Will never take my son back. My son had an autistic kid that sat with him. That child would bite my…read moreson, I found out after the first 3 days. when I was given my son a bath. He had bite marks on his back, and arms. The school never took care of it, so my son went back and for 2 more days because he liked it and he was making friends. Well the one teacher of his classroom who isn't even license to be a teacher or have any certification to be around children. She screamed at my son and grabbed his arm when he went to his bag to grab his water bottle. Screaming to the point where he was crying and shaking when I picked him up. So I confronted the principal of the school and the teacher. I said how are you going to scream at a 3 yr old for taking a drink when you got your yetis filled with drinks and your Starbucks drinks here on your desks. And my son can't have a sip of water. I pulled him out after that.

My twins were enrolled in TLE since January. I can only speak to the infant experience, but I would…read moreadvise any parent who is able to enroll your infants in a different daycare to do so. During our time at TLE, there were two different owners, but we continued to see the same issues. These were what we witnessed during our time at TLE: 1. Our son has issues with his feeding that require him to be held upright during feeding. Multiple times, this simple and medically necessary request was not followed causing him to projectile vomit and stop breathing. We trained multiple teachers and very few seemed to actually follow through with this request. 2. They will feed your children slumped on the floor. I have photo evidence of them feeding my son on the ground with his neck positioned in a right angle. 3. The floors were filthy even though they said there's a cleaner. Crumbs everywhere and carpets had weeks' worth of spit up stains. Former employees mentioned cockroaches as well. 4. Our son was given medication without calling us for consent multiple times. 5. They skipped multiple feedings and our children constantly came home with diaper rash because they weren't changed for over 3 hours. 6. They had so much turnover and so many different teachers throughout the day that they had to label our kid with tape to make sure he didn't get mistaken for another kid. Kind of funny but also speaks to the stability of the place. We voiced our concerns so many times, so this shouldn't come to a shock to TLE but they also took 0 actions to remedy any of this. There's a few good teachers at TLE, but owners, directors, and fill in teachers don't care enough to make sure your kids are safe. If you're able to, pay a little more and go elsewhere to protect your child.

Overall, the teachers are kind, accepting and genuinely care about our children; we couldn't ask for anything more.

They've stayed consistent with nurturing children into kind, social beings all while teaching them the preschool basics. They're creative with circle time, the books that are read, what activities are done and what snacks are served.

The teachers and director always have time before or after school to chat and I've never felt rushed asking them about how my kid is doing.

I guess my opinion of this place is..... If you cannot get into anywhere else this is where you go…read more The building is piece worked and not cleaned regularly, Although they may run a vacuum around at the end of the day it needs a good hot mop and some Lysol. The rooms seem over crowded with children. Most of the teachers seem ok or at least they provide adequate service for what they are paid. I know the ownership has changed in the last few months and the new director seems to be cleaning up a bit. She focused on her office first. So that shows some priorities. The play ground is a big rubber mat no grass. Most of the toys are old and broke,and the balls look like they should all be thrown out. Parking is pretty bad when it's busy but you can just park in the handicap spots like all the other people that do and shouldn't. All in all there are much better places in the area for the same price or just a few dollars more.

Not sure if they still do this but when we had water time (which was a fountain of water we could play in) we were separated by a short short wall which we could all see over, and we could see eachother changing into our swimsuits. Love the school overall, had most of my childhood there. Also there were short walls as our bathoom stalls which boys could see girls peeing, and the door always had to be open which made me a bit uncomfortable.

I can't describe what my family is going through right now with this school--I had to pull both of…read moremy children out last week from the Pre-K program. Not only did my son not grow academically while he was here, he was belittled and humiliated for having an accident at school by one of the teachers. Another teacher accused him of touching other children "inappropriately" while playing "doctor"--(which the students are not supposed to play, but the teacher in that classroom is so disorganized and lazy that she doesn't supervise the kids--bottom line is no adult saw anything, they just wanted him out because he has an IEP and challenged them...). This was our final straw....we pulled our children out and have them already enrolled in another school. I feel awful for my kids for having to start in a new setting halfway through the year, but I know it will be for the best. Since pulling them out, many other parents are now sharing their horror stories with me about this place and are pulling their kids too! Unless they change leadership and some of the teachers, I urge you to look elsewhere!

Two of my children went to Hope and I can't say anything but nice things about the teachers they…read moreemploy there. I sent my children to Hope because my brothers and sisters all went to there and I knew it was a good school with amazing teachers and a lot of friends still recommended it. I do not have any plans to send my third child there as my experience this year was unacceptable. In past years there's been some issues here and there with the director. One was when my son had eye surgery; an effect of it was extremely bloodshot eyes. He was self conscious about it to begin with but then on his first day back at school the director announces loudly Oh My God what happened to his eyes. An adult should know not to do something like that and if she had questions she could have asked myself privately or his teachers who were well aware of the surgery and the side effects and had been prepping the kids for my son's return. Another issue we had was the director waited extremely long to cash checks. Months would go by and they wouldn't be cashed. But the kicker and final straw occured this year while my son as well as many others approached his teacher and the director about a bullying situation. Another child was picking on the boys of the class and hitting, pinching, kicking etc. This went on and on and on and the teacher didn't really do much. So finally myself and another parent addressed it to the director who let it roll right down her back like it was nothing. It got to the point where kids were terrified to go to school because of this child but since the school accepts all children they could not do anything. They also have no anti-bully rules and were unwilling to create them for the current school year. One day my son came home from school actually bleeding from the child and again I was told that they didn't actually see it happen so nothing would be done unless they could see it. She then went on to tell me that you can't just accuse people without facts even though 50% of the class had admitted to parents as well as the teacher they've been bullied. My response to that was look at the legal system every day criminals go on trial based on assumptions and she agreed that was a good point but I was still wrong and they would continue doing things they way she felt was best. She actually told me that they've only ever removed one child from their program due to the fact he continuously threw chairs!!!! I couldn't believe what I was hearing that a child had to on more than one occassion throw chairs at people before they were removed from the school. I want my children to be safe when they go to school and that statement right there proved that they are not safe at Hope Church Nursery School.

Felt inspired to give a personal perspective on hope in response. Hope is a wonderful place. Terrific, experienced teachers, a great group of kids and families, and charming and fun term end concerts. Our kids have great memories of Hope, and I still remember dropping off teary three year olds on the first day only to have them later on refuse to leave at the end of the morning because they loved their time there so much. It is a classic nursery school, probably not much different than the one I attended 4 decades ago, run by a warm and energetic director and fantastic teachers. We were lucky to have had the kids there.
