Fountain Day School is perfection for preschool. The school has the most amazing teachers and…read moreadministrators. It is a family run business in literally every way. Most of the teachers and administration has been with the school for at least 10-20 years, which says a lot. The teachers are incredible, loving, and thoughtful about ensuring the children are reaching age appropriate milestones. Our daughter was thoroughly academically prepared for Kindergarten when she graduated. The school also attracts the most wonderful community of families, and we have made incredible friends. Finally, the school provides the children healthy lunches and year round (included) swim lessons. I don't haven enough positive things to say about it.

Our daughter had been in an amazing daycare/preschool on the Westside, so when we moved to Hancock…read morePark I was extremely nervous about changing schools. From the start, Rebecca (Director) and Kimberly (Assistant Director) were wonderful in helping us through the transition. She began in the Peach classroom, moved to Coral, and will soon be transitioning to Lilac. Every single teacher we've met has been incredible, thoughtful, patient, and caring. I've been so impressed by the curriculum and the creativity behind the daily activities. Our daughter is thriving here. The teachers send us tons of photo updates and log each bathroom break (or diaper change), meal, and snack in real time through an app. They also take the time to chat at drop-off and pick-up about the day's activities, which makes us feel connected and involved even when we're not there. Brella's schedule is based on the hours you use rather than a monthly tuition, but you still get that valuable day-to-day consistency in the classroom. Most of her classmates attend five days a week, and she comes home every day talking excitedly about her friends. They're open almost every day of the year, the care is there when you need it, but it's also great not to have to pay for childcare when we take days off or go on vacation. We feel so lucky to have found Brella near our new home, it has truly exceeded our expectations and highly recommend it.

Our Honest Experience with Brella After 6 Months…read more After six months at Brella, and now that we've found a new daycare, I wanted to share our honest experience. Booking Brella uses an app for monthly childcare bookings, which open on the 20th at 10 a.m. For the past three months, the app has frozen during booking time, leaving my husband and me spending hours trying to secure spots for our son. Honestly, it's easier to get tickets to a Beyoncé or Taylor Swift concert than to book childcare at Brella. Dependability While Brella advertises full-time childcare flexibility, that hasn't been our experience. For the last three months, we've been waitlisted at least two days each week--for example, every Monday and Tuesday in November. After repeatedly asking in October, we were finally taken off the waitlist, but the inconsistency has been stressful. They also offer "early booking," which we requested access to, only to be told we were waitlisted for that as well. For working parents, this level of unpredictability makes Brella an unreliable option. We've had to use PTO or ask our in-laws to drive over two hours just to help cover childcare gaps. Quality and Communication Several of our favorite teachers have been let go, which was disappointing. Brella is also supposed to send daily photos and lesson plans, but there are days we receive no updates--or just a single photo of the back of our son's head. Overall For such a premium-priced childcare option, Brella has significant issues to address--from booking reliability to staffing and communication. While there are aspects we appreciated early on, it ultimately wasn't dependable enough for our family's needs.

I can't express in words just how invaluable Marilee and her team at ECDA have been to me and for…read moreour family. I've had two kids graduate from her toddler program over the last few years and I can't wait to enroll my third child when the time comes. ECDA is a wonderful preschool prep program and support group for parents and care givers alike. While the children learned and played in one room, the parents stayed close by to participate in group discussions each week. It was a great way to check in and have the opportunity to ask questions and talk about what worked and wasn't working for everyone. It really helped me navigate parenthood and all the challenging times that arise during those first few crucial years of parenting and raising children. The class notes that get emailed to everyone ahead of each class have been so fabulous to use as a reference point on numerous occasions. I don't know what I would have done without Marilee and all of her wisdom. My children still talk about her and her classes and especially love to look back at photos and videos of their time spent there. The support, knowledge and friendships formed by attending these classes have been simply priceless!

I started sending my daughter here when she was 15 months old. Twice a week, our nanny would bring…read moreher for two-hour sessions filled with music, story time, crafts, sensory play and imaginative play. But the programming isn't just for the kids. Every week, there's also a new parenting topic that caregivers discuss in a circle as the children do their activities in a different room, supervised by fun and caring teachers. I can honestly say that reading the handouts every week, learning from my nanny about her takeaways, and occasionally dropping in on the classes has made me a better parent this past year. I am more compassionate and empathetic to my child, I have better social and psychological tools to create consistent boundaries, and I know that I have somewhere to turn whenever the latest crazy stage of toddlerhood hits our household (tantrums, potty training, picky eating, poor sleep, aggression). I never felt judged or lectured. I always felt supported and uplifted. And on a personal note, Marilee was able to identify mild sensory issues (sight, touch and hearing) in my toddler. Marilee taught her (and us!) simple coping skills to avoid becoming overwhelmed by her fears and emotions. Without these insights, there's no doubt that I would be treating these sensory issues as "disobedience" and trying to punish her for them, which is frustrating and hurtful for the kid and ultimately counter-productive for the family. I wish every parent had access to a group like ECDA.

Both classes were led by Barbara and Corgi, who were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and relatable. From the moment we walked in, they made everyone feel comfortable and welcome. What I appreciated most was how interactive the classes were. They encouraged lots of questions and really engaged with the group, which made the experience feel personal rather than overwhelming. They struck the perfect balance of being informative while keeping things fun and lighthearted. So much information can be stressful but the way it was presented was easy to digest. I loved doing it with my partner and think it was such a great way to get him more involved in this process that can lean so heavily on the mom. Beyond just the classes, The Pump Station offers so much! Mommy and Me, classes for Grandparents, Car Seat Installation, Stroller consultation. They also have a great gift store and registry program! I will absolutely be signing up for Mommy & Me classes and love supporting a small business who put so much love and care into what they do.

More importantly, their website said the stroller I wanted was in stock and available in 4 hours for pickup, but when I got there it wasn't available for purchase and it had to be ordered. When I brought it up to the cashier, he said it was because they have it in store their inventory but not at the store? Huh?? After doing more digging I saw there was a "Terms and conditions" asterisk in fine print you have to click on to find out this information. All I saw was the green check mark that says "In stock and ready for pick up in 4 hours." Any other place I have ever been to- this would mean it would be in stock at the store. When I brought up, calmly, that this was confusing and they should fix it because I drove two hours to get to the store. The cashier said nothing. Not a "Aw geez, I'm sorry. I can understand your frustration and why that's confusing." I'm a reasonable person. I've worked in customer service all my life. The demeanor of the cashier alone has put me off from ever visiting this store again or recommending it. We went to Uppababy a few blocks down and they were SOOO kind that it completely made my day. All I needed was some kindness. To the owners of the Pump Station- the people using your website are most likely VERY tired moms. I personally am getting 3-4 hours of sleep a day. Tired moms need clear signage if something is in stock or not. Time is precious in this season of life. We also need KINDNESS. My body is broken and recovering from giving birth. I am exhausted! I would expect a place who sells baby items to understand this. Overall, would never recommend this place and will tell everyone I know that it was an awful experience.

Sure, there are books you can read, but who has the time??? I need easy, quick and efficient.

I'm not saying one visit and you're an expert, but each time I meet with Limor, I can see the progress and it is WONDERFUL! By the way, I'm not related, I'm leaving this review because I am passionate about having the best relationships with my kids. If anyone wants to improve their relationship with their kids, I say give it a try and see if she works for you. I believe you'll be at least a little better off than you were before. To anyone reading this, parenting is HARD! But with a better understanding of communication it can be a little easier. I am having more calmer discussions and my daughter is confiding in me. My only regret is.... I wish I would have started sooner. Limor, thank you so much!

After working with her, our son now takes 2 naps during the day and sleeps 12 hours overnight, all independently. The schedule and routines she helped craft for us have given us first time parents a degree of freedom and reliability that we just didn't have before. She's also such a joy to work with - her energy is infectious and her positive affirmations and validations helped give us confidence that we were on the right track. Thank you, Jenni, for teaching us about circadian rhythm science! Bonus: we're getting better quality sleep too!

5 Stars We are so…read moreincredibly grateful that we found Jennijune.com and Jennifer. Before working with her, we were really struggling to get our baby to sleep through the night. It felt exhausting and overwhelming, and to make things harder, my wife was having trouble hearing our baby cry, which added another layer of stress and anxiety to the situation. From the very beginning, Jennifer was calm, kind, and incredibly knowledgeable. She took the time to walk us through the science behind infant sleep -- explaining wake windows, our baby's natural sleep rhythm, and how brain development is directly supported by quality rest. It wasn't just about "getting the baby to sleep"; it was about helping our daughter get the proper rest her growing brain needs to thrive. Jennifer created a comprehensive, customized schedule that we could realistically implement. What we loved most was that her approach worked with our baby's natural rhythm instead of against it. Within a short time, we saw a significant reduction in crying and a huge improvement in overall sleep. The changes felt gentle and intentional, not forced. Beyond her expertise, Jennifer's support was truly exceptional. She was clear but always kind, responsive to questions, and provided amazing follow-up. The constant check-ins made us feel supported every step of the way. She also gave us guidance for upcoming developmental stages so we feel prepared for what's next rather than anxious about it. We're now two weeks in, and everyone in our home is getting -- as Jennifer might say -- "that sweet, delicious sleep." The difference in our baby's mood, our energy levels, and the overall peace in our home has been incredible. We would highly, highly recommend Jennifer to any family struggling with sleep. Working with her has been one of the best decisions we've made for our daughter and for ourselves.

My little one ran over the hills and started to use the equipment. She LOVED it. Since then I have been coming for about 4 months now. What I loved the most aside from their playground of course was that they have an Instagram where I can check out future activities. Such as for Halloween, Summer splash, and much more.
