Little People's Landing in Louisville has been great. Our daughter has been going there for almost…read morea year now. We did a LOT of shopping around (including looking at the Little People's in Westminster) and chose LPL Louisville because they seemed to have the right balance of play and structure, guidance and hands-off, cleanliness, and letting kids be kids. They really focus on the kids and it's obvious that she is loved and really enjoys being there. Lately when we've pulled up I hear an excited "SCHOOL!" from the backseat. One of the biggest draws for us was the director Christine Hawkins. I can't say enough good things about her. She really helped our daughter adjust to daycare (most mornings going from my arms to her arms). When I switched jobs Christine worked with me to make sure the billing was done appropriately. Even recently when my husband had surgery, Chris worked it out so that our daughter could come extra days. Our daughter just moved up to the preschool classroom and is thrilled to be with "the big kids". While at LPL Louisville her vocabulary and language skills have gone off the chart! At her 2 year checkup her pediatrician told us that developmentally she was on par with a 3-4 year old. Clearly Little People's Landing in Louisville is a place where children flourish!

I have had the worst experience as a parent/ teacher with Little People's Landing Louisville! They…read morehave been extremely disrespectful and have went through every hoop they could to try and say we didn't hold up our end of the contract. They quoted me $200 every 2 weeks for our daughters tuition and after a week of me being employed and seeing the invoice it was $199 for just 1 WEEK!!! I told the office about the price difference and all they could do was say sorry. Fast forward 2 weeks later my employment ends and I have already been invoiced for the full week of childcare, they tell me to gather all my daughters things and leave; meaning she isn't allowed to continue her school week. I asked for an adjustment to the invoice to reflect that she didn't attend the rests of the week because the office unenrolled her and it was not our doing to leave. They said no. When I asked for the entire amount to just be removed because they didn't hold up their end of the contract, they finally adjusted the amount but said I'd accrue a late fee daily if I don't pay it. However I had asked for the entire amount to be removed at this point now because they didn't give the 2 week notice that was required in their end of the contract. They tried to email me the contract saying I had to hold up my end of it all while violating it themselves. My daughter had ZERO behavior issues and the director said to me "she's definitely getting used to us and the center." So they can't try to pull the behavior card. They withdrew her upon my job termination. They then tried to tell me I unenrolled her and that it was my doing. I didn't not withdraw her and had I did I would have done it to end the last date of the invoiced week as I would have had to pay anyways. They are being extremely confrontational and don't want to resolve anything. I do not play about my families hard earned money and will not accept an oh well as an answer. I will do everything I can to get this matter resolved and if I have to leave a review on every platform then so be it. Some of y'all may say I'm doing too much and should just drop it but I'm not and it will be escalated however far it needs to because people can't keep getting away with treating others unfairly. (If anyone has some advice on how else we can deal with this, that would be great.)

We've had some bad run ins with previous day cares for our 5 and 3 year old. We were lucky enough…read moreto squeeze in a visit when they had availability to take both our girls. We met with Denise and Amanda and we were so impressed with the facility, we signed our kids up right then and there. We love the variety of their education and how they move from classroom to classroom. We love Make Believe Boulevard (an indoor mini city where the kids can use their imagination to play, complete with a slide and ball pit), that Spanish is taught, they do learning bags on Fridays that the kids share an item of what they learned that week and hands down we both love the interactive LEAP Digital board and corresponding LEAP books. The teachers are amazing, very hands on and compassionate. Jelena and Liz in Toddler 2 class, our 2.5 year old absolutely adores. When we first started, we expressed how we wanted our then 2.5 year old potty trained, and within 1 week after attending there, she was. They were so patient and kind with the potty training our daughter took right to it. Corrie in the Pre-K class is so friendly and patient with the kids. Our 5 year old always came home with new songs or ideas she learned from Ms. Corrie. We were so impressed and just love all the staff there: Denise, Amanda, and Samantha at the front are super friendly and do whatever they can to accommodate your family (our youngest is in speech therapy). There are so many great things about this school and the wonderful teachers I would highly recommend this daycare to anyone looking for quality care for your kids.

Over the years, Goddard and its staff have become part of our extended family. We have been at…read moreGoddard for almost 4 years now. My oldest son will be 4 in August and my youngest just turned 2. Both started in the infant room and progressed through the rooms as they aged up. At this point, there are only two rooms we haven't been in yet (they're the pre-k rooms). We've loved every room and all the teachers we've had and so have our boys. They create a special bond with the teachers in each classroom, yes even the infant room (they still love to stop and say hi to her)! A lot of days, when I pick them up, my oldest will exclaim how much he misses his teacher and can't wait to see him tomorrow. Over the years, the things they've shown us or told us they learned at school amazes us. When my oldest first sang his ABCs it wasn't because of us, but them. What I love the most about the curriculum is HOW they're learning. At a glance, it just looks like innocent play (and let's be real, kids need to just play sometimes and there's plenty of that); but, they're learning so many things while they're playing. The concept of in and out, on and off, opposites, colors, shapes, SIGN LANGUAGE, the outdoors, sports, etc. Really, the list could keep going. The owners and staff are great communicators, diligent and detail-oriented. It's always felt clean, safe and welcoming. It will be a sad day when our kiddos completely age out of Goddard.

They are super communicative via the Bright Day app, email and in person. If I could change a couple things, I wish they were open just 30 minutes longer in the evening. And I would love if they provided meals (no Bright Horizons seem to do this, but other similar care centers do). Will update this post should anything change along the way, as we're just a couple of weeks in.

I had a terrible experience, and was promised a refund by the Director Kathleen Winters after she…read moretold me to find other care. As for specifics, this center is the most disorganized and rude place of business I have ever encountered. I was so excited to have my son start there and tried to be proactive every step of the way. They didn't send me a bill until June 4th to pay, even though I was told that all payments are due on the 1st and he may lose his spot if not paid on time. Despite me stopping by and personally trying to make a payment on the 1st, no one was able to help me and the director did not call me back after I left a message. When I went to drop off my 2 year old son on June 4th for the first time, neither the front desk, nor the teacher in the classroom knew of him nor expected him. The teacher told me to "just leave him", despite not knowing anything about him, his medical history, allergies, or even introducing herself for that matter. I filled out and submitted everything but the shot records/physical (which I had with me at drop off), so how is it possible that the teachers are not even aware of a new child starting? I let the teacher know of my son's reflux issues, including instructions not to provide juice or similar acidic foods, and to please pass the information onto the afternoon teachers. I informed them that I've filled out a list of foods NOT to give him. Later in the afternoon, they fed my son apple sauce, which was specifically on the list that I provided and no one bothered to read. That day they took my son with no shot records, not signed in, and I wasn't even given a code for pick up. I left another message for the director to please call me. As you can guess, I did not receive a call. Instead, I received a message AT WORK, from another parent. The director had given out my personal and employment information for other parents to contact me. Then she emailed me the code for the door without calling to check on my concerns. When I went by to pick up my son in the afternoon, I again asked her if she could spare a minute to talk. She walked past me and said "I don't have time, if you want to talk to me in the afternoon you need to schedule an appointment". The following morning I finally got to talk to the director, who was extremely rude and unsympathetic. Apparently 20 other children started recently, so that's why the teachers had no information on my son. She works 11 hour days, so she's just too busy to address parent's concerns. And after I complained about her giving out my personal and employment information, she simply stood up, told me she's issuing a refund and to find other care. I have found other care, and would be perfectly happy to never deal with Kathleen again. However, the promised refund is nowhere to be found.

I cannot in good faith recommend this school to any child or family. My child went to this school…read morefor about 1.5 years, starting at about 2.5. I have PTSD from the judgement my child received, lack of support, poor communication, and overall unprofessionalism of leadership. The teachers were very kind, but unfortunately, not fully equipped to support a variety of children's needs. My child has thrived since leaving this school and had zero issues with classmates and teachers. I believe if you're child is quite docile and loves to work alone that this could be a fine enough option for you, but if that's not the case, I'd encourage you to look elsewhere. And my best advice is just to talk to a handful of parents at the school. It can seem really nice on the surface, but the best way to know what it's really like is to talk to the community of parents that currently have children enrolled. Many felt the same way, but as you know, it's hard to find good childcare so it was the lesser of the evils for a lot of families. I fully expect the school to try to retaliate this review (as defense was often the communication I was met with for any concerns), but I hope that some of the professionalism has come back to the school and they will just receive the feedback and learn from it.
