This place is a home away from home! My daughter has been here since she was barely a year old. Now she will be 4 in and has one more year here until she goes to big girl school at 5! And man can I tell you how glad I am that I found this daycare. This place is not only a place I trust (especially with my childhood growing up in foster care), but it's a place my daughter is learning so much at! Hey have taught her sign language and how to treat other people. They let her express her voice and be the girly girl or tomboy she wants to be!!! The staff have always been patient with not only my child but with other children that you know takes a whole other level of love and patience to work with them!! You know those kids! . This place has done more for me and daughter then I could have done alone!!! Being a single mom is difficult, and when dad isn't really there to step in, you can depend on YBR to be open from 6-6:30 ready to teach, love, support, and tire them out for bed!!! From one parent to another, you can't go wrong here! It's a family! read more

I love the staff here and the peace of mind I get knowing my son is being well taken care of while I'm working. He comes home with only good things to say about his time here at Yellow Brick Road Preschool. Keep doing what you're doing staff ! read more

The team at Yellow Brick Road has always gone Above & Beyond to be kind and patient with my boys. I always feel like my kids are having fun and are safe there. also, they are very affordable compared to other places that do not provide half as much support and nutrition. My little one absolutely loves his lunch is there! read more

My son has been going here part-time for about a year and it's been a great experience for us. The staff and teachers are caring and they are flexible with the schedule when we may need to switch days. Shannon and Kathy are both extremely helpful and willing to chat about any questions or concerns that come up. You won't find a better value for the price and location! read more

YBR is always caring. My daughter has been coming here since she was 6 months old. They support and encourage my daughter from then to now.

I highly recommend this day care center to any parent or guardian looking for a safe, stimulating, and loving environment for their child. My nephew's happiness and excitement every day speak volumes about the incredible work the teachers do. Thank you to the entire staff for making a positive difference in his life! read more

The distance of this daycare to my job is what got me to walk in the doors. The teachers and environment is what's kept me. My daughter was a year and half when she started going here and I am forever grateful to Ms. Emi, who made both mine and my daughters transition into Daycare life as smooth as possible. Ms. Kathy is always good for an enlightening conversation and a warm hug for the littles! There is new leadership and it is very apparent they are trying to update and modify the location to be something even better kids and parents. Seeing my daughter thrive and make new friends over time has been so rewarding. My youngest is attending here as well and I am excited to see all the new things she learns as she grows. read more

If you're looking for a trustworthy daycare I'd suggest looking for another one than this, my son has been in this daycare for only as little as two weeks and I myself was already noticing some things. The daycare doesn't give you updates of your kids throughout the day unless you ask about them and in person asking how my son did that day their response were very dry just by saying "oh he was good" and not what he learned or what he tried eating or any incidents that might've happened. I notice my son was very dehydrated as well picking him up instantly crying for his bottle. And also seems like they're outside all day from morning to lunch to afternoon. When I would go to pick up my son he was very dirty, he had dirt all over his cheeks and hands. My son didn't seem to enjoy being there. I feel as though the teachers didn't seem to give enough attention to the children. I'd suggest looking elsewhere.. read more

This has been a great place for our daughter. She started off in the baby room and is now in the one year old room. She looks forward to going there every morning. read more

I wouldn't recommend, at times I would notice my child wouldn't have his diaper changed & everything in the diaper bag would remain the same as I left it. I would find wood chips in his jacket & diaper. It also didn't help that he was dirty every time I went to pick him up. An incident occurred when he was eating woods chips & I asked mychild to take it out his mouth & he did. The teacher response was " oh its okay they're good for him to help build his immune system". Which is incorrect. Wouldn't recommend THERES OTHER PLACES THATLL DO BETTER. read more

My son started off in the baby room. As a first time mom I was scared to leave him but they have shown nothing but care, kindness and compassion. My son is now 1 and half and he loves going to school. He waves to Miss Shannon, Miss Amy and all he's teachers and friends. He's always so happy to be there! read more

We have enrolled our son at YBR for about a year now and we could not be happier in our choice to bring him here. Everyone is helpful, knowledgeable and loves our son. The director Shannon always has her door open and is open to feedback, suggestions and gives us insight into our son on a daily basis. Miss Kim and Miss Kathy are amazing and are always there to greet us and ensure classes are supervised and running smoothly. The teachers in my son's class are amazing, genuinely care about him and are always communicating with us about his days at YBR. We especially love Miss Maria, who has been my son's teacher since we enrolled. She is always creative in her ideas about how to continue my son's education, both academically and socially. read more

I'm updating my review to give one star for the owners' commitment to safety. In spite of being promised that a solution for the wide-open door would be in place by summer 2018, the security issue still persists. I am no longer comfortable leaving my daughters at this center and we are moving elsewhere. I could never forgive myself if the unspeakable happened due to the lack of security... read more

I brought my daughter there and she loved it! Was always happy when I picked her up.. The staff is very caring and assertive to kids needs. The Director Shannon is very professional and is attentive to everyone's needs and worries... I would recommend this daycare to anyone read more

I went in for a tour as I was looking for a new school for my son. I pulled in and seen the playground from the parking lot, it looked pretty old & not maintained. I brushed it off as I was optimistic in what else they had to offer. prior to my visit I was told there was some remodeling going on, I walked in and the lobby had different paint swatches on the wall, can't you swatch somewhere besides your front entrance? Anyways the woman greeted me, and to be completely honest her overall appearance wasn't very impressionable. She escorted me to the 3 yr old class room where my son would be and their classroom doors reminded me of a detention center with the tiny window & medal plate at the bottom of the door. I was then introduced to the teacher who was just sitting at the table with some kids in sweat pants & a sweat shirt. Like seriously? To me the teacher in the classroom looked to be one who doesn't like to be too bothered. After the quick glance of the room I was then walked back to the lobby wasn't shown anything else within the daycare. I was asked to fill out some information, while doing so I see a employee making copies walking around with no shoes on. The whole place needs some warmth, uniforms, and professionalism. First impressions are everything and I was not impressed. I left happy to know I would not be leaving my son there. read more

I've been looking for a preschool for my four year old, and stopped in today to check out this school, since the reviews are good and it is close to my house. When I arrived, I immediately noticed that there was no lock on the front door, anyone can just walk in. Went in, no one was up front. There was also no security to keep anyone from getting in any further. I could hear children very nearby, and I could see the door to the twos room right in front of me. We waited about 5 minutes and never saw anyone. We left. I had high hopes and wanted to give this school a try, but it looks like this wouldn't work. read more

I absolutely 100% endorse this day care for anyone needing a home away from home for their child(ren). My daughter, now 21, attended this day care over 10 years ago until she was 12 years old, when she became too "old" to keep going lol. I am now taking care of her son, my Grandson, and I enrolled him at Yellow Brick Road. The staff are just as wonderful all these years, and many new faces, later. I go out of my way to bring my Grandson to this day care, because it is worth my piece of mind knowing how well he will be cared for and loved by the staff. read more

I had the pleasure of bringing my child into this preschool and meeting the director Shannon. She was professional and gave us the grand tour. Rates were reasonable as I work downtown and its a quick pickup and drop off. My daughter seems to like it and asks when are we going back there each night. Thumbs up! read more

My child has been attending YBR since June of 2018. I initially changed schools due to location. I worked down the street from this school and out of all the reviews I had viewed, YBR showed to be the best in my price range. I was very satisfied with my initial interview with Ms. Kim and Ms. Danika (who is no longer there unfortunately) . At our previous school, I was starting to have issues due to them not being able to "handle" my childs behaviors. It appeared that they were not willing to work with my child and I became uncomfortable with how things were being handled. When switching to YBR, not only did my son acclimate very quickly, I found that he really liked the staff and his "behaviors" disappeared! Of course every child is going to have their days, but in the course of our year at YBR, my child made so many friends and grew very attached to Mr. Josh, Ms. Michelle, Ms. Kim, Ms. Cathy, and Ms. Shannon. Yes, as a few of these other reviews stated, there is a new employee every few months but what school doesn't have turn around? There are many faces that have been at YBR for years and many students that have as well. That is what I think I enjoyed most, that I can could on certain staff being there for my son and my son got to go to school with the same group of friends everyday. I gave 4 stars primarily because I think that there could be improvements structurally, but would fall completely on the owners hands (not the fault of the staff that work there). In regards to Ms. Wendy, I personally did not witness what another wrote about her, however everytime I picked up my child from her classroom (about 2 days out of the week), all the children were always working on some kind of fun project and she was always taking time to explain to the children. Instead of saying No, she would explain why something shouldn't be done a certain way or oposite. I thought so highly of this becuase this is what helps the children learn. The children were always calm and really listened to her. I also took time to observe her on several occations becasue I was curious about her. I took time to compliment her to the Director on one occation and took time to ask her about herself on another followed by a compliment. Just thought I'd share my personal experience about her :) Thank you YBR for a wonderful year! We will never forget you! read more

My daughter loves it at yellow brick. There are a lot of kids in each room , but the teachers manage it well and the children actually seem to genuinely have fun playing with each other. They are currently doing some remodeling. The location is great and the price is great. Only dislike is that there is no key pad on the front door, but that is suppose to be changing with the remodel. As for that lady Kristy and her comment she is a sick person. I had to investigate the situation since that is a serious accusation to make about a pedophile and my daughter attending, I even asked her for additional info, her story doesn't check out at all. The name of the guy she gave me and story she gave me don't match up at all. Yellow brick filed a police report which they showed me. Yelp does a disservice allowing baseless comments like that that freak parents out. Kristy you disgust me. read more

My daughter has been attending YBR since Jul 2017. Starting off was rough because it was the first daycare center she attended. Shannon was very welcoming and understanding of a lot . I went through the typical phase of a new mother sending her child to daycare phase I would say. For the most part the teachers were much like family . During our two years here the turnover rate has been up and down . While very few has left a lasting impression with my child and family and those include Ms. Kim, Ms.Kathy ,Maria, Brooke, and Jamylah. In this last year it's been very uncomfortable bringing my child here and it's the reason we have now relocated to a much better structured and settle environment for my child. I started to notice children cursing upon dropping her off and when it was brought up to the office it was almost like an "oh that's his home environment and it's not much we can do" type of response. Well that doesn't work for me because my child was brought home one day from school and caught repeating those very same words that I've reported the little boy saying which was a concern. I don't send my kid to school to learn things of that nature and it should have been unacceptable to even allow it around other children. Aside from the different illnesses she's been left sick with within the last 2 years, yet to this day I still walk in and there are sick children being allowed in daycare. I have had several issues with Shannon diagnosing my child with "asthma" and documenting her speech disorder as behavioral when I had a sit down with her after working with a SPEECH therapist. I have literally taken off work to provide documentation from my child's PCP to prove Shannon the " MD" incorrect.  She was coming home with BITE MARKS & PINCH MARKS & no one could tell me why or where they were coming from . Which means NO INCIDENT reports were being made . The list goes on ! My latest issue and icing on the cake has been this latest member to YBR Miss Wendy. From the time she's started there has been nothing but issues with this woman. I have watched how she interacts and speaks to the children when I'm picking mines up and it bothers me . Again, this has been brought to the schools attention as well and their response is " she's worked here before she is good with the kids". Maybe my image and quality is different based on others , but when I'm seeing her holding a child's arm as she's walking the playground (dragging) him that's not a good teacher to me. As I have been observing her something seems a bit off about her to me . I have had several run ins with how she speaks and reports on my child. Just last Friday my daughter was left out of a project for the SECOND time that was created by Wendy. I will not continue to allow my child to feel left out of classroom projects due to Wendy's feelings towards her . I've bit my tongue long enough because my child had to return back until we found her a new school . I ask for daily reports EVERY day to help with talking with my child about her day , do you think I receive them ?? NO !! My last straw with this Wendy character was her saying to me " I don't half understand what she (my child) is saying to me half the time ... AS A TEACHER YOU DUMB BROAD, ASK QUESTIONS AND USE YOUR GREAT TEACHER SKILLS TO TALK TO HER AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS SHE'S TRYING TO TELL YOU. But maybe that's just something a normal person with common sense would do. Something is strange with Wendy and I started to believe maybe it was just me until 2 others observed and stated that they felt the same . I no longer felt comfortable leaving my child in the care of this woman and YBR has slowly but surely become just not the place I would want my child spending her day. Maybe it was as she got older they could no longer provide what she needed, but they are very unorganized, no type of structure, kids hitting and fighting on each other while Mr. Josh stands there CLUELESS as ever, poor guy. Strong believer in getting what you pay for after our time here. If you need an affordable DAYCARE of course this is the place, but if you're looking for a QUALITY EDUCATIONAL center this is NOT the place to go....if I could give zero stars , at this point I would !!u read more

I have absolutely great things to say about this place. My daughter seemed to have loved all of the time that she spent there and the quality of learning was beyond my expectations. I would love to say that it all stems from the brain that I passed down to her but I wouldn't be telling the full truth. She would sing us songs, tell us about the books that they would read, starting writing me letters soon after she turned four years old (not just writing her name), and was starting to figure out math concepts (mostly addition but did know a little subtraction). I definitely think that Yellow Brick instilled the necessary tools for my little girl to not only be "kindergarten ready" but to be ahead of the game. Also, the tuition is very reasonable if not the lowest in the area. Her mother and I work downtown and the location was very convenient. Unfortunately, kids grow up and move on to different things, so summer vacation.... here we come then on to big kids school next year! Thank you Yellow Brick for all that you did to assist in raising our little amazing Kota! read more

"LOCK IN FRONT DOOR"should no one be able to just walk in to a preschool full of children.... security should be their #1 priority ....The director shannon is a very profesional person you can see that she cares genuinly in her demeanor so friendly and i feel confertable with the assistant deborah too....... great place to bring your kids.... all the staff is amazing thanks.... yellow stone PRESCHOOL read more

I love this preschool staff is always happy and in a good mood witch makes me feel that my child will be taken care of while I'm at work. The director is understanding and runs a qualifying team. Thank you Yellow brick road for making me feel at peace when I'm away from my baby. :) read more
