From our play-based learning philosophy to our Enlightened Eats Nutrition Program, we've built a safe and harmonious environment where children can learn from each other, from the natural world, and from the dedicated teachers who are here to care for them. We ask three things of the little ones who make up our student body: Be safe, kind, and clean. That's the basis of our philosophy, called Enlightened Discipline, and it informs our holistic approach to early childhood education.

Samantha B. I dont play games with people on yelp sweetie. Im grown ok, so im not about to write a review throwing subliminal message's, im gonna address you directly. By reading your review, i know that you were talking about me. I dont know who you are, never met u a day in my life. I dont have a picture up for u to identify me, and even if i did, u still wouldn't know who i am. So why do you feel the need to write a review mentioning a situation you weren't around to witness? Especially when you weren't given the full story. If the teacher, who felt the need to talk to you (twisting) the story, wants to have a conversation about what really happened. She has my number. Also, im not the only parent who has had issues with this center, most of the complaints are about melanie, so again maybe melanie can call me (the parent of the child that was taken out of care) if that makes her more comfortable, since she wasn't interested in talking in person. If u personally have a good review about this place, then go right ahead and post it, but dont come on here trying to throw shade boo boo. This isn't the place for all that. I have every right to review and tell my experience with the buisness. You dont have any right trying to tell me what my truth is and what i should amd shouldn't be doing, unless you want to come pay these bills and put food in my refrigerator. So yea, thank u and have a blessed day, whoever you are smh.

My daughter has told me in numerous occasions that the teachers are mean to the kids, some times yelling @ them and even grabbing some of the kids arms in an aggressive manner making the kids cry, when they wouldn't go to sleep (nap time) and in other situations. I was also told that some of the little boys would often pull their pants down as well as other kids in the class room. When i asked my child where were the teachers, she would would tell me that they were either outside, in the kitchen, or in one of the other rooms. To me that is not ok, and if my child is telling me the same story everyday, im going to believe her point blank period. Anyway's back to the teacher's being mean to the kids. I have personally witnessed melanie the director yelling@ the kids in the morning. Not only that but the day i decided to take my child out due to what she was telling me, including one of the teacher's, i think her name is shandell yelling@ my child which i witnessed that day to the point of tears. I sat down with melanie and told her my concerns, she sat right up in mine and my neighbors face and pretty much called my child a liar. She was very rude, and didn't try to rectify the issue so i walked out. I dont understand how u could be a director, or teacher working with kids and the public. And be so unprofessional and out right mean, it's crazy. Anyway's to add to this, when i got home, i did something i should've done before i placed my child into this preschool, and that was i looked this place up and saw reviews and even something where this place was investigated a few times for some of the very issues i just listed. I also spoke with a few ppl in my area, and they all have not so good things to say about this establishment. Im in the process of talking to some ppl about the issues I've encountered here. Nobody has the right to mistreat kids, if u don't like your job quit, simple as that.

My son Branden has attended this school since he was about 9 months old ! He LOVES IT ! the teachers Linda and Melanie are AWSOME ! I love them and not to mention Julie is so amazing for running such an AWSOME daycare . I'm sad it's almost time for my son to leave and attend kindergarten :( they are hands on and very passionate about the children. Even when I moved out of the area I still drove 15- 20 mins so my son can attend daycare here ! They have worked with me financially over the years and really helped me out a lot . I appreciate everything these teachers have done for Branden and I'm confident he will adapt well to kindergarten all thanks to these guys ! LOVE YOU GUYS !! YOUR THE BEST !

I have not only visited this facility for years, but I have also spent time around the owner who has cared for my children at various ages/stages. I have NEVER been around a child care provider/teacher, even staff, that was more passionate about attending to not only the physical needs of children but attending to their hearts, emotional needs and their need to feel so connected, included, and esteemed. Amazing childcare, amazing and well- trained staff people. Children are safe, clean, and so cared for there.
