Her patience, kindness, and genuine passion for teaching/nurturing these kids shine through in everything she does.

I strongly caution any parent considering Castle Brook Academy. The environment often felt…read morestressful rather than nurturing, and some staff interactions with children were rough or inappropriate. Screens and videos are used everyday with children of all ages, including infants. The facility does not have cameras, making it hard to know what's happening throughout the day. Since transferring my kids to a different daycare, their entire demeanors have changed. My heart aches seeing how much my children are thriving in a healthy environment now. I only wish I had realized sooner how harmful Castle Brook really was.

We love everyone at Castle Brook and are glad we found them. Ms. Stephanie and Ms. Eisha are so…read morewelcoming, friendly and helpful every time we arrive. Ms. Peggy and Ms. Nora are great with the VPK4 kids. Both are great with fostering an amazing learning environment while encouraging the kids to have fun together. I was able to witness Ms. Peggy and Ms. Stephanie handle a behavior issue with my child and both were very firm yet loving while helping my child understand the appropriate and expected behavior in the future. Ms. Pam is always friendly and does a great job with preparing great meals for all of the kids. We would recommend Castle Brook for anyone that is looking any of the childcare services they provide.

From my very first call, Ms. Tomeka, the head of school, was incredible and made me feel confident about enrolling my daughter. She began in the Nido classroom and has since transitioned to the toddler room, where all of her guides have been nothing short of amazing. Our daughter is genuinely excited to go to school each day, most mornings she runs right into the classroom! The guides and school leadership are warm, communicative, and always quick to answer any questions we have. We've seen our daughter grow, learn, and thrive so much, and we truly have Guidepost to thank for that

We moved to the JAX area about 2 years ago. It took us some time to find an actual Montessori…read moreschool that lived up to the Montessori name. We experienced schools in the area called "Montessori" and are nothing but the opposite. Ms Tomeka had done a fantastic job with this school. All the staff are well trained and educated in Montessori methods. We've seen our little one grow and become more independent that we could have imagined at such a young age. Not to mention the amount of love and care from the teachers towards the kids and us as parents. I highly recommend this school.

Horrible! My daughter and I have both emailed her several times since April (2.5 months) trying to…read moresign up my granddaughter for swim lessons. She has responded like 2x and then when you reply she never responds. I even filled out the registration form on her website - no response. She sends my daughter her schedule. I show up 2 weeks later to one of the times on her schedule. The facility says she is NEVER and has NEVER been there on that day so I show up the other day on her schedule. She is very rude and tells me her best communication is email. That's funny because you don't respond. I told her I showed up the other day and her response was oh my schedule changed. Then why did you send that schedule??

The tuition includes everything; loupes, books, the boards, and scrubs. The staff is pretty awesome, and they genuinely care about your success. Ms. Eaton is the program director, and she's a riot. You can tell that she cares about her students. The academic advisors and finance department are extremely helpful, and always respond so quickly. I dealt with Ms. Kim and Ms. Diana, they are both wonderful. They are always willing to find a solution to any problem. I am glad I found this college, I had no idea it even existed until I checked the accreditation website. Do yourself a favor, and go check it out!

You pay $20k for the program and they can't get a new dummy or a few updated instrument trays!!! LAME! There has been several teachers and program directors of the program quit recently. They have also lost accreditation. I am a previous student and have successfully found employment but want to warn other students to look elsewhere for this program. Many hospitals won't even take students from SBI for clinical externship hours, Save your money and go to FSCJ or Fortis or Concorde. Those places are accredited and have great reps among hospitals.
