One day, my daughter wanted starburst for breakfast. I said I wouldn't sign her healthy eating chart and she wouldn't get a stripe from her coaches. She decided she wanted eggs instead . Coaches will reinforce positive habits and are always willing to talk to the kids about right and wrong. Occasionally, they offer a free women's self defense course on Saturday. I participated and it was amazing! Learned several good strategies that I never would have thought to do. Hope they keep doing it! They have a variety of classes for everyone throughout the day. Also, they have a free 30 day trial so there's nothing to loose Highly recommend team nog!

Today was our first day of surf camp. I'm just going to be very frank. This business has some…read morestrong points but also some serious problems and I hope they're soon addressed. Pros: ~ the instructors show a clear passion for surfing and it's contagious ~ the staff quite obviously loves being around children ~ my daughter learned a lot today; more than I expected Cons: ~ no sense of (or system in place for detecting) dangerous weather conditions. While my phone was alerting me of multiple lightning strikes within a 5 mile radius, these guys had no clue! I'm ok with them just being watchful for lightning beyond 10 miles. But 4.1 miles - come on Aloha. Nature doesn't work for you. ~ seriously unprofessional attire. Seriously, do a bunch of young children need to see your bare jiggly asses? One staff member was wearing a distasteful thong on the beach. Use some basic common sense and show a morsel or respect in a children's camp setting. Can't believe i even have to say this. ~ inconsistent supervision. One child floated way out on a board before he was noticed, some kids were burying an instructor, some were wandering around, some were playing in the water, and others were on boards. There was no real system for knowing who's where/with whom and if a child walked away or were taken, I suspect a long time would pass before it would be noticed. No wrist bands, no head counts, no accountability. This is a low-security camp. Not sure it's a good idea in 2019. ~ low instructor to camper ration = bullies can run rampant. There's always that one kid. And he's there now. Much bigger than the rest, singing inappropriate songs, dumping sand on kids' heads, dragging kids into the water that clearly don't want to be dragged, saying vile things. But he's mostly ignored and he just does whatever TF he wants. Maybe if you had more instructors for such large groups, you'd have a better handle on them. If these issues are addressed, i will be delighted to change my review. For now, it stands unfiltered.

Here's my short (and long) of my recent experience with Finatix Scuba Diving and Tammy Goodbar…read more The short version; Tammy and Finatix are my "go-to" for dive instructions and dive guides in the West Palm Beach area. Professional, accommodating, attentive and very, very safe. She just did a refresher for me after 4 years without diving. She was gentle but firm in confirming my skills in gear prep, dive planning, buddy procedures, hand signals and both beach and boat procedures. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for scuba dive training or dive guides. The Long Version; I first met Tammy when I was doing a underwater macro photography workshop at the Blue Heron bridge in Riviera Beach, Florida back in August 2016. At the time I had been a certified diver for almost 30 years. Tammy was one of the guides and I was lucky enough to be in her group. I was impressed with her professionalism and her eye I spotting the little critters we were there to photograph. Over the three days of the workshop I got to see that my first impression was not a fluke. Day after day Tammy was a pro wrangling the photographers and uncanny in spotting subject for us to shoot. I left that workshop impressed and with her number. By the time the Covid 19 pandemic hit I had some non-Covid medical challenges that required a couple major surgeries. The results of which made my ability to continue scuba diving a question. I live in California and although we have some great diving the water temperature is never really warm. When considering how best to determine my ability to dive I remembered diving with Tammy in the (nice warm) waters of Florida. At the beginning of 2023 I called her to see if I might retain her to review my abilities and skills one-on-one. She was immediately on board and we determined that June would be a good month for both of us and the waters would be warm. I booked her on the spot. I got down to West Palm Beach this last Saturday (6/17/2023) and came by Finatix to select rental equipment, sign the ever present paperwork and review our plan for the next couple days. We set a time to meet for the beach dive at Blue Heron bridge the next day. We met there and went through setting up the gear. As balance issues are one of my residual challenges Tammy insisted on carrying my gear to the beach. We reviewed our dive plan and got in the water. On descending we reviewed some skills and started the dive. Tammy led and kept an eye on my checking that I was "OK" regularly. Inn our 50-minute dive we managed to spot; Southern Ray, Eagle Ray, Yellow Ray, lobster, crabs mating, A Sharp-Tailed Ray feeding and a playful Octopus. We ended the day with an agreed time to meet for a 2-tank boat dive the next day. Tammy took the gear and brought it to the boat dock as well as getting it on-board. Before we boarded we reviewed boat procedures again. We went out for our first dive and she was careful to make sure that I could safely manage the difficult task of getting into the water off a rolling boat with heavy dive gear on my back. We continued practicing dive skills and cruised the reef seeing more great stuff including several sea turtles and eels. As this was drift style diving, we came up after doing the required 15' safety stop for 3 minutes in mid-water. A good test of buoyancy control. The boat picked us up and she monitored my ability to remove my fins, hand them up and climb the later with my gear on. After a surface interval we did a second dive then headed in. Tammy took care of the gear, signed my logbook and insisted that I had accomplished all the skills review that would confirm that I could still dive. I know the next time I'm down in the West Palm / Riviera Beach area Tammy and Finatix are going to be my first call.

I planned my day around this excursion and made it a pool day at my hotel. I left my hotel at 1 pm, got there in about 15 minutes and then drove an hour looking for parking. The sheriff blocked off the parking lot because it was full. Side roads were full. At this point even if I found parking I'm walking over the lagoon bridge. I called the company and Stevie said other guests and the tour guide, Parker, were also experiencing the same issue. Stevie tried her best to help by suggesting someone picking up etc. Still no time because of he excursion was starting in 15 minutes. I requested a refund because I was done at this point. Owner called me back and assured me that I would get a refund. So unless you plan on getting there in the morning to get parking, move on from any excursions at 900 Heron. This review was fair and honest, not slamming the company. However Kaleigh thought it would be cute to email me a nasty email this morning accusing me of being a bully. Photos of the conversations attached. At this point the unprofessional-ism of this company should be considered. Kaleigh, if you were only this respectful and professional as the face you are trying to show publicly privately. You can put whatever spin on this you want, you are the real bully and you can try to make yourself look good and make me look bad. You made this to be what it didn't have to be. As I have said, I am done with you, your poor attempts at damage control, and your company.

Review for Miss Luz - Growing Minds Academy, Jupiter…read more Miss Luz has been an absolute blessing in our lives. She cares for our 1- and 3-year-old with such tenderness, patience, and genuine love. You can feel that she's doing what she was truly called to do -- she doesn't just watch children, she nurtures them, teaches them, and pours so much heart into everything she does. She's one of the sweetest, most dedicated people we've ever met, and it shows in the way our children light up when they see her. It brings us such peace as parents to know they're in the hands of someone who loves what she does and deeply cares for the families she serves. We love Miss Luz and are so grateful for her presence in our children's early years.

My daughter was with this school for a little over a year. While it wasn't our first choice, it was…read moreone of the only schools that didn't have a long waitlist.She started in Miss Christine's class which we loved. She loved her teachers and her classmates. We always got photos and updates at the end of the day, and were very happy with how things were going. When she transitioned to the next class, things went downhill. Off the bat we didn't have the same good feeling about the teachers compared to her last class. It was an overall colder vibe, not as caring. My daughter has ALOT of emotions (terrible two era) so I understand this can take a toll on the teachers. But I didn't appreciate how every day when I picked my daughter up, she seemed like she had been crying for long durations. One day, she came home with marks on her hand. I know one of the teachers has long nails but didn't say anything because it could have come from a child. However, none of the teachers commented on the marks which to me was a red flag (usually we would get an incident report or at least the teacher would tell us what happened). Another time, after picking my daughter up, she kept repeating in the car "stop crying, stop crying." When I asked her who said that, she said teacher. I showed her photos of her teachers and there was clearly one aid who she seemed scared of. After this, I immediately pulled her out (also after seeing a similar review from a student in the same class). When the head of the school met with me after I pulled my daughter, she seemed very protective of her staff and I almost felt like she was trying to tell me I was wrong for pulling my daughter out. However, I am SO thankful I did. We transitioned her to Bluffs School and things have improved significantly. The teachers are all warm and have great energy, I love the director, and the tuition is only slightly more than The Learning Experience! Overall, we're happy we made the move. I also was to mention that you should read the positive reviews on Yelp. At least one is from an individual who thought they were posting a review for a toy store. Mistakes happen, but what I think is gross is The Learning Experience commented on that review thanking them for the positive review (see photo- in case they try to get this deleted).

This was our child's first daycare and within 10 days we had to pull him out due to serious neglect…read moreand abuse. He came home starving (with untouched food in his backpack), in urine-soaked clothes despite multiple outfit changes packed, and even signed in on days he wasn't there. Staff admitted they hadn't completed training, and the director "lost" medical paperwork we provided on day one. The final straw: I found deep nail marks on his arm, back, chest, and legs in different stages of healing, plus bruising on his ribs. I have proof from bath time the night before and security cameras the morning of drop-off that he had no marks, meaning this happened while in their care. The director dismissed it as a "lanyard," refused to let me file a complaint, and then willfully downplayed and excluded key facts (what marks were there, how many, and who was responsible). In doing so, she was culpable, negligent, and more concerned with protecting herself than protecting children. Later we learned other children had similar injuries, and that teachers were dragging crying kids into bathrooms, shutting the door, and isolating them as punishment. Two teachers were only let go after another staff member resigned and reported it to the health department. The result? My son developed night terrors, became withdrawn, and was referred by our pediatrician to play therapy to recover from the trauma. I don't normally write reviews, but parents deserve the truth: this center is unsafe, almost never in compliance, and still licensed. The director's willful negligence makes her directly responsible for failing the children in her care.
