I can't say enough good things about Aunt Kathy's! Both of my girls have gone there since they were…read morebabies and the staff is amazing with them! I never worry when I drop them off because I know they are well taken care of. It's clean, they've done lots of updates to add more space and have also updated the outdoor play area.

I am currently an employee and a parent at Alphaland. I can tell you from both sides that Deanna…read morealways puts her employees and the children in her care first. She is an amazing person and you can see that through her employees. She has been working very hard to keep the center updated and is expecting to have 3 stars within the next year!

The center provides reliable and supportive before and after-school programs, an engaging summer program, and a daycare that prepares children to transition into the school environment.

Completely disappointed with the lack of leadership and lack of sincere care and commitment to…read morechildren at Mt. Washington Baptist Daycare. The Director does not have the skills nor the passion needed and necessary to run a functional childcare center. When concerns are escalated to her she takes a passive "sweep it under the rug approach". Hires anyone off the street. Most (not all, Roseanne and Tosha on the kid side genuinely care for the children) of the staff are grossly unprepared and unqualified to take proper care of children. PK room in a nightmare with unfit and inadequate staff. No care or compassion for children. Bad attitudes, poor communication, and subpar care. After raising concerns to the Director to no avail, I ask for information for who she reports to and she refused to provide the information. However, I reached out to the Church and was able to to obtain the information. After raising concerns of ADA discrimination and retaliation, to the daycare board members Jill and Karen and receiving a careless "not my job but willing because I am being made to" response to a meeting request. Still wondering who is accountable for the safety and well-being of the children of Mt. Washington Baptist Daycare? "Hello Ms. Normally. this is not within the realm of the Daycare Committee's responsibilities. However, since several discussions with Holly and with Ken have occurred, they asked if we would be willing to meet with you. Jill and I both have crowded schedules due to our jobs and vacations coming up very soon, but we are available this Friday, June 16 around 5:00 pm, or whenever you normally pick up your child from Daycare. Please let us know if you're available. Regards, Karen and Jill, Co-Chairpersons-Mt. Washington Baptist Daycare" After receiving this alarming response I immediately removed to children from the center. They are all close personal friends and that obviously comes before taking ownership and correcting wrongdoing on their part. Beware and be careful when choosing a childcare provider. I know that this is the cheapest center around but you pay with the level of care your child will receive.

I absolutely love the summer camp at Goddard in Anderson. I have never seen a camp that keeps the kids so active and having fun, all summer long with their mini camps and endless field trips!!

We attended Goddard with our 2 boys - 3 and 1 and would give this school less than 1 star if…read moreallowed, as we would not recommend to any parent who wants their child in safe learning environment. It was a matter of days before our oldest came home with bite marks on several occasions, in addition to other injuries at the hands of other students. Most recently he was hit in the face that resulted in a swollen handprint on the side of his face, and kicked in the face during story time the very next day which split his lip open. Our youngest - 18 months at the time - was repeatedly bit in his classroom, leaving very defined and swollen bite marks, some of which broke the skin. He was scratched across his face and neck, and given a black eye by another child who hit him with a toy. Several bites and other injuries went unnoticed by teachers who had no idea our child was injured when we inquired about what had lead to the incidents. These incidents happened in the matter of 3 weeks. The administration of this school is defiant in their approach to ensuring the safety of kids in their classroom. We repeatedly asked for changes to be made to prevent our kids from getting hurt, only to be met with opposition and called liars by the assistant director Kaitlyn Japikse and owner Mark Reinhart. The teachers who assisted us were promptly reassigned to different rooms that were not of their choosing out of retaliation from the owner. Mark and his staff do not follow any disciplinary action plans, document the children who cause injury and refuse to remove kids from the room due to their belief it does not reinforce positive behaviors and violent behavior is "developmentally / age appropriate". Mark will also tell you to take your kids to a different school / disenroll you if you do not agree with their approach that severe injuries in their classrooms are developmentally appropriate and the result of normal childhood behavior. The disgraceful treatment of families by Mark goes against everything this school states they advocate for and we would not recommend this school to anyone.
