They come home quoting scripture and have memorized some great bible stories. My 4 year old is beginning to read and my 3 year old is learning to write. Miss Stahl and Mrs Young in the 4 year old class are amazing teachers and I highly recommend them. Redeemer has given my soon to be kindergartener a great foundation for school.

Leman Academy Central only gets 1 star because I can't give less. If I was rating on academics only…read moreI would have given 5 stars; however, this particular campus has a severe bullying issue that they DO NOT handle. The bully is allowed to continue without consequences and the victims are left to feel unsafe and some students have been removed by parents because of it. The school policies state that bullying is not tollerated; however, Central refuses to take corrective action and protects those doing the bullying over the victims. This leaves me to think that the bullies are related to some staff OR the campus just simply doesn't care. The victim is left feeling unsafe in an environment that should be and it leaves the bully not having any consequences to learn that this violent behavior is dangerous. The stance Central is taking is only serving the purpose of grooming future violence we see all to many times on the news. If you want your child to attend Leman Academy of Excellence choose another campus but stay far away from Central for your child's sake.

Really had high hopes for this daycare, as there are few good options on the NW side of town. Felt…read moreexcited about it after the tour but bringing my 1 yr old in quickly became a major source of anxiety every day. My son is typically a very social, happy, and engaged boy and even at our first daycare, which we did not love for similar issues, he at least was very very quick to warm up and happy to be there. This place was a different story altogether and my main and major gripe is with the young ones teacher, Ms. Ryann--cold, detached, minimally engaged. I spent 40 minutes with my son to help him ease in on his first day at this daycare. The whole time I was in the 1 year old room, his teacher did not greet either of us, did not offer to show us where to put things....nothing. I had to go up to her and ask her right as I had to leave. She did barely anything to comfort my son when he burst into tears when I went to leave. All big red flags to me. It continued like that for our whole time there and from the times I was able to check in on the livestreams, it was the same thing from this teacher -- bare minimum greetings or verbal/app updates, no warmth towards my son as he'd walk around crying by himself throughout the mornings, no attempts to get him to join the other babies as she sat in the corner with them like a lazy lump doing no activities any time I looked in. Wouldn't know if she ever did since she never sent a single update picture the entire time we stayed there. Every day when I dropped him off and picked him up, he would totally melt down and cling to me--very different from his typical personality and even very different from his quick and easy adjustment period at his last daycare. The only day he seemed happy at pickup AND the only day we got a single picture update was a day another teacher covered. That teacher actually led art activities and I saw her smiling and engaging with him and the other babies each time I checked the livestream. The difference in his demeanor was night and day, after just one day On top of all that, he was being offered hardly any water while he was there with the normal teacher, as evidenced by a sudden and notable change in his BMs, his desire to guzzle the water I offered him at pick up and from me beginning to monitor the water level of his cup at drop off and pick up (which didn't change at all on multiple days) When we toured, one of my main concerns was that his last daycare wasn't actually taking the babies outside to play at all and we were assured these kiddos went out practically every single morning. I did tend to bring him at the tail end of the time the babies were supposed to be outside most mornings, but there was never any sign of the others being outside. Yet, when I would check the cameras to see if my baby was having a better time later in the AM (about an hour or so after drop off and the time they were meant to be outside), the kids wouldn't be visible on cameras as it seemed they were outside.... I asked about this and was told they werent actually outside at this time, just "watching the other kids play from the door"....because why?? Sounds kind of mean to not let them get their own play time, but make them watch others play...probably just because the teachers themselves wanted to socialize. That's an assumption, to be fair, but not far fetched imo To be transparent, we were only there for about 2 weeks/7 actual days. I let the director know concerns at disenrollment but didn't wait around for her to address them--time is short and everything in my gut was saying this situation sucked for him. The director didn't seem bad, and the rest of the staff was at least friendly on surface level so 2 stars instead of 1 SO happy we switched places, as it was an immediate change in his happiness and demeanor on day 1 and every single day since. We're greeted warmly and he gets right into playing happily. Hes all smiles at pickup, and we get tons of activity photos all day long. They go outside every morning and sometimes in PM and his poo is magically back to normal! Who would have thought warm energy and offering water could make such an immediate and drastic difference

Open Arms Preschool is excellent,…read more My son has attended Open Arms for the last two years. When we chose Open Arms it was easy because the staff was so accommodating and friendly. The attitude I'd see reflected as love throughout the school It was so great to find a school for toddlers not yet potty trained and all to have all meals and snacks provided My son went through the infant program and it was great for him; so much growth!! He interacted with the other babies but still got the individual infant care he needed, The daily reports are valuable, The love and care of the individual babies was apparent to me with my son amd is everytime I walk by the infant room Now my son is in the toddler program, Again, I am so impressed with the program; they are all engaged,Cool and interesting lesson topics I can see the teachers control the environment and not the kids. Everyday I see all the teacher interacting with all the kids I like the daily activities and the daily report naps and curriculum learned. Here's the bottom line review...My son has a great home but everyday I pick him up, he wants to stay at Open Arms I will keep him at Open Arms through all of their programs

The behavior of my kids has changed and they are a lot more respectful and listen to me more. I have recommended this school to all my friends, it really is such a wonderful place.

We love Montessori Learning School! Our son has been attending the toddler program for one year now…read moreand we've had such a positive experience. The program director and teachers have really gone above and beyond to help support our son's development. We were especially appreciative of their support during potty training and learning to use gentle hands with peers. I have loved the emphasis on building independence and our son does a great job with putting on clothes/shoes, mealtime routines, cleaning up messes, etc. The students have "jobs" they select and complete, and these tasks have helped our son with his focus, problem solving, and fine skills (just to name a few). Our family also loves that the toddler program is Spanish immersion. Our son is currently 2.5 and is talking more and has such positive things to say about his teachers, classmates, and experiences at school. His favorite is when Mr. Bruce (a music teacher) comes to visit. We toured quite a few programs in the area and really appreciated how intentional MLS is. We highly recommend MLS

She won't have change and then won't credit you or give it back even if promised. When they close for any reason, they won't inform you. You show up to a locked building with the lights out.

I'm open to changing my review if I ever receive a call back or an email. My husband and I have…read moreattempted to reach out via phone 4 times ( 1 time speaking to someone, Melissa I believe) and 3 times via email over the past month. I believe the intake call went well, I was pleased with thorough information that was provided to me and the sincerity of the representative I spoke to. I was so excited to get the follow up text and have my daughter signed up for the assessment. However the follow-up link ( via text) never came and when I reached out and left voicemails and emailed no one responded. My husband then tried and didn't receive a response. The intake call was about 20 minutes long , I know this is going to sound silly but my daughter was going through a rough patch as a parent I'm sharing information about my child to someone who I thought could help her and seemed interested, capable and qualified to do so, so when I never heard back it felt in a sense my family, was for lack of better term "ghosted" by the rep. If they are full and not accepting any more clients, I can understand but a simple response to us via email would suffice. My advice is to have a response turnaround time( 72 hours at least) whether good or bad news, that will allow potential customers to not waste their time trying to give you their business. I hope this helps someone who may have been "ghosted"; You matter, your child matters and there are other businesses that will give you the courtesy of responding!

My son has been at Kindercare since he was 3 months old, and I have nothing but good things to say!…read moreHe learns so much and has a great time, and he's always incredibly happy to see his teacher and friends when I drop him off in the mornings. Reasons we love Kindercare: - The facility is in great shape, it's always clean, and everything feels very safe. Toys are always sanitized, which is great when little ones chew on everything! - They've always done a great job with feeding, starting out with bottles and helping him transition to "big kid food" and sippy cups. They serve a good variety of food with plenty of fruits and veggies, and I'm jealous of what he gets to eat-- especially on French toast day when the whole daycare smells amazing! - The teachers obviously love what they do and love the kids to pieces. My son is all smiles when he sees his teacher! - There are plenty of rules for health and safety, how to handle sick kids, and the like. His teachers have called right away when he's been sick, and they keep us very up-to-date about more minor things like diaper rash and teething. - Everything is documented, which is a huge help to this data geek. Every day I get a sheet that tells me how he ate, napped, and diapered, and I'm glad that everything's on the up-and-up. While I was worried about leaving my first kid at daycare when I first ended maternity leave, I haven't had a single worry about him being here. He's happy and safe, and that makes me happy!

I've been to a few classes thus far and I have to say that Kim is a fun instructor that keeps me entertained and sweating. The dances are fun and there's a wide range of people there. On occasion, Kim seems to lose track of where in the dance we are and give the wrong instruction. But, she is able to correct herself quickly. And I must admit that if I had to memorize that much choreography, I'd probably forget as well. The Zumba schedule is kind of limiting and I really wish they would offer more classes on the weekends, when I actually have time to go.
