why: 1. my 3 year old is not learning any letters or numbers, they are not teaching it. 2. they make you pay tuittion upfront. 3. You have to pay all holidays and if there is a snow day or if they loose power, you have to pay for all those days. 4. you also have to pay 1/2 tuittion for vacation days. 5. last snow day they did not update their voicemail message and I drove 2 kids in a snow storm 15 miles to find a note in the door that center is closed. 6. Overall not happy at all.

My daughter has been coming here since she was 3 months old and I have nothing but good things to…read moresay about the wonderful and loving staff at this facility. It's never easy leaving your child with people while you are at work, but since day one I've felt nothing but positive feelings leaving her in such capable hands. They teach my daughter sign language, how to play well with others, and other essential life skills that I appreciate so much. Every morning at drop-off, I'm greeted with smiles and warm hellos that you can tell are genuine. It's a shame that the only other reviewer has left a negative (and, let's face it, vague and riddled with grammatical errors) review. I very much appreciate these lovely people every day and I wish more people appreciated how hard these folks work at caring for our kids every day.

My husband and I scheduled a tour to get more info on this daycare for our 2 month old. When we…read morearrived, the lady at the front desk was not friendly at all, and did not know we had scheduled a tour. Then, the lady who gave us the "tour" did not introduce herself, and did not give us any information. She showed us the infant room and that was the extent. She asked if we had any questions. Did not tell us any information about the room until we asked, did not give any information about pricing until we asked. Very unprofessional and she acted like she did not need our business. This left a very bad taste in my mouth and I would never leave my child here.

Please do not send your child to this daycare. The center is filthy, it is a zoo. My daughter was…read moreput in a classroom of only boys being hit and pushed all the time. They did not tell me that was not a good distribution of kids by gender in the classroom. I asked for her to change classroom and they said no. I paid the full week and they did not offer a partial refund since I took my daughter out of this center after two days. The director is very unprofessional and very rude.

We would not recommend Child Time to anyone looking for child care for the following reasons…read more On more than one occasion I have smelled marijuana on an employee. I brought this to the attention of the Director and I was told that she would look into the matter. She then proceeded to tell me that they had been having an issue with skunks in the area (this is the honest truth.) I was insulted that she thought this excuse would ease my mind and right then I knew she would not be dealing with this issue. On many occasions we were never refunded for extra classes we paid for. When the instructors did not show up I assumed my account was credited- it was not and I had to ask for a refund. The only time I was refunded was on one occasion. I gave up having to deal with the management at that point. On a weekly basis I noticed not only my child's classroom but other classrooms were out of the teacher/child ratio. Many times I would see one teacher to at least eight children. The parents were asked to fill out a survey and turn it into the management. I mentioned these issues in the survey but yet never heard a word about the results of the survey. I cannot believe Child Time did not hire an outside company to handle this- if in fact they wanted to know the issues going on in the center. Thankfully our child ended up in a classroom with a wonderful teacher Ms. Liz. She was very caring and extremely qualified to handle the children. If our child was not in her classroom we would have left much earlier. During the pickup of our child I had observed some teachers speaking to children in a very uncaring and unprofessional manner. On the positive side of things- they use an App to provide you with real time updates and pictures. The App allows you to communicate directly with the teacher. The food was nutritional. The hours of care were great for us and hard to find at other places.
