We had a horrible experience at The Learning Garden. They terminated their services for our 4year old son because the management didn't want to have to be bothered with adjusting their rigid rules to accommodate his needs. They gave us a 2-week notice, fully understanding that all local facilities have long wait lists.
We have since learned that the owner of this facility has a long history of doing this to children of all ages that don't fit into their rigid schedule. Children as young as 1 year have been kicked out because they didn't develop fast enough, were too fussy, couldn't sit still during circle time, were too active, etc. This leaves full time working parents scrambling and young kids anxious about school before they are even old enough to understand the concept of school.
The owner refused to meet with us to discuss our concerns with our child and has done the same thing to other parents stating they will only talk to parents over the phone. When we requested a conference to discuss different methods of working with our child, we received a termination letter.
I would avoid this center at all costs.
For many more examples of the discriminatory practices that have occurred at this daycare facility, please join the Oldham County Grapevine group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/ocgrapevine/) and search for The Learning Garden.
Thank You,
