This just happened: I was coming to look at the apartments for rent behind this childcare facility…read morewhen I heard a child crying. Fifteen minutes later, I still heard them crying and went to look for the child to see if anyone was helping them. I saw one toddler left outside in the cold, crying by where the door to this facility was. I ran around to the front and knocked on the door and a male came out and saw the child. He quickly ran inside to let her in through the door she was standing near. He claimed that the other children were playing on the other side of the building, which was a blatant lie because I had already run around the entire building to get to the front door, and this two year old was very obviously left unattended and very upset. No adult or other child was anywhere outside. This was obviously a situation where she was either forgotten or purposefully left outside. I called SAPD to document this, and they were sending an officer to check on the child. I'll post this review on every forum I can to warn parents about this. Imagine if someone with bad intentions had discovered her first, instead of a mother.

To a point, Playhouse is a good daycare compared to some of the local ones. But, Mr. Lopez the…read moreowner is not professional. He will be nice to you when you are first enrolling your child because he wants the business. After that....forget it!! When there are things they need none of the staff knows how to talk. You feel more like a reprimanded child instead of the parent. I feel talked down to often. Each day when I walk in to drop off my child, I walk in anxious to deal with these people. I really feel like looking into a new day care. I have one of my in-laws who takes their child there too. Playhouse did not know that we know eachother. On more than one occasion, I heard them badmouthing the parent and the child. Horrible! This place makes me a bit uneasy. I would not recommend this place for anyone with kids under 5. At least after age 5... that way they can talk and let you know what really goes on there. I encourage other parents or anyone who knows about this place to post a review. Parents should be informed. Mr. Lopez is off, no compassion, very rude. Aida is the only decent employee there.

I absolutely LOVE trinity preschool. My baby has been going there for a little over a year now and…read morethey have done such a wonderful job. They make you feel right at home from the second you walk through the door. Their communication with parents is superb. They'll call me to let me know of incidents that may happen and what they've done to take care of your child. Every day we go home with a report card that has your child's behavior, eating habits, how long they slept during nap, etc. Throughout the summer they have splash day every Wednesday where the children play outside in the water. Every week they have a different theme they focus on and fun activities to celebrate. During the holidays they put on a fantastic Christmas program that every classroom participates in. We absolutely love Trinity!!!

We started our child here at the end of last year, 2024. Our class had no steady teachers, lack of…read morecommunication, no consistency in routine or curriculum. Multiple parents and myself witnessed teachers being aggressive with the smaller children and we did bring up concerns to "leadership". They are focused on opening up a charter elementary school more than correcting the issues in the daycare/preschool. We offered a lot of grace to this school as we wanted it to work out and liked the idea of Christian foundation for our child. They also do not have cameras in the classrooms to validate/review any issues- so you really need to trust your gut and advocate for your child. The only light of hope at this school is Ms. Sharon; she is wonderful and is the main reason we did not speak up sooner.

We enrolled our 2 and 4 yr olds at pinnacle and we are so blessed for the changes that have…read moretranspired since they started in June! They had a change of a director recently who let me just say is an absolute gem of a human being. She genuinely loves the children and the well-being of the children in school. My older daughter's teacher was fantastic from the get-go and within a few weeks , my speech delayed and extremely shy daughter started talking and thriving! She now won't be quite whereas for the first several weeks, she would not utter a single word. My younger daughter was in the pre primary class and it was an incredible blessing to have a change of staff. The old staff would leave my baby girl at the front door to cry for hours on end and right when I wanted to pull her out, I was informed that her after care teacher would be taking over. Let me just say, that this was the best thing that happened to us. My baby girl who absolutely despised going to school, suddenly began asking me to take her to school so she can see her "teacher". Ms. Vanessa genuinely bonded with their kids and created an experience of true joy for the kids and I am forever grateful for this transformation my daughter underwent! The after care staff has also been amazing as well! Ms. Grace, Ms. Alexis are champs for being so patient with the kiddos and engaging in creative activities. My kids are thriving and it's all because of the environment the new director, Ms. Erika created. Her number one concern is the well being of the kiddos and she is incredibly hands on! She has an incredible relationship with them and is actually one of the people my kids can't stop talking about! As long as she and her staff stay on board, I highly recommend this particular location!

I will say, I have had to bring certain things to admin's attention like needing more frequent diaper changes to prevent diaper rash and although I wasn't pleased I had to say this I was extremely happy to see that my complaint and solutions were accepted with smiles and the situation was resolved quickly and I haven't had issues since. I can say Admin and teachers truly want your baby to be happy here and are willing to not only listen to your concerns and feedback but take action to correct things on their end. And yes, I'm a helicopter mom and it's very obvious and they don't judge (at least not to my face lol)

I wanted to take a moment to share an updated perspective on Great Hearts Live Oak. Over time, I've…read morecome to appreciate just how dedicated the staff is. They continue to be supportive, professional, and always willing to communicate with parents. Whether it's through phone calls, emails, or text messages, they make an effort to keep families informed, which is something I really value. The curriculum remains challenging and encourages students to think critically. While there are still some concerns about the lack of specific cultural observances, I do see that the school focuses on deeper discussions about historical events rather than just surface-level recognition. I can respect that approach, even if it's different from what some might expect. One issue that still comes up a lot is the car line. The construction in the area has settled down a bit, but now there's a new challenge--sharing the road with other businesses. It definitely adds another layer of congestion, but I think it's important to acknowledge that a lot of the frustration comes from how we, as parents, handle the process. There are still too many instances of people not paying attention, blocking driveways, or leaving huge gaps in the line, which just makes things worse. If everyone followed the guidelines, it would probably run a lot smoother. The school is still a charter, which means funding is always a challenge. It runs largely on donations and tuition, but not every family contributes equally, which puts extra strain on resources. At the same time, the staff is stretched thin, and I know that makes classroom management tough. It's understandable that some behavior issues might be handled more strictly just because teachers have so much on their plates. One thing I've been thinking about lately is how easy it is for us as parents to rate and critique a school, but I wonder how the school would rate us. A child's education isn't a one-way street where only the school has to be accountable--parents play just as big of a role in making sure their child succeeds. Whether it's supporting teachers, reinforcing expectations at home, or just being mindful of how we contribute to the school community, it's something to consider. Overall, my experience with Great Hearts Live Oak has been positive, even with the challenges. No school is perfect, but I do see the effort they put in, and that matters. I just hope that as a community, we can all recognize that education is a shared responsibility, not just something for the school to carry on its own.

Why do parents think they can use the parking lots of nearby businesses to park and wait for their…read morechild? It's the second day of school and already I've been screamed at and flipped off trying to leave work to go home.
