SITTER EXPERIENCE PRIOR: Sitter 1: Generally unreliable,…read moresuspected neglect/abuse at one point. Sitter 2: Awesome, but moved away after a few months Sitter 3: Wanted to take my daughter to go pick her sister up from the airport on day one and hang out with her sister. Couldn't understand why we were uncomfortable with that. Sitter 4: NCNS first two days I was done with it. Tired always wondering if we'd have a sitter and what condition my daughter would come back in. Enter Bright Horizons. We had toured the Chandler facility when my daughter was only 4 or so months old. They didn't have openings. I called in after the whole debacle above and they luckily had an opening in the Infant room (daughter 11mo at this point). We immediately enrolled. I knew I liked the place but I didn't know how much. Here are some highlights. * They take pictures throughout the day of your little ones - super nice. * They have a running log of what your little one does all day - down to how much they eat - super nice. * They have a plan for developing your little one such as music days, art days, etc. - super nice. * They help your little one develop in areas they need development. For my daughter she needed help eating more solid foods and they've got her eating more solids than we have ever gotten her to (maybe it is peer pressure of other kids, I dunno) - super nice. * They always seem staffed and share kids that are transitioning from one room to another. * They will abide by your special requests such as dietary. They have a nice selection of foods for the little ones to meet your special requests or their special needs - super nice. In short, I feel very fortunate to have been able to enroll here. And on a side note - God Bless those gals in the Infant room. They take all the crying in stride and still smile.

This school is absolutely phenomenal…read more From the very first day, it has felt like a second home for our child! My five-year-old yells out Spanish songs at bedtime, exclaims "¡Mira esto!" while attempting parkour off the couch, and gives me a side-eye every time I mispronounce "gracias." I'm not sure if I signed him up for preschool or a top-secret Spanish immersion boot camp, but either way, I'm blown away. Director Marcela is a gem--so warm, thoughtful, kind, and clearly leads with heart and purpose. And the teachers? They are saints - crakers-covered, angelic humans. They sing, dance, teach, comfort, and somehow manage chaos with a smile. Their warmth, patience, and dedication to the Spanish immersion experience are incredible. If you're looking for a place where your child will be loved, challenged, celebrated, and will accidentally become more bilingual than you, this is it. Five stars, all the way.

Unfortunately I had to leave because I moved to a different city and the drive was too far. The reason this establishment is so great is because they hold everyone to a higher standard. I worked at other day cares where they hire you and immediately throw you into a classroom by yourself just to have a body in a room. But with Bridges preschool they didn't leave me by myself for at least the first month because it was during my training period. They made sure I had all the qualifications and knew all of the guidelines and rules of the center before being left to my own devices. On top of that all teachers need to be currently enrolled in college or have a degree related to early childhood development which is amazing. Something original about Bridges is that they do not have a typical lunch program. The parents pack their child's lunch everyday and are encouraged to provide healthy choices like fresh fruits and veggies, lean meats and whole grains. The curriculums are well thought out and personally created by the teachers. Phonics, Spanish and sign language are all included. This was by fat my favorite part of my job! Hopefully you give this center a shot, you won't be disappointed!

I would of never left if it wasnt of my son hitting and bitting other kids! they really tried to help us and find a way to redirect my son but at some point other parents were probably very mad at this situation so theybhad to let us go! Otherwise we would still be enrolled there I highly recommend this place and felt so home there i am so sad we wont be able to go anymore! Good luck to you out there I sure know finding a place that feel right isnt easy.

We first heard about The Goddard School from friends who had so many glowing things to say, and we…read morehave found every bit of their praise to be true. We have had such a wonderful experience with Ms. Candice and Ms. Arlyn in the infant room. They create a warm, fun, and loving environment where our son feels completely at home. They keep us laughing with their stories about his day and genuinely delight in each new milestone, which makes us feel like they are celebrating right alongside our family. They have taken the time to truly know him, from his routines and preferences to his personality and all the little things that make him smile. They are nurturing, attentive, patient, and always willing to answer our questions openly and honestly. Their thoughtful communication helps us feel connected to his day and confident that he is receiving individualized care. Most importantly, he is always happy to see them and clearly feels safe, comfortable, and loved. There is no greater reassurance as a parent than knowing your child is spending the day with people who care for him as if he were their own. Ms. Candice and Ms. Arlyn are a huge part of what makes Goddard so special, and we are incredibly grateful for them.

Ms. Candice and Ms. Arlyne have been the most incredible, loving, and nurturing teachers. They are truly special. Putting our son in daycare at just three months old was extremely difficult, however as soon as I met Ms. Candice, I immediately felt at ease and comforted knowing he was going to be in such kind hands. She made the transition easy as I knew he was going to be safe and loved with her. Both Ms. Candice and Ms. Arlyne treat and love each baby as their own, and we feel lucky to have them in our son's life. There are never any tears at drop off as he gets the biggest smile anytime he sees them! They are also very intentional about helping him reach developmental milestones, which is so helpful for us as first time parents. We also are very grateful to Ms. Lorraine, Ms. Abby, and Ms. Avery who also provide such warm and loving care to our son. We are so happy we chose Goddard and wholeheartedly recommend!!

They fed her at 9:20am…read moreand only fed her again after I sent a message asking if they forgot to update the app. I pulled both of my kids out that day and was told by the director, Christi Vega, that I'd get a refund for the rest of the month the following week. I reported them to the state for child neglect and filed a police report with Chandler PD. I have still not received a refund. When we followed up on 4/25, we were told we have to continue to wait for the new franchise owner, Andrew Sheridan, or district leader, Kellie Rexrode, to follow up with us before a refund is issued. They put my infant in danger and are now putting me in a tough financial position. We'd been customers since 2022; I trusted them and am now absolutely heartbroken. I no longer have a choice and have to start going public.

Newvista is a school that you would really like after a switch from public school but as you spend…read moremore time, you will realize a lot of things that need attention. Math and ElA curriculum hasn't changed over decades which they consider a strength ( may be it is in ELA but not in math) but kids excelling in math at nvce struggle anywhere and everywhere.Text books are so old that even school has had time stocking them.One of the reasons curriculum doesn't change is because teachers esp in advanced grades know how to teach that book but not necessarily that topic so they simply stick with those old books for comfort level of teachers. Teacher's qualification is not disclosed on website .Many of them probably don't hold any degree in what they are reaching.Bejng a private school, teachers don't have to comply with ongoing education/training .School doesn't participate in AZ standardized tests Infact has its own metrics/standardized tests so you are unable to really see where it stands compared to rest of the school. School really focuses on grouping based on kids levels which creates an unhealthy competition among class and parents.A lot of teacher tutor right after school dismisses and students taught by the teachers during those sessions, are then able to advance into higher groups so basically you spend more money after paying the monthly tuition.This is a very very common trend. School participates in national history day which is good but problem is the teacher who runs that is very biased.Years ago when her own child was participated in these competitions ( from middle school to high school), he would win awards in almost all categories.People felt nepotism at its very best. You pay for almost all the clubs and extracurriculars.Schools playground is too small.My child dreaded music and foreign language.Kids only do singing on music and no instruments at taught all.kids only learn numbers in Spanish pretty much the entire time.

The new owner never properly introduced themselves to the parents or explained what we could expect under the new management. They raised the weekly price by $60 with no explanation on why the price was required (and that price did not include any meals). My son started coming home with horrific diaper rash. According to the child care app, his diaper wasn't getting changed until 1030-11am despite being dropped off at 7am. He would scream and cry every time we tried to change his diaper and would also cry "it hurts!" We started dropping off a water each day because we didn't know whether he was getting fresh clean water every day. When we would pick up his water bottles, they would smell funky like they hadn't been cleaned in weeks. My son developed a fear of wearing sweatshirts and jackets because no one was taking his sweatshirt off and he would overheat. After a few months we removed our toddler and it was the best decision ever.
