I'm more frustrated with the schools policy on cancelations more then anything else. The school…read morefollows Appos cancelation policy regardless if it makes sense. Do you have a morning preschool class, but Appo closes because of potential snow in the afternoon, your class will be closed too. It's not fair to the parents or the kids. They are only there for a few days a week and to cancel there class and to "take" the parents money is not right.

This review is in reference only to the Townsend Location as I have no experience with the other…read morelocations. This place should be shut down. They are only interested in profits. The children do not get personalized care and are herded around like cattle. My 4 year old has been there for a year and had 4 different head teachers. She is currently (and has been for the past month) without a head teacher at all. She is plunked into another classroom where she does not even have a cubby. She has different teachers every day and different teachers throughout the day. Her cubby is falling apart and the office told me there was nothing they could do about it even though it could injure her (I was told that all the cubbies are that way). Communication is terrible. If she does get a daily sheet, it rarely gives any personal information and usually does not even include whether or not she napped. I mistakenly enrolled my other child in their Junior summer camp and she is getting the same kind of treatment as they routinely cancel the field trips that were on the calendar for the summer. Teachers - The teachers I have experienced in this facility are caring and loving people. The problem is that they have no control over their day with the children and are shuffled around at the discretion of the main office. They are not given information from the office and therefore can not offer any information or communication to the parents. Most of the good teachers leave for this reason which causes a VERY HIGH turnover on teachers. CHILDREN NEED CONSISTENCY! I do not have terribly high expectations of a daycare / early learning center, but I do expect that my child receives at least some personalized care, respect and education. I have seen very little, if any, of that at Beach Babies, Townsend, DE. I beg of you, as a fellow parent, please do not enroll your children in this facility. They deserve better and there are many better centers in the area.

The last review was written a long time ago. Beach Babies now is a great place. They really care…read moreabout the children and do a wonderful job educating them. My three year old knows more letters than many of the kindergarteners I know. The only bad thing I could say about the place is that it is getting quite crowded, but I guess that could be looked at as a good thing since so many people want to get in. They are reasonably priced and it s a very friendly environment. I love each and every person in this facility. I am a teacher and I can say that they are really doing their best to educate our children before they get into kindergarten.

My child has attended this school since he was 18 months old, and the cost has been less than what…read moreI would have paid at a daycare where the focus is simply babysitting. By the time he was two years old, he already knew all of his letters and their sounds, the seven continents, and the major bodies of water. Now at six years old, he is socially confident, speaks exceptionally well, and can do addition, subtraction, multiplication, and even long division. He can also write full paragraphs and identify parts of speech such as nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. Like any school, there are always challenges, but I have chosen to keep my son here because I truly see the value it has added to his development and education. The class sizes are small, around 18 students, and the focus is on mastery, not memorization. Communication between the teachers and parents has always been excellent. Most importantly, this school supports and reinforces the faith-based principles and values that are important to our family.
