They have always been well cared for and well loved. Our oldest even asks to go to school on the weekends.

Their pricing is very reasonable compared to some other daycares.

When we went to check out the day care the owner Lynn was very nice and talked very highly of herself. We have a son who is non verbal and she had told us she has had experience with children that have disabilities, and we were signed up and looking forward to brining our son there that following Monday. It was too good to be true. She didn't even make it through lunch time before we got a call that she couldn't watch him because he was too much, keep in mind he is a 3 year old boy who is in a brand new environment with all these new toys and new children, he was over whelmed. She gave up on him just like that. I came to find out that we were not the only family this has happened to.

Since she has been there the director and Assistant director have been visible and very hands on and accessible! Excellent at parent notifications and maintaining safety at the school-classrooms have keypads! Her teacher Miss Stephanie in the three year old class is exceptional! Professional, loving, caring and she is adored by her students! My granddaughter loves her and looks forward each day to going to school! A fantastic teacher. From a grandmother's perspective and that of a retired PreK teacher of 28 years I give my absolute seal of approval!

The children here seemed happy and there is usually a long wait list to get in the school because of their good reputation, but it is worth it. I like the structured routine, the caring staff and that she actually learned a few things during her time as a student. I would randomly stop in and have lunch and was always welcomed. I could see the positive way the children interacted with each other. They were very good with parent involvement and would have activities once a month. The prices are incredibly reasonable and they provide breakfast, lunch and snacks. Highly recommended! The happiness of the children attending this school is real!

I went through the accreditation process and got that school accredited. I showed up everyday and never called off unless I was really sick. Well... I was fired on 11/10/21 because I decided that I want to open my own daycare. The owner has known this for the last 9 months and was totally fine with it, but now ALL OF A SUDDEN... it's a conflict of interest and I might try to talk to the parents and take her children to my school. This is all because she wanted me to take over her school and after thoughtful consideration, I decided not to, so she used that against me. I left the school for 15 minutes and returned to get my belongings and she had someone there changing the locks on all of the doors (smh) as if I want to steal her stuff. again, smh. There is SO MUCH that I could expose about this school, but I'm bigger than that so I won't... Just know that my school will be open soon and I am very happy and excited! On to a more quality space and positive vibes. You all have a great day : ) Peace, Love and Light. Ms. Annie

My daughter and I transitioned from the Palm Harbor Location to this location back in March 2020…read more We had to adjust to a new school with some new teachers and new classmates. Management helped ease the transition both as a staff member and as a parent. Which I am highly appreciative of because being happy in my work place and knowing that my daughter is safe and happy where she spends her day is extremely important to me. My daughter recently turned 2 and they have been working on potty training with her which helps the transition into potty training at home as well. Her language has also developed quite a bit in the last few months she's coming home singing songs from circle and talking about things she's learned that day (we have been getting a daily sheet showing us what curriculum has been covered each day which her dad and I find helpful with knowing exactly what she is doing each day.) Her dad and I both have the parent app and it's nice to see pictures and updates on her potty training, snack, lunch, and nap so we know how her day is going! My daughter loves all the teachers there! We loved having Ms. Bri when she was in the toddler class room. My daughter loves Ms. Cassondra and Ms. Querri they always make a point to ease her morning transition into school or make her smile! We love our job and our school

Just a very bad experience over all. My child got sick for 3 weeks straight, she is still sick and…read moreshe's only been there 5 weeks. Many times when I picked her up her face was dirty since she's had runny nose and no one bothered to clean her up. My child is sick and I told them I need to remove her out of the program they still force me to pay 2 weeks withdraw period and of course my child could not be there for the last whole week due to high fever and coughing so much that she would throw up many times and that last week cost us $500 for nothing. Opps, sorry your child got sick, you still need to pay us no matter what. And the funny thing is they ignored me when I asked for the final number on my last bill, 3 days later, after I sent couple emails and text messages they finally gave me a number and guess what the experience not bad enough so they go ahead and charged me extra $200 on top of what I have to pay on my last bill. The director told me they will return the money they overcharged me back and a week already still see nothing. So of course I have to email back and forth for many times, now they told me it takes up to 6 weeks for it to get the money they overcharge me back. They are very fast to enroll you in to get your money but when there is a problem they will talk around but no action. Plus the whole time she was in the program I received 0 pictures of her and the activities feed update was really bad and delay all the time. Anyway it is really "the learning experience" for my family after all.
