This review, for now, only speaks to infant's care. I have no first-hand experience with any of…read moretheir programs yet. My wife and I, being new to the area, had to find daycare pretty quickly for our then 5-months old. Up until that point he was cared for by grandpa and we had very very high expectations from a daycare. We've decided to go with Cornerstone for several reasons. No complaints that we were able to find by looking at the TX state background check on the business. We have consulted with other parents and they all love the place. The caretakers have all been there for many years, are very dedicated, very warm and friendly and very good at strictly following parents' direction as well as care for the little ones. The price is competitive for the area. As for the entire facility, it is very clean, well taken care for and the staff is very friendly and eager to help. Our little one has been going here for months now and absolutely loves it. And we, as parents, are at ease knowing that he is in good hands. I highly recommend you give Cornerstone a try.

My wife and I checked out 7-8 day cares in Wylie 6 years ago when our daughter was born. We…read moreselected Cornerstone and have loved it ever since. At least 50% of the staff has been there since we started taking our daughter there, so they know us, her, and our two year old son. I never have any doubts at all as to whether they're keeping the child's well-being the number one priority of their day. I have heard other's (friends and strangers) horror stories of something that happened at the child's daycare, and I have literally NEVER had a concern that wasn't addressed within minutes, NEVER had a doubt whether or not they had a careful compassionate eye on my child all day, and NEVER found any reason to think that there was anything but love for my kids while in Cornerstone's care. We're moving, and it was a hard decision to make for a couple of reasons. One was ABSOLUTELY DEFINITELY the loving, attentive care our kids received at Cornerstone for five years and eight months and whether or not we could find a facility that we could trust with our children's well-being. If you're looking in Wylie, I would look at a few other facilities and then go to Cornerstone to see what the others are missing. Thanks from the bottom of our hearts ladies, you've meant the world to us.

Since today was the last day of my semester, I wanted to write this review about my experience at…read moreKids Unlimited Early Care and Education. The Quran and the Bible carry a common message: a good person helps people who need support. My experience at this center showed me the meaning of kindness and support. I am a resident of Wylie, and I needed observation hours for my bachelor's degree in education. I needed to complete my hours in Wylie because it was summer break, my children were at home, and I also needed to help take care of my elderly mother. I contacted many centers in Wylie and asked if I could complete my observation hours there. Unfortunately, some places did not give me an opportunity after they learned that I am Muslim. Then I contacted Kids Unlimited Early Care and Education and asked if I could observe at their center during July 2026. The Director, Ms. Vanessa Arce, welcomed me and treated me with kindness and respect. She completed my background check, and after everything was approved, she allowed me to complete my observation hours at the center. From my first day there, I felt welcomed. I saw how the teachers cared for the children, how the center was organized, and how much attention was given to creating a safe and positive environment for children. The center even has an indoor playground, which I thought was wonderful for the children. I promised myself that I would write a review so that other people could know about my experience. Ms. Vanessa Arce showed me that kindness and understanding can make a big difference in someone's life. At a time when I was having difficulty finding a place to complete my required hours, she gave me an opportunity and treated me with respect. I would encourage parents to look beyond just the services a childcare center provides. Before choosing a center, I believe it is important to learn about how the center treats families, teachers, children, and the community. I would like to sincerely thank Ms. Vanessa Arce, Center Director, for welcoming me, supporting me, and allowing me to complete my observation hours at Kids Unlimited. I am very grateful for the kindness and respect I experienced there. Thank you for opening your doors to me and giving me an opportunity when I needed it. I will always remember your kindness.

I would not recommend this daycare, especially for anyone with an infant. We had multiple issues…read moreduring our time there, and every mistake happened when a floating or substitute teacher was watching my baby. It honestly made me question how well the staff are trained and how the daycare is being managed. I do want to say that her main teachers were amazing and loved my baby so well. I truly appreciated the care and affection they showed her, and I never want my experience to take away from the good things they did for her. From what I observed, they also seemed frustrated with some of the staffing decisions and understood that there were issues with how the daycare was being run. My concerns are not with the love her main teachers showed her, but with the management and the lack of consistency when other staff members were responsible for her care. The biggest concern was when my baby was laid on her side to sleep. When I first asked about it, I was told she had rolled onto her side herself, even though she cannot roll yet. When I went up there to address it in person, the director admitted that they had placed her on her side and acknowledged that it was against safe sleep guidelines. I was extremely upset that I was initially given an explanation that was not true. Safe sleep is not something that should be taken lightly, especially when it comes to infants. There were also multiple issues with her feeding schedule. She was fed 12 ounces back-to-back because a feeding had not been documented, and another time she was fed an hour early because the teacher did not know her schedule. These are things that should not be happening when staff are responsible for caring for a baby who relies on them to follow her routine. Another concerning experience was when I went to pick her up and did not even recognize the teachers who were watching her. I had never been told that different staff members would be caring for her, and the teachers did not know who I was or which baby I was there to pick up. That made me extremely uncomfortable and raised serious concerns about communication, supervision, and pickup procedures. After all of this, I decided to pull my baby out and move her to another daycare. Before leaving, I specifically asked the director to remove my bank account from autopay. I was told they did not know how to do that, which was concerning in itself. Having to deal with billing issues after everything else was incredibly frustrating. Overall, I have serious concerns about the training of the staff and the way the director manages the daycare. I also do not feel the director knows how to communicate with parents or handle concerns professionally. Instead of feeling reassured when I brought up issues, I was left feeling even more uncomfortable with the care my baby was receiving. It is especially disappointing because her main teachers were so wonderful to her, but the lack of consistency with substitute staff and the management issues overshadowed that. Leaving your baby with someone else requires a lot of trust, and unfortunately, this daycare did not give me a reason to feel confident in that trust. Between the safe sleep issue, feeding mistakes, lack of communication about who was watching my baby, concerns with pickup procedures, and billing problems, I decided it was best to take her somewhere else. I am grateful for the teachers who genuinely loved and cared for my baby, but I believe the management needs to make significant changes. No parent should have to worry about these things when leaving their child in someone else's care.

Excellent curriculum with lots of fun crafts, nutritious meals, activities and field trips. Lots of outdoor time to explore and many opportunities for the kids to use their imagination.

I am a teacher, so of course I…read moreliked that they were learning cool things like letters and numbers, but couldn't quiet that feeling that my boys were missing out on what really matters. A co-worker told me about Mrs. Jackie's home daycare. Even though I wanted more for them, I was hesitant because transition is hard on little ones; but my co-worker's insistance about how happy her son was made me want to check it out. My boys have now been at Mrs. Jackie's for almost a year and I cannot begin to express my appreciation for all that these amazing teachers do. Firstly, they have a small teacher to student ratio, which means they get lots of snuggles and indivualized attention. For example, my two year old can't seem to get enough books right now. I can tell you he gets plenty of lap time with his books throughout the day. In fact, just yesterday he got to help make lunch with one of his teachers. He was so proud! That is the kind of stuff I wish I could be doing with them during the day, but knowing they are getting that type of interaction is second best to being home with mom. So what else is so wonderful? Well, they get to play and just be kids, but in a very caring and enriching environment. They go to the library, park, and other field trips throughout the month. The daily curriculum is structured and hands-on. Right now they are learning about the human body. The activities have ranged from feeling spaghetti to learn about the brain and the importance of protecting their head to playing a game where they pretended to pull teeth as they learned about oral health. Fun stuff! Oh, they get letters and numbers, too, but so, so much more. The teachers take the time and patience to teach my sons how to be polite and obedient in a very loving way. There is no doubt they are LOVED. I know it, and they do too! The teachers regard their job as a calling. They do what they do because they care and understand the important role they play in the lives of these little ones. I would love to say more, but this is getting long... just know that Mrs. Jackie's Happy Hearts Home Daycare is unlike any other. They are like family to my kids... and me too, because I truley love them for the peace they've given me; and the love they've given my boys.

Noticed that all these reviews are at least 2 years old, so wanted to add some new perspective. My…read morechild, who is now 2, has been attending since she was 6 weeks old. The infant room is really consistent about keeping the same 2 teachers, and very low ratios. Ms Sadia is amazing, and helped me, as a first time mom, to know my child was safe and well cared for. All the teachers here really love the kids, and it's obvious. Her teachers from when she was an infant still say hi to her and want to check in and see how she's doing. The toddler rooms are also great. Most of the teachers have been here for several years, so there's a lot of consistency for the kids. I can't speak to the preschool curriculum, since we aren't there yet, but my child was learning even as a toddler about numbers, letters, colors, etc. Music classes are once a week, with more activities available as the kids get older. Right now, in the summer, we have splash pad days twice a week, which my child always looks forward to. The front desk staff -has- had some turnover the last year or so, but seems to have settled back down. Ms Amanda, Ms Kenya and Ms Aisha are all extremely responsive and are great at resolving any issues which come up. The only thing stopping me from a 5 star review is some of the technology, as we did have some trouble with the Tadpoles reports, but they have recently switched to a new vendor, so hopefully this will improve.
