My daughter is in her second year and she has learned so much academically and about the bible. We heard about this prescchool from my brother as his children had previously attended. We definitely made the right choice sending our child here. The staff are wonderful to work with and have an obvious love for children. We are thrilled that our daughter can learn about God and at the same time learn what she needs prior to kindergarten. What a blessing. We are very thankful for this school.

Children are given many opportunities to explore through teacher directed hands-on activities and self-initiated play in learning centers. Good, positive moral values are reinforced through a rich and meaningful curriculum. Christian values are also an important component of our program with daily devotion times and weekly chapel. Tours to prospective parents are available on Tu., We., and Thur. each week. Please contact us first to schedule a tour of our facility.

We chose this daycare because of its convenient location directly across from our workplace. During…read moreour tour, we were told they accept YWCA childcare assistance. We provided copies of our recent pay stubs as part of the process. Based on our income, we anticipated qualifying for assistance. However, we were informed that they do not accept back pay and that families must cover full tuition out-of-pocket until subsidy approval is finalized. In our case, the approval process took eight weeks. That would have required paying two months of tuition upfront while waiting for assistance. If a center works with YWCA-funded families regularly, it was unclear why no flexibility could be offered given the documented income information we provided. For many working families, paying full tuition for weeks -- or months -- while waiting on approval defeats the purpose of childcare assistance. Families relying on subsidy support should make sure they fully understand this policy before enrolling. To make a long story short if you can't afford the daycare tuition on your own, don't even apply.

I would not recommend Brookhaven KinderCare in Gurnee, IL…read more We ultimately withdrew our child due to repeated concerns around care, communication, and leadership. Despite clear conversations and expectations, decisions about my child's care were made without parental consent or advance communication. More concerning, the center repeatedly appeared to be out of compliance with Illinois state child-to-teacher ratio requirements. On several occasions, I picked up my child soiled, which is unacceptable in any licensed childcare setting and suggests a lack of adequate staffing and supervision. When these concerns were raised, the response from center leadership was dismissive and unprofessional rather than solution-oriented. There was little accountability, collaboration, or willingness to address issues proactively. Childcare requires trust, transparency, and partnership with parents. Unfortunately, this location consistently fell short in all three areas.

Daycares are hard to choose. As a mom, i am terrified to make the wrong choice and expose my baby…read moreto bad people. As a single mom, I have to make that decision all alone. Deciding to start my daughter here over a year ago was a decision I never regretted. At 3 months old, my daughter probably didn't have a preference but she instantly took to her teachers. She wasn't worried when I left and enjoyed being here. I got a call halfway through her first day to let me know she was ok and update me. Over the past year, this staff has gone above and beyond for my children. From allowing my older daughter to attend for the week between school and summer camp, to being a smiling face when my kid has a full diaper from the car ride and is screaming. They have communicated with me over and beyond. Now that my daughter is over 1 and has preferences, she loves it as well. She comes in every morning ready to wave as she is greeted by not only her current teachers but her past reaches as well. Her little face lights up and she is smiling from ear to ear. My desk is covered with pictures of her in activities and arts and crafts projects she has done. The price of daycare is astronomical! But I always feel like I got my money's worth at this Kindercare. I would recommend it to anyone!!!

When I started…read morebringing my daughter here about 6 months back I thought it was the best daycare because of the love Ms. Sophia has for her children. Well just recently my mother dropped my 2 year old off like a normal thing. And as she was leaving she heard the director (Wanda) yelling at a child "Noo! Don't do that pick it up!!!!" My mom decided to stick around longer to see if she would continue yelling. And she did so she went to the main hallway and saw through the window Wanda had grabbed a chair and forcefully sat MY 2 year old down and tied her own scarf around my babies arms together while placing her leg between my babies privates to restrict her form moving. We have a dcfs case open with this lady. This is a parents worst nightmare!!! My baby is not the same any more :( . Parents if your child cries or doesn't want to stay at a daycare they're most likely being abused please be careful and take care of your children.
