    Cadence Academy Preschool

    I have had at least one child in care of this school since 2018. Up until the last 1.5yrs, we have…read morebeen satisfied with the care Cadence (Previously Creative Minds) provided. Unfortunately, due to the mass staff exodus the Pre-K program was cut with little notice and we were left with no child care for this entire summer. From Jan-May of this year we had numerous late night emails asking us to not bring our infant in for class, making it very difficult for my husband to work and for me to see scheduled patients. From my perspective, this is a salary issue. Employees at Cadence are potentially not being paid enough and are leaving for other jobs. Teacher Nancy, Chelsea, Zita and Liz, dozens of our kids miss you and will forever be grateful to you for sticking it out as long as you could. The food is another aspect that needs to be addressed immediately. I hope they are no longer serving bowls of corn (as seen in my child's photo on google review) or the ever popular "vegan meat balls" that the kids would frown at, weekly. I want to say Thank you to Teacher Mia and Vicki who made us stay as long as we did and who you should feel confident leaving your children with. Cadence, we have filled out plenty of surveys with the same info, please feel free to reach out to myself of my husband with helpful feedback.

    HORRIBLE! I would not trust this daycare center for my child or anyone else's child. Go somewhere…read morethat truly cares about providing high quality personalized childcare to your child. I couldn't help but feel like the childcare staff did not know or did not care about what they were doing. Child hated it and we hated it. There were signs that the child was neglected in various ways. At pickup, child's nose was often crusty from crying and almost never wiped clean. Child's mouth was also not cleaned and frequently dirty from food; this caused a long-term rash\skin irritation\dermatitis around child's mouth. There were times the child's bottom was really red from harsh scrubbing; this indicates that a fecal diaper had dried and crusted after a long period of time of not being changed and they were scrubbing aggressively to get fecal matter off. Child did not seem to be happy in any picture provided. Child strongly indicated that they did not want to be there before and after every single day. After that daycare, child was constantly frightened of other kids being nearby. While attending, child had frequent night terrors and would not sleep well at night. Seems to be quantity over quality at this daycare. Choose anywhere else to care for your precious child! They will frequently state that the child 'ate all' of a meal or snack, but I have a difficult time believing that that is true. Our child does not 'eat all'. Also, I once received an update that the child 'ate all' of a snack, then walked in, and the snack was sitting untouched in front of the child. I took the snack home and took a picture of it. With every interaction, you get this awful sense that the bubbly Director will say anything to trick you into believing everything is wonderful or that she will take care of your issues. Director will say "Your child is doing well and/or child is bonding with so and so", but it is presumably to placate the parent. Repeatedly said they provide 2-6 pictures per day of your child - only one picture of child provided in the first week. ~5 pictures were provided over the next two weeks. The 2-6 pictures of child per day were not provided, even after complaining repeatedly. I am fairly certain other pictures were taken of child in the first week, but they were likely deleted and not shown to us. The app they use is complete trash - KidReports app has a 2.0 of 5.0 rating on Google Play. Did they use this horribly rated app because it was the cheapest option? Didn't have access to app for five days, even after complaining every day - it was not important for the parents to know anything about their child in the first week apparently. There was practically zero personalized communication about child well-being in the first week. We canceled after the first week, but they lock you into two additional weeks with their contract. They do not even ask why you are leaving. It does not seem to be important for them to improve what is wrong. Childcare staff rotate constantly - I saw someone different in the room frequently. The daycare staff rarely tried to make me and the child feel welcome; often, I would not know how to hand off my distraught child. They hired four new people at roughly the same time - probably a sign of staffing issues. One of the staff they hired is 20 years old; they do not seem professionally experienced. While the director was seemingly out, I overheard daycare admin staff telling the children caregivers what to do, and how to wake up the children from nap. This seriously confused me. Shouldn't the children caregivers know what to do? Are the caregivers that inexperienced/inept? Are your children truly in good hands behind closed doors? That same day, I picked up at 3:50 pm; as far as I could tell, the child did not have an afternoon snack by that time. Due to many reasons, I do not trust leaving my child or any other child in this place. Who knows what actually occurs here. I will never bring my child to another daycare center after this nightmare!

    I was excited to send my child to a Montessori school for the summer and would consider enrolling…read morefor next year. Unfortunately, I was disappointed because I didn't see hardly 'montessori' learning in the class. Not sure if it's just for the summer or it's how they operate during the school year. Frankly, I found her old preschool to be better than this Montessori school. I still believe in Montessori method of learning but the "Montessori" word has be thrown out so easily and quality of "montessori' is not regulated. Just Beware to parents who are interested in sending their kids to a Montessori school. Ask a lot of questions. They charged a lot, but I feel my kid didn't get much out of it. In 3 hours my kid was in school, they went outside to play 2 times, watched a movie, and lunch. Everytime I picked up my kid it was usually a free quiet time, but none of the kids there did Montessori activities. they were reading books. Not that reading books is bad, but I was hoping the kids were more exposed to Montessori learning. According to my kid, they didn't have story time, and singing. After experiencing this, I decided to send my kid back to her old preschool which we loved so much.

    My daughter has been going to this preschool since June 2009 and she loves it. The teachers are…read moreall very friendly, kind, and energetic, and the facility has lots of mind-engaging, learning activities in addition to the usual gamut of toys and outdoor play structures. I like that the teachers give me plenty of feedback about my daughter's day, how she napped, who she is friends with, what they are learning, etc. This is also one of the least expensive programs in the area, especially for a Montessori school. There are cheaper programs but they are NOT schools, they are just daycares. I want my kid to actually LEARN something!
