    My son has been attending the Primary Colors in Slidell for the last 2-years, and for the entirety…read moreof that time, he has not had stability in a teacher. There was constant turnover to the point I never knew the name of the person in his class when I would drop off or pick-up. Fast forward to this year, my son had an incident in his class when he got a significant gash over his eye, and his glasses were broken. I asked to see the cameras and they told me that they did not work. When I asked why we weren't informed, they said that they didn't have to, "the cameras are a courtesy," though they advertise cameras. Now we are in May 2023, and on a Wednesday night, parents and teachers are sent the same message via the app and told they are closing permanently. They are not communicating when we can collect our children's things and are not responding. It's heartbreaking that they didn't even care enough about their own staff to inform them separately. We even saw teachers show up for work only to find out by the sign on the door. How can you trust your most precious treasure with this owner. They have had some amazing teachers, and I hope they land somewhere much better.

I picked up my son, and he had hives on his face and body in the zone stated he didn't have dairy and they're not sure why he had hives when I saw the hives on my soon all I could do is cry and took him to his doctors right away. My son also came home with a knot when a new teacher started so that's where I confronted in the zone and asked why I didn't get a call/ why was there no incident report/ what happened. Ms. Katie stated a report was done and they tried to contact me and that my son fell on a toy in my head I know my son and he's never that careless. Called in the zone 4x and even came up there I was upsetttttttt. The next day they say an incident report wasn't reported because the person that picked him up stated it was fine when the teach allegedly tried to take a picture for the report and stated it happened as he was coming into the door. I'm knowing in the zone and the teacher is lying to cover their asses. So, I call the person I had pick him up immediately and he couldn't believe the lies. He told me all the teacher did was tell him what happened, but not once did she pull out a tablet or even offered to take a picture. I immediately reached out to in the zone to let them know what I was told and that it sounds like my son wasn't being watched properly and I'd appreciate if it doesn't happen again. My son took a week to recover from a knot that happened in the possession of in the zone care. Two days later I get a call stating my son was left alone sleeping in the classroom alone while everyone was outside and that it would be reported to the state I was freaking furiousssss!!!!!!!!!!!!! In the zone would always try to get way more money than what they're worth. I always wondered why people would tell me they wouldn't recommend in the zone I thought it would be a cool place because of the busses.I also always wondered how one week they have availability and the next week they do now it all makes sense. My son would also come home with full diapers/ once poop inside his diaper during pickup/ snotty nose even after we asked to please start wiping his nose. My son also has eczema, and I sked multiple times to moisturize him Mrs. Jaie did an amazing job at that. After she moved up other teachers didn't do so good. He'd have dry skin it was horrible. My doctor went to inthe zone in Ocean Springs in January they were amazinggggggggggggggg from beginning to end. They actually cared about the kids and made sure they were safe. I would recommend in the zone Ocean Springs not in the zone St. Martin. The best 3 teachers that were amazing to my son even behind closed doors when I wasn't around was Mrs. Karen and the teacher that would be in there with her during the morning also I forgot her name. Every morning rs. Kren would welcome us with a beautiful smile/ positive attitude everyday if she ever had a bad day, you would never know because she greeted us with care and a beautiful smile every morning. Second would be Mrs. Jamey, she had a beautiful goofy personality and treated my kids with care she was amazingggggg and always kept me updated no matter what. Those 3 teachers made it worth coming to in the zone every single day. My son had a teacher before Mrs. Jamey that he would cry with and never want to go with I couldn't figure out why, but on Mrs. Jamey first day my son went to every single day without crying I couldn't believe it. My son is allergic to dairy, and I even provided a doctor's note to in the zone and one day I get a call stating he got a hold to a dairy product. how if he was being watched properly? I've been plotting for months to resign my son and finally did. y son started his new daycare it's secure so no one can get in the door without being buzzed no one can get into the classroom nor see inside of their classroom. They're very nice /affordable /ducked off. They also gave me updates throughout the day I loved it. All I can do is thank God that the nightmare is over. Also, I know business try to cover their asses, but I have every lick proof in my phone regarding this nightmare that FINALLY ended. .

    I really like the concept of Bricks 4 Kidz. The goal is to introduce children to architecture and…read moreengineering principals and learn patience and the importance of teamwork by playing and building projects using Lego bricks. I had never heard of this place until my nephew had a birthday party here. It sounded kind of like it would be boring, but it was so much fun! The kids all were given a specific project to build in small groups. One of the most popular one was a suspended track that was built out of nothing but Legos. Once the track was built each child was given a car and they spent a good amount of time racing the cars down the track. The party was hosted by two employees and they basically took care of everything. They entertained the kids with games, cut and handed out the cake and cleaned up afterwards. Speaking of the cake...it's not included in any of the party packages so you have to bring that in yourself in addition to all of the paper products and drinks. They also sell lots of Lego products for boys and girls. It was fun and I'd consider having a birthday party here in the future for my own kiddies.

Classes use the love of Legos and Learning to really enhance your child's experience. While they build and experiment with design, they also learn science and math terminology. My little one is a non stop chatter box after each Bricks experience. The classes are reasonable and worth every penny at 20.00 for an hour of fun packed Lego loving and learning. The day camp is $35 per day for 3 hours and my boy was over the moon! I witnessed a mother carrying a child out crying yesterday. A def compliment to Bricks, he simply just didn't want to leave. This site is equipped for all Lego ages, from beginning Duplo maniacs to the oh so experienced hard core Maniacs. They have a small retail section , that carried several items not found in local stores....Franchises are popping up everywhere, so if you have a maniac in your household, this is a place of wonder and discovery!!!

    This summer, I decided to try something new and enroll my 9 and 5-year-old sons in summer camp for…read morethe very first time. They attended Kidcam Camp in Slidell for about 2.5 weeks. While I had high hopes for the experience, unfortunately, our time with the camp was overwhelmingly negative and left me with serious concerns about the safety, attentiveness, and communication of the staff. During the second week, I arrived at aftercare to find my 5-year-old sitting shirtless at a table, completely unresponsive, with his head down. My 9-year-old was at a different table. They were the only children left, and there were two counselors present--Jill and a teenage staffer. Jill casually mentioned that my younger son didn't want to put his shirt on because he was hot and had been repeatedly asking when I was coming. But something felt off. When I reached him, I realized he was foaming at the mouth, eyes rolling back--he was having a seizure. I screamed for them to call 911, and he was rushed to the hospital. I still can't understand how a counselor could miss the signs of a 5-year-old in distress. Why wasn't I contacted when he kept asking for me? Why didn't anyone notice the seizure before I arrived? Despite this terrifying event, I allowed the kids to return the following week because I didn't want to take the experience away from them. I believed it was not the camp's fault he got sick--but a clear lapse in attentiveness. Then, another issue arose. My 9-year-old confided that while on a movie field trip, another camper threw a drink and popcorn on him and his brother. I was never notified. When I brought this up with Jill the next morning, she acknowledged it happened, but I was extremely upset that no one thought to inform me. Later that same day, I received a call from a staff member I had never met, asking me to pick my son up due to an "incident." When I arrived, I was told my son had hit another child and that the director and Jill decided he should not return to camp. There was no conversation, no opportunity to understand his side, and no communication from the actual camp director. This sudden decision, paired with the timing, felt more like retaliation than genuine concern--especially considering how I had challenged their communication that same morning. My son has no history of behavioral issues--he was awarded a "Good Citizen" award just last school year. To be abruptly dismissed without any real discussion was both hurtful and unprofessional. While I did receive a refund for the remaining week, the emotional impact and disappointment linger. From a lack of supervision during a medical emergency to poor communication and questionable disciplinary decisions, my experience with Kidcam Slidell left me with more worry than trust. I hope this review encourages the leadership to take a deeper look at how children are supervised and how parents are communicated with. Every child deserves to feel safe, seen, and heard--and unfortunately, mine did not. Jill is sensitive and unprofessional.
